Silver Sonic in Sonic 2 Death Egg Zone

Can you tell me what moves the metal sonic does in Death Egg Zone (ex. over, under, over with spikes, etc...) I am having some troubles with that. That a lot. Thanks a million
Aaron

Okay, here's the order of the moves, starting from the right side of the screen:
1. Spin across floor. <-
2. Standing dash to the right, then back to the left.
3. Jump ->
6. Spin <-
7. Spin ->
8. Jump <- with spikes shooting
9. Dash
10. Jump ->
11. Spin <-
12. Spin ->
13. Jump <-
14. Spin ->
15, Dash
16, Spin <-
17. Jump ->
18. Jump <- with spikes shooting
Repeat from 1, but with the directions switched, since you're starting on the left.

(The Standing Dash is a great time to attack. If you do a spin dash, Silver Sonic will go right though you, and take damage, while you will be unharmed.)

Sonic's Origin

I want to know who thought of Sonnic the Hedgehog?
John K. again

Naoto Oshimo created Sonic the Hedgehog, or at least his design and species.

"In 1991, Hayao Nakayama, the chairman of Sega, decided to develop a mascot that would do for his company what Mickey Mouse had done for Walt Disney: personify Sega with a universally-recognized icon. Most of his designers submitted drawings of hopping animals such as kangeroos and rabbits, but Nakayama settled on Naoto Oshimo's stylized hedgehog, and Sonic The Hedgehog was born."

General Questions

Hello, just a few questions if ya don't mind.

1. Ra, Rm files and stuff like that are totally different from MP3's so why does simplenet have a problem with the Sat AM videos?

2. This is actually a comment that I just have to say from experience. Geocities does not always work. They suck and they are down 45% of the time which is way too much. At least, when I was there they were.

3. I keep having these weird reoccurring dreams where I'm in Robotropolis and about to be robotosized. Then, of all the stupid things to happen, Snively saves me. Any idea what they mean?

4. What exactly are you looking for in your links page? Do you like creativity or what?

Soneec

(I mainly just thought you'd get a kick out of #3 I don't expect a real answer so don't think I'm stupid or anything)

1. I'm not sure if they do. The Sonic Corner never got a warning from Simplenet. The files were removed voluntarily in order to prevent any trouble. SEGASonic.net was shut down for having a tiny collection of MP3s, but they're back and still have their AoStH videos. I really have little knowledge of what happened at Star Hedgehog's Page, because the first time I saw it was after they were rebuilt, minus SatAM. I looked at the page's message board, and the site apparently did have some problems with Simplenet, but they still have other videos, so I don't know what happened.

2. I can't comment because I've never maintained a Geocities site.

3. Actually, you're not the only one. For the month before Sonic 2 came out, I had dreams every other night about finding a store that had somehow leaked a copy from SEGA.
I think the fact that Snively saved you is understandable. Personally, when SatAM was on, I always thought Snively would end up joining the Freedom Fighters. It just seemed that they were setting him up to be converted into a good guy.

4. I can't speak for the other reviewers, but I can describe the way I ranked them. I looked at each site and wrote down a summary of what it had. I gave extra attention to things that were unique to that site, or that were relatively rare. For common stuff like Fan Art, Fan Fics, Profiles, SA pics, Anime pics, Comic Scans, etc., I graded them mostly on quantity, and occasionally for the quality of a few samples I had seen. Also, for example, a site with 30 well-described and categorized pics got more Fan Art credit than a site with over 100 pics that were just left in a directory somewhere with no descriptions, thumbnails, or anything. Ease of navigation and appearance also influenced my opinion.
I ranked them all in a list from first to last. When there seemed to be several sites relatively close in quality, I grouped them together and gave them the same score. If a site got a 15, for example, it was because I felt it was approximately 1 point below the 16s and 1 point above the 14s. A lot of sites jumped from group to group as I compared them, but I eventually became pretty sure where they all went. There were a number of sites that got x.5 ratings, but I finally decided to round down the ones that were no longer updated and round up the rest.

How do you get to be Super Sonic?

I got all the emeralds but I can't be super sonic. How do you do it?

The Chaos Emeralds only allow you to become Super Sonic in Sonic 2 (jump with 50+ rings) and Sonic 3 & Knukles (do an Insta-Shield with 50+ rings).
If you're playing Sonic 3 & Knuckles and you've already finished Launch Base, Super Sonic is no longer available (unless for some reason you skipped the giant glowing ring) and you'll have to get all 14 emeralds and become Hyper Sonic.

A Whole Ton of Questions

1- what happend to julayla(sally's mentor did she died from age or because she was to sick to keep going

2 the vest that sally wears where did she get it from was it from her mentor or was it a present?

3 how come the technology of the freedom fighters advanced so fast in 10 yrs in the sonic in your face issue they said that rotor invented nicole and send it back in time to sally when she was young how young ? 14? because i remember from older issues that sally didn't have nicole in what issue did she get it ? now talking about the technology how did they advanced so fast when they were always defending themselves from their enemies

4 who is more powerful demetri as enerjak or as a robot

5 is lupe the oldest of the wolfpack freedom fighters what are they names

6 from what group of freedom fighters is barby from what are the names of the members

7 who is ray squirrel

8 how come everybody wears shoes exept bunnie and rotor i know bunnie is a cyborg but you can still see she had no shoes when she was partially made a robot

9 who is stronger bunnie or the stronger member of the chaotix which i don't remember the name

10 what other qualities bunnie has besides strenght

11 besides julayla has there been any other death in the comic?

12 i know every guardian has special powers one has a laser beam of some sort coming from his eyes other looks like spawn and like is flying up the ground athair magic even knuckles big powerful fists what does his father has because i dont see anything with him

13 is the sonic underground tv series goping to affect the comic because i love it the way it is

it will be great if you add some original artwork to this site or ink artwork besides the front covers
ARR799834

1. Old age in Sonic #19.

2. See Sonic: In Your Face special. She got it from Julia.

3. She got it in Sonic: IYF. She doesn't always bring it with her in the comic.

4. Enerjak

5. The wolfpack freedom fighters are Reynard, Diablo, Canus, Lupe, and two others I can't remember. Lupe is the oldest.

6. She's from Downunda, other members are Walt, Barby, Wombat-stu, and Duck "Bill".

7. SEGASonic the Hedghog (an Arcade game released in 1993 in Japan) featured 3 playable characters: Sonic the Hedgehog, Mighty the Armadillo, and Ray the Flying Squirrel. Sonic was the fastest, Mighty was the strongest, and Ray was the most acrobatic. Ray is yellow and brown and has a very fast glide. Apparently, in Japan, Mighty and Ray are a team like Sonic and Tails. Ray will be introduced in Knuckles #26 and will then join the Chaotix.

8. It's the style of the artist. The various Sonic characters were designed by 3 different companies (SEGA, DiC, Archie) and by different artists within those companies.

9. The character you're talking about is Mighty the Armadillo. He's supposed to be as strong as Sonic is fast, so that means he's probably stronger than Bunnie, since few machines can match Sonic's speed. Besides that, Bunnie isn't all machine. However, since metal is sturdy, Bunnie can probably use her strength for longer amounts of time than Mighty can.

10. Well, she's nice, and often clever. She also has martial arts skills. Her robotic limbs can extend and Rotor sometimes adds upgrades to them to give Bunnie more abilities.

11. Mello Bee, Eddy the Yeti, Robotnik

12. The force is with him...aways....

13. Don't worry, Archie has said that they are going to try to prevent Underground from affecting the comic.

We have a Fan Art section. And non-cover comic scans are available on the old Comic Info Page, so they should be up on the new one eventually.

This is not perverted!

This Is Not Perverted,or fresh.How Antoine and Bunnie Gonna Produce a Baby(If they get Married of Course)When Bunnie's Genital Parts are Roboticized.Tanx!!
MonaceHT

Oh, this is perverted alright...depending on your point of view. Don't worry about it, it's a imagined world, the writers could write in anything to solve any problem no matter how lame it is. This problem is actually easy to solve, write in a derobotisizer.

Questions...lots and lots of questions...

1- I know that Hershey wasn't a freedom fighter or wasn't in the secret service before issue 50 so where is she coming from is she originally from the wolf pack or from what group is she from?

2.- How old is lupe?

3- how members are there in the wolf pack?

4-what are the members of the knothole freedom fighters ?

5 where did Nicole came from?

6.is there original art to buy from the comics of sonic or knuckles

7. cool site keep out the good work
ARR799834

1. She's been in Knothole all the time, I suppose. She just befriended Drago when the Wolf Pack came.
2. Hmm...Ken said she's in her 30s.
3. What version? In Archie there's 6 members.
4. Sally, Sonic, Tails, Bunnie, Antoine, Rotor, and Dulcy. These are the main ones.
5. The future Sally send it back to her younger self...the future Rotor made it.
6. Yes, you buy them directly from the artists and inkers. We'll have some of there emails up in the Links page some time in the next week or two.
7. We'll do.

SatAM Real Video...

Your news page is still tempoarliy down (when this is being written), so I was wondering what is the URL to the site with the SatAM Real Player episodes since I can't get to the archive. Also, when are the remaining pages going to be tranferred from Geocities? Some new thing with my browser (IE) is not allowing them to be connected to. Speaking of music, whatever happened to the MIDI's "South Island" from the anime page and "Let There Be Light" from the compositions page?
- J Weekley

Because of Simplenet server rules, basicly all the SatAM real video were taken down by the Sonic sites. So you won't find it anywhere now...We're moving as fast as we can, the Music page is being moved for this whole week. I don't know about you not being able to connect to Geocities, because they work all the time. For the mids, you'll have to wait for the new page to be up.
