Probably the game that most changed my life. I still remember myself playing this game as a child, but only up to marble garden zone, because the Mega Drive I had was broken and would crash once I reached the boss of the zone. And many years later I came back to finish it. And this is my favorite game of all time.

I would say this is one of the best classic sonic games, and one of the best sonic games too! there are only 2 stages which I can think that are not very good. Being Death Egg zone, and Carnival Night zone. But compared to other games, Sonic 3 keeps it's speed and encourages exploring for faster routes, or finding the emeralds.

I finished this game by collecting all master emeralds with all characters, and will never forget the good times I had with this game. It is also the game which sparked my flame to want to create video games and to enjoy many others to come.
