Sonic Origins

Sonic Origins is a fantastic celebration of 30 years of SEGA's spiky blue mascot, offering four of the best platformers money can buy and chucking in a bunch of great extras that long-time fans can appreciate. Regardless of where the Blue Blur head next, Sonic Origins is a reminder of just how damn good these timeless classics are.

Sonic Origins takes us back to that time where it had strong competition from Nintendo's Mario Bros. This time we have four games adapted for this gen and the ability to play it with Sonic, Tails and Knuckles. This is the best way to enjoy these classics.

Sonic Collection is not only a (guess what?) collection of the first games featuring the blue hedgehog and friends cleverly remastered and with an improved gameplay, but it’s also a long platformer – if we consider the Story mode which will take us by hand through all four chapters – which I would recommend also to those who are unfamiliar with the franchise and are simply looking for a fun and fast paced game with colorful graphics and an awesome level design where there’s always something new to discover. Highly recommended both for Sonic lovers and newcomers.

Sonic Origins goes all-out in paying tribute to the iconic franchise's early years.

An exciting journey through time, Sonic Origins gets it right by including four of the most important games of the Sonic series in one collection for the new generation of consoles. Nostalgia will hit you and it's gonna be a lot of fun for those who love the most famous hedgehog in the world.

Although it is a nice homage to the first adventures of the hedgehog, Sonic Origins could have deserved a better finish. Overall, this compilation is correct, but the options offered are not enough to make up for certain shortcomings. Despite a really successful dressing with its cartoons and colorful interface, SEGA's game constantly oscillates between good and bad. We're having a good time, but for Sonic's 30th anniversary, we were right to expect more games and surprises. Especially at a price of forty euros.

As much as there are some modifications that might make the game more appealing to newer players, Sonic Origins is undoubtedly something designed for long-time fans, especially those who just want to have access to the classic games on the current platforms, without much concern for changes. If you, like me, can't even remember a time in your life when Sonic didn't exist, the collection can be a nice, if somewhat a simple, gift. For the rest of us, it might not seem interesting at all.

Many Sonic fans really downplay this collection. But really, this is still the best way to play these classic games. For casuals, this is the perfect collection to get.

A Good Remaster But Why Did You Have to Remove the OST of Sonic 3&K It makes me wanting to cry cause I can't hear out the MJ's OST for The Game basically Just Play the Game Till CD and Emulate S3&K if you want to play the Original Version.

This is a fun collection of games. I enjoyed playing through these with my friend for nostalgia
