@skaarj217 The package includes a remastered version of RnR Racing with widescreen, special effects and extra background detail, as well as the SNES and Megadrive versions. Plus it has not only the original licensed songs, lyrics and all in CD quality but extra songs too like Breaking the Law. It looks and sounds fantastic. @Dandare4479

Blackthorne has the SNES version, 32x version with different graphics and extra maps and a definitive edition that adds a map and dynamic border art.

Lost Vikings has the SNES, Megadrive versions and a definitive edition that combines the best of the SNES and Megadrive versions. This also has the dynamic border art that changes depending on the stage.

On top of that, it includes a comprehensive museum with lots of art work, box art, interviews etc. And the whole thing is beautifully presented too.

For the work that's clearly gone into this, it's a bargain at $20.

Re: The Xbox Series X Launches November 10th For £449 / $499

I wonder if Sony will now come in at a lower price point or match it? With the Series S coming in at such a low price, I don't think Microsoft will be too bothered if they do. If the Series X is indeed 'The most powerful console', then a £20 to £50 price difference isn't going to really matter.

It may well be that it's the Series S that's the biggest seller for the first year or two. I know I'm getting one and I've never owned an Xbox console.
