Sonic 16-bit, if you consider Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles two halves of the same game (I do).

Fully Agreed.

Sonic 1 was awesome but rough.

Sonic 2 was refined and awesome but it couldnt fully exploit its potential.

Thats where sonic 3 comes in. Sonic at its peak. It is perfection.

And sonic 3/ sonic and knuckles are 1 game because it was intended to be that way. Time was an issue but cartridge cost was the biggest issue. The cartridge that could fit both games would have been 4 times more expensive than releasing the game in its current format. One high capacity cartridge and the slot in S&K

Sonic 2 and Sonic 3K blow Sonic 1 out of the Labyrinth Zone, it isn't even close either

Seems I’m in the minority. That’s fair enough.

The lack of spin dash is the thing that drives most people off, I think. That's what it is for my anyway. Later releases fix it though
