As expected, Sega has announced The Dreamcast Collection for the Xbox 360 and Windows PC. Sonic Adventure, Crazy Taxi, SEGA Bass Fishing, and Space Channel 5: Part 2 will be included.
“The Dreamcast console is still remembered as a pioneering console for online gaming,” commented Gary Knight, VP of Marketing at SEGA of America and SEGA Europe “We are delighted to be able to offer to our large community of dedicated fans a collection such as Dreamcast Collection for them to enjoy old favorites on this Xbox 360 and Windows PC.”
These titles are already or will be available on Xbox Live Arcade separately, and include enhanced graphics as well as achievements and online leaderboards. The Dreamcast Collection hits North American retail on February 22, 2011.
I have to say this is kind of lame. The Genesis Collection had dozens of great games, but the only thing worthwhile in this package is Space Channel 5. Where’s Sonic Adventure 2? Or a million other great Dreamcast games they could have included?
