Flashpoint_01.jpgThe latest Famitsu issue revealed the next volume in the Sega Ages 2500 Series for the PS2 after Panzer Dragoon. No. 28 will be called 'Tetris Collection', which has a website since today. It'll include the earliest Tetris version from Sega for the arcades (co-licensed with Taito only for the Japanese market, since Atari got the rights for the Western arcades) as well as the derivative iterations Flash Point and Bloxeed. They will be packed along with an unreleased Tetris version for the Mega Drive, some superplays, and most likely some other nice extras. These days, Sega Ages 2500 Series is well known for being, presentation-wise as well as accuracy-wise, the best 'retro' series out there (Brandon says: as opposed to the early years, when it was more of a hack job).
