I enjoy playing the 3D Green Hill Zone every now and again (every time I turn the game on, in fact), but the one problem I see with it revolves around me--I've never gotten any higher than a B-Rank on it, and that B-Rank only came once; every other time, it's a C.

I blaze through the stage, 'C'. I collect all the rings I can as quickly as I can, 'C'. I bop every enemy I see, 'C'. I even tried collecting every ring, but I guess something stopped me from doing it (it was a long time ago).

I know I'm pathetic and everything, but fuck.

Hyper characters for me. By the time I got round to unlocking them, I'd been through the whole of 3 & Knuckles a good four or five times, so it was kinda theraputic to suddenly be able to completely lay waste to the levels and laugh in the face of 99% of the hazards.

Plus, you can't help but love Super Tails and his Flickies o' Doom.

I think that was the main think I likes, alongside Super Knuckles.
I wish that more effort was made into making Super Knuckles look different though, like maybe making his quills look wilder.

It wasn't until just a few months ago that I figured out that flying into a wall with Hyper Knuckles made the entire stage shake. That was hardcore. Did that go over anyone else's head, or am I just a special, special boy?

I can't speak for everyone, but it looks like I'm ahead of you for once.

Nah, I didn't know that. I never bothered to get Hyper Knuckles until a few months ago though.

When I first gathered all the Chaos Emeralds in S&K as Sonic, I was unaware of the extra stage. When I started hearing the BGM, I almost shitted my pants along with the heart attack it gave to me.

And continuous Hyper Sonic flashiness trained me for playing Rez in marathon and viewing the entire 37th episode of Pokémon. JAP CRAP!!
