Shadow the Hedgehog Returns in Sonic X Shadow Generations

Sonic Generations, released in 2011, introduced the unique concept of combining Sonic’s classic 2D side-scrolling style with his modern 3D version. Now, the game is making a comeback with a remastered version titled Sonic X Shadow Generations, featuring the brooding Shadow the Hedgehog as the main star. This standalone adventure shakes up the Sonic formula, taking inspiration from the recent Sonic Frontiers game. Shadow Generations brings back the Boost mechanic and adds a new one called Chaos Control, allowing Shadow to freeze time and manipulate the environment. The game opens with an exciting level set in outer space, where players can experience distorted reality and a mini-boss fight against Doom’s Eye. The second level features a boss fight against Biolizard from Sonic Adventures 2, showcasing cinematic cutscenes and Shadow’s powerful Chaos Spears attack. Sonic X Shadow Generations is set to launch on October 25 for multiple platforms, offering a fun return for the black hedgehog.

Tomb Raider Remastered Trilogy Update Removes Lara Croft Pinup Posters

The Tomb Raider I-III Remastered trilogy has undergone an update that has notably removed several pinup posters of Lara Croft from the third game. Previously, these images could be found in the Sleeping with the Fishes level, but they have now disappeared from the remastered version of the game. The change appears to have occurred with the game’s second major update, which rolled out on April 11th. It’s unclear why the posters were removed, as there is no mention of them in the patch notes. The original graphics option still features the images. The removal of the posters has sparked controversy among fans, with many accusing developers Aspyr and Crystal Dynamics of censorship. The franchise’s official website had previously highlighted the posters as an interesting detail. Despite the game’s warning that players may encounter offensive material, the team had initially chosen to keep the content intact to present the game in its original form. IGN has reached out to Aspyr and Crystal Dynamics for comment.
