    Sonic the hedgehog 3 is the best of the 3

    Sonic the hedgehog 3 is the best of the 3. Not only you can play as Sonic but as Tails as well. You get 2x more game play, Tail can fly to places Sonic cant and Sonic and use special attacks when he has 1 of the fore fields on him. The evil villain is his game is a different hedgehog name Knuckles. He is super fast as Sonic and he has the ability to fly. The graphs are great just as in 2 but the bonus levels have improved. The bonus levels have more of a 3d likeness to it. In the bonus levels you are on huge ball with red and blue balls on it, you must change all the blue balls to red to clear the level. The sound is the same as 2 no big different. I would say this is the best in the series, if you don’t count Sonic vs. Knuckles. I am counting it part of the series so that why I am only giving this game a 9.8.
