It's coming out for the PS3/360 on February 10

Take a trip back in time with over 40 titles from the SEGA Genesis era, including your Sonic The Hedgehog favorites, for only $29.95! In classic single-player and multiplayer battles, you'll take down a huge variety of enemies, including Sonic's nemesis Dr. Eggman (AKA Dr. Robotnik), shuriken-flinging ninjas, hordes of altered beasts and the world's greatest fighting champions.

Features

  • THE LARGEST COLLECTION OF CLASSIC SEGA TITLES. All the favorites are here including Sonic The Hedgehog, titles from the Phantasy Star series, as well as three titles from the Streets of Rage series, to name a few.
  • UNLOCKABLE CONTENT. Unlock arcade games and interviews with the original game developers as you earn Achievements on the Xbox 360 and Trophies on the PLAYSTATION3.
  • ALL TITLES UPGRADED TO HI-DEF. The classic 2D style never looked so good! Each of the titles has been converted to hi-def (720p) and will be a blast to play using the intuitive controls of the Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION3 systems.
  • MASSIVE MULTIPLAYER OPTIONS. Play these classics together with a friend from the same console at home.

Anyone thinks this is Sega's apology for Sonic Unleashed?

SEGA puts out way too many collections. I'll only get it if Sonic CD is on it.

Sonic CD is the only good Sonic game i've never played. If thats not on it, i'll be upset. I'll still buy it for Sonic 3 & Knuckles (the last Sonic game with zero crap imo) and Street s of Rage 3 though.

They should have switched out Sonic 3D blast with Sonic CD, not because it's a much better game but because the Saturn version of 3D blast is much more enjoyable.

Another Sega collection? Probably won't buy it. Played them all a thousand times before. The only good thing Sega drops every year or two is a retro gaming collection. Sad.

Then there is a little hope then, would be nice to see Knuckles Chaotix as "unlockable" as well.

The only way I'm shelling out $30 for another Sega collection is this:

Remake all the Sonic games in the beautiful Hedgehog engine, and then I'll buy it.

Day one for me. As a Sega/Sonic fan, it's nice to get a lot of the classics on one disc, and not have to bring the Genesis out of the closet to play them. Now if only Sonic CD was on there...:(

That's an awesome deal.

I bet Nintendo won't like it though, it really puts a dent on the Genesis shop channel. :P

Wow... yet another Sega collection. Fantastic... New coat of paint aside, how many times can Sega release the same damned games? Is the anyone that wants these games that doesn't have them yet? Am I really that wrong to say Sega needs to focus a little more on quality new games instead of continually rereleasing the 16 bit classics?

At this point Sega is pretty much the guy at the car wash who was once a highschool star quarterback and doesn't shut up about the good ole days.

I am so glad that Sega is bringing this collection. I got tired of the slow single release (like Streets of Rage 2 and Golden Axe). Beyond Oasis is a great game that I remember playing on my Genesis when I had the Sega Channel. This will be a day one purchse easy. I wonder what the retail price will be

Please reread what I wrote: "90s retro games". The point stands. They are games that were released in the 90s (well, except some late 80s games, but that just makes my point more apparent).

Seeing as how Genesis is one of my favorite systems, I'll probably pick this up day 1. I love the first 3 Sonic games to death. The only Genesis collection I've ever bought was the Sonic one for Xbox last gen. But with games like Ecco the Dolphin 1 / 2, Golden Axe 1 / 2 / 3, Phantasy Star 2 / 3 / 4, Shining Force 1 / 2. Streets Of Rage 1 / 2 / 3, Vector Man 1 / 2, and all the original Sonic games included. There's no way I can miss this. I've only listed my personal favorites too. Half these games I've wanted to buy through XBL or Wii shop, but the only one I did was Streets Of Rage 2. Glad I didn't buy more!
