One of the strangest games in the history of Sonic the Hedgehog it is without a doubt Shadow the Hedgehog for its dark or more serious tone compared to other titles in the series, precisely because its protagonist is Shadow, a character that many describe as “edgy”. Well, today we know that this character could have been ruder.
The voice actor for the character in this 2005 title, Jason Griffithwas present at Momocon and took the opportunity to confess a curious anecdote about the game GameLuster.

The title ultimately received a PG rating. 10 yearsbut the story could have been very different, because SEGA He even flirted with the idea of including a Shadow to say rude things. In fact, she confessed that there must be “hours and hours” of Shadow saying bad words.
“They were going for a M rating [sólo apto para mayores de edad] for this game and they hadn’t heard back from the agency if they were going to get it yet,” the voice actor recalled. “So they made me record two takes for each line, and I swear, in the version of M ratingthey made me say ‘f*ck‘ on each line. In each sentence, he shouted: ‘Sonicgive me that fucking Chaos Emerald!’, or something like that. I had no idea what was going on, but I just went ahead and had fun. There is a hard drive somewhere with hours of recordings of Shadow yelling at him ‘f*ck‘ to Tails and Sonic and so”.
voice actor Shadow clarified the “rumors”
However, after the conversation gave something to talk about, the voice actor used his account Twitter (X) to deny what he supposedly said, that it was “rumors“. Although he said he did not remember how many lines he recorded, Griffith Clarified that It wasn’t “hours and hours” of recordings, contrary to the version circulating online.
“To give you an example of how false that phrase is… I didn’t even know that Tails appeared in the game,” he commented Griffith.
That said, it is unknown if the conversation took place or how much of it is true and how much is a lie, since in another message Griffith did not deny the fact that there were some alternative recordings with “stronger language“, so it is a fact that at least SEGA considered showing a Shadow more taciturn or perhaps sweary.
Either way—for better or worse—those recordings did not appear in the game.
In case you missed it: SEGA is celebrating the Year of Shadow.
