About this product

Product Information

Sonic, Tails, and Dr. Robotnik return in "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" for the Sega Genesis. This retro release is a milestone in the series as it was the first game to features Knuckles the Echidna. Rather than the hero who Knuckles is known to be, he is one of the antagonists in this Genesis game. When Robotnik's flying ship crashes onto Knuckles' home, Angel Island, the doctor convinces Knuckles that Sonic and Tails are the enemies. Throughout the course of this five-hour adventure, you will battle Knuckles and Dr. Robotnik through six zones, and each zone contains two levels. It is rated as suitable for all ages from kids to adults."Sonic the Hedgehog 3" provides similar gameplay as previous video games in the franchise. Play as either Sonic or Tails, and you'll jump and dash through each level. Speed is the name of the game, and these levels are built for you to run fast. Each of these stages is three times larger than the stages found in past Sega Genesis "Sonic" games, and you'll find an assortment of enemies to fight on each level, ranging from robotic fish to giant gorillas. Rings are scattered everywhere in "Sonic the Hedgehog 3," and collecting 100 rings awards you an extra life. If you get hit, you'll lose all of your rings. It'll be game over if you get hit twice. Hidden throughout each level are secret bonus stages, and you could gain a Chaos Emerald when you complete the stage. Once you have all the Chaos Emeralds, you can change into Super Sonic, granting yourself new abilities."Sonic the Hedgehog 3" plays similar to previous "Sonic" Genesis games. It also possesses an array of new features. Sonic and Tails have all of their moves from "Sonic the Hedgehog 2" along with new interactive powers, including Tails' ability to carry Sonic while flying and to transport the hedgehog to a new location. There are also new items in the game. The duo can pick up shields that absorb one hit from an enemy. These shields have special abilities attached to them, such as the Flame Shield that can turn Sonic into a fireball. He can also safely stand in fire without taking any damage. This title was the first "Sonic the Hedgehog" game to incorporate cutscenes between each zone. This Sega game also features a multiplayer mode called Competition mode, which allows two players to race in five different zones. Each zone has its level design patterned after a zone in the game. The music in this Sega title is excellent and is the work of over seven composers. Michael Jackson even helped to compose some of the music featured in this Sonic game.This title is a historic landmark in this franchise due to its introduction of Knuckles. It also features fun gameplay, a fantastic soundtrack, and jaw-dropping visuals.

    One of Sonic's best games!

    Between being a part of Sonic's 2D glory days and being compatible with Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic 3 is a retro blast that screams quality. For the first time ever, play independently as Tails! More power-ups than ever before! If you love classic Sonic games, 3 is a must.

  • Sonic the Hedgehog 3 - Still better than the plumber dude

    Rebuilding the collection I had in my youth, Sonic is a must have for all Sega Genesis retro fanatics! Sonic 2 is still my favorite of the original games, but 3 is up near the top of the list as well.

  • Pinacle of Sega Genesis Gaming

    A great Sega Genesis title, and one of the most popular in the Sonic Fan community. This series title introduced Knuckles, the Enchidna. The game handles alot like Sonic 2, but with so much more. Old favorites like the Spin Dash and Shields return to the game, but this time, theres a twist. There are 3 different shield types, all of which give Sonic his own additional powers (Like the Bubble Shield allows you to breathe under water, the Lightning Shield magnetically attracts rings and the fire shield allows you to stand in lava and become a living fire ball! Another nice feature of this game, is that if you lock it on to Sonic and Knuckles, can experience the game in it's entirety, as well as play as Knuckles. The sprites themselves have been improved from it's predecessor, ...

  • great things come in threes

    the third sonic game fro the genesis. beautiful sound, easier character control and some new powers come into play. For the first time Miles "Tails" Prower can fly on command!!! by far the easiest of the sonic series for the genesis partually due to the save feature. hook it together with sonic and knuckles(this may take a few tries to work properly) and now you can also play as Knuckles! This is the only game that featured the "super" emeralds that allowed sonic and knuckles to earn a special ability when they transformed into the "Hyper" stage. Also the only game to have a super tails. each of these stages consume two rings a second on the timer so use wisely!!! sonic gets harder to control due to a higher jump and double jump power.oh there are ...

  • The Classic Hedgehog Returns

    Odds are, if you're looking at an auction for Sonic the Hedgehog 3, you already know what a spectacular game it is. The masterminds of the Genesis era at Sega truly outdid themselves with the inner workings of this game. The third of four classic installments, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 brings back all the fun of its predecessors while offering a new save feature for those players who can't sit in front of their television to play this in one go. The game itself takes that lovable hedgehog Sonic through some very elaborate and well-designed stages that incorporate more of a 3D feel in a 2D game. Doctor Robotnik is up to his old tricks again, and it's up to Sonic to save the day once more. The best thing about this game and the Sega Genesis Sonic the Hedgehog series [Sonic ...
