94For $40, this is one of the greatest compilation games ever released.
-
91Sonic fans owe it to themselves to pick this up. [Dec 2002, p.72]
-
91If I thought the first SONIC was good, I was completely blown away by the second game.
-
90If you have a girlfriend, boyfriend, or spouse who doesn’t get into games that much, plug in this title and go right to "Mean Bean Machine." You’ll have so much fun you won’t hardly believe it.
-
88The controls are top-notch -- even the thumbstick is usable, and it works flawlessly.
-
Perhaps the best compilation ever. [Dec 2002, p.128]
-
A retro classic.
-
It features five great sonic games, and Sega can be excused for including two mediocre titles.
-
It’s the perfect melding of classic old-school gaming on the newest generation of video gaming consoles.
-
80Pastel graphics comprise the visuals, and the audio ranges from passable (Sonic 2) to outright atrocious (Spinball).
-
80Fantastic gameplay.
-
The problem? I thought you'd never ask. No "Sonic CD." If you've ever played "Sonic CD" on the Sega CD you'll know why it NEEDS to be in this collection of great Sonic Genesis titles.
-
75A wonderful little collection that, while not perfect, is a great value.
-
Those who don’t own the Genesis originals or Sonic Jam will find SMC well worth $40; those already possessing most of the included games have little reason purchase this GameCube disc.
-
72If you're fiending for Sonic the Hedgehog and either don't have or are unwilling to drag out a dusty Genesis from the closet, don't hesitate to give it a shot.
-
Good, but could have been so much more. [Dec 2002, p.240]
-
70This title is a vastly preferable alternative to a myriad Sonic Advances in the style of Nintendo's Mario rehashes.
-
70Lost however is some of the speed and flow of the previous games; a little too much in the way of exploration involved for a Sonic game (if you want to find all the bonus level entrances anyway).
-
70If you own a Sega Genesis and only Sonic games, it may be time to trade them all in and buy this single disc; you will save space and come back with even more then what you left with.
-
The extras included in Mega Collection could have been spiffier, but they're interesting enough and round out the package well.
-
If you already have some of these games, I'd advise just blowing the dust off the old Genesis, because there isn't enough good extra stuff here.
-
The ultimate compilation of Sonic adventures. [Dec 2002, p.218]
-
Some easy fixes would have made Sonic Mega Collection a celebration rather than a somwhat missed opportunity. [Nov 2002, p.90]
-
A solid value well worth a spin. Just don't expect much more than the original titles.
-
58While a great collectible, the Sonic Mega Collection is still full of games that most of us fans still probably own in one form or another and it is also a bit too similar to "Sonic Jam."
-
50Sega, however, has seen fit to present the games in such an unflattering collection as to present players with a difficult choice: Do I support the half-assed porting of some of gaming's most treasured titles to current systems, thus ensuring that future retro releases for the company will be as dismal? Or do I withhold my money and wait for Sega to release an unfettered, improved version of the games -- a release that may not come due to supposedly lackluster performance and a dearth of interest?

FredHall8Great game. Now I don' t have to dust off the old Sega to play my sonic games.
