If you want a picture of the future of cRPG and Strategus, imagine a high school attended by all of the Sonic the Hedgehog characters, and during class Shadow passes a note to Sonic that says "Hey I have something I need to tell you at recess." And at recess they hang out near a picnic table and Shadow puts his gloved hand on Sonic and looks into his eyes and they share a deep, passionate kiss. Then the bell rings, and it’s back to class for Sonic and friends, but there is a new tension among them.. It is a very exciting time, for Sonic and Shadow. It’s really awesome to imagine this.
