Awesome! I was just going about to buy Sonic CD on PSN this weekend but if Steam will give it to me why not.

I would advise against buying the Genesis games on Steam. I found there to be a delay in the controls using Sega's Genesis emulator. It was impossible for me to complete the special stages in Sonic 3 and Knuckles because you need very precise button hits. I even hooked up my old Genesis to test this out and compare the controls. There was no delay on the Genesis.

I do not know if Sonic CD, Sonic 4, or any Dreamcast titles have the same problem.

You are right Falcon, tried the first special stage on Sonic 3 and Knuckles and I found a slight delay, especially when the speed increases. Gonna check later using my ps3 controller if the problem persists.

i have sonic 3 and knuckles and i think it works pretty good. of course its been a LONG time since i played sonic 3 on the genesis.....but i do have the sonic collection on the 360 so i could always run a test on there. anyway i was able to beat the special stages with no probs using my logitech controller

Used my ps3 controller and it worked better than with the keyboard. Problem is I had to map the buttons for it to work.

I tried my brother's Wii classic controller, and it is a little better than the keyboard, but still not near as crisp as the original game on a real Genesis system. The controls feel sluggish. It's possible that the issue crops up on only certain computer hardware. I still say buyer beware on the Genesis titles.

This isn't an emulator though. It's a port of the engine and reworked for WS and other changes. I think some Sonic forum member did all the work lol and sega hired em.

Also I bought the collection, I was very dissapointed, they did not even add multiplayer which is why I bought it. The common emulators do a better job and can do multiplier... provided you are very close, on lan or have no jtiter since kailera gets out of sync very easily.

Sweet. Sonic CD. Will avoid Sonic 4 though, heard bad things about it. It's good to see Sega starting to really look out for PC and bring back true classics.

Only download Motionjoy and then follow the instructions. It is quite easy.

I think it doesn't matter if the controller is Sixasis or DS3.
