Review: Sonic X Shadow Generations
Sonic X Shadow Generations looks back to the past while providing a glimpse into the future of the iconic franchise.
How to get to Biolizard
Once you’ve passed all four challenges, head back toRail Canyonand make your way up the tall black building behind it. Jump over the sliding blocks and climb over to the higher platform where there will be aBlack Warriorstanding on another platform. Jump in the air, then hit and hold theXbutton to attack and throw him up in the air. Once you see the boss battle entrance on the upper level, hitXto push the enemy towards it. This will bring you right to the gate, where you will need to use thetwo keysgained from the challenges to open the portal.
The battle begins with Shadow appearing at Cannon’s Core to find the main reactor starting to energize. A ball of energy is generated in the middle of the room and theBiolizardmakes its appearance. At this point, the Biolizard has been put away for over fifty years, but don’t take this one out as being too old, as his moves are strong and dangerous. In the typical Shadow fashion, he lets the tortured soul know that he will be the one to end its suffering.
The stage is set up in a circular form, meaning that the space you have to move around in is limited. Biolizard’s first moves will have you running in the opposite direction from his biting attack and avoiding several energy orbs that come your way. Maneuver around them until Biolizards energy is unstable, then rail up the cords on the left side of their face to make it up to its life support rig on its back. Sounds dark, I know, but you have to damage it in order to advance to the next phase of the battle.
Biolizard is now enraged by the attack and has now grown several cords on either side of its body that are infused with purple spores that give the boss a new set of arms. This mutation poses a new way of attacking Biolizard, as those are the way of reaching the life support system. His moves will now consist of the arms slamming down, causing the area to rumble. Avoid these attacks by jumping before the echo hits you, then attack the arm and use the scattered orbs to reach its back.
Phase Three
Attack the same arm again twice, and it will blow up, causing the Biolizard to become vulnerable. Biolizard will revert to its original location on the ceiling, where he will now be attached by energy cords. The next phase will require Shadow to use theDoom Spearsto hit the incoming orbs. After he releases all of them, he will unleash a huge orb and send it towards Shadow, which can be stopped and sent back to him by engagingChaos Control. Jump off the orbs to make it to the life support system, then hitYto break the button, which will end Biolizard’s reign.
Once you’ve returned to theWhite Space, the Black Arm satellite will get damaged and entire new sections will be revealed. A lot of story elements take place in this cutscene, so verify not to skip this one. As you cruise through the next stages, you will get theDoom Surfpower and go against theMetal OverlordfromSonic Heroes.
