XBLA in Brief: Sega Vintage Collection

Apologies for the lack of emotion in my narration over the gameplay. I'm extremely sick today. :(

woah, Just weird with out Richard...

Comix Zone is ok.. it's fairer in the trial, but a lot of things cause damage as you attack them, Save system saves it for me, tonight was the first time I'd ever completed it..
Altered Beast is terrible, never liked it
Sonic is what it was..
didn't like that Shinobi.. I think it was Revenge that I liked...
I almost squee'd at Phantasy Star 2.. I hope they release the other 3! you have to go east first, then come back home, then east again, once you have what you need, go east again, before that bridge you finished at..
Gunstar.. don't think I liked that either..

David lay off the NyQuil.

:D

If you want all three Genesis PS games, might as well get the Collection for like $25. Plus it has the original on master system.

It's hard to not see these as a rip... From what Xbox.com says, they don't even have online play.

Comix Zone is one of my favourite games. :P

Altered Beast is terrible. It's famous for being a Genesis pack-in game. :P

You can only play as Knuckles in the multiplayer mode (the regular one, not the single player Tails sidekick thing) of Sonic 3 unless you have Sonic & Knuckles locked on.

All of these are on Ultimate Genesis Collection, except for Gunstar Heroes. It's probably a better idea to get that.

comix zone is pretty sweet, but if i didn't have it for the wii and dont really like getting damaged from like everything and limited lives on the wii version kinda makes me want to play this one.

First of all Altered Beast is a classic. Second of All, UGS doesn't allow Lock on, and Shinobi and Altered Beast at least are the arcade ports, not the genesis versions, so they play better/differently.

I would love to see a Next-Gen version of Comic Zone and Rolling Thunder.

I'm buying Sonic 3.

Played Altered Beast last night, and you can easily grab 150 gamerscore points and complete the game in one sitting. Co-op works well, but playing over Live seemed laggy to me.

yea, Roto.. on XBLA, you get the Vintage menu screen, none of the original menu's are there.. so exiting Jukebox brings you out of the actual game.. you don't event get the 'Ooh Yeah!' sound effect when entering the cheats.. but on the other hand, you do get to save you progress, with 3 save slots..

Sorry, this does look like a ripoff to me, considering that pretty much every game (except for Gunstar Heroes) is on the Ultimate Collection, which you can get for about the same amount of cash as all six games combined.

Lets see a next gen of Rolling Thunder, no???

Then I'll lay back and enjoy some of these cookies from http://www.eatyourcookie.com

i did not know that, i only played it when i was a younging and didn't really know how to look up codes and on my wii i got pretty far to like the arena and such and then just gave up.
