Autism time but the Sonic Mega Collection does NOT look this bad. Yes it’s smooth but also since it’s locked to 480i it looked pretty composite on all systems of the day anyway, so bilinear wasn’t such a big deal.

I actually think I’m mixing up my memory with the ultimate collection on HD era consoles and I think it was also optional. Hey not my fault sega released sonc like 50 billion times.
Anyway i choose to believe my lies cos misinformation is fun

I’m cancelling you for this one. May all your pixels be fractionally scaled
(I know it’s a badpost but) Comrade, you are telling lies! Not that I think fuckin Sonic Mega Collection needs defending but uhhhh Mao said post.
So I looked at the Gamecube version (smallest disc size, I assume) in Dolphin, and lo and behold:
Where’s all that “bilinear you can’t turn off”?
I have screencaps of the Xbox version running on a real console too but the lying bearsite prevents me from uploading them.

The Sonic you can play now has broken physics compared to the originals.
Which ones that I haven’t kept track. I have an actual mega drive so I can play my preferred 50hz PAL version I have the nostalgia for
Sonic Origins and the mobile ports are all different. There’s something fundamentally wrong with them.
One way to test this, fire up Sonic 1 and try jumping in the same frame you land like in the original and there is a pause.
Don’t make me go fire up my PS3 about it…
The 7th gen Backbone ports do seem to be the runt of the litter…
EDIT: This oldass article says you might be right
