verybadloser Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 i love sonic 1,2,3, even 4.1, but this felt like total crap compared to them, let alone the glitches on the death egg zone with sonic. I really hated having to complete this twice for 200g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bblcreator8790 Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 The problem is that this game was never really meant to stand on its own. Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckles were originally intended to be one longer game. If you play Sonic 3 and Knuckles, then you are playing the game as it was meant to be played. I agree that on its own this game isn't that great and pretty short but as the second half of Sonic 3 this game adds some great levels to the Sonic universe. As for glitches, I'm not sure which ones you're referring to, there are several glitches in the old Sonic games but hardly any that I'd call game-breaking.

verybadloser Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 On the final boss, after i knocked his fingers off, if i rolled to the end of the screen i would fall through solid ground (everytime), also after i hit him twice, he'd shoot his laser and if i jumped too far i would get stuck at the side (no floor but i wouldn't die and couldn't move). these happened everytime i fought the boss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel Alucard Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I haven't heard of anyone else with that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Slayer63 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 How are there glitches? Sonic 1 had so many glitches. Especially the speed run achievement, it was broken because there were so many glitches so you could beat the game way faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixel Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I finished the game today with Knuckles and the second level in the desert was awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrupt. Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I agree with you, as a stand alone game, it is the worst. But as has been said before, it was never meant to be a stand alone title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan264 Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 With sonic the game is ok but with knuckes, well I don't think I've told a video game dude to f!$k off so many times in any other game I've played. I swear he wasn't that bad on sega. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starstrukk X360A Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Am I the only one that enjoyed this to the fullest? I've beaten the game with both characters many times on the original Sega Genesis version and I just zoomed through this. I dunno, maybe it's because it was a childhood game, and those tend to make you look at them positively usually. But I honestly enjoyed working towards every achievement, but it's a million times more fun when played as Knuckles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR. RAiDER 702 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I'll agree with what creator said, being that it's really suppose to be a continuation of Sonic 3, not it's own standalone title (which leads to criticism on it length), so if you look at it from that perspective--- It makes, imo, Sonic 3 & Knuckles the best sonic game fron the classic series (arguable, I know). Also, isn't the lock-on feature avaliable on for Xbox Live? Play it that way instead (if you own both games) Besides the astrocious (possibly, worst in the series?) stage that is Sandopolis Act 2 (I feel sorry for anyone that plays that for the first time) the levels are pretty good and feature awesome tracks. How can you not love Lava Reef's theme?

Cyberfire Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 This has always been my favourite. I think it's because they tried to be a bit different with this one, but the core Sonic template remained intact, they've never quite found the balance since.

Nocuous Penguin Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Sonic & Knuckles is, and always has been, a great 2D Sonic game. Without a doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOXmasler Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 So much hate for this game This is one of my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalsteelix Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 i had this game in the good ol years together with sonic 3 so I've always seen it at once. Together it might be my favorite sonic game of all time, but like many people already said, it wasn't ment to be 2 games but they had to rush it a bit :3 Rushing is never good, just look to sonic 06 ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
