I think this is a situation where I have to play the newest game and if I like it, work my way back. I'll never get into X or X2 at the way I am going.
As for the Sega Pack. There's some solid master-system and genesis games in it, but not much else. You're a nostalgic guy so the old games are probably making you smile

I've never really touched X or X2 myself. If I had played them back in the day (1997!) I would be much more into them but it's hard to get into them these days. Much of the goodness from those games is in X3 anyway (same Universe, same systems, same music, etc.).
Doesn't the Steam version come with any PDF manuals or anything? When I first bought X3, that was the last physical game I ever bought and it came with a super thick manual.
Remember that X and X2 came out in the late 90s/early 2000s before the trend of having any in-game button explanations or training missions really existed and would have been packaged with big physical manuals themselves.
DAMNIT! I didn't buy Albion prelude during the sale because Steam said I already owned it. Turns out I own X3: TC and the Steam interface thinks I own it.
