SONIC UNLEASHED

Clear all ranks of the Time, Battle, and Ring Day missions as well as all ranks of the Time and Survival Night missions on Cool Edge.

—Day Advice—
This achievement is more annoying than difficult because you need to clear the stage without dying. The final bobsled section of the level will make the rings missions difficult, but the timed missions are remarkably easy. For the battle mission, take it slow on the non-bobsled sections and kill everything you come across so that you could make it through those final portions of the level with less stress. I have posted a great video of @Neatfreax completing the timed section. I recommend taking the shortcut that this person takes in the second 3D section (boost left) as well as the wall jump through the rainbow ring near the end. Don’t bother with the drifting trick that this person takes. It does get you there faster, but it’s not necessary. I completed the mission with 4 seconds to spare with my speed and ring energy both at level 3.


—Night Advice—
An easy level that perfectly incapsulates the frustratingly mindless trend that Sonic Team has been using to make modern games more difficult over time: an over reliance on instant-kill death pits. The trials themselves are simple, but there are a lot of sections where you will probably die because of random cheapness. My recommendation is that you take it slow on the platforming bits and skip as many battles as possible as they are just wastes of time (you’re probably going to need to redo this section a lot more because of death falls anyways). I have posted a great video of @Neatfreax completing the timed section. The requirements for completion are easy, but the platforming is…arduous.
