Sonic 3D - Flickies' Island (Blast) - Boss Run - Part 1

[teamsk24]

gene gadget zone looked hard

[kawrght]

you gotta praise a few things about this game- the music was freakin awesome, the boss battles where VERY HARD and very unique and very cool! and its cool to see the actual damage you do to botnik this time

[TheFunkyBones]

Why is his moustache black?

[robengland1998]

anyone notice the gun on the rusty ruin boss is in a very special place?

[gamegod9000]

They had to waste such a good game with moderately annoying but at least cool physics, by adding Flickies and shit gameplay objective. Damn, SEGA, you can do better than this. I know you can.

[RunningWildVidya]

The only good thing about this game - boss music.

[Shini9amiMugen]

5/5 I love how you not only beat each boss without damage but also in under a minute! (not including ones u needed to wait before u could attack)

Mad Skills Bro c(^.^)b

[CalgorGrim]

There is a potential exploit on the third part of Panic Puppet Zone (At least I think it is) Instead of going from one side to the other you were able to just stand under the light on the right side and just hit that instead of the left one. Worked on a mega drive...

[Diamond44444444]

I hate the Volcano valley boss..... It took me two continues before I finally beat it....

[epicloquendero]

@Diamond44444444 I know that feel bro... I hate that boss.

[WTGDMan1986]

I could NEVER figure this game out Christmas 1996 to spring 1997 around the ages of 10-11...in matter of fact, ALL 3-D Sonic games. In fact, I could only beat *1* boss...the first one. Man, this game was my Sonic game downfall growing up... :(

[crazyrobloxiansfan]

dont like this game,but i do like how his machine shows that it has been damaged

[itchytastyurr]

i never completed this- it looked horrible to me, the checker theme just looks gross! is still impressive though- i mean there is more than eight ways of directional movement and PRE-rendered sprites.

[Ampharos95]

I actually liked this game.

[gamegod9000]

Do a Sonic Labyrinth boss run!

For all I care, I might even PAY you to do such a task.

[drod2003]

One of them are hard

[CaptainOvide]

Way to Rust up Robotnik!

[SuperAwesomeTiago]

@IggyKoopa6 This was before you kids started caring about graphics and before gameplay (which is the most important thing in any game) got forgotten.

[HoneycombAgent]

Did you try for all emeralds?

I almost did. I had Sonic Mega Collection for Gamecube.

[Y2JUzumaki]

I can't remember why this game used to fill me with rage when I was younger.

*sees Volcano Valley boss*

O_o FUCKING LAVA!!!!!

[tochbomb1]

EWWW, at the second boss, eggman made a machine with a cannon as it's dick :-p

[ShaunK1988]

I fucking hated the Spring Stadium Zone. I could never tell how far away Robotnik really was because I couldn't see his shadow!

[brxxx3]

the rusty ruin zone boss music is the best

[3DDCaptinJ]

A flicky? Do they still make those?

[1dra7]

@IggyKoopa6 graphics.

[FobbiesAreOwnage]

@tehmclovinshow LOL same here! xD

[funkygamecritic]

at spring zone you were jumping on some sort of holes my question is are spikes in these holes p.s my key board sucks so i cant do a question mark : D

[Tuano55]

What boss is more difficult for you in this game?

[DeoBrando9001]

snowman bombs.

terrifing

[Scouter9001]

i like this game

[robotnikkkk]

ANND PASSING WITH KEYPAD IS MUCH MORE DIFFICULT%)

[robotnikkkk]

THERE'RE ONES OF MY FAVORITE BOSSSES HEHEHE ESPECIALLY BOSS OF VOLCANO VALLEY HEHEHE BUT I NEED GAMEPAD FROM SEGA AND SEGA'S BROKEN AND SSOOOO I COULD PASS ALL BOSSES WITH NO HIT OR I STARTED GETTING MORE HITS AND DIED %)

[mariodude8989211]

1:39 I HATE THIS BOSS I HATE THIS BOSS I HATE THIS BOSS I HATE THIS BOSS

[TehMclovinShow]

I kept thinking through each battle "Just pick up a damn ring! You're scaring me!"

[KaosuKaiari]

Yes, the game sucked. At least its OST made up for it... It had fairly good music to me.

[JaxComixProductions]

Makes me wonder where Robotnik gets all his metal and machinary from.

[17FHPires]

@JaxComixProductions From ACME loooooool :P

[joc95]

the game that started all the bad sonic games today........

[ProfMike789]

@joc95 Well, SA2B was awesome and SA was pretty good.

[TailsFiraga]

I'm horrible at this game. I got to Zone 3 and couldn't find the last damn Flicky in Act 2. I decided to have dinner and turn the game off at that point.

[Charleyx10]

This game sucks. Should call it Sonic 2D Ass

[MilesDude32]

...you hate this game?

I found it rather enjoyable, to the point where I had kinda mastered it at the age of 6.

Nice job not getting hit.

[thesonicfan265]

You can even go to the spike when your in the Gene Gadget boss.

[thesonicfan265]

Ace when you finshed volcano valley boss you can even go in the lava

[dp0014]

if you look closely the diamond dust zone boss looks like metroolplis zones boss sonic 2

[reaperdeth56]

i hated this game -_- ugh shitty gameplay horrid controls, graphics arent that important to me but still and it seems like every sonic game that isnt a 2d side scroller is complete bullshit, im pretty excited for the new one though its supposed to go back to the roots of sonic =]

[dorkchop2007]

Some of the best music was in this game.

[MCSuire]

All things concerned, you kick ass at these games.

[MegaBuddytube]

How do you get the chaos emeralds cause i don't know how.

[DoomedDuckBabyMario]

the controls make this game hard to play.

especially bosses cuz your looking at the game from a angle making perfect hitting on bosses hard.

in this case the rusty ruin boss suffers heavily from the camera angle and controls.

by the way ACEspark did you use sonic mega collection plus PC to record this?

the jumping sound sounds different from the original geneses game.

[GAF1987]

This game is a classic. Its a shame you couldn't save progress, because I thought it was really long.

[pizzaguy24]

Best way to describe this is Sonic Marble Madness

[azcardinalsfan100]

whats the hardest boss in this game?

[SuperShadow1121]

Hey Ace you must have sonic mega collection, right?

[Sonicnathan1]

I don't know why everyone hates this game. I had a lot of fun with it

[mwhighlander]

hey, U had this game, got all emralds but could never be super sonic... what gives?

[gamegod9000]

The bosses in this game look alot more fun than the game itself.

[vangeurRS]

When you do all boss, Is it your first time you do it, Or is like your 100th time ?, Reply please :)

[exoneuk]

*SIGH* The intro to this game makes me weep.

[dbzfunimation007]

i really hate sonic 3d blast but i love the boss battle music.

[BomazXD]

lol second boss look camp with those paws XD

[pingasluigi25]

Hey Ace, how hard was it to do the volcano valley boss without being hit?

[ACESpark]

@pingasluigi25 Fairly. The slippery controls do not help matters.

[thecheatlord999]

@ACESpark I thaught boss 3 was the hardest because of that stupid 2.5D prospective

[shalpp]

I just played through the game yesterday, and I managed to beat that boss without getting hit fairly easily. You just gotta time the jumps to be able to get over the flame

[SuperJJsmom]

@ACESpark what is the hardest bosses?

[thecommentar1]

@SuperJJsmom Hardest sonic boss ever created is the final boss to sonic 2 GAME GEAR that thing is just... indescribably hard

[superRsclub]

@ACESpark how do you get to the boss batle fast?

[teamsk24]

@ACESpark was this on an emulator?

[MajBlood]

@pingasluigi25 You get used to it. I find the pipe on the top right is easier to run across.

[murryduck]

Well the gameplay may have been f***ed up a bit, but at least the music kicked ass

[Segaman19]

The thing I despise about this game is that bloody red Flicky!!!! It gives you a headache, especially if you get hit before the conveyor belt in Panic-Puppet's first act!!

[BassDS1990]

Same here. one of my favorites.

[LethalMezzle]

Eurgh. I hate the Volcano Valley boss fight, mainly cause the shitty camera angle and controls mean I keep missing the pipe.

Robotnik doesn't really think through his bosses, though, does he?

[bubblesishot46853]

music is still cool

[cargochaos]

this game's boss themes are amazing

[gamealogic]

i still have sonic 3d blast on saga geneses

[Thetruehypersonic]

spelt genesis

[gamealogic]

thanks :)

[samandmrcheese]

This is one of my favorite Sonic games.

[samandmrcheese]

A little hard but I still like it.

[darkbrother176]

Oh how this game brings back good memorys.P.S The second Boss is my fav in the game.

[edsandsonicatolympic]

Do you know a code so I can do a boss run on Sonic 2 without playing the levels.

[ACESpark]

You can't. The bosses are attached to the end of the stages.

The stage select code can be found on any cheat website such as Gamefaqs.

[OverruledDood]

@edsandsonicatolympic debug mode and maps my friend

[WindFanzerD]

Honestly, the controls ARE slippery and it is difficult to properly move Sonic where you want to.

[stevemcblark]

@marioandluigi10 you have no idea lol

[MMZ4321]

Personally, I prefer the Sega Saturn version of this game, and I don't even own this game.

[Corad4]

I love the 2nd boss theme o.o

[edsandsonicatolympic]

The first time I made it to the end I had all the emeralds, but couldn't kill eggman and his stupid machine. They're all easy exept 5, 7, and 8. And I never thought of killing eggman (boss #3) that way.

[MajBlood]

While Sonic 3D Blast is a slow mess, it has excellent music, great graphics, and superb bosses. It does have a place in Sonic history.

[shadowcast24]

among all the sonic games, i think this one had the best boss music accept for the biolizard in SA2, that song was just epic lol

[idmariomaster]

when I was five this was the only sonic game I liked and I STILL like it!

[sengfar964]

sonic 3d blast: flickies island??? i have never seen that, just sonic 3d blast

[superbloke876]

Flickies Island is a European name for Sonic here. Sonic 3D Flikies Island for PAL Megadrive and Sega Saturn.

You can also find one in US and CA for Genesis or Saturn too but yea Sonic 3D Blast is US name

[poopskinTheLiar]

(Secret: the bonus stage theme is from Super Fantasy Zone. BTW, you should do boss runs of Fantasy Zone sometime.)

[SQUIZZLER24]

hooray for early 3D

[TheReporterDude]

the graphics in this game sucked ass but the game was ok though

[DoitForTheLolz1]

i couldn't beat the volcano valley zone boss because i was to eager and just kept falling into the lava to land some extra hits on him

[popolynn2]

noob (i didn't know how to kill the last bass lol)

[Binkysuperstar]

I got it! I know why you hate this game. The bad angle the just don't work!

[Nintendofreak526]

aw man, this was one of my favorite games! It was a challenge. BTW, I have the CD version of this game...and the music and sound effects sound alot better...the boss music was the best. X)

[themanwithnonose]

pisses me off they couldn't have released sonic x, but this game is pretty underrated in my opinion

[littlebigman919]

I rememver playing this as a kid lol i was scared of that spiky thing from the first boss... oh the memories...

[t7clough]

come ace this isnt that bad on saturn the music cool and controls are better on geneis its full of fail the music kinda sux and the controls are so slippy but on staurn its underrated

[kainswor9170]

this was the the only sonic game i didnt beat for genesis. simply because after the first level i hated it. really annoying.

[Darkreaper1982]

I absolutely hated this game! It just seemed to drag on and on and on. Stopped playing after beating the Volcano Valley boss!

[Monotonous25]

Absolutely hated the Volcano Valley level as a whole (because for some reason I would always get a headache playing through it) and especially Robotnik for that level. The perspective of where I would stand would screw me up and I'd fall in the lava plus the flame jet didn't help. Anyway love the boss music though, especially the even level Dr. Robotnik's. Nice speed run :)

[sevigu]

Bonjour

[GaiaX5]

Fun little fact: If you listen to the Sonic X fight theme in the show, and is in a boss fight in Sonic 3D at the same time, they are similar.

[Pikminion]

I dont see the video response? Is it there? or am i just uber fail? im already pretty fail :P

[ACESpark]

Bragging on Youtube gets you nowhere, because the personal whose videos you're commenting on honestly doesn't give a toss.

It's probably easy to beat the bosses quicker than in these videos - but can you do it without taking damage at the same time? The latter is kind of the point of these videos, most people rely on rings to beat these bosses and I simply wanted more of a challenge.

[Phernanthus]

@ACESpark

[lintpit1]

music similarities

sonic 360 blast: boss theme 1

kirby and the amazing mirror: boss battle

don't belive me? compare them for yourself!

[jaysds123]

best sega games: all the sonic games including knuckles

golen ax 1 and 2. 3 was kinda messed up lol

streets of rage all of them

was bahamut on the genises??? cause that game is awesome!

[teamdarkrevolution]

Only the saturn version of this game was good, the genesis was the worst

[NickBush24]

Volcano Valley has to be the most aggravating boss ever :l

[tekkenforever82]

TOP 5 GENESIS SONICS.

5-3D-Blast

4-Sonic 3

3-Sonic 2

2-Sonic & Knuckles

1-Sonic,Tails & Knuckles.(S3& KNUCKLES)

[awesomecdiperson]

The Saturn version is better

[Neutralbullenfogel]

You make it look easy but you really must've put some time into this. Actually being able to control Sonic in this game is a feat in and of itself. Great job!

[RollerMew]

I got this game on PC!!

[MarioNintendoh]

I think on PC it was awesome, personally!

[gameguy09]

you shoulda done the saturn version cause that games music is WAY better!

[wiishadow4]

worst intro ever. bad quality. blue is on sonic's eyes. the sky is bad. there is no detail.

why even try to make perfect 3d on a 16 bit console. watch the saturn version instead.

[DarkSoftStudios]

Dude, it's the Mega Drive you can't expect it to look fantastic.

They were just trying to get the most out of the hardware as they could.

Also that's like saying "Why did Rare bother rendering Donkey Kong Country on SLI work stations?"

[wiishadow4]

hmmm. you know, you are right. but i have donkey kong, and it looks way better.

[KrazyScruffy9001]

Donkey Kong Country?

That was on a graphically superior console (The SNES). This and Vectorman 1 + 2 were state of the art on the Genesis.

[myrio007]

If only there weren't those birds, but no, player must search the whole stage, kill all damn enemies, collect all bloody birds, and hope he will not get hit, becouse he will hve to collect those bloody,bloody,BLOODY birds, who runs away of Sonic without a reason. Except those [bleep!] birds it weren,t that bad game, but sadly birds are there.

[peterh4u]

This game is anything but a blast

[Dennoman2007]

Akh... terrible game. Great graphics for the time, but that's really all it has going for it.

[KirbyY15]

every second boss theme is awesomenes

[megawillmonds]

i have one: when sonic is running in the intro it looks like he's crying lol

[onlybreakbeats]

The second boss theme are great!

[xa30standard99]

well you do have to agree that the bos musics pretty cool

[demonicanthonyalbert]

I LOVE THIS GAME!!

[antzindahizhowz62]

dude...... how?

[drewski4u]

Yeah, but what's different is that the game gear version let's go to different places with different bosses with a different boss theme! Also, it let's u play as Knuckles!

[drewski4u]

Do Sonic Blast boss run, alright?

[KDavisJr86]

This is a boss run on SOnic 3d blast

[PhantomBrave7]

I really enjoyed this game as a kid. Can't even remember the flicky's nor can I understand the hatred for a perfectly good game.

[ReloadPsi]

That intro movie... is that an FMV? On the Mega Drive?

Yowza.

[4methyst]

FMV?

It's part of the intro, on the megadrive.

[ReloadPsi]

I know that. I'm just asking if it's an FMV running on Mega Drive hardware. It looks like one... and when I look back, that's kind of impressive in my book.

[4methyst]

Ah right, ok. Yeah.

[Desolator1]

oh man the memories, thx for uploading!

[Urdeadflimsreturns]

Those dammed flickeys!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this game should have not been this way heres hopeing that sega remakes this one day without those damm flickeys.....

also the p.c version is a bit better more challengeing bonus stages on that

[ZeroSeven]

Actually, there is a hacked rom that removes the flickies, it's on hacktube I believe

[Shadow772craig]

Funny you should say that, someone hacked the game to cut the flickies out.

[BioGood]

This is actually one of my favorite sonic, what do people hate about it?

[courthousedoc]

this is my all time fave way better than 2d

[rexty18]

i remeber this when i was young i dont know how but i think i pushed all the buttoms and i had access to all the levels was that a glicth or somthing

[countsmegula]

Never Mind, I found a copy of it

[megaman845]

What was the first flicky game called?

[miiwii93]

Flicky

[F2bnp]

This game is way better than the recent shit Sonic games.

Sonic 06 and such.

[Firionmasa]

It's true. Search the hack section of Sonic Retro. Makes the game much better now that I dont have to spend five minutes looking for one damn Flicky.

[countsmegula]

Wow... Can I have a copy?

[hiitathefirecharmer7]

this is my least fav sonic game. they should've stuck with 2d...

[countsmegula]

This game would be so much better if the flickies weren't in it!!! >:(

[syketo]

Least Favorite Sonic Game..........................­I wasted so much time on it! However when I was little I hit the genesis with this game in and it triggered Stage Select LMAO

[robloxandpikminfan]

oooOOOoooOOOoooOOOooo

uhg.....

[superarticulation]

You are using 192000Hz sampling rate

[videogamenerd1991]

EXPLODING SNOWMEN!!!ftw

[Tony2496]

Love this game especially the music and bosses. The game is very easy except later Robotnik machines but still not very hard. You did a good job of taking care of Robotnik.

[evilsoshi]

this game is easy it was fun the first time but i got confused b the control but now i hate it

[kirbyboy595]

lol heat seaking fire??

that makes no sense

good job

i always die on 3rd phase of panic puppet

[dorkchop2007]

Gotta give the music credit.
