Shadow with a gun is still one of the most surreal things I saw as a child.

[@naughtmeinam4603]

It was the strangest feeling ever. I was, like, 8 when I rented it from Hastings. I don't remember quite how I felt about it.

[@Tashwampa]

Yeah that was weird as hell. The opening is lit though so I guess I can forgive the game for confusing me.

[@cirnosnumberfan6449]

I honestly thought it was natural.

[@blondeboi4444]

@@fewerspeaser2004 lol maybe they could add it in as like a Gag-reference not saying he would shoot but point the gun at someone to scare them for omitting him information. 🤣 perfectly balanced.

​@fewerspeaser2004 I am not a sonic fanatic but I loved this game lol. Why are ppl to this day saying this game was a flop? Shadow killing a dude and picking up a gun doesn't sound like the most inaccurate possibility ever

This opening is so ridiculously over the top that it reaches a point where I can't even cringe at it. I Am All of Me is so catchy I can't help but feel like a kid who just found out what "the f word" means. I love this game in all of its bizarre absurdity

[@theredeft5319]

It’s definitely so ridiculous that is cool somehow. I dunno my dumb teenage self loved it and I still think it kinda slaps all these years later even though I can see how ridiculous it is.

Aside from the cool music, the main reason I like this intro is because it strongly reminds me of the game 'Prototype'.
