Most of the SEGA games on Steam are only 49p each including titles like Streets of Rage 1,2,3, Wonder Boy titles, Golden Axe & Shinobi etc
Good if you dont want the full collection, which you can buy for £11.99 if you choose.

I remember getting the Mega Drive for Christmas, then the Mega CD...futuristic technology!
...Then I got a PlayStation and that was that. Remember my mate at the time had a chipped one and had a dodgy copy of Resident Evil 3 which stopped working at a critical moment, unlucky!

I don't know how old you are, but I'm getting on a bit and I've bought and owned literally hundreds of retail priced console games over the last quarter of a century, so for me, downloading old rom files of my games is legal because I own the cartridge/tape/disc originals.
For those that don't own them though, I believe these titles should be archived and free to play like a public library, and by the lack of court threats by all game producers besides Nintendo over GameCube and Wii titles, I don't think Sega could care less if someone has a hankering to play Sunset Riders or Hellfire should they wish.
Also, some old games and machines are near impossible to find, so would you prefer they get lost in the annals of history or get enjoyed?
There are only 5 packs for 1.37 each making 6.85 so wouldn't advice buying the whole collection for 11.99. great price heat added

I feel like the packs don't have the sonic games and I haven't checked but there may be others. So the 11.99 might still be preferable.

The packs don't include any of the Sonic or ToeJam & Earl games, so this is what the full collection has that you won't get by buying the packs -
Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Sonic the Hedgehog 3D and Knuckles
Sonic the Hedgehog 3D Blast/Flickie's Island
Sonic Spinball
Sonic CD
Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine
ToeJam & Earl
ToeJam & Earl in Panic on Funkotron
Of course you can buy them all separately, but they're all £1.99 (sale price) so the full collection will save you about £13 over buying the packs and then the above games individually.
Unless you're not bothered about ToeJam & Earl, in which case get the separate packs and then get all the Sonic games from the Humble Bundle because for $10 you'll get all of those (assuming Spinball and Sonic & Knuckles are added tomorrow) plus all the other Sonic games available on Steam.

remember its highly likely the sonic games will unlock tomorrow from the sonic humble middle tier(assuming you bought it last week) which is why i held off these megadrive ones till then.

Just download an emulator and all the roms for free.
Sega doesn't care and most of the companies that made the games don't even exist anymore, so they're not losing out.

I find it a bit much that my intel i5 2.20ghz 8gb, a usually pretty capable laptop struggles badly to run the sega hub. I would buy games for it if I could get it to run better, Like Gunstar Heroes, a game I sold on Ebay recently for £65.
