There’s a lot of things I un-ironically love about this game. Like for example, the president of the U.S.A. has a framed picture of Shadow and Sonic on his desk, which is hilarious.
I like the mission where you can kill the president
@@peytongolding7544 Wait, is that actually a thing or am I getting jebaited?
@@FennekMaster yes it is, the "dark" mission in Air Fleet (in the semi-dark story)
@@peytongolding7544 That is amazing.

"Nothing personal, kid"
True and say “nothing personal kid”
@@EazySpeezy He does say that at a different point in the story
Nothing personnel, actually

The fact you knew absolutely nothing about the story just makes it better, honestly
I beat it twice too and even watched all the cutscences and I still have no idea. Something about the government and aliens.
*KAHPP* MARIA-IA-I-A *KAHPP*
@@magicmanscott40k shadow is half saiyan half furry and his father wants him to kill people and obama didn't like that. In one semi-dark history mision you can kill him.
The story is basically you can kill whatever the fuck you want,wanna be a good hero clinche go get the emeralds and get a good story.
Annoyed of eggman go dark and kill him.
Pissed off the snapcube calls out Obama and not trump in her dub of sa2 go dark and shoot down the president's helicopter.
Honestly they're just so much different endings... And a true ending that shit on every other ending
"So Eggman wants to talk to us or something but I don't know"
"There's some probably important story stuff going on right now but ehh"
"I'm not going to destroy the power sources, doctor; I'm already finished with the level"
"So Eggman turned from good to evil for some reason."
Nobody:
Shadow: *for my neutral special, I wield a g u n*
I STRONGLY DISAGREE! Being as famous as I am on TH-cam, I know that it gets hard to read every comment I get. I try my best, but I am just so famous, that I can't do it much longer. Sorry, dear arts
@@AxxLAfriku yes i also disagree shadow should use an m16 rather than a measily pistol

Watching easy is like watching my grandson. I have no idea what is happening, but he seems to have fun, soooo
Hahaha glad you enjoy. My actual grandmother says the same thing
Michelle :handshake: Eazy's grandmother
Are ya winning Eazy?
Speedrunners: *skip cutscenes*
Also speedrunners: what's going on with the story???/?
Hahaha i have my priorities in order i think
@@EazySpeezy guess i can never be a speedruner then
@@ahmijalza2101 typically speedrunners actually do play the game first so they actually know what to do and how to skip things to get faster, so watching cutscenes the first time through is what normally happens, they then play it over and over to get faster
Let's be honest, do you REALLY wanna know what's going on in shadow the hedgehog? It's so bad that sega legit doesn't acknowledge it, at least 06 they talk about it in in light like that didn't exist.
@@Microwave414 it doesn't have a bad history actually, in that time the edgy stuff wasn't really cringe and the endings are kinda interesting, but yeah now Shadow's edgyness is just funny
Shadow: Has an existencial crisis.
EazySpeezy: I'm sorry Shadow, but I'm speedrunning right now.
But we made that guy depressed so I think it's worth it

"You go shadow, You Be Edgy"
Thank you for this Public Service Announcement
I HAVE AN ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE
He makes a good point, sonic is trying to manipulate you into being good. That being said, this goes for all heroes in video games, doesn't it? Bad guys just start at a disadvantage.
Fair point honestly
Sometimes you live in the area that the bad guy is wanting to take over or destroy. All my stuff is there
By that logic your parents trying to teach you to walk or talk is manipulation since they're trying to 'manipulate' you into doing something they want to. Sonic wants to save people because he thinks it's the right thing and is encouraging shadow to do the right thing, as opposed to a villain like Black Shadow or Robotnik who wants what they want and cares less about what happens to the people they use to get it. Manipulation would be if he didn't care what happened to Shadow and would just be using him as a means to an end, to make him be good as a means to an end for some selfish goal, when he clearly just wants to save people and also cares about Shadow as well. There's no ulterior motive.

I bet you can’t speedrun the first checkpoint of any language in duolingo.
This is a joke by the way, I don’t expect this to be possible in any sort of way

You missed the end of that cutscene where Shadow just straight murders Robotnik in cold blood.
Robotnik gotta die faster then, dudes trying to do a speedrun lol
KARATE CHOP ACTION!
*G O O D B Y E D O C T O R*
Isn't there a cutscence where the moon blows up or the white house blows up or something like that? I hear the game when it came out and can barely remember it
@@magicmanscott40k white house blows up. The moon is from sonic adventure 2.
when you actually watch the cutscenes, Egg being the good in Sky Troops makes _PERFECT_ sense- and the line "How can I take over the city, if there IS no city!?" is just amazing.
But then there’s the stage where eggman is the bad guy but his troops are considered good.
appelofdoom Good and evil is just a human contract. It can change based on whatever is most convenient
@@alexandramcginnis8872 yes but getting a better score for killing your (supposed) allies and losing score for killing your enemies is a bit fucked.
Like Amy getting mad about you killing eggman’s robots and you losing score for it does make sense for her character but the game deducting points for killing eggman’s enemies while working for eggman does not
It's not even that Eggman's good
It's just that he's less bad, the game's written like ass, but since the good and bad factions are a core part of it, it makes sense that they picked the lesser of two evils for good.
If we talk about the level with Amy where Eggman is the bad faction but his robots are considered good though...
"If I watched the story, I'd probably know what's going on."
Trust me, you wouldn't.
Yes he would. This game has a good story, but most people are too pretentious to approach it.
@@genyakozlov1316 is just that the edgyness is now considered cringe and maybe can get you bored, but aside of the cliche shadow's dialogues the story is pretty complete
@@genyakozlov1316 it doesn't though. Give the game some credit but the story has never been good.
The "choice" nature just means the cutscenes between missions are often just a jumbled mess, and most routes are super unfocused. Nevermind that the choice system is 100% pointless narratively because there's a final story.
Even the set stuff of the Last Story isn't good either because the arbitrary addition of Black Doom to an established backstory on top of people saying "we were wrong about him, Gerald Robotnik should be honored," clearly contradicts the story in Sonic Adventure 2.
@@Robbie_Haruna Does it really contradict anything, though? It's pretty obvious one happened after the other.
@@blackpants7385 i mean yeah.
Because any evil stories don't count lol, since at the end of the last story Shadow saves the day.
But beyond that the last story has him gather all the chaos Emeralds on the Black Comet, which has only two routes that end there (true hero and semi dark,) but if you went the good route you'd have beat up Black Doom too, yet he shows up just fine lol.
I remember seeing a friend play sonic unleashed and thought that was cool. So I looked for one at game stop and found this and I unironically loved it. Say what you will about edginess but I love this game.
Same, it was the first PS2 game I ever played and I love it till this day. I own the game for more than ten years now, recently replayed it again and I still love it. Brings so many great memories and I just can't hate it no matter what. A few weeks ago I picked it up again and decided to unlock Expert Mode, since I read about it on the internet when I was a kid and remembered that I never unlocked it. And it was definitely worth the grind of getting A-rank on every single mission in every level. If I'd get to know the game after getting older I'd probably like it less, but as a kid I loved Sonic and Shadow and this game made nearly my whole childhood.
Sonic Unleashed was my fist game as a child and I still play it to this day; I’m trying to finish it for the first time because now I can actually understand English and know what I have to do
I think the edgy menus and gui put a bad taste in everyone's mouths, the game itself is otherwise close to other Sonic games in tone.
Unleashed and Shadow The hedgehog are really good games that just had a bad first look
@@GirlLove4Ever "other Sonic games in tone" I don't know any other sonic games that try to capitalize swear words & has visually dull levels.
Fun fact: the idea for this game came after Sega received a letter from a fan asking if they could give Sonic a gun
"You go shadow be edgy"
*proceeds not to kill anyone*
He vacuums everyone to death, both the humans and the Black Arms.
Not possible. If you dont kill anyone then you need to kill Eggman at the end. So its gonna be EDGE whether you like it or not
Speedrun Sonic 06. As a anti-Christmas present to yourself.
Specially since that game has much more speedrun potential.
Low key 06 is the most fun game with the purple gem.
No lmao
Am I the only one who thought sonic 06 was actually kinda fun...
@@crimsonlm9912 No, I thought it was too. Even when you aren't breaking it
Still not a good game, but you could do worse...
I love how he jumps, shooting and running full of the exaggerated swagger of a black hedgehog.
Another vid that reminds me that iam at 3 am and watching ssonic

EazySpeezy: "I have good memories of this"
The internet: *wait, that's illegal*
I like it. It's a very unique game. I just remember the combat being awful. The levels were cool.
@@magicmanscott40k Combat was fine. Just shoot stuff and be done with it. It was more of a temporary distraction than something the game focuses on. In that sense I think the weapons were a good addition mechanically

I didn't think a casual speedrunner was a thing but you have perfected the craft sir
It’s weird seeing Shadow the Hedgehog the Game and not hearing him say “Damn, not here!”
"looks like a yoshi egg"
*Cries in Billy Hatcher*
“And right there we just jumped whole upside down now sure how that works”
Shadows edgy ness defies all known laws of physics
Actually, with enough speed (which we know he has) a small loss of contact with the road can easily be recovered from in a loop. Speed and momentum are vectors (directional quantities, roughly speaking), and acceleration modifies them gradually over time. But gravity, being a source of acceleration, doesn't bypass existing speeds to immediately delete the forward or upward momentum you had previously, or in other words those speeds that are needed to go through a loop without falling off into the bottom part, which if you have enough of, you'll make the loop in a quick enough manner so that there isn't enough time for gravity to accelerate you enough to disrupt your loop path.
But the question is why he can stay on the loop if he jumps at the peak of the loop (momentum has been turned all horizontal) adding to the downward acceleration that gravity gives. Well, without other forces acting on them, object trajectories are linear. And while it's not exactly the case here, my point about bringing up Newton's First Law is to explain how loops work. Roughly speaking, if you go fast in a loop, you end up sticking to the road because the road pushes you to stop you from going through it. If at any point in a loop the whole road suddenly disappeared, you'd go in a straight line (except gravity) because the normal force (what pushes things apart to stop them from going through each other) would no longer be there to modify your speed toward a circle trajectory.
In other words still, the reason you can move on a road is 1.existing speed along that road and 2.that there's enough force pushing you toward the road so that you can get a good grip (normal force) and use wheels or legs to propel you along. Loops happen to show you what sources you can get that grip from. At the bottom part, the main contributor is gravity. At the quarter part (road is 90 degrees (up)), gravity's contribution 0 and starts to get negative. At the top part, you need to use the material alongside your existing speed to keep a contact with the road, otherwise you'll fall off. You could use wheels, legs, jets or other engines to help out toward going forward or pushing toward the road, but for wheels and legs you'd still need an existing grip to get the force needed for propulsion. But if you're fast enough you can still make it across the midpoint. As you start to go down, though, gravity starts going in your favor, speeding you up as it forces you away from the road less and less until the three-quarter part where it starts contributing toward your grip once more.
tldr Even with a small upside-down jump making him fall a little more, he still has enough speed to meet the road at a further point of the loop, so it would be possible for him to complete the loop with existing physics. But yeah, game model animations aren't physics. I hope that was interesting.
@@cedleonard123 This is some copypasta material right here.
@@cedleonard123 Big brain time.
@@cedleonard123 Thanks for thorough explanation
Ngl 0/10 no “where’s that DAMN fourth chaos emerald” cutscene :P
Its a semi hero story he did the neutral(dont ask how i know)
this game would be good if it didn’t start the trend of shadows character being watered down to Mr.edgy
It had a lot more problems than just the edgy shit.
For all its faults, Sonic 06 has Shadow's character be more than just an edgelord.
@@Robbie_Haruna Honestly other than SA2 in 06 his character was the best. It’s just a shame that people think back to this game.
Honestly I think the game would benefit from a reimagined version where there is only one concise story, no guns or edge, and the Adventure style gameplay. The chaos moves would need some reworking but I feel that it would help not only the character, but the franchise as a whole if done correctly
@@demigodstudios I see where you’re going with that but at the same time I kinda like the game even with it’s faults it set the game up to be not a ‘normal’ sonic game even though it did accomplish that with being edgy and using guns but I find that to be a charm that the game has. But that’s purely gameplay and nothing to do with story so🤷🏻♂️
His name is Shadow and he‘s almost a copy of Sonic, but in black and red. Pretty sure being Mr. Edgy was always his destiny.
@@fritzvoncranach6268 He also started the trend of lazy ass Sonic recolors as OCs.
Shadow’s lines are the best part of this game
Yeah he really tried to be a cool dude
@@EazySpeezy nah he is ACTUALLY cool
"Is that a Yoshi egg?"
[cries in obscure forgotten Sega game]
What is it from?
@@kyleguajardo Billy Hatcher. It was a Sega game for the GameCube.
I heard the word "Damn" for the first time in this game as a kid. Blew my mind
The adults in your life and the kids at school never cussed?
Is damn even a bad word?
Ah yes. The good old days of edge in the early 2000's.
The true best character in this game, the egg from Billy Hatcher.
Shadow: Unlocks lvl2 katana
Shadow: I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING....
PROVOKING
My favorite part of the game is when Obama uses chaos control after you take the full evil path.
I have such fond memories of playing this game as a kid with my brothers. The multiplayer was fucking awesome.
-Let me get this straight, you think that Shadow the Hedgehog is a good game?
-I do, and i'm tired of pretending it's not.
“Eggman wants to make an announcement but we’re gonna skip over than.”
"Sonic, but it's edgy
" is a very accurate description of this game, i can verify it
"Thank you for wasting me an entire minute."
Come on, we all know you would have wasted that minute somewhere else in the game.
I love your speedruns, you don't neeeed to be the best speedrunner, you just want to be a speedrunner, and you are not just registering your name and a timing for a unusual game, you are registering your name, your timing, your faliures, your hits, a fraction of your runs, and what you were thinking when you did it
I love that he just says murder at any given chance like he doesn't have to but he does anyways
9:30 It's a reference to Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg, another Sega game where you roll around the titular egg to free the chickens. And no, I didn't make that up during a fever dream look it up for anyone curious
*I speedrunning sonic, but it's edgy.*
Several minute later :
*I tried speedrunning shadow the hedgehog and the edginess physically hurt me*
"and it's pretty great because it means we have to play less of the game" - Yes, exactly what I like to hear
I never expected to hear the words "Sonic is trying to manipulate you."
I actually played that game once and I accidentally went evil on the last good stage and screwed up everything
I watch this channel for the nostalgia from my childhood more than the speedruns
“Fifth time’s a try” - words to live by.
The only line I truly hold dearly from this game is from Eggman: THE MORE THE MERRIER!
"you can probably tell by the music..."
proceeds to make voice louder than music
im actually glad this is my birthday video
I have such great memories of playing the multi-player of this game with my cousin in my og Xbox and I almost had forgotten this game existed. Thank you. I finally know why I'm so edgy
always fun playing this game with my friend on his PS2! Just the PvP mode though we never played the campaign. I remember one time he wanted a copy of the intro cutscene but he didn't have a tape recorder so he gave me his copy for a few days so I could get it on tape for him xD
The repressed memories of this game are coming back. It definitely didn't seem this bad the first time I played this game
I have no idea how younger me had the patience to unlock the final story...
I love how for the pure neutral ending, Shadow got his own backstory wrong
Sonic: hey shadow, no time no see!
Edgy Shadow: I don't even know who you are.
Drinking game: take a shot every time he says "edgy"
I loved this edginess as a kid. It was so cool being able to kill people as a sonic character.
This game holds a special place in my heart. Younger me loved this game, older me thinks it's charmingly terrible. Thanks for the entertaining video Easy!!
He should speedrun the sonic game called “sonic and the black knight “
Oh yeah I remember that game. It was the best sonic game ever. The combat was amazing. The story was fantastic. There were 0 bugs. Absolutely perfect game. 100/10
OMG YES THAT'S MY FAVORITE SONIC GAME!!
Im a massive sonic fan and only found out about that game ~1 year ago. It looks really fun, I might play it.
@@thecoolnoob1288 the story was fantastic,and the gameplay was better than secret rings,not a big thing but definitely up the better ones.
@@thecoolnoob1288 I actually did like the story, it is a different take, so it's probably not for everyone.
“They literally just die... and I love it” got me dead 🤣
I saw this and shed a tear with how much i miss this game i remember the trailer for this game was so hype
Doom’s eye: 1:50
Easy Speezy: lol hedgehog go vroom🤪
I've watched hours of the 100% speedrhns man, the nostalgia thxxxxx eazy
The billy hatcher disrespect makes me sad
"But I mean who wants story for a Sonic game"
Sonic Adventure 2 would like to have a talk with you
So would the Rush series
Unleashed too
But shadow the hedgehog has some good story too
This is pure NG+ run since you actually use a weapon that is only available for a certain ending.
I subbed when you had like 13k, you are the king of channel growth
Shadow: "it feels like I've been here before"
Eazy: *"Yeah you've probably been to prison Shadow"*
"We might have wasted time but we made that guy depressed so its worth it" I see your priorities are in order
To be fair, a 26:10 isn't the worst. Gotta start somewhere. I think my first time was somewhere in the 24 minute mark, but now I'm down to 18:36. Running this game is actually a lot of fun, and as someone who is currently helping develop our new Katana% category, its awesome that you decided to run this game. Shadow the Hedgehog's speedrunning community is pretty nice, so if anyone here wants to give it a try, I'd highly recommend it. We've got a lot of different categories for you to try.
Seeing you utterly demolish the Egg Breaker has brought peace to my soul
YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY... THE MORE THE MERRIER!
I Praise You, This Game Hurts. A Ton.
"They literally just die, and I love it!"
-Eazy Speezy 2020
The best part about this is that Shadow found that DAMN fourth chaos emerald.
9:55 The turret actually shoots faster if you just mash the B button. Same goes for the gun that the turret drops when it's destroyed.
"Edgy Sonic game"
You mean the BEST Sonic game. I don't remember being able to use guns in any other sonic game
E-102 Gamma in Sonic Adventure uses a gun. So do Tails and Eggman in Sonic Adventure 2.
@@UndefeatableTwilightCatgirl More like lasers but at least prior to Edgy the Hedgy they didn't try to shove it down your throat that characters used weapons.
I remember when this game out and all the coverage I ever saw for it was “its sonic, but with guns” lol
What's your thoughts on the game?
Hello, I found your channel on my recommended and I really enjoy your content (I subscribed weeks ago!) I was wondering if you can speedrun the entire Riddle School/Riddle Transfer series, it's a really fun game!
Don’t care what anyone says this was one of my childhood favorites
I loved this game so baaaaaaad when I was growing up
I remember playing this game when I was 8. And had no idea what was going on and never finished the game
That Chaos Control glitch is amazing, can't believe I never knew of it! I gotta try it sometime lol.
I love this game so much, also, you can press down on the d-pad to de-summon the ally you have currently
I still have this on my Gamecube
This might be the first time I see that he actually does the glitch first try :D
I want a remake of this game I miss it. It was a really fun game
The sight of shadow with guns was so bizarre for me as a child, that i thought this wasn't a real Sonic game, and that it was one of those bootleg gta ps2 discs with bad mods installed to replace CJ with a famous character
Last time I was this early to a Speezy video was... Last Speezy video, actually.
Gg
It's so perfect I'm crying.
I need to play this again. Used to play the multiplayer all night, so much damn fun
Loved this game a ton. I remember in the space station, if you killed/hurt the soldiers and throw a heal pod on them, they’ll stand up and start saluting you for saving them
The chicken sucker is the most unedgey weapon in this game.
This game would've been more bearable if it wasn't trying too damn hard to be edgy.
@@philithegamer8265 i liked the game though.. same with 06.. but you know.. people are going to disagree regardless.
Cutscenes: exists
Speed runners: This little maneuver is going to save me 50 years!
Alright there is history of the game in a nutshell (the part from it is from adventure 2):
Shadow basically was a experiment made by gerald robotnik,he was supposed to be government weapon but something went wrong and government attacked the space colony ARK (not really sure why) where shadow friend-maria robotnik died from hands of government,and then there is atleast 100 shadow copies and everyone of them is having amnesia,Omega said that "the original is somewhere"
I know i skipped some of the parts like the black doom and gerald robotnik deal,im just too lazy to translate it from my language to english :P
You got the Neutral - Hero Ending.
And this may have been my first of your videos, though I don't remember for sure.
UPDATE: The path he got in this speedrun is called "A New Empire's Beginning". Yes, all 326 (!!!) *paths* (not endings, the paths that can get you to those endings) are *individually named* .
