  1. Yay!

    Well done in rubbing in my face how much money I could have bought it for, had I possessed the gift of waiting longer than 5secs to buy Sonic 4 or Sonic AdventureDX.

    But I still stand by my decision they are both great games, well SADX anyway XD.

  2. Why couldn’t they just sell Sonic 4 at this price initially?

    It certainly shouldn’t have cost them much to MAKE it.

  3. god i had to get 10 euros to get a psn card to buy the game and now damn it

    @C.J well one thing who said its going to be stored on disc becuase i havent heard of it yet

  4. @damnhedge

    Oh sorry mistake I ment If it was……

    I mean I assumed they……I thought that….um…..What I’m trying to say is…..

    I also thought they would the game in parts because that would give them the opportunity to make corrections or try new things in future episodes .
    Also it’s possible that they might release a full version on a disc or some kind of physical media when they are finished with the whole game. 🙂

  5. @C.J ah okay well you are right there is a chance that SEGA will put on a disc but still i think it is a downloadebel thing then

  6. I wish the Dreamcast Collection actually housed Dreamcast games and not PC ports of Gamecube remakes of Dreamcast games with the additional features removed, destroying any valid non-technical reason for using the PC version. For £3, it’s not bad, though. Sonic 4 for a fiver is definitely good.

  7. I’m still hoping for OutRun on XBLA to get a discount, if it hasn’t been taken down yet…

  8. Sonic Adventure is a lazy port. Sonic 4 is great but it does not have many new ideas; but for $10 I think it is worth it.
