Led by six classic Sonic The Hedgehog favorites, this collection is packed with games from iconic franchises you know and love, like Ecco the Dolphin, Streets of Rage, Golden Axe and Phantasy Star, but also contains many others you may have missed. The largest collection of classic SEGA titles available to date, these 40+ games bring classic single player and multiplayer action to life like never before as the best of the SEGA Genesis catalog is reborn on the Next-Gen stage of Xbox 360.

Classic Play Upgraded and Earning Achievements
Each title within Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection has been converted to hi-def (720p), ensuring that classic SEGA Genesis 2D style gaming never looked so good, but this collection is about more than looks. Each game will also play just as well, with original control schemes precisely matched to the intuitive and familiar controls of the Xbox 360 video gaming system. And since fun is always better when shared, multiplayer fans will enjoy the competition as they and their friends engage in 2-player classic battles in select games. Lastly all players with an Xbox LIVE membership will appreciate that their side-scrolling skill translates to the online arena via the collection's extensive set of Xbox LIVE achievements.
