The guns make my childhood CRY. Bleh.
I want old-school~~~
Looks pretty kickass, I'll probably get it.
giving hedgehogs guns makes baby jesus cry…
I know with the gun but he looks sweet with it lol ^_^
I'm buying Zelda: Twilight Princess and Super Mario Football (Soccer) for gamecube ^^ this christmas!!
Zelda: TP's been delayed, hasn't it?
The gun is so stupid! Shadow doens't need a gun, he has friggin CHAOS CONTROL powers! If he wanted to blast someone from a distance he could easilly send a bolt of Chaos Magic flying at their face, which is probably more damage-causing than some silly little bullet would cause.
I really hope this game lets me play WITHOUT the gun, it looks pretty cool otherwise.

My thoughts exactly. Sega and Sonic have both gone down the drain.
EDIT - Demon Days - yeah, TP has been delayed until May 2006, I think. Somewhere around then.
I wanted Sonic Adventure 3 damnit. Shadow is overrated.
Sonic Adventure 3 would've been awesome
Like I said before, Shadow's a gimmick character used to get all of those quote unquote "rebels/punks/troubled teens" to buy more Sonic merchandise, and Shadow offers nothing original that isn't in better games. Just a "Me too" game that's clogging up game stores worldwide.
Say all you want about Killer 7, but at least Capcom with SUDA 51 and Shinji Mikami (I think I got the name right) tried something original.
Shadow having a gun is the lamest thing EVER.
Why does almost every dark and mysterious guy have to have a GUN?
Oh man I can't believe that I forgot to mention that Shadow is the biggest tool EVER. Screw you, Sega, your marketing is WEAK.
It said it was either
Sonic Adventure 3: Shadow the Hedgehog
or
Shadow the Hedgehog
And forget about me saying Shadow cool with the guns thing ^_^ lol
It's not anymore

I still think it looks cool. The gun shouldn't ruin what will be a cool platforming adventure.

@_@ lol to the link
MAybe the gun won't ruin it.. i bet it will cuz it's not going with the tradition of the sonic games.
I'm pretty psyched for this game, actually. I've heard that although he has a gun, you can opt not to blast your way through.

THANK YOU
You should really check out the 4kids forums, the morons there think Shadow is the greatest character on earth, and say that he has all these amazing traits that he doesn't even have.
Yes, an ultimate lifeform really needs an automatic weapon.
I'm a bigger fan of Knux and Chaotix and frankly if Sega is going to do a side game I'd much rather see it starting them than Shadow. I agree Shadow is overhyped.
Still I am still probably going to look into buying at some point. I feel the gun aspect could add a darker tone to the game and personally I'm interesting in seeing if it can be pulled off. Plus I don't believe it's possible to make proper judgement until you've played the game.

You said everything I was going ti say.
To quote Tombstone's Wyatt Earp: NO.
I wanted Sonic Adventure 3 damnit. Shadow is overrated.
There is another Sonic Adventure game in the works, but it's not going to be called Sonic Adventure 3, nor is it going to be called Sonic Heroes 2.
Because running isn't cool anymore.
Seems like "Shadow: Grand Theft Hedgehog" would've been a more fitting title.
The very concept of this game is ridiculous, I still can't believe it was actually made.
That is the most stupidly awesome thing I have ever seen. I will get the game, just to see how goofy it will really be. At least some aspects of the game seem good.
GTH?
Grand Theft Hedgehog =P
Sorta like what Usopp with Pushpop said.
Yeah, Shadow doesn't need cars or motorcycles… :\
He's like twice as fast then them put together!!
This is dumb >;@
As previously referencd by Buccaneer, Wyatt Earp from the movie Tombstone said it best: NO!
The guns alone was pointless since if Shadow's supposed to be this "Ultimate Lifeform" the fans babble about, he wouldn't need guns. But now motorcycles and cars when he's faster than motorized vehicles? That's just uber lame.
And of course, the younglings are freaking out over this: "COOL! He's arm3d and can drive a car! He's badass!111 1 want this game! LOL!"
I found two rumors about stuff relating to the game.
The first one is that he's apparently also going to use swords, which is also quite lame. The second one is that SEGA says the next Sonic game will be true to the roots of the original Sonic games, which launches a tiny hope in my heart, but a large doubt since I heard false promises like that before.
This could very well be the most overhyped game of this year, maybe even reaching the top 10 overrated games of history.
Hahaha, looking around on IMDB, it looks like this game with have the 4Kids voice acting
This will be Game of the Year
@Cap'n:

Yeah, Sega fired all of the voice actors who worked on the Sonic Adventure series and hired all of the VAs from Sonic X, claming that it's all for "product continuity".
I feel sorry for the poor guys who got fired, some of them didn't even know they were fired until they walked into the building.
Oh yeah, I remember the announcement about that. If there was any way to honor the memory of the late Deem Bristow, voice of Dr. Robotnik, this is NOT it. They could at least keep Ryan Drummond, for pete's sake!
Well, I do agree that's a shitty way to deal with it, but most of those actors were mediocre as well. So I don't think it's a terrible loss.
sighs
I guess we're looking forward to another dissapointment..
The good old original Sonic Games have died..
WHY SEGA!? WHY!?!?!?!
I'm pretty sure you can choose to have a gun or not most of the time in the game, BUT!!!!! if you preorder it you get a free Shadow Beanie… ARE THEY SENDING MIXED SIGNALS HERE OR IS IT JUST ME!!??!!??!!?? (You have to reserve at EB Games, Gamestop, or Game Crazy.)(Also when i reserved mine they gave me TWO Resident Evil 4 3" Leon Figures... wierd. They didn't have the beanies yet, and the person there said that if they don't get them they'll give me 15 other things to compinsate for it... I'M SCARED!!!)
Oh god.
This is gonna be so awful I just have to buy it!
Shadow has been forever ruined in my brain.
What's with all the borderline Sonic fanboy love? Did I miss some incredible amazing Sonic game beyond 1 and 2 and Sonic and Knuckles for Genesis that wasn't mediocre?
@omae:

What, you didn't like three? :laugh:
But yeah like most of you guys, I was a little waylaid by the fact Sega was adding firearm to the game. Seem like a swollow tatic to bring in the fanyboys (and of course they ate it right up.) It does look interesting from the video though and the gameplay still relays on speed (somewhat). The thing now is has SEGA fixed any of the problems that found in Sonic Heroes (which I thought was pretty good). Namely the camera and some more varied gameplay.
What, you didn't like three?
Three was two with diff. backgrounds. Sonic and Knuckles was really neat for its time.
One thing that I am getting this game for is to see if all of the mysteries surrounding Shadow are cleared up.
True enough. But I still felt Sonic 3 was a good sequel and experience.
Man, if only Sega decided to do more with Chaotix or CD or something.
…............ My childhood is killed. You kill of Sonic with creating a game for his evil clone (not literally) gets his own game instead of SA3, then they give him a gun, now he goes around driving. Why the fuck does the world's ultimate lifeform need a car to travel? Now knowing that they're making another Sonic Heroes, goddamnit, why can't they just make another game like the original Sonic Adventure.
I do agree that I never saw the big deal about Sonic. The original Genesis games were a lot of fun, but nothing too extraordinary. I thought the Adventure games were fun, but really overrated. I think a lot of it is the nostalgia factor. And furries.

Since Sonic X seemed to follow the storyline of the Sonic Adventure games, I would rather die than see a game with the current storyline of Sonic X.
Then again it might make a good game. >.>
I know many people said it already but: Shadow can run faster than a car therefore he doesn't need one. I just wanted to say I support that line of thinking.
Maybe he had an accident and now he can't run as fast as he used to now. >_>
Sonic reminds me of my childhood. Sonic 2,3 and Knuckles were good games also I really liked the Sonic Archie comics and Saturday morning cartoons. (The one with the freedom fighters, and maybe Sonic Underground. NOT Sonic X)
As long as I have "Sonic Mega Collection" for my gamecube.. I'm okay.
All the classic Sonics!!! (^_^)
In regards to Omae's post, the big negative reaction is mostly likely stemmed from childhood treasured memories of playing the original games. Well, at least for me. I remember being filled with glee when I played the first Sonic game, a time when the big word of the time was "blast processing", and now most of the Sonic games tend to have other characters in the limelight, all of these different types of play, and of course then there's all of this unneeded stuff for the Shadow game, most of it stolen from other games. I look at all of these and I just don't feel like playing them, they look so unappetizing.
Im not excited at all. Sonic games arent good anymore. There is no good 3D sonic that isnt on the Genesis. Of course, I dont really think those games are very good either. Well, I guess they are good, just really really over rated.

Sonic X is terrible, practically the whole show is about the damn human characters. I don't give a crap about them, I want a show about Sonic. They did a pretty half assed job on the Adventure arcs as well.
