Still, it's now in a state where it’s easy to recommend to newcomers. Some of Sonic 3’s original soundtrack has also had to be replaced due to licensing issues, meaning Origins Plus sadly isn’t 100% faithful to the original trilogy.
It’s improved over time with post-release patches, but something to keep in mind if you’re overly familiar with the original games. An impressive feat, but one that’s let slip through some inaccuracies and issues with emulation. Each game was rebuilt from the ground up in Sonic Team’s Retro Engine. It’s worth noting that Sonic Origins Plus isn’t quite a perfect collection, however. Maybe not quite as charming or feature-rich as Sonic Mega Collection for the Gamecube, but Origins Plus at least won't cost a fortune to buy. It’s a collection of excellent value, especially if you’re looking for the easiest way to play these classics on modern consoles, with unlockable extras and a fun mission mode to boot. Sonic Origins Plus is a compilation of the hedgehog’s earliest games, packing Sonic 1, 2, 3 & Knuckles and CD all under one roof.
