AndrewTS Posted July 18, 2005 Report Posted July 18, 2005 Fuck all of you for not keeping around your original Genesis, SegaCD, and Sonic CD game. Y'all can go to hell. While you try to play with that tiny GameCube pad, I'll be laughing at you. Anyway, since Andrew brought up the whole quality of writing thing, 1Up > GameSpot > IGN. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't have room for a console that has about 3 games I'd still want to play, though. Both Lunars being better on PS1 really knocks the SCD's lineup for a loop. There are still gems out there, but to actually get a hold of them you need to camp out on Ebay and get really lucky. Besides Sonic, which games do you have that are worth it, BTW? You should be ashamed of using that sort of language around here, though. We discuss things like civil adults here. We're not animals like you CE people. 1up is one of the best, although they're still far from perfect. However, the feedback forums are populated with some of the biggest idiots this side of IMDb.
JN News Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 Does anyone know as to when this game is coming out? (Assuming it's coming out this month.)
Renegade Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 Seems like Pal PS2 will be getting SoR as well, so I'll be getting that.
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 11, 2005 Report Posted August 11, 2005 The game got average (5.5-6.0 range) reviews in EGM... I forget the scores as I was just skimming. Anyway, If I buy this, am I going to be totally screwed by a Gems Collection+ that will have a better menu layout and a few extra games coming out for the Xbox and PS2?

It sold like crap on X-Box (well, in the US and Japan for obvious reasons but did great in the UK) and XB's scheduled releases are tapering off. In the UK, the PS2 and X-Box versions of SMC topped sales charts, so if they don't see an X-Box SGC, we never will. The PS2 SMC+ sold great in UK and Japan, but the original SMC sold far better here on GC than the +s. There's a chance the US PS2 could get it because the PS2 still has tons of life left in it, but not for quite a while and it's not scheduled yet. I'm already importing the GC Japanese version. Ebayed it for $47.99 (SoR trilogy and a better soundtrack is worth it). I was thinking of readying my PS2 for importing because of the better controller, but it costs too much and I have an Action Replay for GC, so I'm already set (GC Action Replay lets you play imports). PS2 gamers are probably going to be darn lucky when the PS3 hits. I predict then we'll get a ton of dirt-cheap imports as budget titles, just like we did when the PS1 was entering its twilight year(s). Shadow the Hedgehog is supposed to hit all three consoles in the US, on a related note. SoA should throw in the SoR games since Shadow's getting a T and it's a little late for another Sega compilation. BTW, probably another major reason we're not getting the PS2 SGC is the price. As you probably noticed, Sega is charging full price for the other reasons, although over here we get it on GC for the "bargain" price of $29.99. SCEA probably wouldn't let them sell it for that much do the meager selection of titles (unlike MMAC and Street Fighter Anniversary Collection, which offered plenty more games/newer games, respectively). You could call that greed, but why should they bother putting out PS2 and XB versions here when the GC one will sell a heck of a lot more and they can charge a bit more too? Next week--August 16--for the US release date, BTW. It's being released in Japan today. The game got average (5.5-6.0 range) reviews in EGM... I forget the scores as I was just skimming. Most of the games are mediocre at best, so that's to be expected.
JN News Posted August 12, 2005 Report Posted August 12, 2005 Does that mean it'll be in stores on the 16th? I hope so, because I don't want to go to my local Wal-Mart and find out that they don't have it, yet.
AndrewTS Posted August 13, 2005 Report Posted August 13, 2005 Well, there's this wonderful invention called the "phone"... All "release" dates are typically the ship dates, and usually are right (especially Tuesday releases), so I expect it will be in. I'd still call to be sure, though.
