Sonic and Knuckles & Sonic 3 Review by: Eddy88 - 10/10

Sonic 3 & Knuckles (Sega Genesis/Megadrive) Review.
Sonic to the Max.

In 1993, Sega created Sonic 3... Of course, the 1st. Thing that the players noticed was that the game was pretty shorter in comparison with Sonic 2... Also, the Ending of the game didn't felt like a Ending... In another words: It was an Open ending. Deception? Maybe a bit.

But then, In 1994... Sega make the Sequel: Sonic & Knuckles... This cartridge came up with a system named Lock on: With this simple thing (Another cartridge slot in the upper part of the Cartridge.) the player could fuse games: So, Sonic 3 + Sonic & Knuckles= a New Sonic game. The result was a real impact: A long game, more playable characters, more Emeralds, new transformations... The Dream of all Sonic fan of the Era!

Deception? What Deception? This is a master piece!... So, That Master piece (Named Sonic 3 & Knuckles) is the game that we're going to talk today... Ready? So, Let's Run thought!

History: The history is set just after the ending of Sonic 2. The Death Egg, build by Robotnik, is taken down by Sonic... The Robotnik's space station falls over a Floating Island named "Angel Island", the impact of the huge ship makes the island fall to the ocean... Amazingly, Robotnik survived to the fall. And he's helped by an Red Echidna named Knuckles... The evil doctor takes advantage of the Goodness of the inhabitant of the Island, and tells him that he just were escaping of two evil animals: A Hedgehog and a Two-Tailed fox. Knuckles believes on his story and decides to help the Doctor to get rid of them... Some days later, Sonic and Tails arrives to the Island (after hearing the rumors about Robotnik being still alive) but, the Red echidna attacks both, steals the Sonic's Chaos Emeralds and escapes... Our heroes chases him. And suddenly, then they find an Army of Badniks blocking their path. After defeating all, they figure out that Robotnik is still alive. To make the things worst: Robotnik is planning to steal the "Master Emerald" (the Island's main power generator) to power up the Death Egg.

So, as you see it's pretty long and interesting history. This might be the most complete history I've seen in the 16-Bits Sonic games. (9/10)

Graphics: If you have played the two (three, if we count Sonic CD) previous games. the 1st thing you will notice is that the Characters have new sprites. Also, the Backgrounds seems to had more details... Being far superior to the graphics of the previous games. The animations are smooth and some has nice details. (Like the characters making some powder clouds when breaking after taking a great speed) (9/10)

Sound: The music, just like the game, is a master piece. There's not two zones with the same music. Even each act has different music! (Which, usually, is a remake of the music of the previous act)... Launch base zone (both acts, Those voices saying "YO!" fits very well.) Hydropolis (2nd. Act) and Flying Battery (Both acts) are my favorites. Sound FX is the same as the other games (excepting by the Bosses explosion sound.) (10/10)

Addictiveness: The game addictive, Doesn't matter how many times you have finished it. You ever will want a bit more of it. (8/10)

Depth: Let's see: Sonic 3 alone has 6 zones, Sonic & Knuckles has 7... So, there re 13 zones in the game. (14 if you got all the emeralds)
also, Some zones have different kinds of traps and obstacles... Like puzzles or unbreakable walls.it also have three different kinds of shields, everyone gives the character some extras... So, As you see... This game offers a pretty good duration.(10/10)

Difficulty: Well, about difficulty... This game doesn't offer much of that... Figuring out how the beat the bosses isn't a challenge... If you lose a life, it will be because you got squashed or you felled into a pit. (6/10)

Final Rating: 10

This might be one of the Best Sonic games ever made. It can compete with Sonic 2 in terms of "Best saga game" if you're a huge Sonic fan... And you didn't played this game... You're committing a crime. So, Go and play this game. You will not get arrepented.

Sonic and Knuckles & Sonic 3 Cheat Codes

LEVEL SELECT

After the "SEGA" call, start a new game as any character. While in Angle Island Act 1, grab any swinging vine and, while swinging back and forth, enter left, left, left, right, right, right, up, up, up. You should hear a chime like you just grabbed a ring. Now, pause the game and push A. Back at the Main Menu, push up to reveal a secret option: "SOUND TEST". You will see all the zones and a sound test option hear. The small number under the Angle Island level means witch character your playing as. 00 Means Sonic and Tails. 01 Means Sonic alone. 02 Means Tails alone. And 03 means Knuckles.

DEBUG MODE

After entering the LEVEL SELECT code, go to Mushroom Hill zone and grab and of the pulley's found there ( those tall things that you need to climb by pushing down ). While hanging on one, enter left, left, left, right, right, right, up, up, up. Another ring chime will sound. Then, pause and press A. Go back to Level Select and choose the level and character you want to play as. Then, hold A and push START. Note: unlike the debug modes from Sonic 1 and Sonic 2, this time around, you have the option to reverse gravity.

Debug mode controlls:

Arrows: move.
A: reverse gravity as character/Change item in debug mode.
B: enter/exit debug mode.
C: place item/jump as character.

Hyper Sonic, Hyper Knuckles or Super Tails
Activate the level select and debug. When you enter debug mode, create a monitor. It will have an "S" on it. Jump on it to get 50 rings and become Hyper Sonic, Hyper Knuckles, or Super Tails!

 This is possibly the best Sonic game(s) ever made. It's definitely the best Sonic game(s) on the Genesis. Always loved Sonic and its Cyberpunk undertones.

 Best Sonic game in history. There needs to be an HD version with features to play with original or updated graphics, as well as a real recorded soundtrack. S3&K has incredible level design and one of the best video game soundtracks of all time IMO.

 Is there anyway to turn off the supersonic music?
thatsoundismine2 01-19-15 - 07:25 PM
 if you want sonic to turn into the last object you were in debug mode, jump into a ring but go in debug just before it takes you to the special stage, then go back out(when you die you'll turn back)
thatsoundismine2 01-19-15 - 07:20 PM
 In debug mode, try pressing jump and mode switch at the same time to make your character have a seizure/spaz attack!!
janus 01-08-15 - 05:27 PM
