I always referred to the "insta-shield" as the slash, since it seemed more like a slash they cut through some defences rather then as a defensive move

[@anemiropenguin2241]

i refer to it as spinning slash kick thingy. i just imagine sonics foot turning into a blade and him doing a spinning kick (my subconscious is weird)

[@IanZWhite00]

There’s actually precedent for this, given the “insta-shield” name is a bit of a misnomer. In Japan it’s called the “double spin attack,” or sometimes the “wind attack,” neither of which sound quite as natural but definitely describe the move better [Edit] okay he definitely explains this exact thing at 8:20 so that might’ve just been what you were responding to lol

[@KopperNeoman]

​@@IanZWhite00It DOES protect you from attacks while active. So it's both an insta-shield AND a double spin attack.

[@bazinger1142]

8:44 Fun Fact: In Sonic Generations, you can unlock the insta-sheild as a skill. In the game, it's known as the "Twin Spin Attack" similar to it's Japanese name in Sonic The Hedgehog 3.

[@qbertguy]

Adrian Gauna Yeah, I edited that out of my comment, I Spoke too soon, before he mentioned that.

[@aylo.mp3]

how do i instsll its not working

[@Oysterblade84]

1. Download the rom from Sonic Retro 2. Use the configuration tool known as ''Rom Customiser'' to create your own set of options for the game on the page. 3. After downloading your own version of Sonic 3 complete, extract file to get the bin file inside and then you're done! Simple as 1,2,3.

[@TheLoveMario]

Oh and also, if you enabled the savefile tally counters from the rom customizer but don't see them on the save screen in-game, it's because casual mode is enabled which removes the lives system and instead tallies up how many times you get hit

Sonic 3's sonic sprite is actually my favorite. It's just so much cooler then the first two which make sonic look like a plushy. Also it bridges the gap between sonic classic and sonic adventure because Sonic 3 looks like a more grown up Sonic, and his darker blue matches his colors in the 3D games.

[@Medachod]

He has that rich blue in Sonic 2, though.

[@margarethawihardja3839]

It was amazing to see this for the first time. Realistically, though, unless you like going for high score runs of the game (And who actually does that?), the 9:59 time bonus is pretty underwhelming. Also, this was an amazing video on what S3K Complete is! I've been playing this ROM hack as my main source for S3K for the better part of a year now, and there was a lot that you went over in pretty good detail that I never knew/understood, like the S3K Collection theme changes.

He says that the PC version replaced the MJ music, and now we know the MJ music replaced the PC music.

[@LongSinceDead1]

MJ and his team had likely begun work on the soundtrack months before the prototype. It’s more likely that those prototype songs were created as placeholders while they tried to figure out what to do about the music, considering how sloppy they sound and how unfitting they are stylistically compared to the rest of the soundtrack. And the team clearly didn’t think they were good enough to use in the final game since they went with the MJ tracks anyway

SuperMariofan 1992 It really doesn’t, the prototype tracks are so stylistically different from the rest that it’s clear they were done by different composers. You’re the one who’s kidding yourself

@We Are the Gamers It's not more customizable. It has better graphics, aspect ratio, audio, and the drop dash, but not more than that. The only way that you can make A.I.R better is with mods. If we are talking about the vanilla A.I.R, complete wins.

I've been watching Cybershell ever since I got taken away from my mom and put into foster care. Luckily, I'm back with her now after 5 long years and I come back to these old videos all the time. I literally know every single image and word of these videos because of how much I used to watch them to forget the fact that I was in an uncomfortable environment at the start, but luckily I ended up getting used to it and they were nice to me, but after a while I ended up realizing it wasn't as good as it seemed. I'm like 15 by now and now that I've returned, I feel amazing!

Nice that he added a 2020 edit that gives us a link to Sonic 3 AIR. I always wondered if he were to make a video about AIR if he came back but now I guess he doesn't have to.

[@ultimateknux2402]

Wait, he literally doesn't even need to make a video because AIR has several changes that were also made in Complete so he'd basically be repeating himself if he were to talk about AIR but of course addressing the widescreen and mods.

[@dunk.]

I was just about to comment about that since most people don't check the description

[@blackmagemasher4031]

I remember when I was a kid, I found it amazing and odd that you can move your save from S3 to S3&K but it didn't work in reverse. So if you completed the game on Sonic 3, you could see your save on Sonic 3 & Knuckles. But if you made your save on Sonic 3 & Knuckles, it wouldn't show up in Sonic 3, but you could still use the save slot and it didn't hurt the save in S3&K
