Looking forward to Golden Axe 2 and 3, hope there's Golden Axe Arcade unlockable too. Why Streets of Rage 1, 2 and 3 aren't here is a mystery, those games rock.

No Sonic 3 + Knuckles?

Yawn...

Either way, I'd rather just get an emu and play that way.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!

Yeah, I don't know why Sega makes exclusives. Sony must have paid them extra.

To quote myself:

Said By Myself
Well, let's go Sega! Butcher and botch another compilation. Let's see. Looking over this list I see some useless games (GoldenAxe 3, Vectorman 2, Sword of Vermillion, Virtua Fighter 2, Altered Beast), games that damn well deserve another outing (Ristar, Alex Kidd, Phantasy Star II, Comix Zone, Ecco, Ecco II), games that are missing (Revenge of Shinobi, Virtua Racing, Super Manaco Grand Prix 2), not to mention games that sure as hell don't deserve (or need) another release (Sonic, Sonic 2, Ecco Jr., Columns). The rest is more-or-less "meh."

Michael: Jodie, how's my schedule look for today?
Jodie: You've got a conference and dinner party at the Japanese Embassy regarding wildlife protection.
Michael: Oh, yeah...sorry, but I'll have to cancel that. I'm heading out to save America!

Yes, Sonic 1 and 2 just HAD a compilation, I agree 100 percent.

From the screenshots, these are all original ports of the Genesis, so it really comes down to whether fans like the games in the list for 20 bucks. I never got the chance to play Golden Axe 2 or 3, so I'm looking forward to that, Golden Axe being one of my favorite Genesis titles. Streets of Rage 2 was the best, why it's not here is unknown.

Golden Axe 3 blows, though.
