Some bits of interesting info have just been revealed regarding Vol. 25 of the Sega Ages 2500 series. Firstly, foreign versions will be included, meaning that the Western Dynamite Headdy, which changed some of the graphics, will be present in the collection along with the European version of Alien Soldier. Super plays of both Alien Soldier and Gunstar Heroes are being added, as well as an option to record your own play. Full original manual scans along with concept illustrations, original artwork and Maegawa's (Treasure's head) comments will be present. There will also be an option to neutralize the original sprite flickering, and an input lag optimization in order to make the emulations as responsive as the Mega Drive games. Unfortunately, the games will run at high resolution, although they'll support progressive scan and a fake, customizable scanlines mode much like SDI & Quartet did. Out on February 23rd.
