A lot of sonic games from this area have insane pre-rendered cutscenes. Shadow the Hedgehog, Sonic 06, Riders, Secret Rings, Black Knight, Riders Zero Gravity
I feel like the OST is the strong point but Shadow easily had the best gameplay. Finally getting to use all of his Chaos powers in normal gameplay was fantastic.
- the OST is amazing, one of my favorites in the series - most characters stayed true to their Adventure era portrayals (this game has the best Shadow, Eggman is almost as threatening as he was in SA2, Sonic stays pretty consistent and Silver does his job as the new character) - levels are actually pretty fun (and P-06 shows this) - Mephiles is arguably one of the greatest villains in the series - gorgeous CGI cutscenes What *really* killed this game was: - plot holes and the unnecessary romance (the script definetely needed another draft) - characters were good conceptually but the devs didn't have time to make them fun to play - glitches - subpar voice acting and godawful cutscenes Sonic 06 isn't an unsalvageable mess, it's just not finished
I shouldn't of been DLC in sonic forces...my episode should've been unlocked by maybe getting all red star rings, or getting an S rank in all stages. That eould of been better than spending all their lives just making DLC for an okay game.
Actually he’s probably the most important character in the story besides silver. Sonic literally does nothing except save Elise in this plot. He has no connection to Iblis, Mephiles nothing. He’s absolutely useless in this game
Ezio: "I will blend in the crowd to get to my target undetected." Sam Fisher: "I will use darkness and technology as a cover to infiltrate any facility." Shadow: "I will charge at full speed at the main entrance in full view, said entrance being guarded by a small army, and will subsequently destroy the whole army all by myself." I think Shadow purposefully throws stealth out the window for the sake of badassery (no complaints, it works) XD
0:20 Okay, I can't be the ONLY person who thinks this scene is like something out of Metal Gear Solid, and Shadow's voice when saying "Initiating the mission now." sounds like Snake, which to me, is freaking awesome. All thats left is to give him a game over scene with the agent screaming Shadow in panic. XD
Cinematic scenes like this are just too groundbreaking to be in any Sonic game, in my opinion: This could've been our Theatrical Version of Sonic The Hedgehog, look at Happy Feet, Astro Boy & TMNT (2007)
@@WickedBowserJr Nothing, the issue is CGI cutscenes like 06 are more polished than what we usually get with the films I described upon release date. While Pixar and DreamWorks revolutionized the medium with their textures, this game looked way ahead of it's time with stunning Visuals.
The game was bad as hell.... But This was just plain BADASS.... But that's Shadow everything he does is BADASS!!!!.... And the CGI style of his is Crazy dope!!
so shadow would have made sense to use guns in this game considering hes working for the military he technically does as his vehicles have them attached.
I love this cutscene but i always wonder why does he hide from the lights if he just destroy hundreds of robots and if they wen on its because they all ready now he's their
Shadow with all seven chaos emeralds beats goku`s master ultrainstinct, he can control time and space, total invulnerability except when he is damaged for multiversal entity's like Solaris and more. Is overpowered
Compared to SA2 ans Sonic Heroes, this Shadow lost all his vitality, it might be the tone of the game though, everybody is more serious, not only Shadow. But the loneliness and melancholy are spot on. He has a reason to be always sad, even without bringing Maria back. Above all, he was still not a edgelord yet.
The only great storytelling comes from Shadow's perspective. And even then, it's not as great as it could have been since it's connected to this game's mess of a story in general.
@@HareemByron Oh, definitely. Shiro Maekawa has written some of the best stuff in the series. Him and the director of Generations, Hiroshi Miyamoto, are two of the best writers at Sonic Team.

Hey Check out my other videos when you get the chance!
thanks man! ^_^
ill sub back to ya :D
I totally agree!!
I know right
Sonic fans during the Area 51 raid
True XD
Also i subbed!
Thank you, Shadow
@@FusionComet no prob
@@FusionComet can i get a sub back plz? Im trying to reach 300 before my birthday. Its on August 2nd
Shadow doesn't look bad in CGI but looks weird outside of CGI
Just like every other character basically
Yeah when anyone is not in an CGI cutscene, their eye pupils look like thin cat slits. Not entirely but close enough.
He has the best design with CGI and without why because he his the ultimate life form
Sonic 06 might as well be a movie, it has some of the best cut scenes I’ve ever seen, they still hold up today minus the lack of textures.
I agree 3 years later
A lot of sonic games from this area have insane pre-rendered cutscenes.
Shadow the Hedgehog, Sonic 06, Riders, Secret Rings, Black Knight, Riders Zero Gravity
Watching the CG cutscenes of Sonic heroes (2003) in comparison to Shadow The Hedgehog (2005) there is an insane difference in quality.
@@haydenz0I think unleashed was amazing too..
Glad to see shadow at Area 51 raid
LMFAO
This video looks so clean and it's almost 10 years old.
OMG, only 4 days left for this video to be 10 years old
actually it’s almost 20 years old
This is why Keanu Reeves is a perfect cast for Shadow
He needs to sound just like Jason in order for it to be great
@@nazomius7033 He doesn't need to sound like Jason, I believe Keanu will do a good job as the voice actor of Shadow
@@lightchaos4204 He has to use Jason as a good source for his voice
@@nazomius7033 I don't think he needs too. His own take alone is what makes keanu's keanu's shadow tbh.
No he doesn't. His voice is perfect for Shadow the Hedgehog. As an wise group of friends once said "It's not too hard mimic Shadow"@@nazomius7033
0:40 anyway... i gotta break in the *WOAH*
Ah. There it is. Good ol SnapCube
finally, fandub reference
SA2 Shadow - Cheesy Likable Anti-hero
Shadow the Hedgehog - Emo
Sonic 06 Shadow - *ABSOLUTE BADASS*
Modern Shadow - Literally just another NPC
How is he cheesy in sa2? Lol
Because of the lines he said before he learned to respect Sonic
The I'm the coolest for example
And boom shadow?
We all love the heroic by the end Shadow in SA2, but 06 is the way to go
@@eternalphantom3384 "fRieNds mAke yOu wEAk!" thats Boom Shadow lol
Honestly, Shadow was the strongest point of this game. Not that there are many strong points to compete with, but still.
There's many strong points in this game
And Shadow is indeed one of them
I feel like the OST is the strong point but Shadow easily had the best gameplay. Finally getting to use all of his Chaos powers in normal gameplay was fantastic.
- the OST is amazing, one of my favorites in the series
- most characters stayed true to their Adventure era portrayals (this game has the best Shadow, Eggman is almost as threatening as he was in SA2, Sonic stays pretty consistent and Silver does his job as the new character)
- levels are actually pretty fun (and P-06 shows this)
- Mephiles is arguably one of the greatest villains in the series
- gorgeous CGI cutscenes
What *really* killed this game was:
- plot holes and the unnecessary romance (the script definetely needed another draft)
- characters were good conceptually but the devs didn't have time to make them fun to play
- glitches
- subpar voice acting and godawful cutscenes
Sonic 06 isn't an unsalvageable mess, it's just not finished
@@Shadex_JoestarAnd Project '06 finished what vanilla started.
Shadow the Hedgehog is truly a badass. I hope he plays an important role in Sonic Forces, as well as the return of G.U.N.!
T_T
T_T
He did in the DLC
I shouldn't of been DLC in sonic forces...my episode should've been unlocked by maybe getting all red star rings, or getting an S rank in all stages. That eould of been better than spending all their lives just making DLC for an okay game.
Well, uh
Most badass opening ever throughout the entire Sonic franchise
I wish Shadow had more badass moments like this, but nah, they made him a background character
Actually he’s probably the most important character in the story besides silver. Sonic literally does nothing except save Elise in this plot. He has no connection to Iblis, Mephiles nothing. He’s absolutely useless in this game
Anyway,I'm gonna break into- W O A H
Ezio: "I will blend in the crowd to get to my target undetected."
Sam Fisher: "I will use darkness and technology as a cover to infiltrate any facility."
Shadow: "I will charge at full speed at the main entrance in full view, said entrance being guarded by a small army, and will subsequently destroy the whole army all by myself."
I think Shadow purposefully throws stealth out the window for the sake of badassery (no complaints, it works) XD
Lol true
But then hides behind barrels to keep out of the spot light lol
@@skaionex imo at that point I think it was merely for the sake of being able to listen to the call he received XD
@@Skillfulstone most likely. Was being humourous
@@skaionex Would've been funny to see him receive the call in the middle of a small war, casually responding XD
"Hey, wristband, tell me my future"
The new MGS looks great
It really be SHADOW Moses huh
@@Usernamesdontmatter1 It really was the BIG Shell
This is my favourite cutscene in the game. I always come back to it because it makes Shadow looks so cool.
The op is damn awesome
I actually really like shadows VA in this game
Jason Griffith I believe...or was it Kirk Thornton? Either way it's one of the two
Jason Griffith. He was Shadow's voice actor from "Shadow the Hedgehog" up until "Sonic Boom". He's my personal favorite voice actor for Shadow.
@@domigamerblocktrieon9778 Same, the new voice is too gritty imo, doesn't sound as serious. Really a shame Griffith didn't stay.
@@domigamerblocktrieon9778 what are you dumb? jason griffith didn't voice shadow until sonic boom he voiced him until sonic and the black knight
THE BEST INTRODUCTION EVER!!!!
Shadow’s basically the winter soldier of the Sonic Franchise
2006 year, and it's STILL FUCKING AMAZING!
The rest of budget was problably all out in those Incredible cutscenes XD
@@Zextorm probably :)
It's 2024 now and still that scene is the best scene in Sonic games.
Anyone here after Sonic 2?
Yes-
Me! ME!!!
0:20 Okay, I can't be the ONLY person who thinks this scene is like something out of Metal Gear Solid, and Shadow's voice when saying "Initiating the mission now." sounds like Snake, which to me, is freaking awesome. All thats left is to give him a game over scene with the agent screaming Shadow in panic. XD
You forgot the cutscene where Shadow kicks Silver in the head.
That's not in the intro.
@@ling_a_bling r/woosh
You what....
It's no use !
What did you expect?
Aaaahhh I see. Shadow takes the same route as me in a stealth mission.
Screw what everyone thought of 06 you gotta admit that Shadows entrance in his story was pretty sick here ❤️
This game is so good
most badass scene that i ever seen
One of the best 3D animated scenes in the entire franchise
Only one person at area 51
Government: hahaha
The one person:
“Darn robots. Taking my job of being bland.”
0:40 Anyway I’m gonna break into the- WOAH
I have been playing this game on a GD tv with a HDMI cable and I have to say THIS is the best HD I've seen.
This opening is awesome.
0:40 Shadow : "My planet needs me"
The GOAT in action!
It’s like the robots are not even trying
❤️🖤 Shadow's Infiltration.💥
Esta parte de Shadow es genial me encanta mucho, no importa que digan que es malo para mi es increíble ❤❤❤❤
Cinematic scenes like this are just too groundbreaking to be in any Sonic game, in my opinion:
This could've been our Theatrical Version of Sonic The Hedgehog, look at Happy Feet, Astro Boy & TMNT (2007)
What’s wrong with “groundbreaking” cutscenes in a game?
@@WickedBowserJr Nothing, the issue is CGI cutscenes like 06 are more polished than what we usually get with the films I described upon release date. While Pixar and DreamWorks revolutionized the medium with their textures, this game looked way ahead of it's time with stunning Visuals.
The music in the background....I FUCKING NEED IT FOR MY EDGY MUSIC COLLECTION!!
06 shadow was the best
I'm gonna-WOW
Man looks at this! Looks an Final Fantasy cutscene, Damn this game was going to be Incredible
The game was bad as hell.... But This was just plain BADASS.... But that's Shadow everything he does is BADASS!!!!.... And the CGI style of his is Crazy dope!!
0:42 WOAH
“Wristband tell me my future “
And we never got to use chaos control in this game.
The CG Cutscene looks really good, though.
Cinematic as usual
you know it.
10 YEARS LATE SQUAD WHERE YOU AT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?
*OLHA ESSE GRAFICO VEI,QUE LINDO DA PORRA :3*
Shadow making his return to the big screen! Can’t wait!
Shadow teleported on some G shit. 💯
Bro was so ready to go that he got his mission briefing AFTER he broke in
Alright, im gonna break into- WHOA!
Seriously tho i love this cutscene
Fuck what people say, Sonic 06 is my favorite Sonic game
so shadow would have made sense to use guns in this game considering hes working for the military he technically does as his vehicles have them attached.
Shadow in shadow Moses
Oh crap light!
Love this intro, but can we talk about that he try to be stealth after he destroy a squad of robots while he is able to teleport anywhere ? 🤣
It’s not about being logical, it’s about sending a message. In style.
@@erikweltz8187 Ahaha, I accept this answer. 😎
please make an HD version of Sonic 06 on the Wii U PS4 and Xbox One Sega and Sonic Team
it already is in HD -_-
+MeTheNinja I meant with less to NO glitches
don`t ask the impossible too :P
There is a Pc Remake of Sonic 06
Where was he keeping the communicator though the only thing I can think of is under the cuff of his glove
So let me get this straight, Shadow killed like everyone in GUN and then he starts working for them?
dem Storm troopers
I like this new shadow the hedgehog 2 or metal gear. " yes I played the but i rarely experienced glitches
I love this cutscene but i always wonder why does he hide from the lights if he just destroy hundreds of robots and if they wen on its because they all ready now he's their
movie with these graphics pls
I HOPE THAT SHADOW WIL BE IN THE POST CREDIT SCENE IN MY DAD THE BOUNTY HUNTER SEASON 2 THAT WILL BE PERFECT
"How did I blow you up? How did I blow you up?"

Mario Franchise has Luigi but Sonic Franchise has Shadow!
Dont compare the ultimate life form with a ridiculous green plumber that just jump and broke blocks
When Area 51 bust out:
Sonic fans:
Shadow Raids Area 51
Ahh I clicked on a sonic game help me I do love sonic forces
Not just around here I’m the lifeform to surpass the ultimate lifeform himself

Anyone know where I could find a clean version of this opening guitar riff?
I don't know, but here's the song m.th-cam.com/video/4E3stYquCBs/w-d-xo.html
A WHOLE DECADE LATE SQUAD WHERE YOU AT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Bad game yet still a badass
That was supposed to say HD tv
Shadow Moses
Everyone here talking about Area 51, and my first thought was “holy shit is shadow on shadow moses?!”
Shadow works for gun since when?
Shadow in shadow moses
Call of Duty,but you're playing as black Sonic.
Metal gear shadow Moses
What is this? Metal Gear Solid Sonic Edition?
Shadow is just too cool and badass
The great storytelling in this game is overlooked due to people who haven't even played the game focusing on only the glitches and flawed gameplay.
The only great storytelling comes from Shadow's perspective. And even then, it's not as great as it could have been since it's connected to this game's mess of a story in general.
Exactly, I feel like Shadow's story is better than the other three but unfortunately one out of four doesn't save this game's overall story
@@HareemByron
They should have had the guy who wrote Shadow's story write the whole game.
Better than Pontac and Graff, am I right?
@@HareemByron
Oh, definitely. Shiro Maekawa has written some of the best stuff in the series. Him and the director of Generations, Hiroshi Miyamoto, are two of the best writers at Sonic Team.
Shadow hoo😂
The only good part of sonic 06 is shadow
What kind of the G.U.N. agents are Shadow the Hedgehog and Rouge the Bat, Stormyy?
i think ones that would never fail a mission idk
Oh yeah? Well, both Shadow the Hedgehog and Rouge the Bat might totally treat Buzz the Honey Nut Cheerios Bee like their fellow G.U.N. agent, Stormyy.
The only good thing inbthis game
