Very nicely put points. Sad to see that even after so many blunders-overly complicating the design of Saturn, not putting a 2nd Analog in DC joypad, creating a few lemons in Sonic franchise for 6th and 7th gen, Sega refuses to learn.
I watched the documentary on the console wars. Japanese offices were stubborn and knowingly jealous of how Sega of America ran things. That's the root of the issues.
Those are some nicely put points, Sonic Origins seems like a decent way to play the 4 classic games, but there are THREE major factors that make this a dealbreaker to me: First up is the Michael Jackson music for Sonic 3, it is all absent, even the music for Carnival Night, Ice Cap, and Launch Base. The replacement music just sounds really, really bad! (It's like nails on a chalkboard) The Second factor is the lives system has been replaced with coins in the Widescreen Modes, which removes all the challenge from these games, the coins just make all of this TOO EASY!! The Third One is Denuvo on PC, which can make the entire collection UNPLAYABLE!!! Sonic 1 Forever Sonic 2 Absolute Sonic 3 A.I.R. (With all the MJ music along with a couple of tracks from the past Sonic games) Sonic CD Restored & Knuckles Are still the definitive ways to play these titles. Why pay 40 bucks for this collection? I don't see the point when the MJ music is absent, you can't get Game Overs in Widescreen Mode, and Denuvo. Might get this on Nintendo Switch, but only on a DEEP discount.
I can't believe they have been unable to get the rights to the MJ songs. So bad. I have toyed with the idea of picking it up for switch too. But I just cannot justify the cost. Probably be some time before it's heavily discounted as well.
if they did not cancel sonic x treme the sonic games could have been very different, also at least they should have put some game gear games like sonic 1 and sonic 2 game gear versions and sonic chaos and sonic triple trouble on sonic origins
For the amount they were charging for this it should have had at least 10 retro sonic titles on in my opinion! At the very least sonic CD. Thats the hardest one to play in terms of places its been ported and I think its the best one!

Couldn't agree more!

Completely agree, I'm not buying it. I love Sonic but theres no need for the extra packs
It's frustrating isn't it.
Facts im telling people 40$ for the same games we played for over 30 years?
It's madness isn't it!
it’s not the same game it’s remastered with plenty bonus content the gameplay won’t even be the same as the original
@@thomaslee2558 you don't honestly believe that do you? It's going to be EXACTLY the same just with a fresh coat of paint.
Also as it shows in the video, the bonus content is locked behind paywalls.
Sega missed the opportunity to remaster Sonic Aventure 1/2/Heroes, or maybe a remaster of the Sonic Advance. People are tired of those same old games.
