Can you beat Shadow the Hedgehog using ONLY Player 2?

- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2023
- Shadow the Hedgehog has an unofficial Co-op mode where Player 2 has limited control over Shadow's friends. My question is- Can you beat the game using this limited control over the Player 2 character?
Be sure to check out Colby's video on Sonic Heroes!

Be sure to watch Colby's video on why Sonic Heroes is bad! (For the record, I am a Sonic Heroes enjoyer)

Yes please direct all hate my way I need to feel something
We will not be watching 😄
As someone who grew up with it, I personally love the game. With that said, I completely understand his argument (and everyone’s argument lol).
I’m sorry but your friend really sucks when he comes to being negative with sonic heroes! (This is why I don’t like people opinions about sonic games cause their opinions really really sucks!)
player 2 really is just meant to be a "little brother who isn't good at games but you're forced to play with anyway" role, isn't it
anyway, this a fun video! the gmod bits are great
lythero and snapcube have left me with a hole in my heart that needs to be filled with shadow the hegehog content every so often
It was what I was doing with my brother for real
I thought the line said Strange isn’t it not role isn’t it lol.
This and Super Mario Galaxy 2 lmao
Same as Tails in Sonic 2 and 3
I can't believe there's an entire game about Shadow gaslighting his friends into thinking he did all the work
"This enthusiasm would not last long"
Score 1 for Sonic Heroes
Darn right!! Such a good game
Hating on such an amazing game. He probably couldn't get the final ending lol
Honestly, I don't think this was even true. Being realistic, Colby remained in relatively good spirits for a surprisingly long time. As miserable as this was, they took it well.
You know you have played Shadow The Hedgehog a lot when you have memorized Westoplis' opening line.
Literally me. Been playing it since 2007.
Or you played all 10 endings 😂

"Shadow what are you doing!?" Said Sonic smashing the gun Soliders framing Shadow as he did to him in Sa2.
he's getting well-deserved revenge
I remember when my brother was playing this game and I was just sitting there holding the second controller and absent mindedly moved the joystick and to our surprise I was able to control Sonic.
Bro that exact thing happened to me and my older brother except I was punching with sonic, i tried to play 2 player but as a 5 year old with little skill I couldn’t 😢
I genuinely never knew there was multiplayer outside of the VS mode...
Same! And like I actually really like this game! I would have played this so much if I knew that before now!
I did me and my older brother found out and played til we dropped
What if I told you that a bunch of Sonic games have this kind of co-op multiplayer? Every 2D game which lets Tails follow Sonic lets the second player control Tails (even in Sonic 2's special stages... which is probably why those stages are actually harder in Sonic + Tails mode compared to just Sonic or Tails alone), I think SA1 does it whenever Tails is following Sonic in that game, stuff like that. In 3(&K) and Mania (though in the latter there is a way to do it with just one controller) it's even possible to have Tails carry Sonic around in co-op the way he does in the Marble Garden act 2 bossfight, and there's occasionally out-of-the-way item boxes that are intended to be obtained in this manner in 3&K.
I only learned of it a few years back.
@@TARDISES not just sonic games, there are other games aswell that have a hidden multiplayer like dmc3 and megaman and bass on the snes
The funniest part for me is ive played this game. And i didn't even know maria had a punch animation. This implies that she was angry enough to punch gun soilders in canon. That kinda recontextualizes the entire flashback.
Or shadow was just that angry with gun that his hallucination of playable maria was also willing to be violent.
The second one is so much funnier haha and kind of sad. He misses her so much 😭
I thought she was just bitchslapping the enemies.
GUN Soldier: FREEZE!
Shadow: NO! Don't hurt Maria!
Maria: Don't worry Shadow, I got this.
*Maria proceeds to slap the Soldier right across the face as Shadow stares slack-jawed.*
@@BloodThirstyAvengers let her cook
Fun fact: The route you tried first (going Dark twice, meeting Amy, then going pure Hero) is called "The Miracle of Love". Basically Shadamy fuel. Shadow is pure evil, bad to the bone, then sees Amy and does a complete 180 for her.
It was actually Rouge but other than that you are correct (I played through that route a while back so it's still fairly fresh in my memory)
@@kittykat5915 Huh? Level 1 is Westopolis, going dark there sends you to Digital Circuit, then going dark there sends you to Cryptic Castle. You meet Amy in Cryptic Castle and help her find Cream and Cheese. At least, that's how I seem to remember, though you do meet Rouge in Digital Circuit.
@@BloodThirstyAvengers you meet Rouge in digital circuit and do the hero mission there
@@kittykat5915 Hm. Maybe I misheard.
@@BloodThirstyAvengers just checked, turns out you were right all along 💀
If you get to the first checkpoint and the second then respawn at the first, the tank respawns on lethal highway but keeps the same health it had before, so you could just have sonic homing attack it nonstop and respawn, eventually it will be destroyed
Good old "speedrun" tactic for getting the best possible time on this stage. Which was... 00:08:42 or something.
Forcing another person to play this game for you is the true evil route
For anyone who hasn't played Shadow the Hedgehog's 1.5 player mode, since this was implied in the video but I think never explicitly stated: Eggman's little floating monitor and Doom's Eye aren't properly playable, they just kind of float around and yell at you. That's why Sky Troops "doesn't have a second player"--your choice of assistant characters is between those two.
Anyway, when the game was new, my little brother and I got to Final Haunt for the first time and just teamworked through the level with Sonic taking the lead while Shadow supported him. We were never quite able to make it work as smoothly again, but that memory is probably one of the biggest reasons that I generally like this game better than most people seem to.
Charmy Bee isn't playable either for the same reasons which is honestly quite funny.
12:49 Shadow: takes damage
Sonic: Way to go, Shadow!
Ah yes, sending your invincible sidekick in to do all the work, truly a staple of the Sonic franchise.
"My tactics may be unorthodox... but damn, they're also not effective." Lmaoooooooo
those sfms are really impressive, especially the intro one, the seamless transition was so DAMN good!
I loved that they added that multiplayer feature, made my little cousin so happy. And I love the idea for this challenge
this was absolutely hilarious and just fun to watch, loved it all the way through
also also, “HMMM ‘THE PROMISED TIME’ HUH??? TIME TO GO AND FULFILL THAT PROMISE”
10:02 This whole Friday segment is why I miss playing games local co-op like this :D
Whould've been cool if the second player could pickup weapons (only if controlled by a player). Imagine a world where tails runs around shooting a blicky icing some fools.
Maria takes the power of the pistol for herself.
In Westopolis, there's a hint bubble about guns. If you have Sonic read it, he adds on "Personally, I wouldn't be caught dead with one of those things"... except he used a revolver in Sonic Shuffle and can use guns in Smash Bros (if that counts) so... he a liar.
@@BloodThirstyAvengers Also, Black Knight.
@@MountainMemelord What about it? He never mentions swords. I'm fairly certain he's specifically talking about guns.
when i started watching i was like "oh i would've liked to know the route planning for the run"
and then i found out there was no plan lol
honestly it ended up making the vid better lmao
Finally! Someone realizes the fun of playing 2nd player mode!
And btw that is considered a 2nd person video game when playing as non Shadow so that's cool
what makes it second person
@@swr.nezumi first person is when you're seeing it off the character's point of view, third is when you see your character as a player point of view, but it's second because you're viewing it from the point of view of another character
It bears correction that on the second level on the Dark path you're not just in "a computer", you're literally inside the internet, and destroying the core deletes every single piece of data on the net, as well as bringing down all network communication worldwide in-universe.
No fucking wonder Sega said the Pure Hero path is the canon one.
You can actually reset lethal highway (or die I think) and the shield on the tank will stay damaged so technically Sonic can deplete the entire shield.
Note that, even though the original Xbox (which Shadow the Hedgehog released on as well as the PS2, which only has two controller ports, and the GameCube) has four controller ports, there is no way for player 2 to influence the single-player mode on that port.
Also... Sonic Adventure 1 has the same limited two-player in Sonic's story, as in the levels where Tails joins Sonic, the second player can control him like on the Genesis/Mega Drive.
This is amazing. A minute in and im already loving the concept of the challenge.
Never in my whole life I would have imagined Sonic defeating the GUN soldiers, by his own will lol
You really just turned this game into a second-person POV experience.
I like the part where Colby said "It's Colbin time" and Colby'd all over every black alien
I’m taking the kids. Don’t contact me.
There was the hilarious stream where only donations determine the route, now this one which i thought was even funnier
Love Lythero, one of my biggest inspirations honestly
@@Wumbodorf Small world isnt it
I Honestly Like the Fact that the Game has a Second Player Function, if only to Say that You can Play as Maria Robotnik in an Official Sonic Game!
I love your vids so much. Every post you make is such a treat. I loved your TP playthru, im loving WW, and i loved this shadow vid.
I remember from a community post you were saying these types of games arnt usually your go to. Make sure you play stuff YOU want to play so you dong get burnt out. Idk about others but im here for the creator not the actual content (in a nice way!)
Colby and I are actually huge Sonic fans, so while we will be finishing up Wind Waker, we also won't pass up the oppurtunity to make stuff on Sonic!
Thank you for your continued support! ❤️
@@Wumbodorf I can vouch for this. We’ve wanted to do a video on something Sonic related since before we even finished TP, we just had trouble coming up with ideas for a bit there.
@Wumbodorf you should do a playthrough of Sonic Frontiers if you want to post some Sonic content on your channel
Burn your dong
I thought i was the only one who knew that you can basically play storymode 2 players.
This was great XD the chemistry between you two was SUPER fun and how you guys kept bending the rules to make it happen.
Yeah fsr Sonic is the only partner who can homing attack while the others just do the jump dash, possibly because Sonic can home on you in the Diablos boss fight
I have so much respect for the amount of time this must have taken you boys, when's the next windwaker gonna be out?
Loved the video, Colby and you are a fun duo that seem to bounce off each other. Definitely keep up the random cuts to sfm and animations, super entertaining
Such an awesome video, always good to see two lads exchanging banter over a video game while solving a challenge. I'm happy YT reccs led me here! Subbed to both dudes now. :D
I have a soft spot for this game , glad to see new videos on it
I really appreciate the SFM animations
When i saw sonic getting bite by headcrabs i thought the clip was stolen form the internet considering how big the SFM Sonic Community is..
But further into the video I See that the animations were made specifically for the video which made me really happy 😊
Especially the flying shadow that Question What to do after and Omega trying To getting down slowly 😂
Its just that these small clips bring life and deeper appreciation to the hole thing 😅
This was very entertaining to watch, I never knew that the second player could control the assistant character!
This was a nice youtube recommended, this was very entertaining.
Never knew all 300+ path combinations had their own unique title. But reminds me of the old challenge runs of the old 2d games, simple concept turns out to be deceptively painful.
Dude seeing you all slowly lose your minds at the was amazing 😂
i loved this. and the the gmod edits are hilarious
This video is awesome, great work man!
Your friend is bloody hilarious. It makes this video extra great lmao.
Completely underrated. Keep up the amazing work!
"The spirit of the holiday" is the hardest Ive laughed in a while. Thanks.
I can almost guarantee that 33:00 put you on a list
yo the editing on this and that intro, damn!
Bruhhh! I"m dying 5 seconds into this video, THE CALLBACK TO THE LAST STORY INTRO WAS SICK!!
34:50 That AOSTH reference though.
If Parsec was not providing good results, you guys should have tried hosting with Sunshine and remoting with Moonlight, the performance with that setup for me is way faster and smoother.
...Are those programs named entirely so that if something goes wrong with the connection you're legally required to blame it on the boogie instead?
i never expected wumbodork to do challenge videos but i like it
34:50 omg I'm so happy someone else knows that song! I thought i was crazy thinking it was an actual thing and not something i made up lol.
The addition of the SFM bits made it a bit more funny XD
really added to the video lol
This dude put so much effort in this video he's so underrated man
YOOO YOU HOOKED ME W THAT ANIMATION TO TITLE SCREEN
This is amazing keep up the good content
Clicked this video on a whim, and did NOT expect it to feel like a perfect classic Game Grumps episode. Two funny men playing dumb Sonic game and making jokes that shouldn't be funny but totally are, I feel like I just spent a half-hour back in 2015 and I LOVED it.
that intro goes HARD brother‼️
Lol another best multiplayer from you two guys my next suggestion multiplayer would definitely be a hat in time multiplayer that would be amazing
i absolutely love creative sonic challenges like these!
16:54 NO FRICKING WAY, THIS IS A THING????
ALL THE TIMES I WENT THROUGH HELL IN THIS MISSION, AND I COULD'VE JUST DONE THAT
Love the custom visual edits lol
31:12
How is it hard to understand? Eggman is the "neutral" partner, meaning he's good if the opposition is BD and evil if the opposition is Sonic and GUN.
Fun video btw.
14:46 Tails attacks enemies by twerking at them in this game, apparently.
Awesome video man
SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG HAS LITTLE-BROTHER CO-OP!?
I remember when I first found out that player 2 was even a thing in this game, I accidentally grabbed the wrong GameCube controller and was running around as Maria lol
Trivia: Thanks to Shadow The Hedgehog's Co-op mode Maria is the first playable human character in a Sonic game (excluding Dr. Eggman)
"Isn't Shadow doing the work against the challenge?"
Cuts to next segment.
"don't touch the red fruit." i was eating a apple during that line 😥and still am
i love the idea that despite having a fictional illness, Maria is just as fast as shadow, and is capable of some combat.
So pretty doing the evil route turns Sonic into the bad guy
You being traumatized by rings and Player 2 losing his mind everytime you're about to do something risky was hilarious 😂
Neat idea
Competent Editing
Funny Commentary
instant sub
“Look at all those Eggman Robots!”
0:07 That was a REALLY cool transition to the game 4:47p.m. 10/8/2023
18:18 Rouge didn't work for G.U.N until Sonic 06, with her being hired specifically by the President in Adventure 2, and then being on her own until 06.
Oh... I'm a fake fan I guess
@@SuperachiL
When she was w/ Eggman (SA2), wasn't she a double agent on GUN's behalf?
@@anjoliebarrios8906 Nah, she's specifically called a "government spy" and takes orders from the president, whom GUN seems to be keeping secrets from, as he has to rely on her to learn about Project Shadow and GUN's involvement with it.
To further drive that home, a translation from the original Japanese would call her "the federal government president's specialized agent," so she answers directly to the president, not GUN.
@@anjoliebarrios8906Nah, she was under direct orders from the president. She WAS a government agent, but not specifically a GUN operative.
You guys are such a mood lol. Reminds me of MindPulp
did NOT expect the aosth reference but i appreicate it so much
26:26
Suddenly
Shadow: GRRRAH! DEATH TO ALL WHO OPPOSE ME!
Bro it killed me when he said "That's the way to get into the spirit of the holiday" when talking about 9/11
Colby got really good at "2nd-person gameplay." I only just realized that's what this is. Not 1st-person, not 3rd, but 2nd. Very rare gameplay style.
it's criminal that this video isn't at a million views
This is so interesting I never knew the player 2 for this game was so limited
I never knew there *was* a player 2.. since.. well never even thought of trying.. since half the time you have a random floating "ally" anyways..
you know before I saw that video link at the end, since Colby didn't actually say why he hates sonic heroes I was just going to assume he has a deep seated loathing for triangle jumps
Damn, editing goes hard
Shadow in this video is just that one guy telling everyone else what to do and it’s so darn funny 😂
Why was that intro more clean then the actual games intro
14:58 Well that answers my question on if the partners can pick up power ups as they are unable to use them.
Wasnt there a glutch in the highway level where if you die, the ships shield dont regenerate?
1st level: Sonic betrays planet earth and fights for evil for no discernible reason
This is Meatshield Maria’s time to shine!!!
I am glad a Sonic Heroes hater was harmed in the making of this video.
this is the first video ive watched from you, wont be my last
This is basically, 2nd person view gamin, amazing
