ok people someone educate me Genesis/Mega Drive games
like JRPGS or strong classic platformers or something, ive always been too much of a snes dude and i want to play sega gaems
I’d recommend just giving Genesis a pass and move on to PSX
I can list you PSX games until the sun sets, baby
but those I know all about… I need new stuff!
actually yeah maybe i’ll just play the sonic games for a start
Story of Thor (AKA Beyond Oasis)
Streets of Rage 2 and 3
Earthworm Jim 1 and 2
Alien Soldier
Comix Zone
MIckey Mouse and the Castle of Illusion
Flashback
Gunstar Heroes
Dynamite Heddy
Phantasy Star IV
Soleil (AKA Crusader of Centy)
Sonic was never very good.
If you have a 360 or a PS3 then you could pick up the Sega Ultimate Mega Drive Collection.
Laboured’s list is good. The Shining series is also pretty interesting.
yeah i just remembered why i hate the sonic games… i hate the platforming and the level design! terible
Tried a bit of Story of Thor! It’s fun! Getting kinda sick of the soundtrack tho… but the fighting is fun, even if the movement and the collision boxes are wacky as they are wont to be in old games like this. Found the first summon… it’s an interesting system, but eh. Don’t know. The camera is very weird… feels like it always moves at a percentage of your movement unless you’re at the box limits? Not very comfortable, especially since i find myself running a lot and WAM monster out of nowhere right in front of me. Thankfully the game isn’t very hard. There’s also a back flip…? Haven’t figure out what the button combination is.
Mega Drive yay!

I wasn’t going to mention Aladdin because it’s a licensed game, but then they just played it on Giant Bomb so I guess that means it’s legit. I never beat it, never made it out of the cave of wonders. That statue boss is a bitch and the carpet ride after was rough.
Nina Freeman is p. cute. I saw someone say REI AYANAMI in chat and I was like come on guy, just cuz she has blue hair…
And then I looked at her twitter and saw this. Pretttttttty cool.
