It's nice to beable to have a disc with this many classic Sonic games on it, brings back many memories. I have always loved Sonic, and although I wish this disc contained Sonic CD it still gets 4 stars.

The Best Of Sonic!

If you are a fan of Sonic and the crew then this is a must buy for you. Sonic Mega Collection includes: Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Sonic and Knuckles, Sonic 3D, Sonic Spin ball, and Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine. There are also comic book covers, a history on the Sonic Empire, and more along with the massive game play. This game is simply nostalgia times ten. For someone who has never played a Sonic game there can be no better introduction.

There are 7 classic Sonic games from the Genesis.

The 1st is Sonic the Hedgehog. A speedy 'hog runs through loop-de-loops, floats over lava, shoots like a pinball, and moves at the speed of sound. There are 6 zones of 3 acts (plus a final zone). You can search for 1 of 6 Chaos Emeralds by going through a giant ring at the end of the stage. Save your animal friends & defeat evil Dr. Robotnik. This is one of the harder games.

2nd on the list is Sonic the Hedgehog 2. This is the 1st intro of Miles Prower (A.K.A Tails), the Spin Dash (then known as the Super Dash Attack) and the 7th Chaos Emerald. Grab all 7 by either entering a cheat (I ain't telling you) or by activating the new Starposts (instead of Lampposts) and leap into the tiny stars. Grab them all and you have Super Sonic, who runs faster, jumps higher, and is invincible to enemies and spikes. There are 11 zones, 7 with 2 acts, the 8th with 3, and the last 3 with 1. Defeat the doomsday machine the "Death Egg". There is also 2-P action.

The next is Sonic the Hedgehog 3. The Death Egg crash lands on the huge Floating Island (N.K.A Angel Island) Dr. R tricks the guardian of the Chaos Emeralds, Knuckles. The giant rings return, but they are hidden. There are 6 zones with 2 acts (but the zones are 3x larger than StH 2 zones). There are 5 new 2-P zones. There are also 3 new shields and a Robotnik item.

4th is Sonic & Knuckles (3 of the secret games have something to do with this, the other 2 are seperate). Dr. R now needs the Master Emerald to get the Death Egg out of the huge volcano. There are 5 zones with 2 acts, and 3 with 1. (They are as big as StH 3 zones). This is basically Part 2 of Sonic 3.

5th is Sonic 3D Blast. Save all of the Flickies from their robot shells. Explore snowy mountains, volcanoes, and groves.

6th is Sonic Spinball. Destroy the Veg-O-Fortress while freeing the animals, grabbing Chaos Emeralds, destroying bosses & playing bonus rounds. The game that's right on the fine line between hard & easy, it's pinball with a Sonic twist.

Finally there's Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine. This is basically Puyo Puyo with Dr. R's henchbots. Let the beans escape!

There are 5 secret games, Knuckles in Sonic 2, Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Flicky, Ristar, & Blue Sphere. There are also original manuals for the 7 defaults, Flicky, and Ristar. And there rare artwork, comic book covers plus a full comic, and movies. All at a discounted price!

This is one of the most fun games on the market! It includes: Sonic 1, 2, 3, Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic 3D Blast, Sonic Spinball, Dr. Robotnik's MeanBean Machine, and bonus features such as Comic Covers, Comics, Pictures, and movies! There are bonus games, too, but I won't tell you what they are, or how to get them... Here are the categories: Sonic 1, 2, 3, 3D Blast, S&K: Action, Sonic Spinball: Pinball, Dr. Robotnik's MeanBean Machine: Tetris. To access a secret comic, in extras, go to the comics section and select "Sonic Firsts."

Always loved Sonic, always will!

This collection is awesome, because it contains all of our favorite games, like the original Sonic, Sonic 2 and 3, Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic 3D blast, and Sonic Spinball. Oh, and the only one that is a flaw, Robotnik's mean bean machine. I wish the could of put Sonic CD on instead of that, like that previous reviewer. I give this collection 4.5/5. Go and get it today!

This Game Rocks

7 sonic games 1 package

There are 7 sonic games Sonic 1-3, Sonic and Knuckles, Sonic Spinball, Sonic 3D Blast and Dr. Robotnicks Mean Bean Machine. There are also 5 unlockable games (ill tell how to get them later). Also there are movies, drawings, and comic covers
Here are my game reviews

Sonic 1: A great game. Good music and bosses, theres only 1 downside no spindash. Final Grade A

Sonic 2: Also awesome. More in depth gameplay. And Tails first appearance. NO big Part for Tails a 2 player can be him except they cant do much, I suggest letting them beat the boss. Also theres a 2 player mode! Final Grade A+

Sonic 3: Not the greatest but good. You can now save! Also you can play as Sonic alone, Tails alone or them together. If you play together with someone use Tails to fly Sonic to the end. Also I suggest playing with Tails alone,for you can fly through the level, In #2 you couldnt fly. Final grade A

Sonic and Knuckles: Play as Sonic or Knuckles, no tails. This is an okay game no save nothing really new except KNuckles and annoying music. Final Grade A-

Sonic Spinball: Use Sonic as a pinball. Kinda BOrig. Only pinball fanz will really get into it. Final Grade B

Sonic 3D Blast: Lousy, Sonic in 3D here sucks. The controls are lousy all levels are the same. Beat it once and never touch it again. No tails or KNuckles also you have to gather these annoying birds to beat it. Final Grade C-

Dr Robotnicks Bean Machine: not even close to a Sonic game. Its a more advance and complicated tetris game. Only fun with 2 players. Also it has ... funky music that rocks! Final Grade B+

NOW TO THE UNLOCKABLE GAMES
The 5 are
1) FLicky its a old Sega game. Your a blue bird that runs around collecting chicks and getting them to an exit, before the cats come and eat the and you. Final Grade B

2)Ristar- Never played it
3) Blue Spheres- Never played it

I dont know the rest.

How you unlock these is having a Sega made game on your memory card like Sonic Battle 2, Sonic DX, MOnkey Ball, Sonic Hereos.

Overall this is an excellent package, for any die hard fan or new comers. Dont recommend to people with most of these games on Sega VERY FINAL GRADE A

Worth the price of the GameCube itself

I just recently got a GameCube for my birthday,and
I got this game with it.I used to have a Sega Genesis
with some kind of Sonic game (I can't remember which one,
I think it was Sonic II but I'm not sure)so this was
a great game to have.

Here are the games on this set:

Sonic I:My fave on this set.Not the best Sonic game
ever (that honor goes to Sonic CD) but still very good.
***** 5 stars

Sonic II: Kind of a rehash of the first (aside from
the fact that it features Tails and a multiplayer
mode) but still fun. WARNING:VERY CARPAL TUNNEL INDUCING!!
**** 4 stars

Sonic III:The only one one the set where you can
save the game. NOT like the first two at all.
Very,very hard.
***1/2 3 1/2 stars

Sonic and Knuckles:SUPER HARD! I really wish you
could save the game on this one but you can't.
** 2 stars

Sonic Spinball:This one is a (very hard) pinball game.
I don't play this one too much.
** 2 stars

Dr. Robotnick's Mean Bean Machine: No comment.

Besides the games,there is an extras menu with:
1:A gallery of the Sonic comic books.
2.A gallery of Sonic artwork.
3:The opening title of Sonic CD.
4:The end credits of Sonic CD.
5:A short film on the history of the Sonic games.
6:Commercials,but they are for
Sonic Advance and SA2:Battle. Give me a break.

Like I said,this is the PERFECT game for
GameCube.

ok, ok

I was the guy that said this was bad. I played it, and this is pretty cool. I'd still love that 3-d world, but for 2o dollars, this is great. It has the better sonic games, unlockables and other stuff. this is a great deal!!!!

Well........

This is a very fun game but it is the almost least played game in my collection with # 1 being Star Wars Rebal Strike. The reason why that is, is because I had almost all of the Sonic Genesis Games and because when you have all the new generation games most people are going to play those....I am not saying old games stink, I am a HUGE Sonic Fan. The fact that is the only thing I asked for my birthday was Sonic Stuff and I bought this by selling my broken PS2 and all of the games I got three games this was one and I still do play it but I have SA2B, SADX & SSBM to keep my time and yet this still has a BIG place in my heart.
