Sonic Advance 3 is the third game in the Sonic Advance series released for the Game Boy Advance. Unlike the first two games in the series, SA3 features ability to play two characters in a partner setting.

Game Play

The gameplay of this game is similar to that of Knuckles' Chaotix, with its 2 character team-ups and ring-dropping enemies, though the actual ring bands are gone. Like Sonic Advance 2, this game's merit is the subject of a lot of debate. It really comes down to personal taste - this isn't really a bad game, but many people don't like the gameplay.

Abilities with Sonic as a Partner

A free spirited hedgehog that hates evil. He can be short tempered at times, but never turns his back on those in need of help.
