Dark Gaia Force, from the Xbox 360 /PlayStation 3 version of Sonic Unleashed .
Dark Gaia Force (ダークガイアフォース , Dāku Gaia Fōsu ? ) appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series . It is essentially the negative energy that is generated in the world and that Dark Gaia can manipulate.. In gameplay, Sonic the Werehog can absorb the Dark Gaia Force for various effects and game mechanics.
Description [ ]
In the Xbox 360 /PlayStation 3 version of Sonic Unleashed , the Dark Gaia Force appears as small energy orbs with a purple and white shade. In the Wii /PlayStation 2 version of the game however, it comes in three types called "Orbs," which are colored either green, blue or red.
Overview [ ]
Dark Gaia Force can only be found in the game's nighttime stages. In the Xbox 360 /PlayStation 3 version of Sonic Unleashed , Dark Gaia Force is obtained by either defeating enemies or destroying objects in the Action Stages: When it is released, Sonic automatically absorbs it. The amount of Dark Gaia Force is proportional to the energy orbs' size; the larger the Dark Gaia Force orbs are, the more Dark Gaia Force the player gets. Equally, the tougher the enemy is, the more Dark Gaia Force it releases. In this version of Sonic Unleashed , the Dark Gaia Force is specifically used to fill up the Unleashed Gauge .
In the Wii /PlayStation 2 version of Sonic Unleashed , the game's three types of Dark Gaia Force can be obtained by defeating enemies, destroying objects or opening Item Boxes in the Stages, though some enemies only release specific types of Dark Gaia Force, while objects and Item Boxes only release red and blue Dark Gaia Force. When released, the Dark Gaia Force is automatically absorbed by Sonic. Each type of Dark Gaia Force has a specific purpose: Blue Orbs fill up the Unleashed Gauge , green Orbs restore the Life Gauge , and red Orbs add to Sonic's Experience Points amount, which can used at the Orb Result screen to level up Sonic, and also factor into his Rank at the end of each stage.
Trivia [ ]
In the Xbox 360 /PlayStation 3 version of Sonic Unleashed , Chip was the one who came up with the name for the Dark Gaia Force.[1]
The name was invented by Chip when he had no memory, so the name "Dark Gaia Force" may not be literal.
In the game it is explained that Dark Gaia does not control a special type of energy, but rather limits himself to exerting his dominion over the negativity of the world and converting it into power.
This also explains why Sonic the Werehog can absorb the power of Dark Gaia's minions even though, according to the game itself, Sonic's transformation was not the result of the dark entity.
