(this metaphor was more or less stolen from the review channel Gigaboots in their own review of the Resident Evil 4 remake, but said metaphor equally applies here)

So, there's an old sketch comedy by Bob Odenkirk and David Cross called Mr. Show. And in one of the sketches, Bob Odenkirk plays a man doing a lie detector test. The people doing the test ask him all sorts of outlandish questions, all of which he truthfully and nonchalantly answers "Yes," to.

One of the interviewers asks him if he'd done crack before, and he once again says "Yes." Then another person asks him how crack felt, and he goes, almost off-handedly as if he were asked the most obvious question in the world:

"Yeah it's great, it's crack."

All of which is to say, going back to the context of this game and my review of it: Yeah it's great, it's Sonic 3 and Knuckles.
