Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Some people remember Knuckles Chaotix, the only Sonic the Hedgehog game to appear on Sega's 32X console. Far fewer remember this Sonic game that almost appeared on the doomed console.Sonic 2: Special Edition was originally conceived as an Updated Re-release of the extremely successful Sonic the Hedgehog 2, but this was complicated when Sonic Team decided to take advantage of the capabilities of the 32X by adding a ton of new content, to the degree that many of the later levels bore only a passing resemblance to those in the original game. By 1996, the game was a few months away from its release date, and the ballooning project had barely avoided collapsing under its own weight — then Sega's decision to cease supporting the 32X caused the project to be canned altogether. The legend of this game persisted for years afterwards, as copies of the beta (and a rumored handful of finished games, manufactured but never sold) were highly sought after by hardcore collectors, but none ever turned up...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Then in 2007, on the Something Awful forum, docfuture (aka Robotnik DDS) revealed that he had a copy of Sonic 2: Special Edition, given to him as a present by his uncle (a Nintendo employee who pulled a few strings to get the game... or maybe he just bought it from Chinese bootleggers—it's not clear). Further, he decided to start a Let's Play thread to share this weird piece of Sonic history with the entire world.From watching the LP, it's clear that, had Sonic 2: Special Edition been released, it would've been the greatest game ever made. While rough at some points, it is clear that if development continued, it would have been a classic that would have influenced games to this day.What's that? You doubt that this game actually exists? Oh, so you're the one responsible for the shoddy graphics...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })As may be gathered from the tropes below, Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Special Edition is an elaborate hoax LP by docfuture, spanning everything from the surreal to the horrific. docfuture's LP can be watched here on the Let's Play Archive, or here on the Internet Archive. |

comment |
Power Creep, Power Seep: Knuckles, who explicitly can't jump as high as Sonic in Sonic 3 & Knuckles, can jump high enough to leave the atmosphere from Aquatic Ruin Zone in this game. There is a cheat code to nerf him to more reasonable levels, but even then he still jumps high enough to cross the upper boundary of the level. |

Anticlimax Boss / Zero-Effort Boss: invoked Sonic 2's original endgame is nerfed for some reason. The Wing Fortress boss is the same, but you fight it as Super Sonic. In Death Egg Zone, Silver Sonic doesn't fight at all, and just directs you to the location of the final boss...who goes down after a single hit. |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!: In No Blood For Oil Zone, docfuture destroys a 10-ring monitor, blissfully unaware that he's actually killing (Mercy Killing?) Failure Cresh. In Sky Chase Zone, when Sonic destroys badniks and frees the animals inside, said animals simply fall off the bottom of the screen. Docfuture wonders where the animals are falling to. Cut to New York City, where the animals are landing and completely destroying buildings upon impact. |

Stealth Parody: If you haven't figured it out yet, Sonic 2: Special Edition doesn't exist and docfuture's LP is a joke. The Emerald Hill Zone video is actually a pretty convincing hoaxnote aside from misspelling the zone name at the start of act 2, using music from OverClocked ReMix and Machinae Supremacy, and a brief Big-Lipped Alligator Moment as Sonic approaches the boss...oh, and the opening screen has the game copyright 1991, the year the first Sonic game came out, but every subsequent video adds increasing amounts of random crap to clue in the viewers that it's a joke... and to hurt the brain of anyone who doesn't get the joke. He was inspired by the development secrets of Sonic 2. |

comment |
"Where Are They Now?" Epilogue: Modeled after the one from Animal House. Knuckles the Echidna became a professional beekeeper. Mikhail Gorbachev became the mascot of Fruity Pebbles. Silver Sonic is a judge with attitude who don't take no crap. Melissa Joan Hart became the first woman to walk on the moon. Disney's Aladdin is currently serving time in Guantanamo Bay. Dr. Robotnik is so fat that he stepped on a rainbow and made Skittles. Amy Rose built the world's first solar-powered buffalo. Sonic and Tails are married with five daughters. Ray the Squirrel holds the world record for least employed squirrel. Failure Cresh was reincarnated as John Belushi. |

By the final level, docfuture acknowledges that the game has gone completely bonkers, but he'd rather just take Evil Crazy Tails' advice and just not worry about it. |

Fission Mailed: When you beat Hilltop Zone, you get a Game Over screen anyway and get sent back to the pre-level cutscene. After the third fakeout Game Over, the game sends you back to the pre-title screen credits — and then proclaims "You've Unlocked Your Fate", indicating that you beat the level after all. (These may, however, be caused by Tails getting back at the player.) In the particularly Mind Screwy final levels, a fake ending cutscene is followed by another level... underwater, with no air bubbles. Sonic drowns. Then the credits start rolling, and get interrupted by a Record Needle Scratch and another cutscene. Then the real final levels happen. |

Abusive Advertising: docfuture plays some TV ads for the game, including one where Sonic harasses a live-action Mario and Luigi while the narrator declares, "Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Special Edition. Only for Sega 32X CD. Buy it, or I'll find you." |

Video Game Cruelty Punishment: See Artificial Brilliance and Breaking the Fourth Wall, above. If you mistreat Tails (by, say, abandoning him in Casino Night Zone), his "hints" are replaced by passive-aggressive mockery, and he eventually tries to kill you in Wing Fortress Zone. |

Fun with Subtitles: The Toe Jam And Earl: Panic on Funkotron commercial in the middle of Aquatic Ruin Zone features subtitles for a "non-funk speaking audience". |

Brick Joke: In Sky Chase, Tails sarcastically mentions the following: Guess how the Mystic Cave boss "cures" his brainwashing? |

Shown Their Work: There's a surprising amount of obscure Sonic trivia hidden in the LP, including footage from the cancelled Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) game, as well as from the (equally cancelled) Sonic Ride. |
