Moving away from the jaw-dropping world of 'Sonic Jam', we come closer to the retro aspect.

To me, this was better even than poorly devised Sonic 3D and its horrible isometric hell (my poor, innocent eyesight T-T) and the 3D world of 'Sonic Jam' itself certainly went forward into becoming the Adventure Fields of sonic's first Dreamcast outing, and even triggered the idea of 'Mission Mode' in the Gamecube re-release. Fans rejoiced and went all-out in trying to complete the few missions available in that world. It had media from America and Japan, pictures, movies, music, all by the brimming bucket-full and access to these was the adventure field-esquire 3-dimensional world that introduced how pointy a rendered 'hog can really be, and saw Tails flying mindlessly around and around and around. But none of these come close to the Sonic Team masterpiece that is 'Sonic Jam' on the SEGA Saturn. People have by now played on 'Sonic Mega Collection' on the Gamecube (and 'Mega Collection +' on the PS2 and Xbox), and compilations of Sonic games aren't uncommon (S&K pack for the PC 'Sonic', 'Eccho' and 'Golden Axe' on the GBA Sonic classics collection on the Genesis etc) and many fans are highly anticipating the soon to be released 'Sonic Gems Collection', with its amazing line up of games that fans have been dying to master with their next-gen controllers, headlining as the 'gem' of the compilation is certainly 'Sonic CD', the blue hedgehog's greatest outing in a 2D aspect.
