Oh, how it feels good to finally play a REAL Sonic game, again!
After Sonic Adventure, I'd lost faith in the series... Untill I got back to the classics. On this one discs not only are there the first-3 MegaDrive Sonic games, aswell as Sonic and Knuckles, the excellent Sonic Spinball, the brilliant Tetris-like Dr.Robotnik's Mean-Bean Machine, aswell as the awful Sonic 3-D: Flickie's Island... But several more can be unlocked along the way - including the brilliant little-know, under-rated platformer known as Ristar.
All back and as-brilliant-as-ever, just like they were so-long-ago.
But it's not all about the Sonic 'games' on this disc, either...
In the 'Extras' section you'll find a load of Sonic art in the form of comic-book front-covers and even full-issues, aswell as movies of the likes of Sonic CD (why the heck hasn't this one been included?!?!), Sonic Advance 2, and a brief 'History of Sonic' section.
And aswell as all that, you can even view each game's original American (Genesis) manual, in-full...
Now that's what I call utilising the capacity of an 8cm DVD disc!!
If you love Sonic, whether you're new-or-old to the spikey, blue, hedgehog, you'll love this. And if you only love Sonic for the Sonic Adventure, or 'Advance, games alone, then you NEED to buy this to see Sonic the Hedgehog - at it's greatest!

Girls are expensive.
Leave it to Tilta.
Well, I didn't think that. But still.

> I KNEW that was coming. And from Tiltawhirl.
It was so predictable and obvious, someone was bound to say it as some point.
I just put the title out of its misery.
