This is not a game for renting. this is a game for BUYING from the discount pile and just OWNING, just in case you ever want to relive the old days. when violence wasen't a nessesety and games were half challenging and...I GOTTA GO PLAY THIS! (runs off)

It's a cliche, but, "People who like this sort of thing will find this is the sort of thing they like." What you've basically got here is a collection of all the Sonic games for the old Sega Megadrive (aka. Genesis) and Game Gear. There's a few add-ons, but they're non-interactive and not really that interesting (a collection of all the Sonic The Comic covers?) The games themselves are still classics, although you have to put up with the weak graphics that result from it being an old console (which can also cause some trouble on certain TVs and monitors - some of the games blurred heavily on my LCD, presumably because of the Genesis' frame rate). They're still playable and enjoyable, although not as perfect as some might believe: the controls feel a little clunky in comparison to modern offerings and modern gamers may be frustrated by the unforgiving nature of the games (it's entirely possible to have completed a chunk of the game but missed the Chaos Emerald and then to have no way to go back, meaning you have to start from scratch - this was standard in older games, but isn't accepted so much now). Some are also obsoleted by current games: for example, "Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine" is essentially the same as Puyo Pop Fever for the Xbox, but with less features and worse graphics. Probably, you already know if you want this or not; if you want a nice playable 2D platformer or five (!) and aren't too fussed for graphics this would be a good bet, but it's not the kind of thing to pick up randomly because you feel like a game for the weekend - you might be let down.
