NONE of the Sonic the Hedgehog games are included or are sold as DLC for this "game". That is Sonic 1, 2, 3, or Sonic and Knuckles. So there are 3 achievements that CAN NOT be attained. When you buy this it has ONE game and you have to buy the other 57 games as DLC for around $30.
I'm guessing that when Sonic Mania or some other "definitive" bundle released they delisted the OG Sonic games. For ♥♥♥♥♥ sakes Sonic is THE TITLE SEGA character and is even the game they show you when you load this game up. That alone means I can not in good conscience recommend this.

The emulation is pretty decent, and the VR mode is a cute novelty, but the best part of this collection Genesis games isn't simply the convenience but the the fact that you can freely use the roms on whatever emulator and device you desire after the fact. Having a simple, easy, legal solution is important, and I appreciate this a lot. That's most of the good out of the way, however.

Originally, this collection came with Sonic 1, 2, and 3 & Knuckles, but they were all removed as Sonic Origins launched, leaving you without the most optimally legal way to obtain the roms for projects like Sonic 3 AIR. Unfortunately, this issue also prevents you from obtaining all of the achievements now. It's something I like to do occasionally, and it's irritating that anyone coming to this after the fact no longer can. :/

It's massively disappointing, but if you can grab the remaining 55 games in this collection (as of this review) on a good sale, it's begrudgingly still worth it.

Sonic Spinball is a fun silly game and Streets of Rage 3 >>> 2, fight me. ;3

may all that is unfortunate fall upon that disgusting green dude in Dr. Robotniks Mean Bean Machine. When I was blessed with this game via 5 beans from my friend Jacob Havoc, I was delighted by the enticing visuals and sound effects. However, upon discovering the green dude, I wish nothing but hell spawn will fall upon it and it's family. Nothing in my 17 years of living would have prepared me for the torment that thing had caused me. I would advise to call some sort of mental health specialist, and keep them on standby before you even have the impulse to purchase this sin. I now will go rest in the mountains, and train beyond my bodies previous limit, so that I may be able to put this hell-spawn, this demon, this embodiment of a sin, "green dude" down once and for all. Not for my self, but for the people of steam.

Do not purchase this game. Nothing great comes out of it, excepts for some mean beans out of a machine....

(edit: i beat him, i meditated in the mountains. Still suck cause of the pruple dude)

I love booting up a 3d room every time I play Sonic 2. #lawabidingcitizen
