Secret Short Review 004- Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection

SONIC'S ULTIMATE GENESIS COLLECTION 
+ Great compilation of older classics  
+ Fantastic Price Point.
+ All of the ports are exact copies of their older selves...  
- ...for better or worse. Most glitches and such are fully intact. 
- Some of the game choices are a bit odd... do people actually remember Decap Attack or E-SWAT? 
 
Ah, the 16-bit era. I admit, my childhood wasn't exactly filled with the typical SEGA vs. Nintendo console war that people have experienced, as we were a family that had both systems in the house. Which is good, because as a kid I was able to experience games in an unbiased manner.  
 
However, like I said, there were those who didn't have both. And I'd honestly recommend this game to those of either crowd. For the SNES Crowd, this is a great experience to play games you never could. And for you on Team Genesis? Well this is still a great experience, as you can re-experience games you've played as well as some you probably haven't. (Seriously. Decap Attack.)  
 
Mildly recommended.

My Genesis gaming was set to Sonic 1 and 2, MIchael Jackson's Moonwalker s...

Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection(Xbox 360) by mikeinsc on March 12, 2010
 This game is a near-direct port of the PSP collection last year, except with a LOT more games and a surprising level of extras. This is, quite possibly, the single best collection of old games I've ever had the joy of playing. It's always easy to forget just how amazing some of the Genesis titles were. Visually, it won't blow minds, but some of the games are just much better than they have any right to appear on the somewhat under-powered console. Vectorman is still great to look at and ...
