 plenty of retro games nothing amazing but still fun November 24, 2008
plenty of retro games lots of fun but nothing amazing still good buy for the money though.
Great purchase, if old school is your thing. November 3, 2008
These collections only work for me on a portable. There is no way I could sit in front of a TV and play through three Golden Axe games, but on the fly, I don't mind.
If you've never played Phantasy Star 4, then that game alone is worth the purchase.
My second favorite RPG of all time under FF7.
 one of the best compilations you'll ever find. September 8, 2008

This collection has it all. Platformers, Brawlers, RPGs, Fighting, top down shooters, and some fantastic arcade games you probably never heard of.
Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 - what can be said? its the signature sega franchise, and still a blast to play today.
Super Thunder Blade - early attempt at 3d in the vein of star fox
Sword of Vermilion - classic rpg goodness
VectorMan 1 and 2 - a great platformer/shooter
Alex Kidd - a surprisingly tough platformer
Altered Beast - a brawler where you take the forms of animals
Ecco + Tides of Time and Jr - great platformer/adventure series
Flicky - a fun little arcade game in the vein of Joust
Gain Ground - top down shooter action with rpg elements
Golden Axe 1, 2, and 3 - one of the best brawler series of the 16-bit era
Kid Cameleon - a great platformer with tons of different powers/costumes
Phantasy Star 2, 3, and 4 - great rpg series spanning thousands of years
Ristar - a unige action/platformer
Shadow Dancer- a punishing prequel to Shinobi
Shinobi III- great action/platformer. the best in the series
Virtua Fighter 2- its the genesis version, not the arcade. decent but nothing compared to the arcade version.
Bonus Games: Astro Blaster, Congo Bongo, Eliminator, Space Fury, and Super Zaxxon. ive only unlocked congo bongo and space fury so far. the first one is like an isometric Donkey Kong, and the other is like a much more colorful asteroids.
other extras include original trailers for certain games as well as developer interviews. overall its one of the best deals on the PSP. any fan of retro games/nostalgia needs to pick this one up immediately.

While video game technology continues to grow, it's important to remember our roots - and this collection of 4th generation Genesis games is a great way to relive that past glory.
The following are included in this compilation:
Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle - This is a cute game in a Mario-like setting. The gameplay has intermissions of Janken (Rock, Paper, Scissors).
Altered Beast - In this side scroller fighting game, you take the role of a centurion brought back from the dead, with mystical powers at your disposal.
Bonanza Bros. Similar to the Atari 2600 game Keystone Kapers; you take control of one of the Bonanza Brothers. Your goal is to steal items from various houses without getting caught.
Columns - Akin to games like Tetris, this puzzle game is designed to match up gems vertically, diagonally, or horizontally.
Comix Zone -You are Sketch Turner, a comic book artist who has to fight his way out of a comic strip he created.
Decap Attack - This has similar gameplay to Sonic the Hedgehog, except you play as a decapitated mummy called Chuck D. Head.
Ecco the Dolphin / Ecco: The Tides of Time / Ecco Jr. - This is a side-scroller trilogy where you get to control a dolphin named Ecco to rescue members of his pod, travel through space & time, or relive your roots as a young dolphin.
Flicky - It's your duty as Flicky the bird to rescue lost chicks from housecats and a mischievous iguana.
Gain Ground - An interesting game where you choose from 3 characters with different weapons & abilities...the goal for each stage? Kill or be killed.
Golden Axe / Golden Axe II / Golden Axe III -This side-scrolling, hack `n' slash trilogy pits the characters of an elf, a barbarian, or an Amazon against the murderous Death Adder, the Dark Guild, and various other enemies with swords and sorcery.
Kid Chameleon - Similar to the plot of TRON, it's up to you to defeat every level of a video game nightmare with masks to power up your character in unique ways.
Phantasy Star II / Phantasy Star III / Phantasy Star IV - This is an epic role-playing game series. You can play Algol Star System, or play part III with multiple endings, or store attack sequences in part IV.
Ristar - The game that inspired Sonic the Hedgehog, your character is in a side scroller setting, using stretching arms & hands to move and combat foes.
Shadow Dancer: The Secret of Shinobi - A platform game with a dog as your sidekick and ninjitsu as your weapons.
Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master - Advanced ninjitsu, new enemies, and varied gameplay make Shinobi III an excellent entry in this collection.
Sonic The Hedgehog / Sonic The Hedgehog 2- The series debut of that ring collecting Hedgehog, starring Dr. Robotnik, and his sidekick Tails!
Super Thunder Blade - A helicopter attack game with missiles, guns, and more enemies than you know what to do with!
Sword of Vermilion - An RPG with different views and menus to spice up the gameplay.
Vectorman / Vectorman 2 - This side scrolling game series allows you to control an Orbot to restore peace to the planet earth.
Virtua Fighter 2- The game which changed the face of 3D fighting games for all time.
There are 5 more unlockable games, which are unique to the PSP version:
Astro Blaster - Unlocked by completing Comix Zone Episode 1.
Congo Bongo - Unlocked by finding a Chaos Emerald in Sonic the Hedgehog.
Eliminator - Unlocked by beating the 2nd stage of Altered Beast.
Space Fury -Unlocked by finding the first hidden area in Ristar.
Super Zaxxon - Unlocked by trying every game, including bonus games.
+ Pros:
+ Great game selections
+ Ability to choose button layouts
+ Savable progress within every game
+ 2 player capability with WAN connection
- Cons:
- Some of the cheat codes don't work
If you only want one compilation disc for your PSP, The Sega Genesis Collection is all you'll ever need. I highly recommend this one.
