Never tried those myself, I'm curious to know what exactly is wrong with them?
Bad sound, ugly scaling/filtering, input lag.

Damn. Any experience with the PS2 Mega Drive Collection? Been eyeing that one too (though it's the same one that came out on PSP so judging from your report I shouldn't get my hopes up...)
Is it confirmed if there are unlockable games like the PS3 collection?

Are the Shining Force and Phantasy Star games even still playable by today's standards? I remember them feeling dated even when they were brand new.
The crushing lack of Ecco is crushing, but it comes with Phantasy Star and Shining Force so I'm all in!
That would have been a great addition.Really excited for this but really wish Virtua Racing was included
Yeah, I think the emulation in this collection is actually a step back from the emulation in Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection. Microsoft should expand its Back Compat program, and Sega should provide Microsoft with as much documentation on its past systems as possible to give Microsoft's Back Compat team a crack at this. XDGoddamn I was hyped but this is worse than I thought. Slowdowns, frames lost, audio glitches, audio going out of sync. And all of this only on a half an hour run of Sonic 1.
First model PS4 here and I currently have zero desire to play more of this, even tho some games I could never beat and never got to try out.

Unless there's a region select on Steam, that. Some games allow you to select what regions rom you play, Streets of Rage series and Ristar for axample.Nice OT!
Quick question: I've had this on Steam for a while (minus the Sonic games). Is there anything new added beyond those silly achievements?
Shining Force I and especially II hold up extremely well and have not really been topped in the genre outside of presentation in my opinion.Are the Shining Force and Phantasy Star games even still playable by today's standards? I remember them feeling dated even when they were brand new.
There is a rewind and fast forward feature, region select (which effectively adds new games if you count the differences between games like Streets of Rage 3 and Dynamite Headdy), various challenges across most if not all games, an optional mirror mode that reverses the gameplay image and online play.Nice OT!

PS4? We gotta co-op Gunstar.Beat Dural in virtua fighter 2. Framerate came to a halt in that round. Must have been 1 or 2 frames per second.
And holy cow but how have I never heard of Alien Soldier?! I adore Gunstar Heroes and I never knew Treasure made this a couple years later.

I had no idea this was ever a thing.Can't really go back to the Genesis Ecco after playing this.

It wasn't released in the US, it's probably the systems biggest hidden gem. It's more well known now, but back then nobody cared.
What you see is what you get.
I earned the platinum trophy through sheer willpower and perseverance with some of these titles and was unable to successfully find a multiplayer match to test that function.
The challenges are a specific set of tasks. You select one, it loads up the game at a specific point with you having a specific task. For example, the Golden Axe challenge is to complete a duel battle with 1 bar of health against two enemies. The Sonic challenge is to complete Green Hills Act 2 in mirror mode in under a minute.A bunch of people are playing it now, right?
Let's see those challenges.
Beat Shining Force II on hard better be on there .
With challenges there's no save states and no rewind or fast forward.Stupid question from a trophy whore, but I heard some of these challenges are brutal? What are your thoughts? Are you able to save slate with them? Thanks
I suspect they do it just because they own the rights to the game fully so it's easy to just bung the rom in any emulated collection to boost the game count on the box. These collections are always essentially just all the games Sega has the full rights to on the platform. Porting an actually worthwhile version of VF2 takes more effort.I will never understand why Sega likes to push this port so hard in their Genesis/ Mega Drive collections. It was released almost two years after the Saturn port and months before the Win9x PC port. The Genesis/ Mega Drive was pretty much done by 1996-1997. Virtua Fighter 2 was like, one of the last first party games released for the console.

Is there a list with games you can change the region of it? I hear Streets of rage 3, Dynamite headdy, Ristar. Any more?

Yes. All games that support two players can be played online. Including Altered Beast.Which games support online multiplayer? Is it all the games that incorporate more than one player? Can I play Altered Beast with a friend across the country?
Ah, okay. I think I have that on... the Xbox 360 somewhere. >.> Which is kinda gathering dust at the moment, but oh well...Sonic 3K might possibly get delisted so be aware of that if you want it.
Just got it on PS4, I have a few complaints but overall I think it's a fine enough package so far, especially for the price (50 games by M2 would probably cost over $100)
