I agree that it would sound strange if Infinite was never brought up in game; if you read the character sheets for the DLCs, Infinite actually comes up quite a bit.

In the Rouge DLC, my idea was that Rouge could come across audio logs of her and Shadow talking about Sonic characters that have not appeared in a long time (one of which being Infinite). My thought was that when they get to the entry about Infinite, Shadow would have Rouge leave and talk about Infinite himself.

I'm currently toying around with the idea of Infinite being the main villain in a new DLC, but anything I can think of just ends up turning into some terrible Evil Within ripoff.

While I don't want to spoil anything about Waves of Change, Infinite's appearence there will make sense when I get around to writing it.

While it's not made obvious in the main story, the Infinite incident had a big effect on Shadow's demeanor; it's part of why he's much more mellow in his dealings with others, since his ego spawned Infinite in the first place.

Thanks for your concerns, and I hope this clears it up.
