Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Special Edition/Headscratchers

• In full awareness of the absurdity of making a "Just Bugs Me" question for this thing — what was the "evil influence" on Tails' mind that Balrog-Vectorman-Amy spoke of? I... I was actually wondering where that was going.
  • I'm glad I wasn't the only one! I finally took it as just being some random evil influence, no real reason or explanation. Embrace the madness and all.
  • Sunshine?
• Second question: Why isn't there a review page? I wanted to praise the demented, good-natured genius at work here.
  • There is now. I just wish there was a WMG page so I can plant my Epileptic Trees including that about how Failure Cresh is dead (how else can he be reincarnated?).
    • Failure Cresh can survive having his head separated from his body. He can't survive having his head smashed open by Sonic's spin attack. Which we saw Sonic (or was it Amy?) do.
      • He can't have survived for long. All that blood pumping out, by now he would've just been a pile of grossness by now.
• Isn't this a fan-hack?
  • No, but I wish it was.
  • Footage from some of the videos was taken from different fan-hacks, or from obscure real games. For example, the "8-Bit" portion of Aquatic Ruin zone was taken from Sonic the Hedgehog Pocket Adventure, Act 3 of Metropolis Zone was taken from the unreleased beta of a videogame adaptation of Sat AM Sonic the Hedgehog, and the Unexpected Shmup Level--where Docfuture fought various Sega game systems--was the last level of Segagaga.
