Grabbed this used without checking reviews first (which I usually don't do), popped it in, and its garbage at first glance.
I didnt realize that it was junky looking 3d remakes... guess I didnt check the packaging that closely.
Anyways, I'm not totally giving up on it. Wondered if any of the titles are worth playing at all to anyone. I know they wont even remotely do the originals justice, but just wanted to ask if anyone out there gets any fun out of them.
If even 1 or 2 titles are a good time, Ill probably keep it... even if it was just Virtua Racing.

Re: Sega Classics Collection
Whoa, a lyrical remake!
Anyways, I liked Space Harrier no matter what, even if the new one wasnt as fun, it still added something new. Alien syndrome was pretty decent too.
Reading the back of my copy, it claims they are "Remastered"... I would have to say Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection is more of a remaster, while the PS2 collection is more of a spicy remake.
If I remember, I dont think Golden axe was terrible either.

Re: Sega Classics Collection
The Classics Collection is a compilation disc of a few of the Sega Ages 2500 series releases from Japan. The entire list (shamelessly stolen) of ports and remakes:
Some of these are just ports (Phantasy Star Collection), some are enhanced ports (Virtua Racing, which runs at 60fps), and some are complete remakes (Outrun). They were sold individually for 2500 yen each (hence the 2500 series moniker).
The Sega Classics collection included some of the worst games in the series, which sucks. If you have the ability to play them, I would strongly recommend you import or download some of the better games in the series - especially Phantasy Star Collection, which features the entire pre-PSO series of games, and PS I-IV have an option to play in English.

Re: Sega Classics Collection
The Fantasy Zone port is great.
Re: Sega Classics Collection
Damn, wouldn't mind having some of those others... Virtual Fighter, Last Bronx, and Gunstar especially
