Vertical Were-Hammer

The Vertical Were-Hammer is one of the Straight Attack Skills used by Sonic the Werehog in the PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 version of Sonic Unleashed. When using this move, Sonic throws a combo of punch before jumping up and launching a vertical punch into the ground.

Description
When performing this move, Sonic first performs the Were-Hammer. After that, Sonic jumps high into the air, from where he then enlarges his right fist and throws it directly and vertically into the ground in a powerful punch, with the impact being powerful enough to knock nearby opponent(s) into the air.

The Vertical Were-Hammer is unlocked in the game when Sonic the Werehog's Combat parameter reaches level 20. To perform the Vertical Were-Hammer in gameplay, the player must press the buttons on the Xbox 360 version, or the buttons on the PS3 versions, in succession. In gameplay, the final part of the Vertical Were-Hammer knocks the opponent(s) into the air, allowing the player to attack the airborne enemies with Aerial attacks.
