Classic Play Upgraded and Earning Trophies
Each title within Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection has been converted to hi-def (720p), ensuring that classic SEGA Genesis 2D style gaming never looked so good, but this collection is about more than looks. Each game will also play just as well, with original control schemes precisely matched to the intuitive and familiar controls of the PlayStation 3 video gaming system. And since fun is always better when shared, multiplayer fans will enjoy the competition as they and their friends engage in 2-player classic battles in select games.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - These games are so yesterday
I bought this to play with my gf. These games are so bad and the graphics are such low resolution compared to what the PS3 can do that we both put it away never to play again. A complete waste of money.

I suppose if you were once into these games then you might enjoy it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection
For Genesis fans that sold, lost, or for what ever reason miss those old classics this is totaly worth it! Is it necessary to have 16 bit graphics in HD? No of course not. Honestly I can't tell the difference but just to have Altered Beast, Space Harrier, and Streets of Rage at my fingertips, Awesome. Plus those long RPG's that only had those pain in the ass infrequent save points, no problem. Hit select on the controller and the PS3 will save any time any where! After you unlock everything you ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Some good stuff, but overall a missed opportunity
Here's how it should have went.

Sega should have given us a literal Sonic Ultimate Collection by putting Sonic 1, 2, 3, 3D, Knuckles, Advance 1, 2, 3, Spinball, Mean Bean Machine, Knuckles Chaotix and Sonic CD on one PS3 disc with unlockable extras like the Game Gear titles.

Streets of Rage should be remade in HD. There are already fan-made Streets of Rage games out there with awesome remixed soundtracks. An epic HD remake with the original Streets of Rage 1, 2 and (the Japanese ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Back to the Old School
My first game system was the Sega Genesis, so I was really excited to get this and try out all the Genesis games again after so long. It was crazy to realize how much more challenging the old games were, but its so much fun!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Classic Games let you relive your childhood.
Growing up, I never got the chance to own a Sega Genesis being an SNES owner myself in the 16 bit era. So naturally I did not get to experience all of the great Sega games that were out there. With this Collection of games, I was able to relive that part of my childhood all over again.

This game contains almost all of the best Sega games that there were on the Genesis as well as some other classics. Featuring such classic games as Sonic 1-3, Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic Spinball, Streets of Rage ... Read More
