What is wrong with you people? It doesn't have this, it doesn't have that... bla bla bla... What no KILLING IS MY... shut up! You probably have the real albums anyway, no? Yeah, so whats your problem? The CD has what it has, get the real friggin albums. Theres no pleasing you as***les I swear to GOD!



Check out the brand new HITS package that just came out, maybe it has what you're looking for.

Me personally, I like this hits package better because it has the few tracks that I don't have on other discs. Like USE THE MAN. I basically only wanted that one but I don't like CRYPTIC WRITINGS so I bought this instead. I didn't sit there and bitch because CRYPTIC WRITINGS doesn't have TRAIN OF CONSEQUENSES on it. Get a purpose, jerks.



By the way, this one is out of print so you have to buy it used."

"This album may be lacking great songs,like WAKE UP DEAD for an example.But,there is something at the end of the album- a secret track! To find it, play through the last track. The track is a medley of songs from previous albums. The songs that make up the track are (in order) PEACE SELLS,ANARCHY IN THE U.K.,HOLY WARS,HANGAR 18,SYMPHONY OF DESTRUCTION,SWEATING BULLETS,TRAIN OF CONSEQUENCES,GO TO H**L,ANGRY AGAIN,TRUST,ALMOST HONEST,and CRUSH 'EM. makes you want it more, doesn't it?"

Great Sound but no "Foreclosure of a Dream?"

"I'll admit that I first became a fan after listening to their "Countdown To Extinction" album which I really enjoyed but I'd also have to admit that it's commercial too. I guess purists would say the same thing about Metalica's "Black" and Whitesnake's "1987" etc but I guess these guys have got to make money too.



I liked the sound quality of this disc although I must admit that this is not truly representative of Megadeth's entire life's work but that's okay as there are other discs like that out there for the purists. As for me, one who liked their "commercial" stuff and as a guitarist, especially Marty Friedman's shredwork and heck Dave Mustaine ain't too bad a player himself, this is a good enough cd for 3 stars.



The songs are quite good and "Crush 'Em" and "Peace Sells" are excellent tracks but I was left feeling that the band must have had more to them then just these 14 tracks.



Someday, I'll get the remastered "Countdown..." to remind me why I liked them in the first place."
