Shadow the Hedgehog (2005)
Genres:Adventure, Platform, Shooter
Themes:Action, Science fiction
Game modes:Single player, Split screen
Story:The world is in peril as forces, both good and evil, make a play for the powerful Chaos Emeralds. In Shadow the Hedgehog, you can control Shadow and choose which side to fight for. This 3D platformer lets you use weapons, vehicles, environmental objects, and time and space manipulation to combat your foes.
Although it is a 3D platform game as with the more recent Sonic Adventure games, the game's levels each feature up to three different missions (Hero, Dark, Normal) that the player may choose to complete. The game's plot depends on which mission is completed as well as subsequent playable levels. The game stars Shadow the Hedgehog and his quest to recover his memory, a goal he has been pursuing since his debut in Sonic Adventure 2, while an evil alien race known as the Black Arms is invading the planet.Show more

Shadow the Hedgehog is a fairly good game! Fun movement and mechanics, and some unique stories to it. It's a little difficult, but it feels like a proper successors to heroes.
This game and Sonic Unleashed deserves a proper PC port.
is it a masterpiece? no. Is it the best sonic game in the catalogue? No. Is it my favorite sonic game of all time? absolutely. it sparked a middleschool hyperfixation in me so intense it actually fixed some self esteem issues. I spent so much time playing this game that i accidentally learned speedrun strats while A ranking the unlockable hard mode. I attempted to beat its actual 300+ endings, but after getting around halfway got burned out and let it rest. i'd love to see it be preserved and be available outside of roms (which tend to disappear) not to mention the modding potential.
This is such a great game! I have a great time going through each of its stages, the level design is great and the guns are really fun to use!
It's basically Sonic (Shadow) with guns! You go fast, homing attack, spindash, but you can also carry a gatling gun twice your size!!
I want this game to be preserved and for more people to be able to check it!
A game from my own childhood, one i loved back then (i was a really, really big shadow fan.. still am..) but nowadays realise is more of a mixed bag. I still like it, though. However, A PC Port brings the chance of some really insane mods that could fix the game. (perhaps a new version of the Reloaded mod that takes advantage of the fact the game would be on PC to add even more content!) It has my vote! This, Heroes, and Unleashed should all get modern PC releases..
The game may be flawed and trying to 100% the game is tedious. However, the gameplay is fun and it is fun choosing your adventure as you play the game. You could side with the heroes, Black Doom's alien forces, or just speed run to the end of the level to go neutral.
I know this game was criticized for using guns in a "Sonic Game," but the gun mechanics are actually fun to use. Is it silly, yes. Does it make sense in a Sonic Game, probably not. But this game is about Shadow the Hedgehog. He isn't Sonic, and that what makes him cool. I want this game to be preserved, not just as a time capsule of the era this game came out, but also as a way for modders to make this game more interesting.
BTW GameCube supremacy all the way!
Shadow KnightsAs a ninja with a mission to "redeem Naipusan, the once peaceful land that was destroyed by the northern armies", you have to defeat the evil Shogun of Death.
Shadow Knights is a platform game where you try to complete several levels, such as a village, a cemetery or a castle, before confronting the final boss. On each level, you'll encounter a lot of enemies - initially dogs and ninjas with clubs and bows, but more types of enemies appear later.
To defeat them, you can slash at them with your sword. However, your ninja also has magic powers. He can spend this magical energy to toss magical projectiles at the enemies, or to restore his health. Depleted magical energy can be refilled by collecting golden spheres scattered throughout the levels.Action
Sonic BlastFully rendered graphics thrust Sonic into an exciting 3D playing environment. An all new gameplay perspective puts you in the middle of Sonic's 3D adventure! The evil genius Robotnik is after the Chaos Emeralds and it's up to Sonic to stop him. Rescue the innocent Flickies before Robotnik turns them into part of his evil plan!
Sonic Blast was the last Sonic game for the Game Gear.
The game was also ported to the Sega Master System in Brazil by TecToy and released in December 1997, making it the last game ever made for that system.
While this game was released at the end of 1996 in conjunction with the similarly named Sonic 3D Blast, it is worth noting that the two games have little in common. No enemies, levels, or bosses, are shared between the games. The story is also completely different. Sonic and Knuckles join together to collect five of a Chaos Emerald's pieces and confront Dr. Robotnik at Silver Castle.Action Historical Educational
