SideQuesting.com - The ad features the invincibility/Super Sonic music from Sonic the Hedgehog 3, but as you can see, Sonic is clearly not invincible nor is he very super. It's a nice case of grabbing stock media and misunderstanding where to put it.
Today marks Sonic 3’s 30th anniversary, one of the Blue Blur’s most talked about entries among fans.
Sonic 3 & Knuckles is peak 2D Sonic for me. Probably my most played Genesis game.
No, not a divisive game. The visuals, levels, music, controls were all great. Having to buy Sonic & Knuckles wasn't an issue at all, just more awesome gaming made available to me at the time. I lived through that era, and I don't remember anyone complaining that they had to buy another cartridge just to get the complete game, if you enjoyed Sonic games on the Genesis, you were happy to get another one back then.
The only issue with Sonic 3 is that stupid freakin' horrible "BARREL OF DOOM!" all because Sonic Team didn't properly communicate to the player what to do.
I had 1 & 2, I played 3 at someone else's house. When I heard about S3 & Knuckles I assumed it was the same game with just Knuckles added in and thought it was stupid, until I found out a while later it was much more. I wonder how much more they could've put onto the game carts, I know there were cut levels in some of the games.
At the height of the popularity the series enjoyed, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 released in North America on February 2, 1994. Take a look back.
It's been relatively easy to collect for Sega Genesis/Mega Drive because game prices have stayed quite low compared to other retro consoles. But the recent retro explosion is even affecting this market now. Here's a list of Genesis/MD games that you may want to grab before they get any more expensive.
Aww man. I forgot about Boogerman. And the McDonald’s game. Me, my sister, and a lot of my cousins put countless hours into that one.
I have Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Hyperstone Heist, complete. It's awesome and I've beaten it so many times.
Shame he dosen't speak in the ad
Wrong music? I hear different music for a commercial, but not wrong music.
Wrong music? I don't really think they cared. They wanted a Sonic song and they probably wanted one that was faster paced then most because he is running around really quickly and the song they choose to use fits.
Be glad they used a Sonic song at all they could have just easily used some generic sounding cartoon music and made the ad terrible.
Sonic doesn't make sense for an insurance commercial. Now Sweet Tooth, that's someone that can use auto insurance.
%$!@! how is this WRONG. You hear this in sonic 3 when you turn into supersonic or when you get Invincibility, so do some more research! before you post wasteful articles.
