sonic 3 and knuckles

In unlucky Episode 13 of the Bucket List Gamers the subject of our attention is none other than Sega's iconic mascot Sonic!

In terms of the list we are carefully considering, and ranking Sonic 1 (28), Sonic 2 (14) and Sonic 3 & Knuckles (75)! But we don't stop there, discussing the 3D offerings, the cartoons, the entire Sonic Game Gear library, the Blue Blur's appearances in Nintendo games and why you should never lick a Switch cartridge.

Trust us, it all ties together... sort of. We also talk about the time Tails dies...

Just remember when it comes to Sonic... it's Robotnik, never... and we mean NEVER... Eggman!

Enjoy!
