Board 8 > Rate the Game: Shadow the Hedgehog

(+) Yeah! (+)

Rules:
- Rate from 0 to 10 (one decimal place is fine, more than that and I'll round for you). I'd prefer if 5 were an average rather than 7.
- You may vote for any games you want that have been rated before at any time. You may also change your vote at any time.
- No alts, no joke voting, no “purposeful downvoting” - you all know this.
- Please only vote if you've played enough of the game to be able to rate it.
- You may nominate as many games as you want on any given day. Multiple noms of the same game aren't necessary.

B8 does not accept very difficult games with open arms it seems

Today's game is a 3-D game set in the Sonic Universe, so it probably won't do well

5/10

Bad, but sort of enjoyable if you're a Sonic fan, and it has an incredible soundtrack. Never Turn Back and I Am... All Of Me in particular make up for the atrocious voice acting.

7.5/10

Because on its own merit from gameplay, it's about an 8.2, 8.3, but the story was so bad that it became like a 6.8.

Terrible level design with only 4-5 decent stages, terrible plot with numerous rehashed endings to boot, ear sore graphics and art design, and ridiculously simplistic gameplay.

Gameplay isn't very good, but the story is just so terrible that it wraps around to being kind of funny.

Gameplay was inoffensive, but nowhere near good enough to play the eight or so times you need to 100% it. Pretty much unmemorable outside of the terrible dialog.

Pretty much the only thing it does decently is the music. And that's only decently.

This is coming from someone who previously based his main accounts username on the character because of this game. Back when I had garbage taste in Sonic games.
