we can solve this by logical thought.... sonic is blue... therefore fast... and shadow is black and red... therefore emo and powerfulFor the record. He's just as fast as Sonic even without the shoes. The shoes are for air mobility. Said so on......Sega's site?
Also. Pepsi blue was good. They should have kept it.
on a more serious note... there seems to be tons of different opinions on this matter... i guess i should look for more solid evidence... though i honestly doubt sega would say things like "sonic is faster than shadow when shoeless"
.... foudn some pretty rediculous things looking for the answer tho..
