OK I added [[Image:S3-eu-box.jpg|40px]], and figured I'd do S3D at the same time but my box is a bit mangy - I uploaded it as [[Image:S3d-md-eu-box.jpg|40px]] - I shall leave it up to you as to whether or not it replaces [[Image:S3d-box-eu.jpg|20px]], I've not linked it anywhere.

I have some manual images of those McDonalds games. But the guy that took the pics wasnt doing it for archiving purposes so the pages are curled and stuff. I was thinking I could upload them, and then make a remastered version or whatever. A Text Document or something to accurately recreate the text. So I'd upload the real manual image and a remastered image. The manuals are only 1 page each and i have 5 of them I think. So what do you say?--[[User:MathUser|MathUser]] 11:38, 22 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
Hey SS, should the badniks in the development section also be mentioned? [[http://info.sonicretro.org/Game_Development:Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2_(16-bit)]] I mean, have a page also.<br />
<br />
Another message, if you look at game compilations, I think all of them recieved a E rating or the equivalent. This can be used to accumlate additional ratings for games that werent rated individually. It may be a small project for you but you could see how many countries a game was rated. If the compilation was rated E, then every single game on it will be that rating cause it cant go any lower. I started but I dont know if it is accurate, I just copy pasted the ratings from the compilation itself.--[[User:MathUser|MUser]] 20:47, 18 May 2009 (CDT)<br />
<br />
Well, I was unaware that a Sonic compilation got anything other than the lowest rating, I don't understand the ratings system of other countries. I was just clueing you into why I added those ratings on certain games. A few 8-bit titles had no ratings previously. I only looked over 2 compilations, SADX and Sonic Gems. Otherwise it might of been possible to give more ratings to other games, possibly.--[[User:MathUser|MUser]] 06:57, 19 May 2009 (CDT)<br />

I was going to have a try at article-ing the Rivals 2 stages, so if there's a source of appropriate pix somewhere on the Internets that's better than crappy IGN shots, I'll use it.

== DPL ==<br />
<br />
Greetings! I was wondering if there has been any discussion about installing [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DynamicPageList_%28third-party%29 DPL] on the Wiki. I can see a huge use for it. If it were installed, with permission, I would love to put together a better organizational method for hacking utilities. It could eventually be used to organize other things on the Wiki as well. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 23:14, 3 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
: I have no problem installing this, but I'll be honest--I'm not really sure how we would use it. Could you give a breakdown example? - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 04:32, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:: Sure. One way we could use it is to organize and display game hacks on a page. Some better categorization would need to be done on each hack, but once that is done, DPL can be used to pull template parameters from each page in a given category. A page could be made, for example, for all hacks of Sonic CD. This page could be '''automatically populated''' with a screenshot and author's name for each hack in the Sonic CD category (as defined in a specific template used on that page, [[Template:Hack]] in this case). So if the screenshot of a hack changes, or if a new hack altogether is added to the Sonic CD Hacks category, that page is updated automatically. DPL could also be used the same way to populate the thumbnails in [[Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(Archie_comics)#Cover Gallery]] or even in [[Template:ArchieComics]] as they are created in individual pages, so someone doesn't have to remember to go back and add a new thumbnail manually. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 04:51, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:::Everything should now be set up. Let's see whatcha got. ;) - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 05:17, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
::::Thanks! I look forward using it. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 05:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Thanks for moving the comic pages. You actually didn't need to change the issue number used on the template, because that number is only used for display. The pages are ordered by their title, which was causing the problem. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 18:41, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
So as far as organizing hacks goes, what do you think about classifying them according to these qualities? We shouldn't make these categories...we'd just be specifying these qualities in Template:Hack for each hack:<br />
* Visual (pallete, art)<br />
* Audio (music, sound effects)<br />
* Level layout<br />
* Basic engine changes (physics, spin dash)<br />
* Advanced engine changes (new menus, characters, advanced moves) <br />

==Flowplayer==<br />
I think there's issues with multiple flowplayer videos on one page. The videos don't all show up on [[Sonic_Adventure_Commercials]] and [[Spike damage behavior]]. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 15:23, 28 December 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Sidebar links ==<br />
<br />
Is it necessary for every link in the navigation sidebar to point to a category page? [[:Category:Sonic Community Hacking Guide]], for example, is just a giant unorganized list of pages, whereas [[SCHG:Sonic Community Hacking Guide]] is pretty much the same list except organized properly and thus much easier to navigate. On the other hand, it's also the first link on the category page, so I dunno. --[[User:Shobiz|Shobiz]] 19:36, 26 May 2010 (UTC)<br />
:I don't suppose it has to in every situations, especially ones where things don't move around much like the SCHG. - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 19:56, 26 May 2010 (UTC)<br />

==Music Removal==<br />
I don't mean to be nosy, but aren't those tracks (S3D and Sonic CD 95) part of the OSV project, and MEANT for download? I can understand removal of entire albums, as that would waste serious bandwidth, but isn't this different somehow? --[[User:RGamer2009|RGamer2009]] 01:09, 10 March 2011 (UTC)<br />
:It really is different; why on Earth are entire parts of the OSV project being removed?!? This doesn't make sense! Unless they're violating copyright law, then I can see why it's being done. --[[User:Gxm110|Gxm110]] 00:19, 11 March 2011 (UTC)<br />
::Bandwidth keeps going over our limit. Sorry. - [[User:Andlabs|Andlabs]] 00:24, 11 March 2011 (UTC)<br />

Hi there! For some reason, your high-res scan of the US “Sonic 3D Blast” Saturn box art isn’t showing up in full resolution. Try it yourself: [[Image:S3dss-box-us.jpg|25px]] If you click “Full resolution,” you get the same image as the preview (478×800), even though the file page says the full resolution is 2830×4791.

== New Sonic 2 prototype found! ==<br />
<br />
Theres a whole lotta info about this version of sonic 2, which was recently dumped by drx not too long ago... you might wanna read about the proto here: http://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2_(CENSOR_prototype)<br />
<br />
P.S: Hopefully the file itself w/info gets submitted into the Sonic 2 beta page over at Sonic Retro soon! The info states that this prototype is the potentially missing "beta 3", which has some unique differences comparing to beta 4! Theres even news about the censor prototype here: https://hiddenpalace.org/News/What_Was_Once_Old_Is_New_Again<br />
<br />
P.S #2: You can even look at the comparisons here: http://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2_(CENSOR_prototype)/Comparisons<br />

<br />
P.S: Hopefully the file itself w/info gets submitted into the Sonic 2 beta page over at Sonic Retro soon! The info states that this prototype is the potentially missing "beta 3", which has some unique differences comparing to beta 4! Theres even news about the censor prototype here: https://hiddenpalace.org/News/What_Was_Once_Old_Is_New_Again<br />

I have some manual images of those McDonalds games. But the guy that took the pics wasnt doing it for archiving purposes so the pages are curled and stuff. I was thinking I could upload them, and then make a remastered version or whatever. A Text Document or something to accurately recreate the text. So I'd upload the real manual image and a remastered image. The manuals are only 1 page each and i have 5 of them I think. So what do you say?--[[User:MathUser|MathUser]] 11:38, 22 October 2008 (UTC)<br />

<br />
Hey SS, should the badniks in the development section also be mentioned? [[http://info.sonicretro.org/Game_Development:Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2_(16-bit)]] I mean, have a page also.<br />
<br />
Another message, if you look at game compilations, I think all of them recieved a E rating or the equivalent. This can be used to accumlate additional ratings for games that werent rated individually. It may be a small project for you but you could see how many countries a game was rated. If the compilation was rated E, then every single game on it will be that rating cause it cant go any lower. I started but I dont know if it is accurate, I just copy pasted the ratings from the compilation itself.--[[User:MathUser|MUser]] 20:47, 18 May 2009 (CDT)<br />
<br />
Well, I was unaware that a Sonic compilation got anything other than the lowest rating, I don't understand the ratings system of other countries. I was just clueing you into why I added those ratings on certain games. A few 8-bit titles had no ratings previously. I only looked over 2 compilations, SADX and Sonic Gems. Otherwise it might of been possible to give more ratings to other games, possibly.--[[User:MathUser|MUser]] 06:57, 19 May 2009 (CDT)<br />

== DPL ==<br />
<br />
Greetings! I was wondering if there has been any discussion about installing [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DynamicPageList_%28third-party%29 DPL] on the Wiki. I can see a huge use for it. If it were installed, with permission, I would love to put together a better organizational method for hacking utilities. It could eventually be used to organize other things on the Wiki as well. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 23:14, 3 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
: I have no problem installing this, but I'll be honest--I'm not really sure how we would use it. Could you give a breakdown example? - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 04:32, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:: Sure. One way we could use it is to organize and display game hacks on a page. Some better categorization would need to be done on each hack, but once that is done, DPL can be used to pull template parameters from each page in a given category. A page could be made, for example, for all hacks of Sonic CD. This page could be '''automatically populated''' with a screenshot and author's name for each hack in the Sonic CD category (as defined in a specific template used on that page, [[Template:Hack]] in this case). So if the screenshot of a hack changes, or if a new hack altogether is added to the Sonic CD Hacks category, that page is updated automatically. DPL could also be used the same way to populate the thumbnails in [[Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(Archie_comics)#Cover Gallery]] or even in [[Template:ArchieComics]] as they are created in individual pages, so someone doesn't have to remember to go back and add a new thumbnail manually. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 04:51, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:::Everything should now be set up. Let's see whatcha got. ;) - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 05:17, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
::::Thanks! I look forward using it. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 05:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Thanks for moving the comic pages. You actually didn't need to change the issue number used on the template, because that number is only used for display. The pages are ordered by their title, which was causing the problem. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 18:41, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
So as far as organizing hacks goes, what do you think about classifying them according to these qualities? We shouldn't make these categories...we'd just be specifying these qualities in Template:Hack for each hack:<br />
* Visual (pallete, art)<br />
* Audio (music, sound effects)<br />
* Level layout<br />
* Basic engine changes (physics, spin dash)<br />
* Advanced engine changes (new menus, characters, advanced moves) <br />

<br />
== Sidebar links ==<br />
<br />
Is it necessary for every link in the navigation sidebar to point to a category page? [[:Category:Sonic Community Hacking Guide]], for example, is just a giant unorganized list of pages, whereas [[SCHG:Sonic Community Hacking Guide]] is pretty much the same list except organized properly and thus much easier to navigate. On the other hand, it's also the first link on the category page, so I dunno. --[[User:Shobiz|Shobiz]] 19:36, 26 May 2010 (UTC)<br />

I have some manual images of those McDonalds games. But the guy that took the pics wasnt doing it for archiving purposes so the pages are curled and stuff. I was thinking I could upload them, and then make a remastered version or whatever. A Text Document or something to accurately recreate the text. So I'd upload the real manual image and a remastered image. The manuals are only 1 page each and i have 5 of them I think. So what do you say?--[[User:MathUser|MathUser]] 11:38, 22 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
Hey SS, should the badniks in the development section also be mentioned? [[http://info.sonicretro.org/Game_Development:Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2_(16-bit)]] I mean, have a page also.<br />
<br />
Another message, if you look at game compilations, I think all of them recieved a E rating or the equivalent. This can be used to accumlate additional ratings for games that werent rated individually. It may be a small project for you but you could see how many countries a game was rated. If the compilation was rated E, then every single game on it will be that rating cause it cant go any lower. I started but I dont know if it is accurate, I just copy pasted the ratings from the compilation itself.--[[User:MathUser|MUser]] 20:47, 18 May 2009 (CDT)<br />
<br />
Well, I was unaware that a Sonic compilation got anything other than the lowest rating, I don't understand the ratings system of other countries. I was just clueing you into why I added those ratings on certain games. A few 8-bit titles had no ratings previously. I only looked over 2 compilations, SADX and Sonic Gems. Otherwise it might of been possible to give more ratings to other games, possibly.--[[User:MathUser|MUser]] 06:57, 19 May 2009 (CDT)<br />

== DPL ==<br />
<br />
Greetings! I was wondering if there has been any discussion about installing [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DynamicPageList_%28third-party%29 DPL] on the Wiki. I can see a huge use for it. If it were installed, with permission, I would love to put together a better organizational method for hacking utilities. It could eventually be used to organize other things on the Wiki as well. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 23:14, 3 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
: I have no problem installing this, but I'll be honest--I'm not really sure how we would use it. Could you give a breakdown example? - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 04:32, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:: Sure. One way we could use it is to organize and display game hacks on a page. Some better categorization would need to be done on each hack, but once that is done, DPL can be used to pull template parameters from each page in a given category. A page could be made, for example, for all hacks of Sonic CD. This page could be '''automatically populated''' with a screenshot and author's name for each hack in the Sonic CD category (as defined in a specific template used on that page, [[Template:Hack]] in this case). So if the screenshot of a hack changes, or if a new hack altogether is added to the Sonic CD Hacks category, that page is updated automatically. DPL could also be used the same way to populate the thumbnails in [[Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(Archie_comics)#Cover Gallery]] or even in [[Template:ArchieComics]] as they are created in individual pages, so someone doesn't have to remember to go back and add a new thumbnail manually. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 04:51, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:::Everything should now be set up. Let's see whatcha got. ;) - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 05:17, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
::::Thanks! I look forward using it. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 05:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Thanks for moving the comic pages. You actually didn't need to change the issue number used on the template, because that number is only used for display. The pages are ordered by their title, which was causing the problem. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 18:41, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
So as far as organizing hacks goes, what do you think about classifying them according to these qualities? We shouldn't make these categories...we'd just be specifying these qualities in Template:Hack for each hack:<br />
* Visual (pallete, art)<br />
* Audio (music, sound effects)<br />
* Level layout<br />
* Basic engine changes (physics, spin dash)<br />
* Advanced engine changes (new menus, characters, advanced moves) <br />

==Flowplayer==<br />
I think there's issues with multiple flowplayer videos on one page. The videos don't all show up on [[Sonic_Adventure_Commercials]] and [[Spike damage behavior]]. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 15:23, 28 December 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Sidebar links ==<br />
<br />
Is it necessary for every link in the navigation sidebar to point to a category page? [[:Category:Sonic Community Hacking Guide]], for example, is just a giant unorganized list of pages, whereas [[SCHG:Sonic Community Hacking Guide]] is pretty much the same list except organized properly and thus much easier to navigate. On the other hand, it's also the first link on the category page, so I dunno. --[[User:Shobiz|Shobiz]] 19:36, 26 May 2010 (UTC)<br />
:I don't suppose it has to in every situations, especially ones where things don't move around much like the SCHG. - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 19:56, 26 May 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Wait... ==<br />
<br />
What if you throw that into a template, like [[:Template:HideCategoryListing]]? --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 02:29, 7 August 2010 (UTC)<br />
:BRILLIANT IDEA I WAS JUST TOO EXCITED - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 02:35, 7 August 2010 (UTC)<br />
Well I'm not sure how consistently active I can be, but I definitely want to help where I can. It would be very helpful for making that occasional article move without bugging other people. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 04:00, 7 August 2010 (UTC)<br />

==Music Removal==<br />
I don't mean to be nosy, but aren't those tracks (S3D and Sonic CD 95) part of the OSV project, and MEANT for download? I can understand removal of entire albums, as that would waste serious bandwidth, but isn't this different somehow? --[[User:RGamer2009|RGamer2009]] 01:09, 10 March 2011 (UTC)<br />
:It really is different; why on Earth are entire parts of the OSV project being removed?!? This doesn't make sense! Unless they're violating copyright law, then I can see why it's being done. --[[User:Gxm110|Gxm110]] 00:19, 11 March 2011 (UTC)<br />
::Bandwidth keeps going over our limit. Sorry. - [[User:Andlabs|Andlabs]] 00:24, 11 March 2011 (UTC)<br />

I have some manual images of those McDonalds games. But the guy that took the pics wasnt doing it for archiving purposes so the pages are curled and stuff. I was thinking I could upload them, and then make a remastered version or whatever. A Text Document or something to accurately recreate the text. So I'd upload the real manual image and a remastered image. The manuals are only 1 page each and i have 5 of them I think. So what do you say?--[[User:MathUser|MathUser]] 11:38, 22 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
Hey SS, should the badniks in the development section also be mentioned? [[http://info.sonicretro.org/Game_Development:Sonic_the_Hedgehog_2_(16-bit)]] I mean, have a page also.<br />
<br />
Another message, if you look at game compilations, I think all of them recieved a E rating or the equivalent. This can be used to accumlate additional ratings for games that werent rated individually. It may be a small project for you but you could see how many countries a game was rated. If the compilation was rated E, then every single game on it will be that rating cause it cant go any lower. I started but I dont know if it is accurate, I just copy pasted the ratings from the compilation itself.--[[User:MathUser|MUser]] 20:47, 18 May 2009 (CDT)<br />
<br />
Well, I was unaware that a Sonic compilation got anything other than the lowest rating, I don't understand the ratings system of other countries. I was just clueing you into why I added those ratings on certain games. A few 8-bit titles had no ratings previously. I only looked over 2 compilations, SADX and Sonic Gems. Otherwise it might of been possible to give more ratings to other games, possibly.--[[User:MathUser|MUser]] 06:57, 19 May 2009 (CDT)<br />

I was going to have a try at article-ing the Rivals 2 stages, so if there's a source of appropriate pix somewhere on the Internets that's better than crappy IGN shots, I'll use it.

== DPL ==<br />
<br />
Greetings! I was wondering if there has been any discussion about installing [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DynamicPageList_%28third-party%29 DPL] on the Wiki. I can see a huge use for it. If it were installed, with permission, I would love to put together a better organizational method for hacking utilities. It could eventually be used to organize other things on the Wiki as well. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 23:14, 3 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
: I have no problem installing this, but I'll be honest--I'm not really sure how we would use it. Could you give a breakdown example? - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 04:32, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:: Sure. One way we could use it is to organize and display game hacks on a page. Some better categorization would need to be done on each hack, but once that is done, DPL can be used to pull template parameters from each page in a given category. A page could be made, for example, for all hacks of Sonic CD. This page could be '''automatically populated''' with a screenshot and author's name for each hack in the Sonic CD category (as defined in a specific template used on that page, [[Template:Hack]] in this case). So if the screenshot of a hack changes, or if a new hack altogether is added to the Sonic CD Hacks category, that page is updated automatically. DPL could also be used the same way to populate the thumbnails in [[Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(Archie_comics)#Cover Gallery]] or even in [[Template:ArchieComics]] as they are created in individual pages, so someone doesn't have to remember to go back and add a new thumbnail manually. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 04:51, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
:::Everything should now be set up. Let's see whatcha got. ;) - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 05:17, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
::::Thanks! I look forward using it. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 05:24, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
Thanks for moving the comic pages. You actually didn't need to change the issue number used on the template, because that number is only used for display. The pages are ordered by their title, which was causing the problem. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 18:41, 4 November 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
So as far as organizing hacks goes, what do you think about classifying them according to these qualities? We shouldn't make these categories...we'd just be specifying these qualities in Template:Hack for each hack:<br />
* Visual (pallete, art)<br />
* Audio (music, sound effects)<br />
* Level layout<br />
* Basic engine changes (physics, spin dash)<br />
* Advanced engine changes (new menus, characters, advanced moves) <br />

==Flowplayer==<br />
I think there's issues with multiple flowplayer videos on one page. The videos don't all show up on [[Sonic_Adventure_Commercials]] and [[Spike damage behavior]]. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 15:23, 28 December 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Sidebar links ==<br />
<br />
Is it necessary for every link in the navigation sidebar to point to a category page? [[:Category:Sonic Community Hacking Guide]], for example, is just a giant unorganized list of pages, whereas [[SCHG:Sonic Community Hacking Guide]] is pretty much the same list except organized properly and thus much easier to navigate. On the other hand, it's also the first link on the category page, so I dunno. --[[User:Shobiz|Shobiz]] 19:36, 26 May 2010 (UTC)<br />
:I don't suppose it has to in every situations, especially ones where things don't move around much like the SCHG. - [[User:Scarred Sun|Scarred Sun]] 19:56, 26 May 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Wait... ==<br />

Well I'm not sure how consistently active I can be, but I definitely want to help where I can. It would be very helpful for making that occasional article move without bugging other people. --[[User:PicklePower|PicklePower]] 04:00, 7 August 2010 (UTC)<br />

==Music Removal==<br />
I don't mean to be nosy, but aren't those tracks (S3D and Sonic CD 95) part of the OSV project, and MEANT for download? I can understand removal of entire albums, as that would waste serious bandwidth, but isn't this different somehow? --[[User:RGamer2009|RGamer2009]] 01:09, 10 March 2011 (UTC)<br />
:It really is different; why on Earth are entire parts of the OSV project being removed?!? This doesn't make sense! Unless they're violating copyright law, then I can see why it's being done. --[[User:Gxm110|Gxm110]] 00:19, 11 March 2011 (UTC)<br />
::Bandwidth keeps going over our limit. Sorry. - [[User:Andlabs|Andlabs]] 00:24, 11 March 2011 (UTC)<br />

==== What is Sonic 2 Beta? ====<br />
:Sonic 2 Beta is an unfinished, prototype version of Sonic 2. Sega sent these out to magazine companies for preview before the final version was out.<br />
<br />
==== What's the big deal about an unfinished prototype version? ====<br />
:Some "lost" levels can be found in the beta version. Lost levels are zones that were originally planned to be included in the final release of Sonic 2, but were missing in the final version. The lost levels include a [[Dust Hill Zone|desert level]], [[S2Beta:Prototype Zones/Wood|Wood Zone]], [[S2Beta:Prototype Zones/Hidden Palace|Hidden Palace Zone]] and [[S2Beta:Prototype Zones/Genocide City|Genocide City Zone]]. Some existing zones have special features that are not available in the final version, such as the wooden balls in [[S2Beta:Prototype Zones/Oil Ocean|Oil Ocean Zone]].<br />
<br />
====Why were some levels canned? ====<br />
:Although there's a general "consensus" that time seemed to be the largest limiting factor into why levels were canned, the precise reasons behind many of the levels are still unknown, and are therefore open questions in the Sonic Retro community for further refinement.<br />
<br />
:However, as alluded to earlier, general factors exist which prevented many of the levels from being playable. Time, although one of them, was not necessarily the only reason. Technical limitations at the time and even company politics could have played a large role in the cancellation of many levels. Regardless, detailed explanations for cancellations aren't known.<br />
