Theres that one episode where he owns everybody. Agreed. In the games, he certainly isn't as OP as in the Anime. But some games just use him for fanservice, like Sanik Bum, both games. He doesn't really have a purpose and they screwed up his personality(not as much as the other characters got screwed up, but he certainly is not like: "Blahblah, friends make you weak!")

And he got his own game. Not like Knuckles Chaotix where they only used Knuckles to connect the Chaotix to the Sonic franchise without Sonic stealing the spotlight or the two Tails spin-offs from the same year noone remembers. He got a modern game with a story revolving around him, two super forms and stuff. I don't know how good or bad it was, but why don't other characters get their own games too? Silver, Knuckles and Blaze certainly have the potential! But NO, of course not. They rather create a new character than working properly with the ones existing.

And then, there's the rumor that his death in SA2 was supposed to be permanent, but he got revived because fans. I don't know whether that's true or not, but if you have a character having an epic death scene, it makes that scene look STUPID when in a future game, they're all like: "It's okay, folks. He's fine." I know that StH was trying to explain why Shadow returned, but I haven't played it, so I can't tell. I haven't touched Boom with a 10 foot pole so I can't say much.;

Shadow is hated becaues classic fans can't accept guns in Sonic.

I don't mind him coming back although they should have waited a bit. In heroes they were playing around with the android concept a bit. And now, we have Andronic the Abomination! xD

Dear god... When my cousin shown me that I couldn't believe it.
