Egg Beetle

The Egg Beetle, piloted by Dr. Eggman, is the first boss of Sonic Unleashed, fought in daytime as Sonic the Hedgehog. Despite its name, it looks more arachnid than beetle. Its primary attacks include firing missiles, mines and even snapping with flame-covered claws. Sonic must boost his way until he gets enough distance that the Egg Beetle rears back to snap. Boost again to smack the beetle backward, and if your Boost Energy is filled enough, you can ram into the Egg Beetle for a total of 3 hits before it gets back in position.
