I am all of me not in the game
As a massive fan of the original Shadow the Hedgehog game and Shadow as a character I had high expectations for this game, I was even anticipating it being my game of the year; however, things did not turn out that way. The game is padded through the roof despite being less than 3 hours. The open zone is just as bad as frontiers and the 2d levels are garbage (as expected). There's only 6 levels, none of which are from the original Shadow the Hedgehog game; they couldn't even include I am all of me! Yes that's right, they couldn't even be bothered to put the original theme in the game.

The power-ups are forced and gimmicky, they don't make you think in any interesting out of the box way besides the final level (too little too late). The first 3 levels hardly use the power-ups at all except the forced scripted sequences. The game forces you to do 6 (count them 6!) filler missions to fight each boss which is a complete waste of time. None of these are fun or satisfying to complete.

Overall, the game is a massive disappointment and affront to any true Shadow the Hedgehog fan, I want everyone to apologize to Shadow the Hedgehog immediately. The game also runs like ♥♥♥♥ on PC and lags/stutters constantly even though my PC meets the min specs. Sonic Generations is good but Shadow Generations is a massive disappointment, and as far as I know the original Generations is untouched.

Are you joking? I've been playing challenge stages with it already

You can use it as background music during the side missions

I had it from the start of the game. The one song I want that I cannot find is Supporting Me (Trailer Mix/Boss Theme). I found the original one from SA2, but not the new and best version.

Use all hail shadow or live & learn. Makes any stage feel like the last one lol.

This is a joke right?

Its definitely in the game, so is a lot of crush 40's popular tracks.
Also part of the harmony for the background track in the white zone is All Hail Shadow.

Also this is a massive bait post, don't reply to it.

Shadow is one of my favorites and I think the game is a blast.

It's definitely not worth $50/$60 though

Depends on the value of the person. If you want to say x amount of hours for y dollars then I understand.
