Sonic Adventure 2 was okay. Nothing special. Nowhere NEAR as good as classic 2d Sonic. And the Sonic/Shadow parts were definitely the best parts... though I didn't mind the Tails Mech ones, they didn't feel very Sonic-ish. Knuckles? Like a mediocre clone of a Mario 64 gametype... 'mediocre' being the deciding word there. I played a little bit of Sonic Adventure as well. They're both... okay. But they just don't have the charm, either in gameplay, graphics, characters... whatever... of the old games and with this beign the fourth game like this I don't know if they can recapture that.
Shadow stupid? Yeah, kinda. Ooh, he's black and has skates! That makes him REALLY evil! The gun is obviously trying to further that, but it isn't going to work... it isn't so much awful as it is sad that Sega platformers have sunk as far as they have... do they know how to make a great platformer anymore?
