Gameplay: Must I explain this? Everyone has played Sonic 1 before...Oh, alright. Heh. All 4 of the Sonic Games are Platformers. You go Left or Right, jumping on top of enemies, and using various techniques to reach the end of the level. These include Spin-Dashing, Flying, and Gliding. You basically have to do whatever you can to reach the end of the level.
Music: Ah, Sega and it's composers. Sonic Music is absolutely fantastic. Each game features a bunch of great tracks, ranging from Rock to Pop. My personal favorite is the Ending Theme from Sonic 2. Fun Fact: The Ending Theme from Sonic 2 is actually an instrumental of a J-Pop Song called "Sweet Dream".
Graphics: The graphics in each game are colorful and bright. No matter what level your on, you'll see a bright color somewhere.
The Extra Stuff: This compilation includes some neat features, such as an Easy Mode and a Disable Timer feature for each game. I assume this was implemented for newer players, as when you play Easy Mode, some levels are missing completely. Still, it's pretty fun. There's also Sonic World, a 3D Mini-Game where you can accept challenges, such as collecting rings in a certain time. Not only that, there are buildings in Sonic World that feature Art, Music, classic TV Commercials, and more.
The Result: This game is an absolute must have for Sega Saturn owners. Why it got such bad reviews, I will NEVER know...Why are you still reading this?! Get over to eBay and find this game! Do it! Do it NOW!!
Score: 9.5/10
