Two player mode
Use controller two to play as the Hero characters, such as Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, etc. This does not work with Doom's Eye. It also works with Maria. Note: They cannot pick up guns.

Character choices
In just about all of the stages you have three choices: to help the Dark side, yourself, or the Hero side whenever you have someone with you and it is not a Boss fight. To change the character you want with you, press [Start]. There will most likely be three selections: Dark, Neutral, and Hero. Press [Left] or [Right] to highlight a character or ring in the middle. Press [A] to select the highlighted character. That character will remain with you until your next run in with the other character. You can then simply press [Start] and do the process again. Note: You cannot select a Hero partner if there is an "X" over the Hero side. You cannot select a Dark partner if there is an "X" over the Dark side.

Another way to do this is to use the D-Pad on the controller during the game. Press [Right] for the Hero character, [Left] for the Dark character, and [Down] for the Neutral character.

Shadow Androids
In versus mode, there are four Shadow Androids. Two have machine guns and two have rocket launchers. They have unlimited ammunition but cannot pick up other weapons.

Pure Heart as name
Do fifteen Hero missions. Every once in awhile Sonic, Tails, and Amy will refer to you as ''Pure Heart''. You will not be called that if you do a Dark mission.

Cryptic Castle: Eggman comment
In Cryptic Castle, select Amy or Shadow. When you float on the balloon over the three towers, when you reach the middle tower Eggman will say "Try going down".

Death Ruins: Black Bull
Do not bother using the homing attack; it is too hard to get to, and it is difficult to keep hitting him like that. Instead, defeat the two Black Arms soldiers and collect the guns from them. Then, head for the spring and use it. Move forward a bit so you do not start grinding the rails. Pass Black Bull in your jump, and rapidly shoot a little before you level with its eye. Repeat the strategy, and if you fill your Hero gauge, activate Chaos Control and finish him off. This seems easier than to grind around him and shooting him every time around, which wastes ammunition on a lot of missed shots.

Lethal Highway: Black Bull
At the start, run up to him and start using homing attacks on the Black Volts to get to his eye. When you hit him once, wait until Shadow comes out of spinning from the recoil and straightens up, then attack again. This will minimize your chances of diving to him and getting hurt instead of another homing attack. Continue this as long as you can. When he is in the middle of the street, there are no Black Volts to bounce on. Instead, run directly under his head, then run away before he creates a shockwave under himself. By doing this, Black Bull will tilt his head down, making it an easy target. When he moves back, repeat. If you get a Gun from Black Arms soldiers, use it, but do not waste it. You will most likely fill your Hero gauge by then. Use it when he is easy to hit, then finish him off. He actually should be fairly easy.

Start by running in the opposite direction that you face. Keep running until you find three monsters with pistols. One of them has a shield. Kill them all and take the pistols. Do not use the pistols yet. Then, attack the little birds and press [A] repeatedly until the Boss moves out of range. Keep doing this until your Hero Gauge fills. Use Chaos Control and shoot Black Bull.

Wesopolis: Interesting billboard
Watch for a sign that reads ''Sonic Team". If you have Doom's Eye as an ally, the sign has red paint over it, and will now read ''Shadow the Hedgehog".

Defeating Black Bull
Use the following trick to defeat Black Bull in Death Ruins. Kill lots of soldiers. Then after getting the desired number of bullets, shoot him. When you get Chaos Control, use it and shoot him rapidly. The shots will keep the Hero meter full and you will kill him.

Defeating Diablon
Get a gun then keep attacking when he is on the ground and your Dark meter is full. You will be invincible and have unlimited bullets. This is easier if you have a machine gun of some sort. Hitting him will also increase your Dark meter, making it last longer.

Extra ammunition
Go to the stage were you have to kill the Chaos. There is a room near two GUN soldiers and a Chaos that has two weapon boxes in it. Break both boxes, then go in the room with the GUN soldiers. Go back and the boxes will be back. You can repeat this as many times as desired.

Save lives in Expert mode
When playing in Expert mode, you must go through all of the levels one at a time without a break or mission, and on a harder difficulty. You are given five lives, any lives you pick up, but cannot continue. If you lose all your lives, you must start all the way back on the first level. However, if you find yourself in a dangerous position (for example, falling off a cliff), press [Start] before the game registers the loss of the life, then select "Quit". At the Expert mode menu, select "Resume". At the cost of starting at the beginning of the level you were on, you will not lose that life and resume with whatever total you had previously.

Samurai Blade
The Samurai Blade has a low amount of slashes in level 1, but it kills in one hit due to a shock-wave that comes out of the blade. Like all swords you cannot ride on it, making its use difficult in levels such as Black Comet and Prison Island.

Yuji Naka reference
Sometimes the GUN soldiers will say odd things. One of the things that they say is "Mr. Yuji Naka is all right." Yuji Naka is the creator of the Sonic series.

Glitch: Long armed Shadow
Go to Glyphic Canyon and kill one of the black creatures who has a sword to get it. While holding the sword, press [B] button to strike once. Make sure you close in on Shadow with the [C-stick]. You will see that Shadow will have a long arm.

Glitch: Last Way: Wrong subtitle
When you are riding a dragon, Eggman will tell you to destroy any bombs that are in your way. Look at the subtitles. Immediately after he says that, "35 X 3 lines" will appear.

Glitch: The Doom Shortcut
Go through the level until you reach the room with the single ring in a cage. First, kill the beetle and the two soldiers so that they cannot shoot you. To the left of the cage is a GUN Lift without a turret. Walk up to the cage and use the [Punch], [Punch], [Kick] combo, then immediately jump onto the lift. It will activate and move through the doors, taking you to a shortcut that would normally require the five Secret Keys.
