[Suikoguy]

thats pretty cool, perhaps in the future they will put more time into the ps2 games *coughsonicheroes*.

 

[goodcow]

Ordered.

 

[Defensor]

Not bad. I haven't bought a Sonic game since Sonic 2 on the Genesis.

You blow.

You've been seriously missing out.

 

[Wario64]

I've only bought one Sonic game, and that's only because it was a launch title for the Dreamcast

Now you have been missing out.

 

[Wario64]

On a crappy series, yes

 

[jarrod]

Depending on the "Plus" I might buy this.

 

[neptunes]

sonic 2 was hard.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

That seals the deal for me, Im in.

 

[Ranger X]

Well the last Sonic games i bought was Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckles. No Sonic after those were worth my money...

I'm gonna buy this collection right away if there's Sonic CD on it though. Sonic CD = a hell of a game.

 

[belgurdo]

On a crappy series, yes

I miss rolleyes

 

[FortNinety]

If we do get Sonic CD, I wonder what music we'll get.

For the record, I enjoyed both American and Japanese flavors. Each had their strengths. Yes... even the much maligned American one.

 

[HAOHMARU]

The Sonic games were the best platformers of the 16-bit era. I liked the Sonic Adventure games too...1 more than 2 though. I haven't really gotten into Heroes...just isn't my style.

I already have Sonic Mega Collection on the GC...if they included Sonic CD on this one I might pick it up. $20 isn't that bad.

 

[neptunes]

I miss rolleyes

your're in luck

[SolidSnakex]

Do we know anything else about the 2 extra games? I think it was Kobun that said at E3 a Sega rep told him the 2 extra games would be the 2 funnest games on the disk.

We know nothing. I'm personally expecting it to be nothing more than the Game Gear games included with Sonic Adventure DX, but I'm hoping to see Sonic CD.

 

[Gattsu25]

if they include Sonic CD i'll definately get it

 

[AniHawk]

Me too, but I would have liked a Sonic Collection 2. Knuckles Chaotix, Sonic CD, Sonic the Fighters, Sonic R, Segasonic the Hedgehog, and Sonic Jam (I know it's a compilation in and of itself, but people love it, and I haven't played it). I'd've paid $49.99 for that..

 

[FortNinety]

I want to an arcade perfect Sonic the Fighter real bad...

 

[crawlingpeter]

if sonic cd is included, then ill put the cube version up on the auction block and pick this one up instead.

 

[Link316]

I want to an arcade perfect Sonic the Fighter real bad...

never played it, only time I ever saw it was in that Sega Arcade in London, by any chance does it play like VF?

Well it's by Am2, if that mean anything. Just think of a really super simple Fighting Vipers experience.

 

[cvxfreak]

Nice, I'll have to buy this in November.

 

[MoxManiac]

Cool price, i'll definitely get this.

I haven't enjoyed a Sonic game since the Genesis/Sega CD days...talk about a franchise going in the shitter. Oh well..

 

[Hellraizah]

I can't wait to know what the Plus is all about. Sonic CD ? Sold.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

I want to an arcade perfect Sonic the Fighter real bad...

Definitely. I haven't played this in a loooong time.

 

[Late Stage Marxist]

If it only had the first two Genesis Sonics it wouldn't affect the value of the collection at all.

 

[Naked Snake]

I bought the Gamecube version only a month ago, the "Plus" has to be REALLY good (ex: Sonic CD) to make me get this one.

 

[BuddyC]

Yea. Unless they include arcade ports, I probably won't be picking this up - I've already got all the games for the Genesis/32X/Sega CD in addition to my Gamecube copy (sweet Ristar).

 

[jarrod]

Sonic CD and Knuckles Chaotix are the only games that would really make sense in a Mega Collection.

Quick sonic related question for those who've played SA or SDX:

Is Sonic DX worth picking up if I barely played Sonic Adventure (didnt own it), and only really enjoyed the Sonic only levels in SA2? I dont know much about SA except for the beack level. I can get the game for $10, but I don't wanna waste my time if it sucks.

Depends. SA2 had levels that were more focused on rating and doing things with style. SA1 is shallower in this respect. But I think SA1 is a more well-rounded game, with more diversity and more fun overall.

The DX in SA1 is a bit of a mixed bag. You get a couple bonuses compared to the DC original and a visual upgrade that changes the way game looks (characters) and is not quite optmized.

And all games age over time and missing out on SA1 5 years ago, you are less likely to have fun with it in 2004. Get it if it is really cheap, IMHO.

 

[Docpan]

MINE

PS- Why would anyone want to play Chaotix? It's a piece of trash!

Yeah, I think Sonic Adventure DX is a great game to buy and it's Player's Choice too.

 

[Saturnman]

The soundtrack of Chaotix is actually pretty good.
