I question the sanity of anybody who finds Marble Garden Zone the least bit enjoyable. So I for one would dispel the myth that its terrible, even though I know it will get a hammering on the poll. The graphics are there to be purred over, the soundtrack is very exciting, the speed is unreal, I don't know how a 16bit console handled the pace and the innovation is utterly delightful.Īnd back to the main point, I think Marble Garden represents all of this, the music is utterly great, the stage is warped (and great) the little innovations are fun and the boss is really cool also. The level design is so crazy, and sometimes damn right confusing but it just is an awesome game.
Now I still believe Sonic 3 to be the weakest link in the chain (discounting 3d a totally different model and game), but it certainly has its place in the series. I hadn't played it in a while but I was long after forgetting just how fantastic Sonic 3 is (being the first 6 zones of the duo). Now as recently as last night, I began on a quest to finish sonic 3 & Knuckles again, the holy grail of gaming in my opinion.
Just reading through the forums over the last year or so everytime a thread seems to stumle across Sonic 3 invariably Marble Garden Zone will be mentioned and then swiftly condemned, the most recent example of this is the Sonic 1 best zone thread, the Ten games you should not own thread and The best games of 1991.
