I'm with you on this point. A giant Pinball board that literally transports you to Nightopia?! Or how about the Twinkle Circuit? You know, because in Twinkle Park they fit a giant race track in space, suspended high above Station Square where you fall for miles and die. But remember, couples get in free.I'm not following. What is it about the Adventure world that would've prohibited something like Casino Park or Bingo Highway from existing? Casinopolis had giant (virtual?) pinball machines that used Sonic as the ball. That doesn't seen any less fantastic or ridiculous.
Yes, but Tikal directly talks to E-102 in the past, with no knowledge of who he is...meaning that either it's an "interactive vision" that changes based on who is having it, or Gamma really was at the altar.Yeah, but during the Super Sonic story, Tikal sends Sonic into a vision right in front of Tails and Knuckles. When he wakes up, Tails says he "just sort of conked out," not disappeared. Maybe while Tails was dreaming he was also wandering around in the present, sort of sleep walking, and picked up the badge in some random place. I mean, he does wake up somewhere other than were he was when the vision started.

Actually it looks like Sonic Project 2017 might have picked it up. :DI've never played Chronicles, but I remember what I heard of it having a bunch of little continuity issues, as though Bioware had taken all of their research from Wikipedia. Even GreenGibbon didn't consider it canon at the time. And it ended on a cliffhanger that was never picked up, so I just ignore it.
That's a fair point. The ME is still partially there. And it's able to show Knuckles where the remaining pieces are even when it is incomplete, so it clearly has power, even when broken.Good point about the shrine island floating even when the main island is down, but it DID have half of the Master Emerald still on it, and it was glowing (I think) so it wasn't dead, so it might've had enough power to prevent the shrine from falling off into the sea.
So you've got the meteorites, then Eggman, then Hyper/Super Sonic. What is that strange arm underneath? I've always wondered that.If this came out of their imagination rather than some prophet's mystic foresight then it's a pretty huge coincidence that they got the robot's appearance right.
I basically considered Lava Reef 1/2/Hidden Palace to be all the same cave network inside that volcano.I think I see what you're doing to locate Hidden Palace (we know that Lava Reef 2 is between it and Lava Reef 1, which is presumably in the vicinity of the volcano), but here's a source I don't think you considered. We can see the Death Egg's face from both Lava Reef and Hidden Palace.
They do in the vicinity of Eggman's Hidden Base in Sonic Adventure 2.I'm not even sure of this. Sandopolis doesn't have echidna faces either.
Sky Sanctuary Zone is to the south of Angel Island. Remember when Sonic gets there the Death Egg launching is in the background. The Death Egg launched from basically just above HPZ, where Sonic was before he telaported. Now it is very far away. In Knuckles' game, since the Island is already in the sky, instead of seeing the Death Egg in the background, we see Angel Island. As you progress through SSZ, you get closer to where the Death Egg is in the distance, so who knows how large the SSZ really is? Maybe it's "The Land of the Sky?" MIND BLOWN. J/KMaybe it's because everything else sort of resembles a real-life civilization, whereas it looks very futuristic. Which reminds me...Where are we standing?!?!
I think it mentions it was a result of Angel Island being pushed into the ocean during Sonic 3. My interpretation was that because Angel Island was pushed out of the sky, it was "close enough" to the ruins that would become Neutrogic High Zone for the pillar to "react with them" in someway, causing the rapid growth of the new island.Another addition to my list of god activity: Raising Neutrogic High Zone and restoring it to a lush green paradise. This may have been by accident; the manual says it was a result of the Pillar's energy rather than the gods or the Master Emerald itself. All it accomplished in the immediate sense was to give Eggman a way to access the Pillar and create the Chaos Rings, unless the island is the same thing as Station Square+Mystic Ruin, in which case it was part of the setup for the events designed to put Chaos+Tikal to rest.
It's not even missing in Sonic Heroes. In the haunted castle level the moon is XBOX-HUGE and perfect. Either they are going with the Sonic X explanation that it was repaired somehow, or we are always looking at the other side of it...somehow...Also, I just watched the end and the moon isn't missing a chunk from the eclipse cannon.
