Bad

Not quite what I had in mind

I used to love playing games on the Sega Genesis system (the old 16-bit? Or was it still 8-bit? I think it was 16-bit, and Nintendo was trying to catch up in the market race). Mortal Kombat was definitely among my favorites on this platform, and Sonic The Hedgehog was another favorite. But as I scrolled through the games, I found only a small number that I remember playing. In fact, I can count on one hand how many games were on this collection that I thought were worth playing at all. And there was no upscaling the games to full screen. The only settings to choose from were "Autosave" and "Audio Settings" which included volumes for SFX, music, and I think Voice.

I don't foresee picking up this game anytime soon. In fact, after only 20 minutes, I put the game collection back in its GameFly shipping package, and will be sending it back in. This was probably the 20 minutes of my life that I truly feel was wasted.

Most of these games, except for the sonics i have never even heard of. I LOVE this game so much. This game also probably took me like 2 days too get platinum on extremly easy trophies

What a great game for retro fans like myself, bringing back the best of the best like Alter Beast,Sonic the hedgehog, and Golden Axe. It also brought back some games you might have played before which gave you a great chance to try them out.The trophies/achievements was easy to get i got a gold trophy easily ( i play on PS3), but i had a minor giltch, i was suppose to get an extra game,Shinobi Arcade,from getting a trophy from the Shinobi 3, i got it but i still didn't had Shinobi Arcade (weird, right?),but it was great to walk down memory lane.I would strongly recommend this game for all gamers alike.
