Forums - Gaming - IGN: Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection Review.

RatingDescription
out of 10 click here for ratings guide
9.0 Presentation
The opening movie is set to a 16-bit inspired tune and the main menu looks like a Genesis with cartridges dancing in the background. From there, you're in the original games.
7.0 Graphics
The games look like Genesis games -- bright and colorful. That can't compare to our HD era, but you're not playing these game because you want your socks knocked off.
7.0 Sound
Again, these are the sounds of the Genesis. If the Sonic theme can't take you back to a happy place, you have no soul.
9.0 Gameplay
Hurling someone in Streets of Rage? Matching colors in Columns? Beating baddies in Comix Zone? This is classic gaming, and it plays very well for the most part.
9.0 Lasting Appeal
Seriously, there are 49 games here -- 49 full games. Not every one is a winner, but you'll be playing for quite sometime.
9.0
