Sega Genesis Collection (PSP)

The Sega Genesis Collection was put together very good by Sega. I've been playing Phantasy Star 4 on the go w/ my PSP and its just like it was on the Genesis. A cool thing about this collection is you can save any time. I highly recommend it to anyone that loves to play classic games. List of games included: Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle Altered Beast Bonanza Bros. Columns Comix Zone Decap Attack Ecco the Dolphin Ecco 2: The Tides of Time Ecco Jr. Kid Chameleon Flicky Gain Ground Golden Axe Golden Axe 2 Golden Axe 3 Phantasy Star 2 Phantasy Star 3: Generations of Doom Phantasy Star 4: End of the Millenium Ristar Shadow Dancer: Secret of Shinobi Shinobi 3: Return of the Ninja Master Sonic the Hedgehog Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Super Thunder Blade Sword of Vermilion Vectorman Vectorman 2 Virtua Fighter 2

Sometimes you have to hit false gold to get the real gold

From the list of games on the Genesis collection, one would figure that some of the top games would make it on the Genesis Collection and you would be right. On the other hand you have many filler games that don't deserve to be on the collection. Controls: 4.5 Being able to switch to the classic feel of the genesis by the custom bar gives you a feel of playing the genesis again if you don't have it anymore. The games controls are very responsive to the button controls. Sound:3.5 All the Genesis sounds are back to it's full effect, even if some games are best played without volume or just not playing them at all cough* Alex Kidd cough*. Graphics: 3.5 Its the genesis era, what can I say other than the graphics are not like they are today, but none the less they were the bomb during it's time. Overall: 4.0 The collection might have alot of junk games in there, but the true games out weigh the lightweight games by far.

Good to Relive

This game for the PS2, a collection of Sega Genesis games, everything is great, most of the games and the extras,exept the sound errors in some games, and some of the should of stayed out of the collection, Altered Beast, the inbox launch game, still sucks, as it did in 1989, Alex Kid, and the Enchanted Castle, should of been better off on a Master System collection, it has the graphics of a near great 8-bit game that somehow got on the Genesis, and Bonanza Bros., should have stayed in the arcade. But this is still a good game to relive classics like Sonic the Hedghog, Phantasy Star, and Shinobi,, and underapprecated gems like Comix Zone.
