The fact that most people think he was the best thing that's happened to the Sonic franchise; did you yourself not say you wont buy this game simply because Shadow is not in it? It's this kind of attitude that proves Shadow is overrated and that, if Sonicteam simply removed him from existance, the franchise would probably sink faster than a lead weight.

Perhaps the question i should pose is "How is he NOT overrated?"
