Free games are always appreciated. We are not talking about the usual weekend freebies that Steam offers for several AAA titles, though! This time, it’s a collection of games that you can play for free whenever you want with no time limits.

On Thursday, SEGA MegaDrive Classics Hub (in the US, the 16-bit console was called Genesis) will bring us no less than fifty (yep, 50!) games for free.
