Sonic X Shadow Generations is a great title for newer fans who want to check out the games after Sonic the Hedgehog 3, as well as long-time fans who have fond memories of the Sonic Adventure titles. Shadow Generations has gotten the majority of praise given to Sonic X Shadow Generations for good reason, considering it brings the last 24 years of the black hedgehog's story to a close. However, Sonic Generations manages to surprise die-hard fans in its own way.
