Completed: Sonic 3

Decided to buy Sonic Origins Plus and finally beat Sonic 3 for the first time ever. This game isn't very long so not sure how I have never done this before but here we are. I have to say I prefer platforming in Mario compared to Sonic games but Sonic 3 is still a lot of fun and is one of the best looking games on the Genesis and still looks great today. The game tends to bog down a bit though when you aren't speeding through it and you slowly realize your biggest enemies are platforms that float up and down that can squish you and springs that you run into that send you flying backwards. Some of the modernizations in the Origins version are very welcome too, like being able to retry bonus stages by paying a coin for it. Onto completing Sonic & Knuckles now!

Liked: The changing environments of levels and the amount of boss fights
Loved: Collecting all the Chaos Emeralds and becoming Super Sonic for the first time ever
WTF: The amount of times you die being squished by some platform while you're flying through a level
