[Guy Legend]

Why do they always neglect Sonic CD. I'm still tempted to pick this up, but Sonic CD would have made it an instant buy for me.

Maybe they can get Sonic CD up as a downloadable game on PSN and XB Live.

Hmm...some new stuff since the PSP Genny collection...no? I don't remember Golden Axe (Master System) being on there.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Why don't you guys wish for a Dreamcast 2 while you're at it?
Jesus.

Golden Axe Warrior is sweet btw. If you're a fan of original NES Zelda gameplay this is your ticket to ride.

 

[goldenpp72]

no toejam and earl is what makes this collection a dissapointment for genesis fans..

 

[Toy Soldier]

Yeah, I figured that would be a definite selection.

It's still packed to the ceiling with awesome games, though. Day one.

It's bitch-ass hard though.

I can't understand why TJ&E and Sonic CD wouldn't be on this comp. With everything else they are throwing in, why the hell not?

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

From my understanding, the original creator of TJ&E gets some sort of royalty every time Sega sells a copy of the game. At least that's what I *think* I read years ago.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Yup, they had their own studio, "Toejam and Earl Productions" and owned the TJ&E IP. They shut down after the Xbox game bombed (it was a great game, BTW).

want

 

[GhaleonEB]

What's interesting about that list is they have Altered Beast on the Genesis portion of the list initially announced and have released screens from that version. So it looks like both the Genny and arcade versions will be included.

I really want to see shots of the arcade versions.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

They shut down after the Xbox game bombed (it was a great game, BTW).

True. It was essentially a remake of Toejam & Earl 1(in terms of design at least, the story was completely different) just with gorgeous graphics(60 FPS!) and a ton more things to do. One of the many reasons to hold onto an original Xbox(since TJ&E3 has no BC support).

 

[jyx]

Shinobi!!!!! One of the greatest arcade game ever. Will buy this compilation for this game alone. Welcome to Bonus stage

 

[Ricker]

Since it's confirmed that Phantasy Star will be on there,I'll probably pick this up....but I would like to know first what needs to be done to "unlock" the game...i hope it's not something hard....since it's the original game in the series and that the 3 others are unlocked,hopefully it's on a timer and let's say after playing 15 minutes of any other game on there,they unlock,something like that(hopefully not having to beat Phantasy Star II,III and IV first )

Golden Axe Warrior is IMO the best zelda clone out there. I had alot of fun with that game!

That's just downright disgusting.

i'd pay a lot for that, they should throw in sonic xtreme as an unfinished bonus.

 

[[Nintex]]

That's just downright disgusting.

Someone took a dump on the screen and sat on it.

That's just downright disgusting.

As it has been stated before, those filters (yes, they're ugly) are defaulted to off when you play the game. If you want them on, you have to go into the options screen and turn them on yourself.

Unless, of course, you're just referring to the overly phallic sword...

 

[Rolf NB]

What's a man gotta do to unlock these bonus games?

 

[SabinFigaro]

Hopefully it's not something asinine like Sonic Mega Collection (i.e. play Sonic Spinball and Sonic 3D Blast 30 times each, etc.).

 

[yakulto]

Day one for me.

Though I have a large number of the games in my Mega Drive library already, the convenience of them all being on one disk and the chance to play them on my PS3 with it's big screen/sound set-up makes me very excited indeed.......

And I get to play them with my arcade stick too - bonus!

 

[LouieGeetoo]

Hopefully it's not something asinine like Sonic Mega Collection (i.e. play Sonic Spinball and Sonic 3D Blast 30 times each, etc.).

That was terrible. I never did unlock Ristar.

 

[Souther]

If they were going to choose a filter why didn't they use the HQ4X or the Scale4X filter instead of this eagle or super eagle filter...

You can still disable the filter, right?

If I dare say, it's a rip-off better than the original. Of course, I still have my SEGA Club membership card with me, so take that with a grain of salt.

 

[Haeleos]

This is $26.99 on amazon.ca.

360: http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B001G3AZS2/
PS3: http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B001G33V8S/

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

Having never played any Phantasy Star games (other than PSO) I'm looking forward to this collection more than I have any recent collection.

Now, what's this about needed to have maps on hand to finish these games?

 

[Xenon]

This collection needs an official thread with pics.

PepsiManVSJoe has a pretty badass thread going over here:

We should move all the talk into this thread.

 

[The Chosen]

Has it been confirmed whether you can lock S&K and Sonic 3 together?

You can't.

Damn.

Thanks for the quick response.

 

[ZealousD]

Go to the main menu and I think the Y button will bring up "Extras". They'll be in there with instructions. I think they're tied to certain achievements too.

Edit: Stupid thread resurrection!

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

I want this. Will get it sooner or later. Any difference between the PS3 and X360 versions?

 

[M3wThr33]

Well, seeing ALL 4 Phantasy Star titles in a single game... there we go.
