The GHZ -- Y2K Millennium Event

-- Y2K Millennium Event -- If you're sick of all those Time Attack world rankings where the upper positions are dominated solely by glitch opportunists and 12-year old Japanese kids who have nothing better to do with their youth than throttle every single level deep into their psyche to the point where playing the game is no longer fun just so they know how to finish Emerald Coast in 5.3 seconds...freak not, there is still reason to visit the Sonic Adventure website. We've got those seasonal downloads, and a new one was just posted on the 30th.

The "Y2K Millennium Event" download (68 blocks) challenges you to locate the giant 2000 Ring hidden in each Action Stage. There's usually one to each area, although some can only be reached with certain characters. Most of 'em are right out in the open, but a few are hidden pretty stinking well. Locate the Ring and touch it to get the message: "Have a Happy New Year in 2K! Please support Sonic in 2K!" Well, the latter is assured.

The BGM also changes to that of Palmtree Panic (the Naofumi Hataya original, not the US Spencer Nilsen one) from Sonic CD. It starts off in its Present version, then jumps into G-Mix (Good Future). Huh...first it was Dreams Dreams A Cappella, now Palmtree Panic. I wonder what other golden oldies they've hidden on the SA disc? Here's hoping we get "I Just Smile" for Valentine's Day!
