This disc seems to be based more on Sonic & Knuckles than Sonic 3 (If it contains any Sonic 3 at all!) Could it be a reference to the early version of Sonic 3 being so huge they had to split it into 2 games, and ended up "Locking on" S&K?
Either way, the classic Sonic & Knuckles symbol makes a stylish front and unusually colored stock arts adorn the back over a CG 3D ball effect.
