Sonic Mega Collection Plus
Sonic Mega Collection Plus is a remake of Sonic Mega Collection for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox consoles. A PC version was also released in Europe. This edition includes the addition of six Game Gear games, the two games that were included in the Japanese version only (The Ooze and Comix Zone), new artwork and movies, a new in-game menu, and a mid-game saving feature. It is, however, missing six Sonic Game Gear games that were included (along with the six included in this collection) in Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut. It is the first Sonic game with a 12+ PEGI rating.
Publisher: Sega
Features
The following Game Gear games were added:
Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic Chaos
Sonic Drift (the first game to be released in Europe and North America)
Sonic Labyrinth
Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine
Sonic Blast
The PS2 version, however, suffered from a few minor emulation issues. Sound effects in the first Sonic the Hedgehog would sometimes be delayed, the music volume was incorrect in some games, and the screen resolution in both the PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions differed from the Mega Drive originals (this was a normal feature, however). These emulation issues were caused by Sonic Team's somewhat lacking experience developing for the PS2. The Sonic CD introduction and ending, as well as the preview videos for Sonic Adventure 2: Battle and Sonic Advance 2 from the GameCube version, were swapped with Sonic Heroes movies (all of which appear in Sonic Heroes). The Xbox version does not have the Korean Sonic Heroes boxart.
