i didn't like Sonic & Knuckles as much as i liked Sonic 3, unless of course you combined them into S3&K then yeah that made it better.

I'm Mainly talking about Sonic 2,

Sonic Advance 2

and Sonic Adventure 2.

I've found about half the sequels to be worse--until recent days where I don't even bother with looking at them. For example, I feel that the Sonic Advance series got worse each time, and that sonic 3 wasn't as good of a game as sonic 2 (sonic 3's level design slowed the action and ruined it for me).
