[Official] Sonic & Knuckles - Out Now!


Recommended Posts

I wish they'd release Knuckles Chaotix and Sonic CD on XBLA.

I never got to play either of these games.

Knuckles Chaotix is a good game and like other Sonic games it has great music. Online co-op would be good because of the teamwork in the game.

Just bought Sonic The Hedgehog, Sonic 2 & Sonic 3 from XBL in preparation.

Already have the Genesis collection, shame to have to buy all 3 titles again.

When I was a kid I had Sonic 2 as my first game ever.

I use to have such vivid dreams of me obtaining that green chaos emerald *ah good times*.

I actually owned a 32x but they I never bought Knuckles Chaotix (parents though games were a waste of money, I only had Sonic 2,3 and Knuckles and CD for the PC) had a chance to emulate a 32x and play knuckles chaotix on my computer and it was really one of the most creative and interesting Sonic games I've ever played.

I had a Dreamcast once, but someone stole it from my house ********* took my copy of Sonic Adventure 2 and my VMU in the process. Luckily my beloved Sonic Adventure was still there. I eventually caught the thief but his parents didn't want to give me back my stuff instead they just wrote me a check.

God I miss my dreamcast, that was the only console that bedazzled me in such a way w. its graphics.

Btw I like European Box Art of Sonic 3, it looks allot better than the Genesis version; thanks allot Si for sharing. I had the Genesis R2, so I went and bought a Mega Drive from Japan a few years later came w/ headphone support like yours does.

Dammit Sega what happened.. your heart was filled with such innovation and now those dreams are gone from us. Guys I feel like those days will never return but maybe that's a good thing. I can't blame Yuji Naka for leaving Sonic Team, when Sega left hardware he new he wasn't going to have much freedom for future development.

I hope in a few years Sega comes back to hardware and gets their act together with Sonic, that's my dream.

This was a dev kit for a Dreamcast 2 but it was trashed. Interesting to know Sega didn't want to give it up.

I really believe the reason Sega isn't making stellar games is because they have pride and that pride is something they don't want to put into any other console but their own. I can sympathize.

Remember it releases this Wednesday and the confirmed price is 400 points

I just happen to have 450 points but I only have Sonic 2. I really want to lock on Sonic 3.

I want to fight Neo Metal Sonic on Sky Sanctuary

No achievements for the Hyper emeralds? Competing the game as Hyper Knuckles, Super Tails and Hyper Sonic? Completion of the Doomsday Zone?

Sega has been taken us for a ride as of late.

You might as well just break out your Mega Drive and play it for free ;)

Seriously, and I bought Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection.

Sega you screwed your customer base yet again.. even after dreamcast. I didn't want to admit it but its true, I was always with Sega till the bitter end.

They couldn't put S3&K on DVD.. God dammit Sega wtf.

It's been said before, what would be golden would be a completely new and polished HD version of Sonic3+Knuckles, blasting out at 1080P :D

I would pay $60 for that.

I really would, each zone is amazing in itself from a 16-bit point of view. I can't imagine how remastered 1080p would look like.

It would be awesome if they did that with Sonic Adventure and remaster that in 1080p as well.

Which did you prefer, SA or SA2?

Sonic Adventure.

SA2 was epic in it's own way but in Sonic Adventure the motion Sonic ran in was a complete cinematic experience and really defined the game as a whole. Even by today's standards of Sonic Unleashed I prefer Sonic Adventure's run over it. I loved the story a bit more too, Chaos having to relate to the "lost worlds" it really was a story put together on all sides no matter which character you played through with.

I loved playing as E-102y Gamma his buster rifle really kicked ass! lol

I however did like the Mechs Dr. Robotnik and Tails used (Egg Walker and Cyclone) in SA2 that and some of the last 2 boss fights were really interesting. I like the boss fight Knuckles had in Egypt the one with that big creepy Ghost (reminded me of the ghosts in Sandpolis Zone in S&K).

Yeah I too prefer SA1, just could not get into SA2 at all. With SA1 it was like I couldn't stop playing or put the controller down, but with SA2 it was just dull and felt like a chore to play.

Not to say SA1 was perfect. I hated Big the Cat's section and the end boss was way too easy (N).

I think I'm the other way round, where I preferred the faster action of SA2, and in my opinion it had the better soundtrack too, but overall SA1 had a much better story. The problem with a lot of the more recent games, is its just an excuse to introduce more characters into an already diluted universe.

Got it last night on XBLA.

Able to do Sonic 2 & Knuckles, Sonic 3 & Knuckles & Blue Sphere (also no achievements for these modes tho) in Bonus Content.

Absolutely brilliant stuff, just need Sonic Spinball next! :D
