Sonic's Ultimate Mega Genesis Collection Drive
 

It's pretty much the same stuff that was on the PS2 SEGA Collection, except now they're back in PS3/360 form. You get these horrific 'HD' filters to make the games look like a toilet on your fancy TV. The filters are off by default though, so hurray for things! A handful of games have been thrown into outta space this time, but new ones join in. Including arcade and Master System games! Here is a list in a box!

No idea if Sonic 3 will be able to hook up with Knuckles and have a good time. This collection has been put together by Backbone Entertainment (previous hits include Sonic Rivals and Brooktown High: Senior Year) so we can probably expect some true quality 100% go team. For some reason Australia is getting an exclusive pre-order bonus;

The rest of the world gets to pay less for the actual game. $30 US is pretty good considering they cost about $40,000 each on the Virtual Console. Do you guys think Cloud would win in a fight with a Tonka Truck.

If this isn't gonna put the biggest dent in someone's backlog.

That pre-order gift is awesome though. :mad:

oh, boy, vinyl

at last we can hear the Vectorman soundtrack with all the rich warm ambiance of the original studio sessions

digital audio just destroys so much of the experience

It's actually pretty clever considering most Mega Drive music sounds like it was put together by people scratching records.

It's just missing the free 'cat caught on a fence'.

So there IS proper nearest neighbour scaling? I haven't been keeping up but I was under the impression that the scaling was fudged even if you turn the diarrhea filter off.

I've already ordered this as it happens, mainly so the missus can play Shining Force.

IF ONLY I LIVED IN AUSTRALIA THOUGH I'D GET THAT NEAT RECORD. NOT SURE IF IT WOULD FIT IN MY CD PLAYER MIND YOU.

Yeah, that's an interesting question, as I imagine it's going to be the same deal as the current Sonic/Sonic 2 XBLA ports with their dodgy filter. Unfortunately, even though the filter look arse I found it slightly preferable at times to not having it on. I don't know, this might be one I grab when it drops in price a bit; even though it's value for money in terms of games/£, I've got plenty of other shit to be playing.

Hurp Derp 360 Achivement list.

Looks easy enough. ALSO OH SHIT FANTASY ZONE IN HUGE SIZE 8 TEXT. Obviously Infernal is trying to tell us something.

Great amount of games in the collection. I'm hoping they will be 2P live compatible beyond some BS leaderboards.

Don't count on it, the wording of the PR implies local only.

Doesn't matter that some of these are out on the XBLA already with integrated Live multi features, Sega's just trolling the shit out of us.

Yeah, there's no onrine multiplayer at all.

Backbone Entertainment. :cmb:

Worth it

Ahahaha, man. MASSIVE MULTIPLAYER OPTIONS. local only bitch

Oh well. Who wants to play games with other people anyway. Certainly not Deni.

According to Amazon, the UK version appears not to have embraced the "Sonic" moniker. Plus, it's only £25 so it's looking like quite a bargain compared to the price of XBLA or WiiWare titles.

I'm quite surprised by the achievement list. I was half expecting there to be 200 different 5 point achievements, several difficult ones for each game.

Looking at the achivement list finally got me the name of a game I thought was awesome back in the day but just couldn't remember now. Beyond Oasis. Holy fuck. I am buying this shit.

I'm still pissed that they're releasing this while I still own the 2/3s complete Sega Genesis Collection for the PS2. At least I'm not missing out on Achievements for playing Phantasy Star on that.

What were they scratching them with, wine glasses?

I want to sleep with other people. I want to drink with other people. Other people need to stay the fuck out of my video games.

Other people includes guys, therefore DENI WANTS TO MANSEX.

All guys are other people.

Not all other people are guys.

Please learn logic and stop thinking just because I look like a Bear, that I want to have sex with you people.

(this goes for Ben, Wvlf, Mo0, Skills and all other faggots trying to get on my dick.)

Ew, I wouldn't hit that if you paid me to.

Fat people have standards, too, you know.

What's Skills' excuse?

Phantasy Star IV upon release? $100. Phantasy Star IV with these collections? $30.

Totally worth it. Plus if the game has PSP remote play support, I can be an ever fatter ass and play this laying in bed. I'd gladly buy the collection again (have it for PS2 already) for that purpose.

Deni only wants to have sex with common people.
