I second that, seeing Shadow hold a gun as a kid was the most surreal thing to see at the age I was at, I distinctly remember just staring at the opening in awe for like, 30 minutes The game was so lit back in the day🔥
Aside from the cool music, the main reason I like this intro is because it strongly reminds me of the game 'Prototype'. Both playable characters are anti-heroes and they have the choice of fighting against evil forces or the police/military in an end-of-the-world scenario. The game is just awesome and is the closest thing.
Same ive been trynna figure that out ever since I first saw it Edit: however tho apparently according to Google the smg that shadow has is a MP5A3 or a MP5 for short that can be cocked like a shotgun

Came back here after the Sonic 3 intro. To think the director’s first big break with the Sonic series was working on this games intro, and now he’s directing the movies where Shadow is set to make his cinematic entrance
Shadow the Hedgehog is a game where you choose your path of being a villain, good, or neutral since Shadow doesn't know who he is on the inside because he got amnesia (because of Eggman or something) so this opening is showing Shadow being a good guy by killing demons and being evil by killing Sonic and the Army. Shadow hates Sonic anyway, so I can see him killing Sonic at anytime. Lol
