Forum:Have you ever wondered?

I tend to aks myself questions on Sonic's world that seem to minor or pointless to bring about on Articles. But I do wonde rif you ask yourself these questions.

Like, Zones! Sure what about them? But in recent Sonic games they are renamed Action Stages or just stages. I always wonder, to the residents nearby these stages or perhaps Sonic and friends offscreen still refer them as Zones? Or does a Zone just classify a certain environment. I always thought what classified a Zone is when the environment of the large location has natual occuring yet unique enviromental structures. And of course laiden with traps and robots by Robotnikto slow the player down, but still no where else would you find such interesting structure than a "Zone". which is why I wonder if the NPCs or offscreen characters still refer to the stages as "Zones"?

Another thing I have been pondering over since I got Sonic Unleashed is that do the stages there also count as Zone, as well as the fact that these Zones are in the towns and cities. Now while usually urban base, there has been urban base zones like Spring Yard Zone and Starlight Zone, If there are houses in the Zones of Sonic Unleashed, does that mean people actually live in the Zones? How do the people think or feel of Sonic running right past there homes? How do they go outside or get to work being in the middle of all those obsticals?

Lastly, I been thinking of doing a comic based in Empire City, of cars driving along the highway of Skyscraper Scamper and then they find the whole road seem to be going up, over and into a loop.

Seriously, the cities are much larger and full of interesting things than the simple Hubs that Sonic explores in Unleashed, but it seems that if anyone needs to access other parts of the city than simply the entrance they need to navigate there way through the Zone smack-bang in the middle.

Has anyone had these little questions before? What have you always questioned?--Mystic Monkey  sez 20:32, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
