Smile Office Desk transformed into Green Hill Zone (Sonic)

The Community Manager of Sega America, Aaron Webber, went on vacation for 3 weeks and we had some fun with this desk - maybe too much fun. Enjoy!



Wow, nice job.

I saw this on the Escapist. It's impressive stuff and I love the way that the whole office takes part in making all the scenery.

Wow, imagine if they spent that time working on sonic games. Now that would be cool. Seriously though that is very epic. I'd keep it that way if it wasn't so distracting. No way he's getting any work done while it's set up like that.

It's a good prank but also an excellent bit of PR and free publicity especially given that there are TWO Sonic games on the way, one of which featuring plenty of nods to the original game.

I don't think those office monkeys work on games.

I don't think that community rep guy does any real work anyway.

3 weeks sounds like the amount of time they probably spend on the sonic games to me

Yes I have. Just about every sonic game excluding the GG titles and a few older titles.
