It's a brand new game:

A truly prophetic sig...
BTW, Sonic & Knuckles is technically the fourth Sonic game, since it takes place immediately following the events of Sonic 3, and is the fourth Sonic game for the Megadrive/Genesis.

S&K is a standalone game you silly n00b!
Yes, the cartridge did lock on to sonic 2 or 3 cartridges, but all that did was add a new character to the existing games. Playing S&K by itself gave you a whole new game with whole new levels.
Yes, I too was confused when the game first came out, but the video store guy assured me that it can be played without the other games, and it turned out it was true.

yeah it's slower than sonic 4 episode one and you NEED to use tails in most parts like going through a snow wall

Actually it's not. Because of restrictions like time, Sega made S&K into an expansion. Haven't you wondered why you go straight onto S&K levels when playing with Sonic 3, and why Sonic 3 was so short?

The S&K cart I've rented so many years ago was totally playable on its own.
And I never encountered any S&K levels in Sonic 3.
From what I know you insert the S3 cart into the S&K cart to play as Knuckles in S3.
Maybe the Megadrive and Genesis version of S&K are different.

good job with this one

You don't, because Sega didn't have time to put them in Sonic 3, the S&K levels are levels from Sonic 3 that couldn't get into the final cartridge because of time restrictions, hence why it's so short. S&K are those levels, so S&K is Sonic 3 but the levels that couldn't be fitted onto the cartridge.

Why did you feel the need to reply to a niine-month-old topic
How do people keep finding these dead topics to reply to in the first place

No it isn't. Sonic 3 was too big for one cart, so they split it.
They were designed as one game
Here's the rest of my post, which you ignored:
I didn't
"It's not. It's a stand-alone game that finishes the storyline of Sonic 3. Moreover, the "S&K levels in Sonic 3" were just names on the Level Select screen; contrary to what I may have said earlier, they were inaccessible."
