Honestly very cool Mega Drive compilation. Has some great games (I bought the Sonic DLC before it got delisted btw).
Pretty decent emulation quality, but it works well enough. Packed with a great amount of features, achievements, online play and the menu is awesome.

Obviously you can emulate these games yourself for free on pc. But for console players I'd say this is a great collection.

7.5/10

Definitely the weakest out of the Olympic games I've played but still a good game. I can tell they wanted to utilise the gamepad but it just falls short here as most of it boils down to "tilt the gamepad!" or "swipe the screen!!" and it's not very interesting. The controls on some minigames are also super annoying.

I really like the roster for this game, it covers pretty much most of the important characters you'd wanna see. I also really like the locations of the dream events like Green Hill Zone, Delfino Plaza, Sweet Mountain and even Speed Highway.

As for the minigames, most of my favourites are dream events. Most games are fun, but then you have ones like Curling, Hole-in-one curling and the stupid Winter Sports Champion Race.

Winter Sports Champion Race is the final boss in Legends Showdown, the game's main campaign. There are 6 areas, and the first 5 pair you up with a group of 2 Mario and 2 Sonic Characters while you compete in 4 events with a boss at the end. It's a super short campaign but it's good for the most part. The final boss however is absolute horseshit. You face off against Rouge, Dry Bowser, Eggman Nega in a Winter Sports Champion Race while you battle terrible controls all while the opponents just speed boost out of nowhere.

Overall, it's a good game, but it's not great, better off playing the other ones.
60/100

Visually, Aesthetically and Audibly this game is amazing. The levels look a bit washed of colour but then you have levels like Night Palace which look great. The whole games aesthetic of the Arabian Nights is very cool and all the levels theming is very good. The OST is amazing and is comprised of mostly vocal tracks which sometimes can get drowned out by ingame noises, but all the tracks are still great, although you do start to get sick of Seven Rings in Hand.

The gameplay on the other hand...This game has some of the worst controls in any videogame I've ever played, going backwards is a chore. Sometimes enemies just appear and blindside you, and the bosses are annoying since they don't explain enough about them so you know how to defeat them. There are certain missions that are fun and the game does get better to control while leveling up Sonic, but the game should control well from the start. Bad gameplay, but at least everything else surrounding it is incredibly good

53/100

I understand that it was Bioware's first handheld but this is so embarrassing.

The presentation of this game is awful, models look bad, sound effects are terrible, the music is especially gross.

This game acts like it wants to waste your time. The way to progress is usually confusing, attack animations take ten years to wait and watch happen and some cutscenes are super drawn out.

The actual battle part of this game is 50/50, sometimes it can be fun to pull off powerful moves, and figuring out the best team, POW moves and Chao can honestly be pretty fun. But the amount of missed attacks in the early game + the repetitive fights in the later half can get super boring

The best part of this game without a doubt is the dialogue. It's genuinely entertaining and funny sometimes, and the overall story is good too.

Too bad Ken Penders sued these guys, because I doubt we'll get another Sonic RPG which is a shame because Sonic makes a lot of sense to be in an RPG.
