I knew about some of these, but I am relatively surprised by the Panzer Dragoon port. I had no idea that existed.

I had Sonic 3d blast, Sonic R, and the S3&K collection on the PC as a kid. I'd like to say that I had a good childhood because of this, but there's this persistent feeling of emptiness in my heart because I never got to play Sonic & Garfield on the PC.  |

Funfact: A lot of the SEGA PC ports are what they used to make several future console ports as the original Saturn versions were too complicated to port to anything else effectively. So in like Sonic Gems Collection on PS2 they used the PC ports of Sonic CD and Sonic R, and in Panzer Dragoon Orta on Xbox where you can unlock the original Panzer Dragoon they also ported the PC version.

That's also the reason why you only ever see ports of the first Panzer Dragoon (Xbox and PS2 port), while Zwei and Saga go completely ignored. LGR had already showed PC Panzer Dragoon in the review of the Diamond Edge GPU: I played a bit of this Panzer Dragoon port in the early 2000s: Sega used a demo of it to advertise PD Orta; the game ended after the second level, then you got to watch an Orta trailer. |

What I don't like is that some of the mobile versions save on your internal storage only, I wish they would save on the Mini SD Card as well, but only some of them do. It is hard to collect Sega games for mobile for that reason.
