Multiple control schemes makes it even better!

User Rating: 9 | Sonic the Hedgehog 3 GEN
This is possilbly one of the best virtual console games ever put up for donwloads. Sonic is back with addictive gaming and a quest to destroy the evil scientist, Dr. Ivo Robotnik.

Controls: The controls could have been a little bit better, being released on one of SEGA's rival's consoles. It could have used improvement, but they are good, nonetheless. 8.5/10

Story: The story is the same as most Sonic games, other than the Sonic Storybook series. Defeat Robotnik and save the creatures of the planet. 10/10

Difficulty: I've been playing Sonic games for as long as 6 years. The first Sonic game I picked up was Sonic the Hedgehog 2 on my SEGA Genesis. I had already been to the Sonic series, so if you've played Sonic I or II, it shouldn't be REALLY hard. If this is your first time playing this, it's going to be harder than fossilized dog crap. 9/10

Graphics: This game has the best graphical capabilities that the Genesis could handle! And it's in glorious 16-bit! Props to SEGA for making good 2-D games before we could download them! 10/10

Overall I found myself returning to this game to whoop Robotnik time after time for no reason. It's highly addictive and I would reccomend it to anybody. 9/10
