    Fully remastered with a lot of extras, SEGA have achieved their goal of making Sonic Origins the best way to play the classics going forward.

    Sonic Origins is a great example of packing classic games together and improving them for a modern audience. The added mission modes are the stand out, but the games themselves still play just as good as ever, especially with the new Anniversary mode. Pre-order lock out nonsense aside, this is a fantastic way to experience the classics.

    Sonic Origins is that collection of classic games that seemed like you didn't need, but it manages to be necessary for fans of the blue hedgehog. It is the best version of these games that are classics and it is very good that they are still being played. It's not a perfect game: it has problems, and it lacks games. Perhaps one of the most striking flaws is that Sonic 3 does not include its original soundtrack.

    Sonic 1 was a bit rough to get through and while I admire Sonic CD, the time travel mechanic was a bit too much for me when I’m just trying to go fast through levels. At the end of the day, that’s what I got out of Sonic Origins. Fun titles that hold up wrapped around a compilation package that is lacking in some sense and charging for extras that would be free in any other bundle. I can still recommend this one for the die-hard Sonic fans or for people like me that never got to experience these titles back in the day.

    Sonic Origins is a must-have collection for fans. Despite the lack of a few things, SEGA did a good job celebrating one of the greatest icons in videogame history.

    Sonic Origins could be THE Sonic compilation if only it would offer a wider variety of titles. The presentation is good and the new modes will attract even the most seasoned players.

    Sonic Origins looks and sounds great, but doesn’t add extra perks like the ability to rewind or save states that would help lower the difficulty. The ability to play as Sonic, Tails, or Knuckles in each of the games is a nice touch.

    This made me remember why I hated sonic in my youth. Garbage full of glitches, worst platformer I know.
