before i tell you why, i was going to give this 0 stars, but they only go 1-5. this game is very terrible. first of all, have all the original sonic games for the genesis from 1991-1996. i know what they are like, and this is a piece of garbage compared to the original. heres a few reasons why you shouldn't get this:

(referring to sonic & knuckles collection only)

1: its better classic- meaning its better on the old system and all these keys i have to remember is hard and time consuming

2: it performs terrible- the sound is muffled, things are uneven, nothing like the original

3: **no support from expert software (creators of the game)- yup, their experts alright

4: get windows Y2K or lower, xp aint ready- xp users are gonna have a bad time trying to play on it

5: it is way too fast, trust me- you have three seconds at the main menu to pick something before it goes into demo mode. heres the worst part: when youre playing a game, you run so fast, so quick, that when you lose rings, you wont have time to get em back, plus that is hazardous as you may lose at the game

(referring to general package)

6: who wants all those games on 15 different cds?!??

ive said what i think you should know about the game. originally, this page was going to be filled with cursing words, so you can tell, this is garbage DO NOT BUY IT, YOU ARE GETTING ..., NO SUPPORT, NO FUN, NO VALUE.

Overall Fun

The Sonic and Knuckles Collection and Sonic CD are really good themselves, although I did have some trouble with the keyboard controls. My suggestion--I've found these two games work really well with a joystick. Sonic R is a really good 3-D racing game featuring Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, Amy, and five other unlockable characters, all with special abilities. There's even a secret level you can unlock. As far as the other games go, I preferred Sonic CD over the Collection because it's a lot easier to control and moves slowly enough so you can actually see what Sonic is doing. All in all, however, this is a good buy.

Great Games......Easy to Control

These three games (Sonic The Hedgehog 2,Sonic and Knuckles, and Sonic The Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles are one of the coolest games you can get if you don't have a Gaming Console. The Moves are as easy as can be....It took me a little while to master the moves but it wasn't very long. It also has a great selection of the classic Sonic The hedgehog Characters like Sonic (Who's Really Fast), Tails (His Trusty Sidekick who can fly), and Knuckles (He floats and Latches onto walls). In conclusion if youre bored after school and don't have a game console then, play Sonic's Action Pack

tightest games of all time!!!!!!!!!!!!!

these games are sweet. I just beat them all on my console sega genesis and on my pc. I think its better on pc because if u press F9 you can take a picture and look at it in the sonic directory. the controls are a little bit confusing but its pretty easy after a while. I think its good because of sonic 3 and sonic and knuckles the levels are huge and fun and the bosses are the coolest ive ever seen on a sonic game. sonic cd is ok but it is very hard. and I havnt played sonic R yet but im pretty sure that its great. its cool because on sonic 3 and sonic and knuckles you can choose from knuckles,tails, or of course sonic and they all have different story lines(I have beat all of them 100% but no need to brag) So if youre a sonic fan or just getting bored and want a new game to play then this ist the game for you.

Just one word, WOW!

I really enjoyed the Sonic Action Pack, and I beleive old and new fans will also. There was a awesome 3D racing game, Sonic R, for those who love things like N64. There was a cool 3-games-in-one game, Sonic and Nuckles Collection, for those who want some good fun. There was also a nice game, Sonic CD, for those who always liked the old Sonic games. The music in the Sonic Action Pack was great, and 2-out-of-3 of the games were multi-player. In all, I think this would be a great game Pack for any gamer who wants to have fun.

It actually has five games, not three!

With this Sonic Action Pack you get Sonic CD, Sonic R, and Sonic and Knuckles Collection. The S&K Collection has three games.
In Sonic CD you have to save Amy from the evil Dr. Robotnik. Try to stop him in this time traveling adventure.
In Sonic R you can race with many Sonic characters. You start out with Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy. Once you get 1st place on all the tracks you unlock Dr. Robotnik. Get all seven Chaos Emeralds to get a certain gold colored emerald charged hedgehog. You can also get five coins in each level for secret characters. You get Metal Sonic from Sonic CD, Egg Robo from Sonic and Knuckles, and two characters from this game: Metal Knuckles and a doll version of Tails. You must place first and get all five coins in each level to challenge the secret character of that level.
Finally in the S&K Collection you can play Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles, and Sonic 3 and Knuckles. In Sonic 3 you can play as Sonic, Tails, and Sonic & Tails. You have to go through six levels and collect seven Chaos Emeralds to become Super Sonic. In Sonic and Knuckles you can play as Sonic or Knuckles. Tails wasn't in this game. As Sonic play through at least seven levels unless you get the Chaos Emeralds you get a bonus level. As Knuckles play through six levels.
In S3&K you can play as Sonic, Tails, Sonic & Tails, or Knuckles. As Sonic, or Sonic & Tails play through Sonic 3 through Sonic & Knuckles. That's 14 levels(if you got the emeralds) as Tails alone you only 13 levels. As Knuckles you can play through Sonic 3's levels and S&K's levels. That's 12 levels. The best part about this game is the emeralds. You can get the seven Chaos Emeralds for Super Sonic and Super Knuckles(Tails doesn't get a super form with Chaos Emeralds.) Then when you get to the S&K part of the game you can collect Super Emeralds! With all Super Emeralds you can be HyperSonic and HyperKnuckles. Tails even gets a Super form!

Cool!

I really enjoyed playing these really cool sonic games, there the best. I bought the sonic's action pack and played all the three games- sonic3 and knuckles, sonic R, and also sonic cd. And I have to tell you if you're really a sonic fan or just trying to look for great game you'll like to play these really exciting sonic games. The graphics are good everything is good. Just think of it 2 of these 3 games are multiplayer games which means you can play with other people online.
