>>12124064Launch Base is the only reason to play standalone Sonic 3, and you have Complete, AIR and Origins to rectify that.If you didn't play Sonic 3 standalone and then lock-on your continued save file through Sonic & Knuckles, you didn't actually beat the gamw.

>>12124334I beat S3 on its own, S&K on its own, S3&K with beating S3 first and then locking it onto K later, and beaten all in one as S3&K.
if you haven't beaten s1, s2, s3, s3&k, and s&k with all emeralds as every character then you need to shut the fuck up about sonic

>>12124194schizos usually get banned pretty quickly from communities where they have to tell people who they are before posing.
You really put the cat inside the pigeons with that statement.
>>12124064I love 3 standalone the most. Growing up I only had standalone K for the longest time. For me even as a kid K sucked compared to S2. Standalone 3 is definitely GOAT. Every level is pretty dang fun. 2 might be better, but 3 is the most fun for me.

Autism thread.
>>12124064there is LITERALLY no reason to play S&K separate from 3&K unless you're an ultra autist that hates S3 for some reason. however there IS reason to play S3 separate from S&K due to the different music and different final boss (there may be a special stage that's only in 3 too? can't remember, or maybe it's that the jumping orb one is not in 3 which is fine because that one blows ass).
>>12127932You get the Knuckles intro and a unique title screen which you can feast your eyes on in all of less than a minute of upon booting up.
I played S&K on it's own for the hell of it before. Pretty funny that you can play the 2nd half of the game without playing the 1st.Makes me wonder if there are people out there who played the 2nd half of Golden Sun (Lost Age) before the first, i'd imagine they were confused as fuck as to what the hell was going on.
>>12127932There's no meaning to Knuckles' story in 3&K.Also, S&K has the no save feature which makes it more of a commitment challenge.
>>12124064I am not one of those. I got S&K on launch but never owned S3 until much later, and I prefer S3&K.S3 standalone is best of all, however.
>>12128178Rastafari was a better bame than Knuckles. Also fucshia was more iconic than red.
Which is funny, because S&K by itself is definitely better than S3 by itself.
>>12124064i grew up with mega collection and only played sonic 3 and sonic & knuckles standalone because i didnt know about s3k
>>12128109there is no "meaning" to knuckles' story at all. even the main story has less meaning than its source material (castle in the sky)
>>12128109>There's no meaning to Knuckles' story in 3&K.Knuckles "story" is intended as an epilogue that follows the events of a Sonic/Tails playthrough. That's why certain backgrounds are slightly different, like Angel Island only having clouds and sky in its background because the island is floating again, and Launch Base having no Death Egg (as it was already launched and destroyed) and being mostly drained of water (iirc).
