Time to relive the memory’s! ….AGAIN! good stuff though ~
Sonic 3 & Knuckles is still the best!
Way to not advertise the S&K lock on Sega! Bravo!
The trailer is on the FTP since press release.
This is why I love SEGA SO MUCH
I’ve really got to get around to finishing Sonic 3 lol. I think I got stuck and then sidetracked. Sonic 2 was always my favourite anyway 😉
I have SUGC, which is jam packed full of every Sega classic I would ever want, so I don’t think I’d be using this even if I HAD Xbox Live or Playstation Network.
I have to admit getting the 4th , 5th, 6th, & 7th emeralds were pure hell in Sonic 3 but it was worth play for 3 hours …
why doesnt the Wii have Sonic 3 -_- for the Wii Shop yet like the gamegear versions are like stupid
I heard that Sonic and Knuckles was going to be released on the 31st of July. It isn’t here yet 🙁 What’s going on?
