Okay.
Let's get to the problem.
Button mashing. In Sonic Unleashed, at a certain point you must press X 60 times in... approximately 12 seconds. Oh well. I use a 360 controller. Pretty hard, right? It kills your fingers, blah blah blah. Oh, wait. Didn't tell you the deal. I'm left handed. I tried almost every possible tactic and none worked. Can someone help me? D:

That's over five taps per second. That's a pretty tough gig there...

Can you skip that part?

How far ahead is this. I haven't cleared much more then the first Werehog level. So I have experienced countless with mashing on the buttons. But can't you attempt mixing up some combos then using the same pattern always.
It can turn quite repetitive.

Nevertheless I haven't made it far so I can't probably help you more then that.

Sadly, no. But if I make it through that, I win the game.
Bowie reccomended me to stock on lives in the previous levels, so I am going to follow his advice so far. But some tips on the actual button mashing would be nice. :D

it is way too cold for this
Flip the controller so that the buttons are on the left side and mash X. Use your best finger, like Sonitrex said.

Definitely stock up on lives. Stock 'em like there's no tomorrow. If you think you have enough, get five more.

This is the best I can come up with. P: Good luck.

I have Unleashed for 360 and Wii. Damn, that is HARD! With the Wii motes, you just shake them.....ANYWAYS!

With the button pushing, is it battling a Dark Gaia boss? Also, are you sure you have to press it 60 times in 12 seconds? That seems a bit extreme for a video game.

Sadly I am only at Eggmanland first Were-Hog level, but this sounds hard.(Not stuck, just not in the mood to play after the time attack level, UGH!)

I don't know where I'm going.
I don't remember this on the Wii, so guessing it's on the 360, I would say you should use your best finger. Maybe get a friend who did this already?

And, just out of curiosity, at what part do you need to button mash like this?

Oh. So this isn't when Sonic is to hit the eyes or when you box with Gaia Colusses...
So, I'm guessing when you're Super Sonic, and you're going for a center eye or something, you have to press that button 60 times in 12 seconds....
Well, my best finger is my right pointer finger. And since you're left handed, I guess you would have to hit it with your left pointer finger? Set the controller on in front of you, and just press it.

I guess this is the only thing you can do, or just keep going at it. You'll get it eventually.

Not to be rude or anything, but I managed to do it in my first try XD and all I can say is, if your sitting down, try standing up or something. It always helps me with button mashing or action chains.

I agree with Ryan. OR if you get frustrated, this is what I do. I give the console a break, eat my fave food, which is an apple with peanut butter.And just relax and go at it again.

Reconfigure the controls temporarily? That's another good idea; if a control set doesn't work for me, I either do that or declare the game a blaspemy against nature and cast Smite Evil on it.

But ah... the second option probably ain't the best way to go about things in your case.

There aren't any buttons on the left side of the controller. xP
Also, I can't with 360 games.

But thanks very much for your advice, guys. ^^

EDIT: GUYS! I MADE IT!
I MADE IT! A WINNAR IS ME!
Basically, I stocked up 47 lives.
At the fatal QTE, I put the controller on the floor...
And started tapping like crazy with my left pointer finger.
It worked! At less of a second left, I made it!
Hold on.
Wanna know the hyrony?
In total... I LOST JUST ONE LIFE. xD
Thanks guys. Thanks everyone.
