SatAM and Archie Sonic The Hedgehog Media Galaore!

Sat, 16 May 2009 14:09:44 -0700

Hey guys, long time no see! I'm currently revising intensely for my examinations so thats why its been somewhat quiet here. From now on, I'll try to update at least once every Friday, so your getting at least a bit every week. Anyway, its been rather quite in the Sonic Community as a whole, which isn't necesserily a bad thing considering how loud and annoying various facts and sections of the community can be. Regardless, I've managed to give a tasty update for ya'll. I've added Sonic The Hedgehog 199 and Sonic Universe issue 3 for download in the comics section. I've also added Sonic Satam Season 1 (all 12 episodes) available for download in the Sonic cartoons: Sonic Satam page, took me quite sometime to upload them too. Anyway thats about it for now. Stay tuned. The Shadow Tweaker

Sonic And The Black Knight Media Galore!

Mon, 13 Apr 2009 14:31:34 -0700

Hey all, well with the recent release of Sonic And The Black Knight for the Nintendo Wii I thought I might add some more Black Knight related content to the Shadow Universe website. First Off, I'd added a lot more trailers for the game starring the likes of Shadow, Blaze and Rouge. Additionally, I've added ALL the Sonic And The Black Knight Cutscenes available for download on the Sonic And The Black Knight Movies And Trailers page. On top of all of this, I've also added the Sonic And The Black Knight Vocal Soundtrack: Face To Faith to the music archive section. All tunes are available for download. You should take a listen, the music is pretty sweet. Thats about it for now. Enjoy the Sonic and The Black Knight Content.DS

Okay before I get onto the updates, first and foremost: THE SHADOW ALL-STAR AWARDS 2009 Voting ha snow closed and the results are being analysed and will be announced on Sunday 7pm this week, thank you to all who participated. Now onto the updates, I've finally added all the Archie Sonic comics for download, this includes the 'Archie Sonic the hedgehog' series and the new 'Sonic Universe' series (the Sonic X series will be added shortly afterwards). So tell all your friends if they need Archie Sonic Comics to come check out this place. I've also added Sonic Rush Adventure Cutscenes for download as well as most of the remaining pages for this website (although there's still quite a bit to go). I hope everyone liking the change to Shadow Universe (we've got a new banner to boot) and more updates will be coming shortly. Thats all for now I guess, more updates will be coming shortly. DS

Shadow Universe 2.0 Is Now Officially Open!

Thu, 19 Mar 2009 18:44:26 -0700

Ya see, I told you I had a surprise for you guys. What do you think? You may be wondering why I changed the name to the site and its primarily because I wanted to cover more ground in the Shadow Fandom as well as Shadow as a character in general. I wanted (and still) this website to become a world renown source for Shadow The Hedgehog (hence the #1 Shadow The Hedgehog Resource in the banner). So I thought about it and Shadow Universe was the name that came to me. Don't worry though, the forums are still known as 'Black Hero Forums' and will continue to do so. There still as grand and active as ever so you may want to have a look. As you've most likely noticed there been a couple of changes/new features. The affilaites will be placed on all pages and is to the left, things are much more smoother and cleaner (advertisement, news,polls etc) and the colour scheme is now black/grey/white as opposed to Black and Red. Read more to see more info on the change.

There will be new changes to categories compared to the previous year and new categories so keep an eye out for that too.

Hey all, Happy New Year! I've done quite a bit in terms of updating. I've revamped the Music page due to popular demand. I've added soundtrack boxart and the music for Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Heroes, Shadow the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedeghog06 and a new addition SONIC UNLEASHED 'Planetery Pieces'. So check that out (I spent a lot of time doing it). I've also added Archie Sonic the hedgehog comic 195 for download and some more Sonic 06 and Sonic Unleashed cutscenes to the movies and trailers section. And finally, I've added more graphics i.e. Userbars to the Shadow Graphics page and userbars to the Link to Us page (to advertise Black Hero). And I think thats about it. Oh stop by the Black Hero forum, we could use more members, more activity and more fun lol. Thats all for now. Happy New Year.DS
