    Yeah, i saw it in an EBgame last week-end. i was surprised to see it here, and really happy. the best part is that it cost 19.99$! yeah! Now we just need the phantasy star collection, and the other tittles of the sega classic series. :D

    I bought this game earlier today. Some of the remakes are of questionable quality but to get 10 on one disc for only $29.99 CDN is a pretty good deal. The Virtua Racing on it more than makes up for that Time Warner one I bought back in the day for Saturn.

    I got the original Sega Ages 2500 Vol.8 Virtua Racing Flat Out instead. Don't want any of the other games in the US pack (well maybe Out Run). Virtua Racing is very fun, like it was on the arcades. But it's just me, or there's no engine sound? i barely noticed the engine, only the spark noises and the tire noise when drifting (that gets annoying after some time). Does the US version has better sound? (Asking if the car engine is more present)

    Also, does the main menu have a music playing? Because on the Japanese version the only sound that appears before pressing start, is when the VR letters show up.

    Anyway, it's the best console port around, so if you like Virtua Racing, you all should get it.

    it seems these are just shitty budget games. Why didn't their either release the real versions or put more time into these?

    No. Fighters Megamix and Dragon Force will still be released in Japan. So, don't expect a US version soon.

    I got the chance to test this today. I already had Virtua Racing, but now i can talk about the others. Virtua Racing is by far the best game on the pack. Alien Syndrome, Space Harrier and Out Run (although this one looks terrible compared to Out Run 2). Golden Axe is terrible and unplayable (not exagerating!). Don't care about the rest really.

    Anyway, for what i read, it's been sold in USA for 15 dollars. That is worth Virtua Racing and Alien Syndrome. Consider the rest as bonuses
