Can you Take all 12 Tasks to…um, Task?
When Sonic 3 is released as standalone on XBOX Live shortly, it will come with it several new achievements to challenge gamers of young and old.
With thanks to Xbox360Achievements.org, we finally know what those achievements are. In all, there are twelve achievements with a possible 200 points to be gained. Most are pretty run of the mill, and sadly, “Get Past that @#$%!! Barrel in Carnival Night Zone” isn’t one of them.
The achievements are:
- Complete the Game (25G) - Finish the game
- Fast Freeze (25G) - Finish Ice Cap Zone
- Complete Chaos (25G) - Obtain all 7 Chaos Emeralds
- Points III (25G) - Score 80,000 Points
- Marble Finished (15G) - Finish Marble Garden Zone
- Wet Feet (15G) - Run across water
- Wed and Wilf (15G) - Finish Hydrocity Zone
- Points II (15G) - Score 40,000 Points
- Chaotic (10G) - Collect a Chaos Emerald
- Halfway There… (10G) - Collect 50 Rings
- Goodie Gumballs (10G) - Collect a blue gumball in the bonus round
- Points I (10G) - Score 20,000 Points
When Sonic 3 is officially released on XBOX Live, we’ll let you know.













I’m tempted to download and play this game for the achievements, but I still own the Genesis version of this game. I hooked it up and played Sonic 2, beating it in one sitting. But seriously, seeing as how I have the original, I don’t really see the point in downloading it again. But it is good to see it on the marketplace!
Start the complaining about no Sonic and Knuckles locked-on now (and likely never will be again!).
SEGA is number one at shitting on their own face.
Those achievements are way too easy. They should make time attack achievements, like beat X level in X minutes/seconds.
Is this a joke? Much too easy.
I refuse to buy this again D:
How many times are you going to release the same game!?
@Kogen:
Yeah, really. The fans can figure out how to lock them and distribute it as a single, ROM, and Sega and the guys working for them can’t even figure that out, so they say. Really, Sonic 3 is only half of a game. Sonic 3 & Knuckles is where it’s at!
It is not that SEGA cannot do it, it is just they will not. They know and have done it plenty of times.
Its my favourite sonic right but damn I am bored of it being rereleased every two minutes and whats worse is it feels like rip off really because really its one half of a much loved game. (even though I prefer sonic 3 alone DONT ASK)
I think the problem people have is Sonic 3 alone lacks features it was meant to have, like bug fixes, Super Tails, Knuckles (he takes different routes, entirely changing levels) and so on. So even if one does not like the SnK levels much, they are still missing out on features that should be there.
It just makes so much more sense to include both instead of hurting their reputation further for the sake of 5 dollars. Just make the lock-on optional so no one whines.
I agree with DoctorEggman, this is way too easy, I’ve already done all these tasks on my Wii (I have this on VC). There should be more challenging stuff like Time Trials… I don’t have a 360, though.
Lemme get some MS Points. Sega had better release this in the next few days or weeks. I fucking want this game on 360.
I really want them to start releasing their old games on PSN. There was talk about them releasing them when the PS3 first launched but then…nothing. Even though I still have the Megadrive Cart, and S & K, and the Mega Collection for PS2, I’d buy this and play through it again if it was on PSN just for the trophies (although these are very easy). It’s my favourite game ever.
@Kogen: I know, I was being sarcastic toward Sega and their lies.
