"Suffering defeat after defeat, that man's body was reaching its limit... Breaking down... But... He couldn't fall. The man had a job that must be done... Overcome every barrier, without falling into defeat ever again... Become THAT being... Be Infinite"
or make him like omega... from megaman. that guy was an absolute nightmare once u faced him. with him going I AM THE MESSIAH! before absolutely dunking on your ass. with infinite beating sonic i felt the same fear. until i whooped his ass in like 10 seconds? jeez... they should of made him a dlc or afterstory boss.
I think Infinite’s backstory would’ve been fine if they placed the whole ‘weak’ angle into less of him having his ego bruised but rather that he feels weak because he failed the Jackal Squad and couldn’t protect them from Shadow. That small change would literally fix him at least to me.
Having the rest of the squad come back empowered by him and the phantom ruby as quasi-final bosses (aka the final boss of a game) could have spawned a multi game arc with him being the final boss of the arc. Heck you could have played with his morality with infinite with him swooping in at the last second to save them when they were defeated so in his view, they can learn from it to get stronger by that defeat to have a super boss rush (with moves that try to counter the original strategy to beating them) before the final bout with Infinite Eh one can dream.
the fact that the wiki literally says "the jackal then proceeded to throw a tantrum over how weak he was" is sad, honestly. bro could have been one of the best villains :(
Infinite needs a second chance to be a better villan and needs to have a better reason to be a villain than just being called weak, in my opinion Infinite is like silver, they both had so much potential but the game messed up their characters and made them into clowns, but unlike infinite they fixed silver later along the way, I just hope they give him another chance in a well developed sonic game.
His motivation of being called weak could actually work pretty well IF they incorporated The End into the Phantom Ruby, like have it be another form of it. "Why be Zero when you could be Infinite"
@@nullandvoid7524 I guess being called weak could kinda work if only they show why he would hate being called weak maybe some kinda tragic backstory or something, but the way they was kinda lazy and made him look like a infant throwing a temper-tamprum

the idea to have the origin track get COMPLETELY sideswiped by the main theme taking center stage is literally genius and it’s executed with perfection
Infinite was so much wasted potential, and stuff like this just proves it. It only uses music already directly attached to Infinite and/or the Phantom Ruby in-game, but there was somehow so much added emotion in it. This time it’s more than “one of the first results when you look up ‘edgelord theme’”. The “Birth of Infinite” scene already establishes pretty well that the guy isn’t mentally stable, but leading up to that score with the Phantom Ruby’s weird noise played normally and then _backwards_ as if to emphasize that we’re going back to before the Ruby was ever a part of this, it already feels like “but let’s go a little deeper, shall we?” And layering his different boss themes into his normal theme not only sounds really cool from a listening standpoint, it feels like it wants to say that Infinite himself has layers within his unhinged whole. And the interlude with the Null Space theme? It’s like it’s saying not all is as it seems; if you could but see beyond the illusion, into his deepest core; if you only knew the full story… That’s SEGA and Sonic Team for ya, I guess. Makin' all these cool characters and then not using them properly. Sigh.

Once again, the RUclips algorithm has worked it's magic after I watched a video that rewrote the entire plot of this game. And I was not disappointed. Absolute banger.
Here's my personal idea for a better Infinite backstory: Before leading the Jackal squad, he was a completely innocent Jackal whose town was assaulted by Eggman and he failed to protect his home, leading to him becoming insecure about his strength and then gaining hatred for Eggman. In order to prove his strength, he creates the Jackal Squad mercenary group with the end all goal of taking down eggman. However when raidjig one of Eggman's bases, Infinite made a critical error in judgement that caused his whole team to be wiped out, and then he was brutalized by Shadow who mocked him for being weak. Eggman then took his body and experimented on fusing him with the phantom ruby and ended up altering his memories to show Sonic and his team attacking the village and being the cause of every bad event in his life. This fractures his mind and causes him to become hell bent on gaining more power. Wait wtf, this is a kids game. Why am I doing this
Because this Parallels Shadow's story so WELL! While Shadow was trying to figure himself out, he caused someone else to feel that same pain he was, and Forces could have been about Shadow coming to terms with what he did to another person that led to so much destruction, all while helping Sonic get through to Infinite! THAT would have been a great story, and it would also connect Infinite to Whisper (IDW is canon, remember that) which provides another way to tie Shadow into the main cast later down the line, maybe even helping him to be a bit more... willing to listen... by the time we get to the Zombot mess! And remember in Forces, the Phantom Ruby's replacements were obviously fakes, we as the players could see the glitching. Maybe that glitching could have been from the fact that Infinite's mind wasn't clear or whole, distorting the Phantom Ruby's power! We could've seen this jackal in the Zombot mess, and his illusions would be a lot more solid, maybe even causing distractions for the Zombots and messing with the Deadly Six! Also, in the Zombot fight, we see our main characters genuinely suffering, so maybe at least showing some slight signs of Sonic struggling after the 6 months of torture would be helpful, and a flashback during the Zombot arc when Infinite would show up? SEGA YOU COULD HAVE DONE ALL OF THIS IF YOU HAD WRITTEN INFINITE RIGHT! Actually, no, wait, I'LL write this or something.
This is a really cool idea, but unfortunately there’s already a comic kinda telling some of how he became infinite. Basically, he was the leader of the jackal squad, nearly beat eggman, who was experimenting with the phantom ruby (which infinite hits, showing them both a world that could be and that intrigued them both) and infinite kinda just says “yeah I’m bored of being a merc and always winning anyway” and joins eggman Your idea is so much cooler though, can we get that please
I already liked infinite, because his power was the pure opposite of the chaos emeralds because it feeds on his mind rather then his heart. But this makes him 10 times better then he already was
It's like I'm paranoid, looking over my back It's like a whirlwind inside of my head It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin
really the song goes so much deeper into the character,past,personality, motives and essence of Infinite yet Sega butchered it to keep tiny toddlers safe from gory and dark theme of the character by straight up making him act like a genuine fool. the songs speaks for itself but sega destroyed what might have been the most tragic and dark character in Sonic's history.
First off, this composition is god tier. I kinda wish it was in the real game now, and I actually sang along with the lyrics. On a funnier note, my kitten was watching me sing, and I actually motioned towards her all dramatically like I was serenading her, and she just kept giving me this look like, "You're weird mom."
I get your analogy, but thankfully we didn't have any "sigma male" tryhard in the 2010's. We just had arrogant losers that later became those "sigma male" tryhards and are the ones we laugh at in the internet.
@@dylanrodriguez-rb3udHe ain't dead. He's actually trapped inside the Phantom Ruby… meaning he can potentially be unleashed to wreak havoc on the world once more if only someone dared find it again.
I agree with you. One of the only things I love about Sonic Forces is their sick music, including "Infinite". People say that there's more potential that is wasted to its current state, and I agree. If only Sonic Team made it as cool as Sonic Unleashed and Generations.
Woah!! Infinite’s theme was already amazing, but this…..this is just….a masterpiece!! I wish this is how it originally was!! It gives off even more of a villainous vibe. This edit is very well done! Amazing job! Definitely saving this to my favorites! 👏👏👏
@BaconHaxer dude if it's old doesn't mean it's cringe, tbh the modern day rn has a lot more cringe than the old times, this includes roblox which is full of dumb daters, scammers and gambling, if you said roblox is in the 2000s then at the time roblox wasn't like that at all, you see now also fortnite which has multiple kids playing with who rages when losing and takes the games too seriously, an old nostalgic and funny joke is cringe but the modern stuff rn aren't cringe? Dude this only says that you're just as cringe as those people
I just started learning more about this game and I searched up remixes for this guys theme! He’s pretty cool to me and I think they should bring him back for a second chance but anyway, I heard about 13 different remixes and this one here turned out to be my favorite bro! Very well crafted!
Well, I just discovered an Easter egg in this song I can't unhear. If you listen closely in the first 35 seconds, you can hear faint screams. I put the song on a equalizer and set to a custom setting, bass boosting the song, and I was able to hear said screams.
Re work of infinites backstory ig. Made it edgy af coz why not. The battlefield was chaos incarnate. Fire raged and steel clashed as Shadow the Hedgehog carved through Eggman’s forces like a phantom of vengeance. Standing between him and victory was a jackal, the leader of the infamous Jackal Squad-a soldier feared across the wastelands for his deadly cunning. His name was unimportant then, but his reputation preceded him. They called him the Reaper of the Sands. The squad’s mission was to defend one of Eggman’s deadliest creations: a towering machine housing a weapon of unspeakable destruction-a black hole bomb. Shadow’s purpose was simple: destroy it and leave nothing standing. The Jackal Squad fought savagely, their leader a whirlwind of claws and steel. But Shadow was relentless. One by one, the jackals fell, their lives extinguished in the wake of his power. Their leader refused to retreat, standing his ground as Shadow tore through his comrades. Even as the bomb began to destabilize, Infinite fought with fury unmatched. But Shadow was faster. Smarter. Deadlier. In a single decisive blow, he destroyed the machine. The resulting explosion unleashed the bomb's horrifying power. A black hole erupted, its event horizon consuming everything in its path. Shadow, with Chaos Control, narrowly escaped the grasp of oblivion. From a safe vantage, he turned back to witness the nightmare. The Jackal Squad, every last one of them, was caught in the gravitational maw. Time twisted cruelly as they were stretched and torn apart, their bodies unraveling into strands of nothingness. Their screams echoed across the void. The jackal leader-the one who would come to be known as Infinite-stood at the edge of the event horizon. The Chaos Emerald gifted by Eggman saved him from the immediate pull, encasing him in a fragile bubble of energy. But salvation was its own torment. As his comrades reached out, their forms dissolving into strands of nothingness, he reached back. His arm extended, fingers straining to grasp theirs, but the distance between them stretched forever. His screams joined theirs, a roar of anguish that reverberated through the void. Time fractured. For Shadow, it was over in seconds. But for the jackal, those seconds stretched into eons. Trapped at the edge of the black hole, he felt his mind fragmenting under the weight of eternity. The emerald protected his body, but not his soul. The black hole whispered to him, its voice a cruel melody of infinite despair and endless rage. When the jackal finally emerged, he was no longer the soldier he once was. His armor, warped by the black hole’s energy, had become jagged and menacing. His helmet, carved from the remains of his shattered mind, bore a visage of unspeakable terror. He had forged it himself during his imprisonment, each jagged edge a reminder of his failure and his suffering. He no longer needed a name; he was Infinite-a being beyond comprehension, born of despair, and forged in the fires of madness. The black hole had not destroyed him. It had remade him. Its immense energy had seeped into his very being, granting him power over reality itself. He could twist the world to his will, warp existence into a reflection of his eternal pain. Shadow watched in stunned silence as Infinite emerged from the void. His aura was suffocating, a storm of raw hatred and grief. Shadow could see it in his eyes: the jackal was no longer alive in the way mortals were. He was something else now, a revenant of rage, carrying the torment of infinity within him. Infinite’s voice, when it came, was a guttural snarl, laced with venom and sorrow. “You escaped. They didn’t. And now… I will make sure you understand what it means to lose everything.” Shadow said nothing. There was nothing he could say. He had created this monster, this being of infinite suffering. And Infinite would ensure that the world would never forget it.
U know...like instead of the ass beat he got from shadow which made him crash out for being weak type backstory thought about tying it with a black hole or something
This is actually sick as shit man, nice job, I really wished that they gave infinite a more tragic backstory like this. In all honesty, they kind of did him dirty for a character with so much potential 😊
You know, there is an alternative backstory aswell, since infinite wouldn't say "friends are nothing but fleeting illusions", that one nearly reffers of him being betrayed first time, the 2nd he got betrayed is eggman. Infinite wouldn't that friends fleeting illusion part, if the jackal squad were really his friends. Its what i believe.
I think that someone commenting on a different video said it best: Infinite is a villain who is accidentally similar to real life people who think they’re so badass, only to throw temper tantrums when someone beats them
“Battle by battle, this Jackal’s corpse was weakening. Being consumed inside out. But a jewel with the power of illusion would save him. Granting him the power to make all yield to the Phantom. And then he gone from Zero… to Infinity.”
I can just picture the next open world sonic game. A set of side quests lead to a surprise return of Infinite and you fight him hand to hand Frontiers style and this remix plays, would be so awesome.
Funny thing; I have a frontiers mod that replaces tower with Infinite, and whenever I fight Tower I play this music, and even better, I have a shadow mod
Infinite can literally manipulate reality, making him one of, if not the strongest sonic character. I NEED a game where his full potential is expressed and his backstory is fixed
I wish others would talk more about the addition of guitars in this remix. Especially at 1:15, 1:28 and 1:42 adding counter melodies to the chords that are played in the original. This is a new arrangement choice that was added deliberately, and I think it would have been pretty difficult considering the original already had a decent amount of space in the mix filled in by the chords alone. Taking down some of the mids on the main instrumental to give room for it must have been difficult but it sounds better as a result. The chorus at the beginning is also really interesting with the mix blanketing the guitars to the point of actually being unable to hear the strumming mostly. The synths are also a bit low on it too I think. But that decision is cool I think because on the later chorus where you added the other guitars again for the melodics it pushes a different kind of urgent feeling, even if the notes are just a few. I like this mix good job on it.
I really want to see a return or re attempt to make infinite a better villain or something. Everything from what his backstory could be to his powers gives him so much potential, but the fact that he hates shadow and the others just because he was called weak is stupid. He wanted to protect his comrades, so that could have been a far better reason to stick to. I think he was an awesome villain, but there's so much wasted potential for him
It's effectively Z Broly syndrome; Broly on the face of it is a really interesting contrasting character, as a literalization of "the legendary super saiyan", but his original execution is widely criticized for being motivated by a literal crying baby. Great character concept kneecapped by an absolutely dogshit backstory and character motivation.
Still to this day, Infinite is one of the best villains out there. I always love the fact how infinite's theme's first lines are just a reference to Zavok, Chaos, Metal Sonic, and Shadow. Although, on my opinion, I kinda was hoping instead of Shadow, it would be Mephiles. But I ain't complaining. It all goes hard. All we need now is a new sonic game with Infinite as the main villain this time instead of having Eggman as the last villain to defeat..
“Machine, I will cut. You. Down. Break you apart. Splay the gore of your profane form across the stars! I will grind you down until the very *SPARKS* cry for mercy! My hands shall *RELISH* ENDING YOU *HERE AND NOW!* “
Limbo... Lust... All gone... With Gluttony soon to follow... Your kind know nothing but hunger, purged all life on the upper layers, and yet they remain, unsatiated, as do you... You've taken everything from me machine
You know, I kind of hope they make Infinite part of the movie canon. I think they could do him justice without the need for shoehorning in Classic Sonic and the OC.
This song and just the visual design of Infinite was the entire reason I got back into sonic after years, but then they just didn't use him to his full potential. A shame for a cool looking character
0:41 "Machine I Will cut You down, Break You apart, Splay The gore- Your profane form across The stars, I Will grind you down until the very sparks cry for mercy, My hands shall relish Ending You here and now"
When I first saw Infinite, I honestly thought he was going to be like some sort of eldritch god or higher dimensional being since his cubes looked like tesseracts. Would of loved if they went down that route.
0:51 "Machine... I will Cut you down, Break you Apart, SPLAY THE GORE OF YOUR PROFANE FORM ACROSS THE STARS!" "I will Grind you down Until the VERY SPARKS CRY FOR MERCY!" "MY HANDS SHALL RELISH ENDING YOU, HERE, AND, NOW!"

i've seen some others but yes this track definitely tries to be better than the original
Why is this not like, the most popular remix? This is incredible.
this song hits harder than an abusive uncle yet the man in question acts like a "sigma male" tryhard you meet in a COD lobby in the 2010's
That was... oddly specific... You good, buddy?
@@DimentioFan1 yeah
@@gavindavis3683 Okay good.
I get your analogy, but thankfully we didn't have any "sigma male" tryhard in the 2010's. We just had arrogant losers that later became those "sigma male" tryhards and are the ones we laugh at in the internet.
@DimentioFan1But he's not wrong, he just got a unorthodox way of describing a crazy bitch.
Dude this is something else. That fade in from orchestra to hard rock got me off guard, but I love it
His Concept carried him beyond his Simple execution.
Infinite needs a second chance in the Sonic franchise.
Honestly, if it means his theme getting a reprisal, then hell yes.
Too bad he is dead though.
@@dylanrodriguez-rb3udHe ain't dead. He's actually trapped inside the Phantom Ruby… meaning he can potentially be unleashed to wreak havoc on the world once more if only someone dared find it again.
@@kyuubimakai009so just ignore canon for a random twitter post
@@ecolaboiMaybe temporarily dead?
I agree with you. One of the only things I love about Sonic Forces is their sick music, including "Infinite". People say that there's more potential that is wasted to its current state, and I agree. If only Sonic Team made it as cool as Sonic Unleashed and Generations.
this is actually one of the best sonic remixes ive ever heard keep up the good work 👍
Sonic: revengeance
The only thing it takes to be infinite
The part that goes “This pain, persists! I can’t, resist.” Always goes hard.
Woah!! Infinite’s theme was already amazing, but this…..this is just….a masterpiece!! I wish this is how it originally was!! It gives off even more of a villainous vibe. This edit is very well done! Amazing job! Definitely saving this to my favorites! 👏👏👏

@Seeks_Chase says the roblox dude
@@zsupper how's it cringe if it's old as hell?
@BaconHaxer dude if it's old doesn't mean it's cringe, tbh the modern day rn has a lot more cringe than the old times, this includes roblox which is full of dumb daters, scammers and gambling, if you said roblox is in the 2000s then at the time roblox wasn't like that at all, you see now also fortnite which has multiple kids playing with who rages when losing and takes the games too seriously, an old nostalgic and funny joke is cringe but the modern stuff rn aren't cringe? Dude this only says that you're just as cringe as those people
BEST VERSION OF THE SONG!!!!! This feels like a true medley of Infinite, and the only word I can use to describe it is EPIC!!!!!
Edgy in the bad sense of the word. But that’s all the charm!
This is by far one of the best remixes I've heard for this theme! Would love an instrumental at some point!
Your wish has been granted
6 months ago? Good to know theres people out there still willing to do things for this theme, its amazing
How on earth does this have under 100K views? This is fire man, true talent
Edit: Broken 100K! Onwards to a million!

I just started learning more about this game and I searched up remixes for this guys theme! He’s pretty cool to me and I think they should bring him back for a second chance but anyway, I heard about 13 different remixes and this one here turned out to be my favorite bro! Very well crafted!
this is... this Art.

Well, I just discovered an Easter egg in this song I can't unhear. If you listen closely in the first 35 seconds, you can hear faint screams. I put the song on a equalizer and set to a custom setting, bass boosting the song, and I was able to hear said screams.
Well I'll be damn ur right cool
You really just went and made one of the most banger Infinite remixes of all time like that?
Once again another excellent remix, keep up the good work K I N G
Re work of infinites backstory ig. Made it edgy af coz why not.
The battlefield was chaos incarnate. Fire raged and steel clashed as Shadow the Hedgehog carved through Eggman’s forces like a phantom of vengeance. Standing between him and victory was a jackal, the leader of the infamous Jackal Squad-a soldier feared across the wastelands for his deadly cunning. His name was unimportant then, but his reputation preceded him. They called him the Reaper of the Sands.
The squad’s mission was to defend one of Eggman’s deadliest creations: a towering machine housing a weapon of unspeakable destruction-a black hole bomb. Shadow’s purpose was simple: destroy it and leave nothing standing.
The Jackal Squad fought savagely, their leader a whirlwind of claws and steel. But Shadow was relentless. One by one, the jackals fell, their lives extinguished in the wake of his power. Their leader refused to retreat, standing his ground as Shadow tore through his comrades. Even as the bomb began to destabilize, Infinite fought with fury unmatched.
But Shadow was faster. Smarter. Deadlier. In a single decisive blow, he destroyed the machine. The resulting explosion unleashed the bomb's horrifying power. A black hole erupted, its event horizon consuming everything in its path.
Shadow, with Chaos Control, narrowly escaped the grasp of oblivion. From a safe vantage, he turned back to witness the nightmare. The Jackal Squad, every last one of them, was caught in the gravitational maw. Time twisted cruelly as they were stretched and torn apart, their bodies unraveling into strands of nothingness. Their screams echoed across the void.
The jackal leader-the one who would come to be known as Infinite-stood at the edge of the event horizon. The Chaos Emerald gifted by Eggman saved him from the immediate pull, encasing him in a fragile bubble of energy. But salvation was its own torment. As his comrades reached out, their forms dissolving into strands of nothingness, he reached back. His arm extended, fingers straining to grasp theirs, but the distance between them stretched forever. His screams joined theirs, a roar of anguish that reverberated through the void.
Time fractured. For Shadow, it was over in seconds. But for the jackal, those seconds stretched into eons. Trapped at the edge of the black hole, he felt his mind fragmenting under the weight of eternity. The emerald protected his body, but not his soul. The black hole whispered to him, its voice a cruel melody of infinite despair and endless rage.
When the jackal finally emerged, he was no longer the soldier he once was. His armor, warped by the black hole’s energy, had become jagged and menacing. His helmet, carved from the remains of his shattered mind, bore a visage of unspeakable terror. He had forged it himself during his imprisonment, each jagged edge a reminder of his failure and his suffering. He no longer needed a name; he was Infinite-a being beyond comprehension, born of despair, and forged in the fires of madness.
The black hole had not destroyed him. It had remade him. Its immense energy had seeped into his very being, granting him power over reality itself. He could twist the world to his will, warp existence into a reflection of his eternal pain.
Shadow watched in stunned silence as Infinite emerged from the void. His aura was suffocating, a storm of raw hatred and grief. Shadow could see it in his eyes: the jackal was no longer alive in the way mortals were. He was something else now, a revenant of rage, carrying the torment of infinity within him.
Infinite’s voice, when it came, was a guttural snarl, laced with venom and sorrow. “You escaped. They didn’t. And now… I will make sure you understand what it means to lose everything.”
Shadow said nothing. There was nothing he could say. He had created this monster, this being of infinite suffering.
And Infinite would ensure that the world would never forget it.
U know...like instead of the ass beat he got from shadow which made him crash out for being weak type backstory thought about tying it with a black hole or something
This is actually sick as shit man, nice job, I really wished that they gave infinite a more tragic backstory like this. In all honesty, they kind of did him dirty for a character with so much potential 😊
You know, there is an alternative backstory aswell, since infinite wouldn't say "friends are nothing but fleeting illusions", that one nearly reffers of him being betrayed first time, the 2nd he got betrayed is eggman. Infinite wouldn't that friends fleeting illusion part, if the jackal squad were really his friends. Its what i believe.
@@alialkilani1182 didn't know about that backstory thx for letting me know
@@Jason_morecheese379 fr man
Love how you meshed all the songs together and how natural it sounds😁
1:08 I turned up the volume and bass for that part SPECIFICALLY. That hit way too differently !!!
I was never a sonic fan but wow, this is a banger.
I think that someone commenting on a different video said it best: Infinite is a villain who is accidentally similar to real life people who think they’re so badass, only to throw temper tantrums when someone beats them
"And after all this time you're back more"
Seems random but this one of favorite lyrics from a Sonic song
“Battle by battle, this Jackal’s corpse was weakening. Being consumed inside out. But a jewel with the power of illusion would save him. Granting him the power to make all yield to the Phantom. And then he gone from Zero… to Infinity.”
I can't stop jamming to this!
Bro this should have been the one to be in game. I will keep on listening to this mix.
I can just picture the next open world sonic game. A set of side quests lead to a surprise return of Infinite and you fight him hand to hand Frontiers style and this remix plays, would be so awesome.
Funny thing; I have a frontiers mod that replaces tower with Infinite, and whenever I fight Tower I play this music, and even better, I have a shadow mod
URGH!
This and Hyper-Shans versions are just incredible! Well done! 👏👏👏
We've become infinite with this one ♾️
Infinite can literally manipulate reality, making him one of, if not the strongest sonic character. I NEED a game where his full potential is expressed and his backstory is fixed
I wish others would talk more about the addition of guitars in this remix. Especially at 1:15, 1:28 and 1:42 adding counter melodies to the chords that are played in the original. This is a new arrangement choice that was added deliberately, and I think it would have been pretty difficult considering the original already had a decent amount of space in the mix filled in by the chords alone. Taking down some of the mids on the main instrumental to give room for it must have been difficult but it sounds better as a result. The chorus at the beginning is also really interesting with the mix blanketing the guitars to the point of actually being unable to hear the strumming mostly. The synths are also a bit low on it too I think. But that decision is cool I think because on the later chorus where you added the other guitars again for the melodics it pushes a different kind of urgent feeling, even if the notes are just a few.
I like this mix good job on it.
Infinite: *gets bullied*
Also infinite: *drops this masterpiece*
this is SO underrated
Singlehandedly made me want Infinite to come back in a later game
"Let's see how many seconds you last."
- Infinite
4:43 easily THE best part of the song, love this song
Same for me, bro!
WOW! This is epic! The best remix of this song I've heard!
I really want to see a return or re attempt to make infinite a better villain or something. Everything from what his backstory could be to his powers gives him so much potential, but the fact that he hates shadow and the others just because he was called weak is stupid. He wanted to protect his comrades, so that could have been a far better reason to stick to. I think he was an awesome villain, but there's so much wasted potential for him
It's effectively Z Broly syndrome; Broly on the face of it is a really interesting contrasting character, as a literalization of "the legendary super saiyan", but his original execution is widely criticized for being motivated by a literal crying baby. Great character concept kneecapped by an absolutely dogshit backstory and character motivation.
@@Hexagonaldonut Honestly the best way to put it, no notes on my end.
Glad this song is getting more recognition it goes too hard for a sonic forces remix.
This was AMAZING
That art of infinite Is sick dude
This is my favorite mashup/remix/whatever it is of his theme :3 tysm !!
This is honestly amazing, how many other great remixes will he make?
Still to this day, Infinite is one of the best villains out there. I always love the fact how infinite's theme's first lines are just a reference to Zavok, Chaos, Metal Sonic, and Shadow. Although, on my opinion, I kinda was hoping instead of Shadow, it would be Mephiles. But I ain't complaining. It all goes hard. All we need now is a new sonic game with Infinite as the main villain this time instead of having Eggman as the last villain to defeat..

Best cover/edit. Hands down. This is the best one I’ve ever heard without a doubt. Excellent work!
Thanks!
Way late to this, but damn...this is the best version of Infinite's theme straight up. Spectacular job!
You know, I kind of hope they make Infinite part of the movie canon. I think they could do him justice without the need for shoehorning in Classic Sonic and the OC.
This needs to be in Sonic 4
I agree also I subscribed to you
I WOULD SELL MY SOUL FOR AN UNDEFEATABLE REMIX
This song and just the visual design of Infinite was the entire reason I got back into sonic after years, but then they just didn't use him to his full potential. A shame for a cool looking character

When I first saw Infinite, I honestly thought he was going to be like some sort of eldritch god or higher dimensional being since his cubes looked like tesseracts. Would of loved if they went down that route.
