VGChartz’s Evan Norris: “Video game fans don’t often arrive at a consensus on what constitutes a great game, but they do agree on a few fundamental things: value, convenience, and game preservation. Well, look no further than video game compilations, which offer all three.
This past year, Capcom Fighting Collection 2 made it so you could enjoy several legendary fighting games without booting up your Dreamcast or tracking down a dusty arcade. Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection artfully compiled multiple franchise installments, including the “WaveNet” version of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, which was previously considered lost. Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 marked the first official re-release of Super Mario Galaxy 2, which was conspicuously absent from the Super Mario 3D All-Stars collection back in 2020. And Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered offered three enhanced games for a fraction of the cost of a modern “AAA” title.”
