the thread on re5 caused me to reminisce on the first consoles I ever owned which were of course the original Sega Megadrive and Sega Megadrive II Everyone here must have owned one or at the very least had a sibling who had one. What stunning machine they were, naturally they lacked the amazing graphics of modern consoles but the games were so memorable and fun to play. How can you forget the classics : Goldenaxe Streets of Rage Revenge of Shinobi Sonic The Lion King World Cup Italia '90 ah...happy times :) |

streets of rage 3 is still worth loads, you see it selling for about £40 on ebay. |

I only had the first one, it was such a great game. Wandering around picking up steel pipes and beating up punks :) and if you pressed the [A] button everyone would freeze and the feds would come to back you up with a long distance shot from a bazooka mounted on a police car, ludicrous! haha |

Megadrive, man that's gay. Genesis 4 life! Great system, I remember when I was like 10 all the cool kids in the schoolyard were all about Sega because they allowed blood in their games, Nintendo was considered ''kiddie''. The more things change, the more they stay the same. ABACABB. Streets of Rage was great, part 3 had a visionary soundtrack, it's like IDM or something. My all-time favorite Genesis games was Thunder Force 4/Lightening (sic) Force, still the best shooter ever with the best soundtrack, and NHL '94. |

I'd say that "Goldenaxe" and "Sonic" are just amazing. I all so liked "Street of Rage" |
||||||||
|

my most/least favourite game was cyborg justice, so frustrating but fun :) |

I remember The Lion King. It was really fun back in the day, especially level 6...It goot too hard for me once you grow into adulthood, however! |

Goldenaxe was IMHO one of the grestest games ever made, so simple yet so fascinatingly fun to play and the music and everything was so good. I loved the special magic, especially the dwarf/woman (I forget which) being able to call down a huge fire-breathing Dragon that took up the whole screen for a split second if you collected enough magic pots. I never completed It though, the last boss was so good and of course back in those days it was impossible to save games-meh kids nowdays take it for granted. I did complete Streets of Rage though :) |

also a classic, I'd forgotten that one :D |

I played Ariel the Little Mermaid a while ago with my friend's Sega :) It was tough. She kept dying. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

I used to love Mickey Mouse's Castle Of Illusion too |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
golden axe is great! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

oh yeah!! wow that was so great haha he didnt look anything like Mickey Mouse though, more like a little baby. Aww its all coming back to me now, the storyline at the beginng was so cute when they're in love and suddenly the evil witch grabs minnie lol. There was another Mickey Mouse game that was better but I can't remember for the life of me what it was, and also there was Donald Duck's Quack Attack which was a great game hehe collect the chilli peppers till her cracked and went psycho. vcxz : Ariel was not a good game from what I remember. When sega games were good they were awesome but when they were bad... |

All the main Roms are here so you can play them on your computer. The site is a bit slow + it is a pain to D/L one at a time. Enjoy |

Personally I am a fan of any 80's games with ninjas in. Ninjas are well cool. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Revenge of Shinobi was a good ninja game, incredibly hard though. I don't think got above level 2 even.. Then again I was only about 10 at the time |

I don't have a clue about classic Sega games, but... go for it! Only 4 points left!! |

this is not about points my katharsical friend, it is about remembering fondly the past and what was...a time when I was still in primary school and didn't even know what a clitoris was...a time when beckoning Universities seemed decades off and a time when I thought al-qaeda was a flavour of Um-Bungo juice drink. ah, it's good to remember the past. 3 to go... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ha! Clitoris... (I got to know what vulva [in english of course] is like 5 months ago) (Btw: d/l the new version of the mega hit "Souvenir of China" available on "Jarre in China " DVD, improved, better, aaaahhh!) |

Quack Attack was a 3D game, you moron. Quackshot for the Genesis was fucking amazing, though. |
||||||||
|

|

Oh, and Mickey Mania ruled as well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

ha, i used to have a genesis, (in australia tho, theyre called megadrives, or mastersystems?.. oh well). so many games i havent heard about, However, quackshot, is brilliant. i dunno if its cos i grew up with it or cos it really is a great game, but i love it! |

Mega Drive was the bomb. Ecco the dolphin always transfixed me, it was the gaming equivalent of Eno, as a kid, it seemed so lonely and the soundtrack so eerie. I don't want to play the rom now because I want to keep that childhood ignorance. I occasionally pull it out though and bash out a bit of sonic... 3 was perhaps my favourite, or 2... Oh the funnest multiplayer was Micro Machines, that rocked hard as fuck. |

Jack, I have Secret of Mana boxed with everything there for the SNES which I saw going for a pretty penny on eBay once :] |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
master system was the sega 8-bit system that competed with NES it was so much better i cant believe it failed |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a SNES box intact?! you've done well there! |
||||||||
|
|

Actually I inherited it from a former resident of one of my flats :D She left behind one of those scope things as well and a few other games -- bonus! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha :) my mate's just got the scope for his SNES as well! he's mad about computer consoles, he's got so many! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahaha cyborg justice was great! i used to love sawing robots and watching the nuts and bolts fly ;) I will always love the soundtrack to Sonic 1, btw. I remember when I went to Toys R Us on my birthday to get a new game console, I wanted SNES because my friends had it, but I ended up getting genesis because for the same price as SNES with no games, sega had sonic. I don't regret getting sega though. :) |

||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|

Ghostbusters for Genesis |

Genesis is tied with ps2 as my most frequently played console. Hands down, super street fighter 2 gets the most playtime; unhealthy ammounts of playtime. In fact, I wonder if I have clocked more hours in on this game than anyone else on earth. Seriously. 2nd most played game is road rash 2.. a fantastic game just as non-linear as super street fighter. I must have the 6 button controller when playing super street fighter. rocket knight adventures is a rarely mentioned game I think deserves attention. It's kind of a bite sized cute game but very simply good imo. I think streets of rage is over rated. tmnt 3 turtles in time is somewhat similar. splatter house 3 is a rare game that sells for a lot on ebay still.. it's pretty good but not THAT good. toejam and earl 1 is really a humorous piece of art but takes a long time to try and beat in one session (and can be frustrating and can eventually get boring. the humor and music are ace though). kid chameleon is fantastic. I remembered liking phantasy star games but bought #2 recently and the pace is quite slow and it's much simpler than I remembered, though still nice. My favorite role playing game was shining force (maybe not genesis). I think it was on dreamcast's smash pack or something. sonics were fun at first but now I can't enjoy them nearly as much. Sonic spinball is very fun and pretty much the PERFECT difficulty level for me. Also put sonic1 in the sonic/knuckles cart and put in whatever code for a fantastic puzzle game of seemingly infinite length (the blue sphere collecting games that get very difficult). toejam and earl 2 has very very good music; the game is pretty good but I couldn't get into it much. I liked golden axe 2 much better than 1. general chaos sells expensive and I can't figure out why (rare I guess); that game is total shit (as well as pirates of the carribean). |

Yeah, I played that game. It was unique but I also felt it was frustrating and I never finished it. The most similar game to it (I think it's better too) is "out of this world"; very unique artistic game but also gets frustrating eventually. |
