"YouTube artists have taken the FM Synth rhythms of the original Genesis and done representations on what they would sound like on the Super Nintendo hardware. The end result is a distinctly different style, yet it matches the system perfectly. Below are the original and remixed tunes for your listening pleasure:"
"We’re at the stage in the console lifecycle where console makers are trying their darnest to get gamers to buy all sorts of crazy add-ons. If you think that the gaming peripherals madness is bad now, then you surely must have forgotten about Sega during their console days."

Due to budget reasons, the game was split into two and the lock-on features were added to Sonic and Knuckles. When locked together, you got the full game of Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

"While there are a lot of bad sequels out there, we've decided to single out the top five we think are the worst. Just like every list, not everyone will be happy with our choices. 2K Sports fans will no doubt wonder why the list isn't compiled completely of EA Sports' Madden releases which rarely improve.

We run down our top five worst side kicks of all-time. It's not likely that you'll agree with them all, but you're certain to remember how some of these number twos bugged you at some point."
