Sonic X Shadow Generations

Bro this game is so peak The levels are very polished, music is great, runs well on my gaming laptop Also shadow is a pretty cool character (albeit, kinda edgy)

One of my favorite Sonic games. got this for cheap during the Steam Summer Sale and it was well worth the value, took around 30 hours to 100% both games, some of the best level designs in my opinion, thought Planet Wisp sucks and some of the harder challenges especially in Shadow Gens can get tedious, and you could end up spending hours in White Space searching for all the Rocket Parts and Chests. but other than those parts, its really a great experience. 8.5/10

Sonic X Shadow Generations is a bigger package than the original Sonic Generations featuring a brand new full story and levels where you play as Shadow. While the original Sonic Generations was fantastic, it was very short with a main story of 3-5 hours, but with Shadow's story into the mix adding another 4-5 hours, now the game truly feels like a full package. Not to mention all the extra missions and collectibles to hunt for in both stories to extend the playtime. The new Shadow the hedgehog story features the best Sonic/Shadow level design we have had in years! It's been a long time I ever felt the adrenaline and pureness of playing Sonic/Shadow, since Sonic Adventure 2 without any bugs, performance issues or wonky or short level design, everything is well crafted. It also does a fantastic job of redeeming levels that had great design but were in unfinished games like Kingdom Valley from Sonic 06 which ends up being my favorite in this game. The story is also a great send off to Shadow's revenge arc once and for all, where he finally gets to fully come to terms with his past, essentially doing what the Shadow the Hedgehog spin-off failed to achieve. Overall, this is an excellent game and a top recommendation for anyone wanting to buy their first ever Sonic game or any returning player to the franchise. This is a must on all fronts! I finished the game on PS5 also, hence my early-ish review, but played the full Shadow story to test pc performance and it worked like a charm.
