Amazing action game. Great presentation, with sprites that look like watercolored manga illustrations, and amazing orchestral-sounding FM soundtrack. Filled with great boss battles and setpieces you'd see in a Contra game, and a progression from level-to-level that keeps amping up the stakes. Main character is very expressive and fun!
Very good sequel, adds new, very welcome power-ups. Levels up to the later third of the game are very strong, but then they dive down in quality a lot like in Sonic 2 (I do like Death Egg though). The game as a whole is much less concerned with beating levels quickly, levels are longer and a bit more linear. Special Stages (and how to access them) are a tad better than Sonic 1 and 2. Lots of time-wasting though, and lots of fake walls everywhere, tempting you to be overzealous in exploring levels and making the game's pacing incredibly slow. Too many bosses, and not many good ones.
Improves on the original quite a bit, though it still keeps a lot of its failings. It's a very strong sequel until the later third of the game - from Oil Ocean onward it dives down in quality, getting worse as you go along. Unfortunately there's still a lot of collecting Rings still to collect Chaos Emeralds. Very smart, nice new way to get Continues. Super Sonic is a cool addition.
