Sonic Utopia

Nah. Fuck Green Hill. We're starting a movement here.

 

Fuck Green Hill and Lock Her Up!

 

#FuckGHZ
I'd love to see a 3D Marble Garden Zone, or even Mushroom Hill Zone that makes use of the Mushrooms to bounce and gain jumping momentum though

 

Yeah at least replace the checkerboard pattern with tiles or ovals

 

O-oh... Well, shit, I guess I'm guilty of checkerboards.

But to be fair, even though I don't think that greatly of Green Hill Zone as a concept, I did like how some of it was executed in Utopia. It manages to be more than just an uninspired 3D recreation of the stage, and I would love to see what the layout of the stage could look like in the next demo.

 

That doesn't count, that was started in 1998 :specialed:

 

I do feel that GHZ is over used. But in it's defense......
I got nothin'.... FUCK IT!!! LOL...

That being said, I would like to see something other than a green stage for the 1st stage like SA3's Route 99 Zone...

Disclaimer:
I don't hate GHZ as it is sonic's debut stage. I hate the idea that it needs to be brought back to keep sonic relevant...

 

I agree with this post. SA1 had Emerald Coast and SA2 had City Escape, and those are great!

 

Just in case this wasn't clear, I think everyone would agree that Green Hill in Utopia was done extremely well. Basically a breath of fresh air. It's the reliance of Green Hill, particularly on Sega's end, and as pointed out for relevance purposes, to which I object. Following Mania, I hope we never see Green Hill or a remake again. This calls for some serious garlic / silver bullets type shit.

 

I can forgive a GHZ remake only if the other 5 11 zones can rival those of S3K

 

....or GHZ done differently...Though it was just an homage to the music, I think SHZ in Sonic Advance 3 was pretty neat

 

What's wrong with you guys and your shit post here? I can get it if it's a joke but come on, go do it somewhere else, not here. This is getting ridiculous on bad mouthing GHz. I thought you guys were more mature than this...

You "assumed" that I was mad but I wasn't.

 

I've elaborated on my position, and Fuck GHZ is admittedly poor language, but it's how I feel. After Mania I see no need to revisit GHZ any time soon. It's been DONE TO DEATH! Sega has difficulty getting the point, so I'm screaming from the cyber rooftop. I would counter that constantly bringing the same zone out again and again is actually cheapening it. It's like some kitschy Plastic Jesus at this point. I respect Mania for breathing some new life into it, but following that I can't think of any reason to reuse it once more without cheapening its memory.

 

I completely agree with this. GHZ is a great piece of history with in the Sonic franchise that should be held at higher regard. A stage that once held the feeling of "OMG I REMEMBER THIS STAGE!!!" has ultimately been reduced to "oh this stage AGAIN?!" It's great that people like Mr. Lange(and co) and Taxman are able create refreshing versions of it, but I doesn't hold the same power it did when it showed as a secret stage in SA2B...

 

All I asked was a simple question but you and the other users just went the wrong way...

Well put man. This is a good example here folks.

 

Personally speaking I'm rather disappointed Emerald Hill doesn't get any love as it is from either sides (official works and fan products). :v

Green Hill wouldn't be so bad if the main games hadn't rehashed it and/or it's 3D post-Genesis cousin (Seaside Hill) ten times over for the past decade by this point.

 

I like the idea akin to the opening cinematic of sonic unleashed as a first stage. A final encounter with eggman, speeding through the first stage...





and meeting him as a boss at the end of act 2 (insert big eggman bot)

Maybe, you find one of sonic's friends kidnapped and you save them in this stage, setting off a full game of events with eggman trying to get them back and chasing after them. Why is eggman chasing them. Could he have done something to his friend? play the game to find out.....

or something like that....

 

Ya, that would be awesome. Something unconventional would be great.

p.s.: /\ /\ that is what the Sonic movie should be like as opposed to Smurfs...
