notes: 'This is a tribute to the runner up of the 16-Bit console war, the Sega Genesis
  (or Mega Drive). This is a collection of 39 tracks, new and old, for a console constantly
  considered full of suck. Does this album prove otherwise!?

  Huge thanks to Shawn Phase of Temp Sound Solutions for mastering the enormous collection,
  as well as Doctor Octoroc (and dog Ein) who provided the album art! Also thank you
  to all the artists on this compilation of course! You all rock! and finally thanks
  to Clov3r who created this alternate album art last minute.
