Sonic the Hedgehog 3

"Sonic 3 & Knuckles" is one of the most epic games I've ever played. Knuckles' story tends to be more dramatic, what with the 'shadowy Dr. Eggman' (Dr.Eggman/Robotnik with a helmet on), fighting Metallix (AKA Mecha Sonic, AKA Metal Sonic) twice and finding fun hidden passages around the ruins of Angel Island that Sonic and Tails can neither access (unless you're using the handy-dandy debug setting). There isn't an act in the game that I don't love, but my absolute favorite is The Doomsday Zone Act 2 in which starts out in silence with Sonic/Tails/Knuckles spinning through one of the reverse polarity machines (Which turns the sprite of your choice upside down). Many SNES "Donky Kong Country" fans hate the soundtrack to this game because DKC had more dimension. I, for one, wish that a composer and a DJ would collabarate and turn the tunes into music preformed by live instuments.

I feel influences of Michael Jackson's "Keep it in the Closet" in the Carnival Night Zone theme and I'm feeling a bit of Phil Collins' 'Both Sides' album style and Genesis' 'We Can't Dance' album style mixed in the 2-player selection music. A lovely mix of music and epic gaming that after 10 years I still cannot put down.

Sonic the Hedgehog is one of the most famous video games of all time! The characters, the jumping, the power-ups, and the sure thrill of adventure makes this entire series a fun non-stop playing time! Below is a brief look how I think the game is!

Game Play: The game play is very good. There is really basic controls here and is easy to perform. Novice gamers should have a good time here!

Graphics: The graphics are wonderful. The backgrounds are really beautiful!

Difficulty: The game is easy but as it goes on you''s find out that it will become more difficult!

Music: The music is great! Just fantastic catchy tunes through out the game! In My opinion its some of the best music ever in a video game!

Sound: The sound is great. Nuff said!

Overall: I have always loved Sonic the Hedgehog! If you like excellent adventure games then I strongly recommend you play this game!

"SONIC 3" (1994) is a fast, vibrant game that boasts incredible level designs, a soundtrack with plenty of texture, new and interesting special stages, and a lot of abilities for players to get their teeth into. Although the levels are bigger and more elaborate than the first two games "SONIC 3" should give any Sonic The Hedgehog fans much of the same stuff they enjoy.

This was the first game I ever completed 100% and it means a great deal to me but I have to say it isn't as complete a package as it's predecessors. Somehow it doesn't have the lovable soul that "SONIC THE HEDGEHOG" (1991) and "SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2" (1992) had and that's sad. The music, while very good in the moment, isn't as memorable or fun. The levels are often very fiddly, getting in the way of speed.

But it's still a great entry into the Sonic The Hedgehog franchise and I certainly recommend it.

For some reason, the third Sonic game doesn't pack the same punch as the first two. Sonic and Tails are back and the game offers new things: more new robots, new power ups and a brand new enemy, Knuckles. The game even takes place in a new setting. However, the game is just not as fun as the first two. Something appears to be lacking here and the game becomes boring very quickly. Might as well skip this one in the Sonic series.

I played this game on the Genesis Sega collection! It's so much fun and super amazing.
