    Almost all of you just spammed with angry reviews, the players are complete idiots.
    The collection quite came to me
    At cost price I bought the time spent on the passage, as well as the emotions presented)

    The game is good. I dont say it's perfect because of the bumb DLCs and a pair of bugs like tails AI being worse and some SFX not playing correctly. By the rest, cool gameplay, good extras, and generally a very good experience.

    Sonic Origins is a Great Game. It's packed with fun and is a really fun game to play and enjoy. Sega should however should stop making 2D games to hype up 3D games because it scares me that the 2D game overshadows the strength of 3D games and they are hiding something. Regardless, here is what are the PROS AND CONS of the game.

    I don't know what game y'all played, but I had a blast with this! My only real complaint is in sonic 1, 2, and 3. Their always seems to be a rage-zone. And that's my only complaint, I loved basically everything else about this game.

    Sonic Origins, as its name suggests, brings the Sonic franchise back to its good old days when we had no other concern in the whole world but to fire up our console and have some platformer fun.

    Very few changes were made from their now non-existent previous releases, so it’s high time Sega dusts off some more titles from its ‘90s library. The gorgeous cartoons in Origins give me hope, as Sega seems to be establishing some kind of Classic Sonic universe completely isolated from his modern counterpart. It’s just a shame that it’s a universe consisting of four games once again.

    I know a lot of my problems with Sonic Origins sound like nitpicks, but I adore these games and I want to see them restored and presented with joy and reverence as the masterpieces they are--not tainted with frivolous DLC that should be unlockables and lackluster presentation. Sonic Origins comes close to being the definitive classic Sonic experience, but stumbles just before the finish line.
