"What are the best Sega Genesis games? Ian runs down his list of favorites!"
Hmm... I'm trying to recall what all Sega Genesis games I've played (not necessarily on original hardware). A lot of it is getting mixed in with Sega CD games, which I'm not sure count...
Of the ones mentioned in this video and others that I'm looking up on Google, in no particular order, I've played:
- Sonic the Hedgehog (at my high school best friend's house, where we beat it)
- Sonic 2 (at my HS best friend's house, where we beat it)
- Shining Force (pretty sure this was on an emulator, and I'm pretty sure I beat it)
- Shining Force II (emulator, though I don't think I ever finished this one)
- Beyond Oasis (pretty sure emulator, might have been via Wii Virtual Console, honestly... didn't get very far in it)
- Castlevania: Bloodlines (definitely emulator, definitely beat it)
- Phantasy Star IV (at my HS best friend's house... I think we eventually completed it?)
- Streets of Rage (at my HS best friend's house... pretty sure we beat it)
- Comix Zone (on a PC emulator and also on Wii VC, but never got very far as I didn't really care for it all that much)
- Altered Beast (emulator, maybe a rental at my HS best friend's house, much preferred the original arcade version)
- Golden Axe (at HS best friend's house, emulator, Wii VC... I think I've beaten it? Preferred arcade.)
- Michael Jackson's Moonwalker (emulator, didn't get too far into it, played it mostly for the basic novelty of it at the time, also preferred the [emulated] arcade version, but never got too far into that either)
- The Lion King (at HS best friend's house, got pretty far, but the platforming was too difficult to beat it, the music was great though)
- Ecco the Dolphin and Ecco: The Tides of Time (played these on emulator and Wii VC years later and never finished them, the only one I ever actually legit beat on original hardware was Ecco CD at my HS best friend's house)
- Jurassic Park (never got far, mostly played it when my HS best friend rented it, due to the novelty of it being different from the SNES version [which I actually owned for SNES and did beat])
- Some of the Shinobi games, though I don't recall which ones, off hand... the one with Spider-Man, maybe? I do recall playing a lot of the arcade Shinobi, though.
