Mega Drive Ultimate Collection announced – Sega love money, we love Sega

Sega have dropped the news that they’ll be releasing a game compilation containing more than 40 Mega Drive classics.

The inventively named SEGA Mega Drive Ultimate Collection is set to drop in Spring 09 (between the end of march and the end of June), and will be arriving to Playstation 3 and 360.

Sega may be a small fry when lined up against today’s big publishers, but they once ruled the roost – their games were good, and their consoles managed to stand up against Nintendo’s best offerings.

Sega promises 720P, multiplayer (on selected games) and trophy and achievement support – which will probably be very effective at extending the life the games.

No mention as to whether this will be made available as a download from the PSN or XBLA – but personally I really hope to see this.

I’ve included the game list after the break (with handy wikipedia links), and you may be surprised by the quality titles included – this is among the best offerings seen in a compilation. Unlockable games have been hinted at and hopefully we’ll receive a list of those soon, but as far as I’m concerned, Comix Zone, Columns and the massive array of Sonic games already make this a must buy. 

LittleBigPlanet – Full Trophy List Revealed

So I’m getting pretty anxious as LittleBigPlanet gets closer to a release date, and I’m beginning to think Fallout 3 should be sweating a little too – I only approve expenditure for one video game each payday.

I’m sure you’re not here to listen to my inner turmoil, here is something you are probably a little more into – The complete trophy list for LittleBigPlanet, and let me tell you, it’s a good thing this game looks so addictive because some of these trophies look like they’ll take a nice chunk of time to achieve.
