It's still a damn good collection, but it was outright lazy to remove S3&K. The official statement was that if they did that, they'd have to remove other games in the process because it was hard to do.
Obviously that's BS :3 Because Mega Collection did it just fine and technically S3&K (and S2&K and Blue Sphere) are just two roms combined in one, lockon technology is a cakewalk to emulate compared to, say, 32X (which is why we have no Chaotix yet). Definitely lazy :^P Still, there's tons of goodies here that I think I can overlook this bit very easily.
Meh, I don't really care for S3&K in all honesty (Preferred Sonic CD.) Plus, with Ristar unlocked from the get-go and Shinobi III? I think I can forgive them.
Also it wasn't Sega's in-house studio that did the compilation, it was Backbone Entertainment, and as good as those canucks are, they usually cut corners with their compilation games.
Why is it that only you, me, the_terrible and gtasuxcoximho are the only fuckers to know what Blast Processing is? (Well, based around people you and I both know)
I'd buy the Ultimate Genesis Collection... if I didn't recently get my hands on ROCKET KNIGHT ADVENTURES
Man, it feels weird holding a Genesis controller after all these years.
Y'know, we should open an arcade that has nothing but the old school shit we grew up playing. Altered Beast? After Burner? Mothefuckin' MICHAEL JACKSON MOONWALKER? And don't even act like you wouldn't play that shit.
And of course, we have to throw in the awesome Konami "team games" like all the Ninja Turtles, Cowboys of Moo Mesa, and fucking SIX-PLAYER X-MEN.
Fuck DDR, fuck ParaPara and fuck Initial D. AWESOME SIDE SCROLLING ARCADE GOODNESS ONLY ALLOWED AT THIS BITCH. Hell, the name of the place would be "Retro Goodness"
Shining Series~ *slaps forehead* I almost forgot they were on this, and when I'm not playing Phantasy, I'll play those as well.
Again, not really griping for the loss of S3&K. Sucks they don't have it, but as I said, Shinobi III (And the superior arcade version of Altered Beast....!) makes me feel ten again just fine~
