is this real or am i dreaming,,,, Golden Axe ,Shinobi III™,etc...huumm I have to get this compilation.

This is 100x better than the retro XBL games; and cheaper too.

why does everything turn into a sony vs microsoft thing

"why does everything turn into a sony vs microsoft thing"

in this i agree 100% with you ej....its starts to take away the pleasure of posting and debating single news non related with x360 vs ps3.

All i meant was that, its a heck of a lot better to get 30 games on one disc for one price...then to buy them piece meal like XBL, Virtual Console, or that PSOne download service PSP is getting soon. THERE everyone is blasted! Happy?

When does the PSOne download service for the PSP begin? I'm ready for it.

Hello Fellow Gamers. These games are already available via Emulators (for Free). This is a little to late for SEGA on the most part. What they should do is release Nex-Gen versions of their most Popular games. Sonic & PSU are a start.

How about Nights? That game would be awesome on the nex-gen systems (x360/PS3/Wii). Streets of Rage would be kool in 3D. SEGA has a lot of titles that would be great if they would stop trying to recycle what we already have.

Panzer Dragoon Saga remake for the next gen consoles would be great!

Is that type of game that realy deserves a great remake...im prety sure that it would be a blockbuster.

no im not happy fruity but its cool lol :)

If microsoft get the treasure team joint another time and convince them to produce a game with the quality of panzer dragoon saga , x360 gets even more stonger.

anyway anybody here had player this game?

Jago; next gen Sonic is coming. Sadly, it'll wont be old skool, side skrolling phun.

now only if they do tha same with Xbox360 arcade

On the previous topic, Lets face it, other than SF2 and Galaga nothing much is interesting in XBLA and as for the ones coming soon, its not out yet and won't be for a while, this thing is also good, but knowing sega's track record on emulation, and based on their budget and jobs... it won't be great like real emulation and goodgen :>

Xbox emulators... Simple.
