Everyones been going on about it a lot and I didnt really take any notice, but now I realise - March is an expensive month, gamecube wise that is.

I am very short of money at the minute, it all got spent on Animal crossing and Metroid Prime on import and Im saving for import zelda which comes out this month.

Anyway I reckon I can get one game - with a little help from my dads wallet.
What game shall it be,
Sonic Mega Collection? Resident Evil 0? Super Monkey Ball 2 on Friday?
Or Phantasy Star Online + Modem adaptor = hunters license fee?

If I was rich I'd get em all, but my dads leaning me in the direction of Sonic Mega Collection coz he wants Sonic Spinball.

It also doesnt help when he's trying to get me to buy an XBOX and a GBA SP.

If I can get him to pay then maybe March wont be quite so expensive after all.

I didn't mean to gloat. I actually recovered that quickly due to a period of well disciplined financial restrain.

Obviously, if you can get hold of a MegaDrive (prefereably one in brand new condition) and the majority of the Sonic games, then it's not worth getting Sonic Mega Collection. However, if you want the complete MegaDrive collection with plenty of extras, it is a brilliant compilation!

To be honest, I never ever thought I'd see the original Sonic the Hedgehog game on a Nintendo console :D

So yes, I reccomend it :)

As I said in my review at ukreviews.com, it may not push the GameCube to it's limits, but it is one heck of a fun compilation to play (or somewhere along the lines of...)

How stupid - relase naff all over the highest spending period of the year, and then start releasing must-have titles when everyone starts receieving their Christmas credit card bills and starts a self-enforced period of prudency.

Top tactics, Nintendo.

However, I am not amongst those, thankfully. Edgy, having got the Sonic collection, do you recommend it? I'm thinking of purchasing it, if only to try and recapture some lost youth.

Well last Friday I managed to get Sonic Mega Collection and Resident Evil Zero, and on Saturday I recieved Phantasy Star Online through the post.

I'm addicted to all three!
