About half of the games contained on this Smash Pack are still fun games to play today, the rest feel too dated to be of much fun and makes me wonder why certain titles were picked. Streets Of Rage 2, Sonic The Hedgehog, Golden Ax, and Vectorman stand out as the best games on the pack. THey're still fun, not too difficult, and haven't grown boring with age. Virtua Cop 2 should also be up on that list, but since I don't have a gun its not as fun as it could be. Shining Force and Phantasy Star 2 are two decent RPG which could probably be enjoyed by a fan of the genre. The two puzzle games Columns and Sega Swirl aren't too special, but aren't really bad either. Revenge Of Shinobi seems like it would be fun if it weren't so insanely hard. Finally, Altered Beast and Wrestle War are the only two games on here that I'd classify as being terrible. I guess my only two problems with the set were that I wish some different games had been on here in place of some of the ones I didn't particularly enjoy, and that maybe a few more games should have been included to sweeten the Smash Pack. Overall, it really depends on how many of the games you like, and what you want to pay for the ones that you do like.

I do not own Sega Smash Pack For Playstation But I own it for Dreamcast let me start off by sayin the genisis games are changed none whatsoever.I was a big fan of an Extremely rare game called Altered Beast when i saw it on the package i flipped.It is excatly like its Arcade counterpart.I also Love Sonic the Hedgehog wich is also on here.The Music everything is the same.Phantasy Star 2 Is a wonderfull game that many have not played.I hve a new appreciation for Genisis now.Revenge Of Shinobi Or Shining Force ring a bell? pick this one up.Not all the games are that great but there are many that are.

Hey, now this is what I'm talking about!! The only reason I miss about my Genesis was Streets of Rage and Golden Axe, and now I can play it on my DC. The sound is a little messed up, like on Sonic, it sounds nothing like the original, but it still plays the same. I found some great games on there that I had never heard of but now love, like Shinning Force, that game is awesome, and Vurtual Cop 2. Get this if you miss your Genesis, or, if you never owned one, you might still want to look at this. By the way, to the guy commenting on Golden Axe sound, that sound is actually right from the Genesis game, it is one of the few games on the cd that they got the sound right on.
