But with the short view, it becomes a chore. The landscaping starts to look the same and there's really no way to judge when a trap is coming up unless you're a mental stopwatch. I don't mind the hidden trap in games, but I'd at least like to be able to see where it's coming from, and possibly even avoid it the first time. That's impossible to do if you can't even see the suspicious wall/plate in the ground/rock formation up ahead.

The biggest problem is the spikes. I remember in the old Sonic games, they would hide them behind bushes. And the spikes would be next near impossible to see. So you'd be all like "La la la, I'm running around like a dumbass, la de de la de da" then BOOM! Metal spike in the arse.

Thats one of the traps I didn't like, but the one I hated most were the bouncy spring ones. You manage to jump over a spike pit, and start to continue on your way, and bam, you hit the spring and get jetisaed back into the pit.

Sorry I've been off the board for a bit. We just had a major Milestone at work, so I was working all night this week to get the a focus test version of our game ready. I just read the IGN article on Sonic Chronicles though, and was rather impressed. Though one thing confused the hell out of me: IGN: What kinds of locales will gamers recognize from the Sonic series?
Mark Darrah To name a few: Green Hill Zone, Central City, Mystic Ruins and the Blue Ridge Zone What the devil is Blue Ridge zone?!

Not sure. Sounds like he made something up, or he might be referring to a level that's well...blue.
I almost said "Hidden Palace Zone" there...

=/
wut?
I'll check on the more obscure Sonic titles for this, as none of the 2D, 3D, or advance series come to mind at all. It's also possible that Zone can come from Sonic Rivals, Sonic '06, or Sonic 3D Blast. I'll google it if all else fails.

EDIT: IGN lies! :-O
THERE IS NO BLUE RIDGE ZONE!

I just did a quick google search, and the only results were from the IGN article. It could well be from Rivals. Those Zones never struck me as anything memorable, which says a lot given I even know of Toy Kingdom Zone, Chaos Angel Zone, and Crystal Egg Zone.
I wonder if it was a error on Bioware's part? I mean, perhaps it's a new level that they've added and mixed it up with the old stuff, or did they just mistake Aqua Plant Zone or Turquoise Hill Zone for Blue ridge?

WhoawhoawhoawhoawhoawhoawhoaWHOAWHOAWHOAWHOAWHOAWHOA****ING HOLD THE PHONE!
Amy's no longer stalking Sonic to try to experience the "blue bone"?
I...I don't know how to go on...
I mean...after all the horrible nightmares...I...I even named my...special place "Amy Rose" and also refer to it by the name of "Piko Piko Hammer"
Tell me this is a lie, RP, TELL ME THIS IS A LIE!

*shoves all chips on the 'Either brainwashed, hypnatized, or otherwise being controlled by someone else' area for Amy*

Well she COULD just be trying to make blue boy jealous...
I'm praying that's what it is...cause...well...I was actually starting to like her psychopathic stalker ways...

Weirdo, it is a lie. It's a lie because I said so.

That is incredible. I looks photoshopped, but I think the idea of Amy moving on with her her life, causing Sonic to miss her would be priceless. It would also be a nice, though hopefully temporary, change to the formula. Also, we'd get to meet another hedgehog who isn't some sort of Chaos-infused hero-type.
Of course, Dexter is totally going to get his ass handed to him by Sonic at some point.
*Anyone else notice that Sonic's arm is Blue in that shot?*
