The character of Knuckles the Echidna was introduced in Sonic 3, but understood with the Sonic & Knuckles lock-on game that signifies his importance.
Sonic & Knuckles, released for the Sega Genesis, remains a classic that may require some assembly. Take a look back.
If you’re playing this without being locked in with Sonic 3 then you’re doing it wrong.
Video games are awesome. At their very best they can become modern marvels from an artistic standpoint, combining compelling visuals, evocative music and deep narratives into a cohesive package. They are also exceptional from a technical standpoint, being a culmination of thousands of man-hours, compiling abstract code into an cohesive experience that is designed purely to entertain you. Here at Power Up Gaming, we're passionate about our chosen hobby. That's why we felt it was about time to assemble a list of our 100 greatest games as a representation of our favourite experiences in the medium. To do this, we polled all of our staff members, collated the results into a list, and asked our writers to write up the games they were most passionate about. We'll be breaking our list down into four articles of 25 games, so check back every day this week as more of our list will be revealed. Without further ado, here's our picks for 100-75.
So many great games and memories! I've always loved getting to play as Knuckles in the Sonic games (except for the parts where instead of punching things you have to painstakingly hunt out hidden emeralds. Boo.)
Cinco De Mayo not only welcomes in a party holiday, but five new games coming to the Xbox One Backwards compatibility list.
Even if it has been a lot of XBLA titles, you have to give Microsoft credit for the BC efforts.
Absolutely. Completed Alan Wake the other day on bc, and it hold its own against todays AAA titles.
yeeeah. i got alan wake from the qb pre order and started playing through it again. And finally finished witcher 2 last month through it. So far i'm liking the bc stuff. it just sucks i cant play gears 3 horde on it coz of the terrible framerate. but for the most part bc is pretty useful.
Didn't know Phantasy Star 2 was even on the XBox. I know there was an online version, but that was it.
Wasn't StarWars the Force Unleashed 1 and 2 release during the course of this week. These websites need to do a better job with gathering information. In all 7 titles Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2, Dig Dug, Sonic & Knuckles, Phantasy Star 2, Samurai Shodown 2 and Runner2. MS is doing a great job. I may be off but I believe there are 176 titles in all.
Also Lego Star Wars launched on BC...I think that was for Star Wars day but maybe it was already BC?
30 YEARS?! 🥲 I feel old
Sonic and Knuckles…. first game I saw priced at $240NZD. More than double the price of games now.
