    An absolute must have for people who liked them back then and if you never actually played them... well, I'll hold back. Just buy this collection.

    20 classic Sonic Team and Sega games perfectly emulated on the Xbox for $20; what's not to like?

    Ahhh, the memories. Anyway, all in all a nice compilation to have, especially if you spend your days on Ebay trying to find these games.

    Despite its exclusions, though, Collection's large selection of titles for $19.99 is a tough thing not to recommend to anyone who calls himself a gamer. Even if a few of the games undeniably suck.

    The clever Comix Zone is a great bonus but the Game Gear titles are primitive and mere curiosities.

    You can't find a better deal than 20 games for 20 dollars. While not every Sonic game is a winner, the majority are. These games, though old, are superior to Sega's more recent 3D Sonic offerings.

    For 20 bucks, this is almost a must-have for the old-school Sega nut inside us all. [Holiday 2004, p.67]

    While Sonic aficionados will be disappointed by the omission of a few notable titles, such as the superlative "Sonic CD," there's a ton of solid Robotnik-thwarting to be had with the Mega Collection Plus.

    If you grew up with these games, they're still a joy to play. New converts t the Sonic fold will get a great introduction to the 'hog's history. [Dec 2004, p.168]

    While not a definitive collection of Sonic memorabilia and games, it is damn close and definitely the best available on any console.

Plus the addition of cool extras and more games makes this my preferred version. I only have one problem with the collection and it's unlocking the games, but it makes up for it by how the games are just super fun.… Full Review »
