There are 7 fully 3D stages, which casually take at least 4 minutes to beat each. All of them are bangers, with the weakest one probably being Rail Canyon just for the fact that rail switching in this game is a lot slower than in other games. The 2D stages are also the best a Modern-style console game has ever had. ALL of them slapped. Shadow's gameplay is not a reskin of Sonic. This feels very specifically made for him, and the game takes heavy advantage of his distinct moveset. They made a gameplay style that keeps the core idea of what Sonic is, but made it stick out in its own way. I genuinely want "Shadow" to become its own sub-series now. I really hope they use this development team to make more Shadow, while the main team continues on with Sonic's future titles. While I loved Unleashed, that style of boost gameplay is not something I particularly like a whole lot or want. Frontiers, Dream Team, and now Shadow Generations feel like a brand new type of boost gameplay that I vastly prefer, the slower type of boost gameplay that isn't afraid to slow down when needed. Three games of this style in now, it seems like thats here to stay which is amazing. We need more of this, and I especially want more of this version of Shadow gameplay.

I just found this game insanely boring. The story was kinda bad, and the ending was baffling. Just tells you through text on a black background what happens and then credits. Its worth it if you get it on sale for like $5

The visuals are incredible in this game. I thought RE2 and RE3 Remake looked great, but this looks like a huge leap. It really shows best playing for yourself instead of screenshots or videos. I really enjoyed the way they tied RE2 into RE4's story alot more. Leon in RE2 and OG RE4 felt so wildly different, it was hard to see them as the same person. Leon in Remake is motivated by his failure to save people in Racoon City, which was such a great touch. This feels like the real, proper sequel to RE2 now. I just really liked this game. I still do prefer the more Metroidvania-type level design of RE2R, and to a lesser degree, RE3R, but I still really enjoyed this. I truly understand now why RE4 is so legendary.

Honestly had a really good time, until the last few chapters. Shit just nosedived for me personally starting in Chapter 11. Aside from that though, I actually liked it a fair bit. The main cast is all really great. Sazh the absolute goat.

To be honest, I don't have much to say about this. It's a decent time, but it wasn't anything special. It was fairly buggy though, like clipping through walls multiple times and such. That's about all I can say about this game though, it was alright.

Honestly? Way better game than I thought it would be. The level themes (except the first zone) were really creative. I really liked Ego City (Eg-ocity?😉), probably because it gave me a lil bit of a Coruscant vibe, with the mixture of old Roman style architecture and more modern, high tech architecture. The real highlight of this game was the bonus zone that you can unlock after you beat the campaign. These levels were designed so insanely well around each character's moveset. On top of that, the levels were all fairly challenging too. Overall this was a great time. It's really cool to see SEGA Hardlight try and make a full 3D game after over a decade of making Sonic Dash games. I really would love to see them become almost like a Dimps and keep making smaller scale games like this.

Terrible manual camera, and alot of waiting that got frustrating. Besides that, pretty good Monkey Ball-like. I've played a few clones and this was definitely the best by a long shot. Good game.

Honestly it's a banger if you just play it like a normal Monkey Ball game and ignore the missions. Had alot more fun playing that way. This game isnt too crazy, but yknow what, its finally a real come back to Monkey Ball 1 and 2. Good game, dont have much more to say.
