    GRADIUS ORIGINS does what it says on the tin. It allows us to play all the Gradius and Gradius adjacent games in one place, either toughing it out or wimping out with the new features.

    For me, Gradius Originis is a truly spectacular collection , a title that pays homage to one of the most important sagas in the genre with the respect it deserves. If when you saw the game's announcement you thought it would simply be an emulator running different games from the series, you were wrong. This collection will touch the heart of any Gradius fan with tons of visual and audio resources, and if all that wasn't enough, it also includes a new Salamander game as the final ingredient to this exquisite dish. Don't hesitate to board these ships; the journey will be difficult, but truly beautiful.

    Gradius Origins is a phenomenal package that has just about everything you could want from one of these. The games included are incredible, they created a new entry just for the collection, and the additions and inclusions are simply amazing. I had a great time just digging through all the stuff, the only way it could be better is having a documentary built in, sort of like what Digital Eclipse does with their Gold series. This is as close to that standard as far as these collections go. Now I want Konami to do Contra and Castlevania like this one. Definitely recommended if you have any affinity for the series or genre.
