WOW that game looks exactly like Sonic Adventure 2 from the graphics to the levels. The only difference is you play as Shadow for the whole game and for some god awful reason you get a 9 to bust a cap in da asses you yo enemies

........I LIKE his rocket shoes. >.>

((Also theyve got his eye lids colored wrong. >.> They're black, not the color of his muzzle.))

I have that magazine, and judging by things they say elsewhere in the mag, they weren't particularly impressed either, plusit's only anticipated to receive around 80%.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 05-01-2005, 01:40 PM

I dunno, part of me is thinking the game has a shot.

Hannah, I can play the sucker at E3 and tell you what it's like first hand when I get back. Which version do you want me to use? (GCN, xbox, PS2)

*Hannah* · 05-01-2005, 01:49 PM

Haha that'd be great TMB. It'd be nice if you could try the GC version.. it's the only system I have. XD

*The Stryker* · 05-01-2005, 08:43 PM

Still...His Bad-assity kills me...the way he's a 2 dimensional character and how his graphics are outdated! Wow...I've gotta buy this game...

(Im gonna have to play it anyway cuz my GF is F*cking In love with any and All Sonic Games...Im still in the dog house for saying Sonic Heroes was a Piece of crap)

愛 · 05-01-2005, 08:53 PM

I still don't see what's so great about Shadow.

*Spitfire* · 05-01-2005, 08:56 PM

He's like an actually COOL Sonic character

I dont know he looks cool I guess but he's never done anything so great I mean he's bascially Sonic with a different color scheme and longer hair

**Barkworm** · 05-01-2005, 09:43 PM

The gameplay seems to be lame, the main character is lame and the graphics... they suck! What is Sega thinking?

*The Stryker* · 05-01-2005, 10:04 PM

Sega has gone down the tubes..and quick that sega classics thing they released earlier this year was Terrible

Now now, please Hannah, get a hold of yourself and stop posting useless stuff. We all know you have an unhealthy obsession with a character you either love or hate, but you don't need to tell us everyday. We know that already.

Are people getting the meaning despite that "obvious" flaw in Shadow's characterization? Yes, I think we do, so that post was rather useless.

*DrSpengler* · 05-02-2005, 09:20 AM

Shadow never struck me as such a great character. His story in SA2 was pretty good, but they probably should have left him dead and not resurrected him. His sacrifice would've had more meaning, anyway. He's not an awful character, he's just not very interesting. As far as evil Sonics go, I prefer Metal Sonic. He has just about as much characterization as Shadow, but he looks cooler.

Looking at the game itself, it might be cool to expand the Sonic universe a little bit, but it's not what I want out of a new Sonic title.

The thing that made the sidescrollers so fun was the level design. You had multiple paths you could take, secrets hidden cleverly throughout the level, special zones, power-ups, etc.

The level designs in the recent 3D titles are pretty cut and dry. It's like a race track, no real options.

Also, when I play as Tails I don't want to pilot a mech and when I play as Knuckles I don't want to hunt for treasure. Another great thing about the old level design was that different paths utilized the different skills of the characters, and you could select which character you wanted to play through that level; giving the games enormous replay value.

The characters aren't so much the problem. I liked Sonic's set of new abilities in the adventure titles, and the revamps of his old powers as well. It's just the levels that could use some work.

Heroes was fun, but still not what I was looking for. Anyway, my two cents. I won't make a final judgement on Shadow's game until I've played it.

*Hannah* · 05-02-2005, 11:34 AM

..Dude, you guys are so uptight here. I wasn't being serious.. wtf? o.O

Anywho, I haven't really liked most of the recent sonic games. The main reason I liked SA2 was because of Shadow. ^__^ In my opinion, Heroes sucked. It was like, the worst sonic game I ever played. And the second worst overall game ever, only because of Shadow and how much more sucky monkeyball is. XD Sonic Battle was okay, while I had it. I kinda lost it in a parking lot or something.
Yeah, back to SA2. I definately did not like having to be in a robot thing for tails and robotnik. It would have been SO much cooler to waddle around as robotnmik without the robot. XD And I missed flying as tails, too. Searcing for emeralds as knuckles/rouge was boring at times though. It was cool for a first timer in SA, but that was enough.

^.^

*The Stryker* · 05-02-2005, 08:22 PM

SA2 was Ruined by shaky writing and characters that had become more flat when they went 3D. the Added roster didn't help either.

Who the hell cares about Rogue or however her name is spelled or Shadow? SA2 was like the later seasons of the Brady Bunch, They added an annoying character to try and improve things but failed...badly

SEGA!

*DrSpengler* · 05-02-2005, 08:29 PM

The SA2 story was greatly improved in the cartoon version, and the new characters were a lot less annoying.

There were a lot of problems with the 3D Sonic games, and I already listed what I want. Honestly, I think the new characters have potential to be a good addition to the Sonic universe, they just need a good game to go along with them.
