didn't Shadow the Hedgehog game allow for a truly evil ending? if I remember right.. Shadow was originally going to destroy the world as well, if memory serves.. considering the upbeat nature of Sonic games that makes him a bad guy at least until he switched sides.. destroying the world ambitions are in the "bad" end of Sonic morality, because Sonic's character is all about being a jerk to people but still caring about right and wrong.
