Sega Genesis Collection

Thursday, January 31, 2008



From Sega of America, Inc.

The Sega Genesis Collection is a comprehensive collection of the very best games for the Sega Genesis. All the must-have games from this calssic system have been put together on a single disc. Now you can have all the fun and excitement the Genesis had to offer, anywhere you travel! It includes hits like Golden Axe I-III, the original Sonic The Hedgehog, Phantasy Star II, Shinobi: Return of the Ninja Master, Ecco the Dolphin, and much more. The collection also includes glimpses into next-generation titles yet to come from Sega -- plus bonus content like unlockable arcade titles and interviews with original Sega Genesis developers. Multiplayer action via wireless connectivity on the PSP.

This collection also allows multi-player via the PSP's wireless networking option. The original (non-widescreen) video of the video games is kept, and there is an option to use the original video size, fit the video on the screen keeping the aspect ratio, or to stretch the video to fit the entire PSP screen (I think a widescreen version would have been nice for some games like Sonic the Hedgehog, but that's no big deal). Also, the menus are good.

This is great to have in your collection, especially if you are a genesis fan and you upgraded your firmware and can't use homebrew emulators :( The Sonic, Ecco, Golden Axe, and Phantasy Star series alone make this worth the buy. There are also great games I am discovering for the first time, such as comix zone and gain ground. Hours of fun!
