Okay here we have 3 compilation Saturn platform games. Which will it be: Sega Ages Mickey & Donald OR Capcom Generations 2: Chronicles of Arthur or Sonic Jam? Pick one and list your reasons why below. Remember you can still vote for which one appeals to you the most by looking at the gameplay footage in the video clips provided below if you haven't played any of them CAPCOM GENERATIONS 2: CHRONICLES OF ARTHURSEGA AGES: MICKEY & DONALDSONIC JAM

Good poll this.
Thing is the only 2 games I like out of the G&G and Disney compilations are the original Ghosts & Goblins and Quackshot, so it's Sonic Jam for me as it has a lot more content I can enjoy.

CG2 has arcade perfect ports of the first two G&G games and the SNES port of SG&G is much less laggy. However, Sonic Jam has additional content and even minor upgrades in the games. The only letdown was not having Sonic CD.

I'd love to get Capcom Generation 2 some time. I actually genuinely really enjoy the Ghosts n Goblins games, I replayed Ghouls n Ghosts on the Megadrive so many times and always had a blast with it. Mickey and Donald is a good pair of games as well. I'm not AS fond of them as GnG or Sonic, but they are high quality and polished platformers regardless, especially Castle of Illusion. If it wasn't pretty expensive I'd consider getting it as well, but right now I'm more interested in Capcom Generation 2 since it has more games that I enjoy more anyway for a cheaper price.
Sonic Jam is the only one I've actually played on Saturn, but regardless I know that there's no way it could be topped by the other compilations and I have no issue with voting for it. Sonic 3 & Knuckles is the best game out of all the games in all these compilations by far, the Saturn ports went the extra mile with new features not present in the Megadrive originals, introducing the spindash to Sonic 1 and redone sound effects for 3&K. That would of already been enough to put it leagues above the rest, but then they included Sonic World as well. Even if it's just a compilation as opposed to the Saturn exclusive Sonic game everyone wanted, the sheer amount of content and refinements here easily make this a must have for the console if you ask me, and one of the best games available for the system. Best games, best ports, best extra content.
Everything Sonic Team put out on the Saturn was such a gem, they were really on their A-game here even without Sonic Xtreme.

Sonic Jam has the Mega Drive Sonic games, the only thing its missing is Sonic CD . for me it wins by default since these are some of my favourites.

I went for Mick & Donald. Was never a big fan of the Sonic games so Sonic Jam never held my interest. The Ghouls, Goblins and Ghost collection are a little too hard for my liking but all 3 are great games. The second being my favourite. Castle of Illusion and Quackshot, I still enjoy today. I only wish World of Illusion was on that disk as well.

I grew up playing the GnG games at the arcades. They are ridiculously hard for me. I absolutely love Sonic Jam. Great collection. I am playing through all of them now. Then I'll conquer Sonic CD and get back to Sonic Mania!

I voted for Sonic Jam, despite the flawed ports, because I haven't played the other collections, and it's a great collection of the best Sonic games. But I love Ghouls N Ghosts and am keen to grab it for my Mega Drive now I have the system again. I can't believe how astronomically high the price has risen in just a few years though... Perhaps this collection would be a better idea.
