Sonic Colors wasn't a bad game, but I definitely didn't enjoy it enough to want to play it again, let alone buy it again.
As for Sonic Origins, not bad. The 4 best Sonic games ever made in one collection. Of course I'm the idiot who not only owns the originals, but has bought every single Sonic collection that has ever come out (to my knowledge). I have no idea why. I doubt I'll buy this though. Christian Whitehead's Sonic CD was definitely my favorite version of that game. I wonder which version this collection will have. Be nice if it also has his version of Sonic 1 and 2. Sonic 3+K has been inexplicably left out of collections, so glad to see it will be in this one. The community modified ROM Sonic 3C would be the best option, but of course Sega is not gonna use that version.
