>>738739892 Tiny toons busters big adventure, ecco, two crude dudes, earthworm jim, streets of rage, road rash, and I had some space game called spaceflight or something I could never figure out and the book was too thick to want to read.
>>738739892 the only correct answer is Phantasy Star 4.
Honorable Mentions: Shadowrun Shining Force 2 Streets of Rage Streets of Rage 2 Streets of Rage 3
Aladdin Arcus Odyssey Battletoads Battletoads & Double Dragon: The Ultimate Team Beavis and Butt-Head Beyond Oasis Comix Zone Desert Strike Dungeons & Dragons: Warriors of the Eternal Sun Earthworm Jim Earthworm Jim 2 Ecco Jr Ecco: The Dolphin Ecco: The Tides of Time Fatal Labyrinth Gemfire General Chaos Golden Axe I Golden Axe II Golden Axe III Gunstar Heroes Jungle Strike Landstalker: The Treasures of King Nole The Ooze Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures Phantasy Star II Pirates!

>>738744592 Yeah, I like the first game's chapter structure more, I didn't feel like the world map in 2 added much to the experience and perhaps even detracted. I had both as a kid but my nostalgia for the first is stronger.
Shadowrun, with Toe Jam and Earl in second (played it with my brother all the time). I have never beat Phantasy Star 4 or Shining Force 2 but I will sooner or later.
>>738739892 Either Gunstar Heroes, Contra Hard Corps or Rocket Knight Adventures. I keep changing my mind on which one's #1, but those are indisputably my top 3.
>>738749205 He's right though, that may as well have just been a wikipedia article of the Genesis library game list. Listing a couple games with a note about what you appreciated about each one would be many times more useful as a contribution
>>738749496 no hes not. stop fucking shaking on the top of the yellow tube slide and slide or get the fuck out of the way pussy stop living your life needing everything maximum security and optimization fucking SLIDE
in the time you both wrote your stupid messages and spent time thinking about how upset you were, you couldve just tried 1-2 games and see if you were interested. fuck you could look up google images of them. you could paste the fucking list into chatgpt and have it do it for you
you have the entire fucking assortment of human knowledge at your fingertips with a babelfish and an artificial intelligence to help you and youd rather just sit in your fucking hello kitty gamer chair and complain instead of just finding the solution you want yourself.
>>738742976 This game is truly better than sonic but too bad it never got half as popular. I think the only thing to dislike is how fucked the usa version's difficulty was, but now you can just play patched Japan roms that don't cut out the story too!

These are all awful games and you're missing SO FUCKING MANY good ones jesus christ man. Where the fuck is Hard Corps? Thunder Force IV? Shinobi 3? Rocket Knight? Monster World 3 and 4? Alien Soldier? Soleil? Bloodlines? Flashback?
For fucks sake mate you don't have even the basics in there.
>>738749802 I've played most of the games on your list, I'm old. By your own logic, someone could just look up the list of Genesis games themselves and thus your original list was also spoonfeeding. If you are going to make forum posts, make them useful, share something about how you relate to said things, EXPRESS something. You have a soul, don't you?
>>738739892 desuwa? are you a woman >>738742172 Ranger X is based as fuck. I need to replay Alisia Dragoon, loved it as a kid but I haven't played it since
>>738750540 why would i comment on things i havent played thats fucking dumb
also you know nothing about games if you think those are awful go play horse osamume or whatever pedo shit you like instead castlevanias are fucking terrible too and are clunky as all fuck like controlling movement with your elbow instead of your hand. fucking excel spreadsheet controls
>someone could just look up the list of Genesis games themselves then fucking do it and go play madden 97 or whatever the fuck telling you how to feel about art ruins the fucking point of the art
>>738751082 >castlevanias are fucking terrible too and are clunky as all fuck like controlling movement with your elbow instead of your hand. fucking excel spreadsheet controls kys
>modern gaming sucks ass >thousands of games from the past to choose from >anyways here's the most suck ass console with the most suck ass games Why is every single one of these threads like this
>>738752562 I love these games but I have no fucking idea how I beat some of them i beat comix zone when I was little, I couldn't get past stage 2 as an adult
>>738750540 do not disrespect the golden axe trilogy (yes all three) and PSII near me ever again okay yeah the dungeons are total bullshit in PSII because the dev team were too nice to rein in the newbie that mapped them out, but the rest is so FUCKING kino that it's a great experience even "cheating" the dungeons with maps
>>738752971 i still don't know how the fuck you're supposed to map out the PSII dungeons. it wasn't that hard in the first game since it's obviously a grid.
>>738752962 Same. Contra Hard Corps was my first videogame ever. I could do no damage+no upgrades runs when I was 7 years old. Everytime I try to replay it now I barely make it to stage 3
>>738752971 >because the dev team were too nice to rein in the newbie that mapped them out Sounds like an interesting story, is there any reading material on that?
>>738739892 Hard to say. So far probably Super Hydlide. It's not a system I'm played tons of stuff on. Just finished Vermillion on it today, that was an interesting game. Super Hydlide was genuinely great though. Shining series looks pretty neat, definitely interested in checking it out, same with Phantasy Star.
>>738739892 I played really few Genesis games so far to claim an early favorite, but after playing Toejan & Earl for a day I can see why people nowadays try chasing the roguelike clout
>>738739892 im not familiar with the base genesis library but recently ive been checking out the sega cd library. silpheed is my favorite so far, it's a joy to play
>>738754658 the saturn/ps1 version replaces a lot of the art with some horrible looking pre-rendered shit AND also replaces the music. the Sega CD version also has the best score.
>>738754743 Thanks. That's unfortunate because I saw it for a decent price and I like to play on original hardware if I can. I'll emulate Sega CD in that case.
While I have you, how's the Policenauts Saturn version?
>>738754934 i never checked out policenauts but it's apparently the best version, yeah https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeUbRd3eIeY the genesis OST is so well made, it barely sounds like FM at times. it's weird that they put so much effort into this port and didn't release it in japan.
>>738755102 >it's weird that they put so much effort into this port and didn't release it in japan. Because the Sega CD version is the PC-Engine CD version with minor tweaks and that platform was much more relevant in Japan.
>>738755636 there's more to it than that though. the game's 3rd act is expanded (it was pretty much just a big cutscene in the PCE version), a lot of the art was redrawn and it mostly looks better, etc.
>>738755893 nah give me that SNES if he HD PS1 OST. Also Mega CD versions of SMT1 are dirt cheap, saw them for fuck all in Akiha last month. https://youtu.be/D-pGTDOIPac
>>738739892 I like MUSHA and Sonic 2 a lot. But my favorite is Snatcher, and I'm a gameplay first kind of player. The presentation, sound, and vibe from Snatcher is indescribably sovlful that I can ignore the unwieldy shooting sections. The point and click stuff works fine since you're doing detective work.
>>738742976 I once played this game high on pain meds (I had surgery the prior day), and I was playing it during the withdrawal phase... amazing. I remember seeing that fucking cat and thinking this game was so visually cool and fun. Headjob never gets boring. It's almost a perfect game.
>>738750659 My Kega fusion fucked up and couldn't save so I accidentally played the first chapter 3 times in a row and got my progress wiped. It's a cool game but I'm taking a little break after re-downloading the emulator and making sure nothing is wrong, lol.
I'll try list some stuff that hasn't been mentioned already Twinkle Tale Pulseman Chiki Chiki Boys Rolling Thunder 2 and 3 (better than Sunset Riders but has the same gameplay) Mercs Blades of Vengeance McDonald's Treasure Land Adventure (better than it has any right to be) Desert Strike Granada (Overclock it with your emulator and it plays as good as the x68k original) Steel Empire Chelnov High Seas Havoc (Under-rated platformer) Marvel Land Crude Buster Galahad (Originally "Leander" on the amiga)
Mega CD games: Lunar (Make sure you play the jap version or at the very least the un-working designed patch) Popful Mail (As above) Final Fight CD (I think it's a crap game but it's a good port and everyone except me loves it, so i've included it) Denin Aleste Android Assault Vay (Same as Lunar/Popful Mail) Keio Flying Squad Lords of Thunder
32x Blackthorne (Best version of this cinematic platformer)
>>738758983 Oh cool. Another meaningless wall of text that blends together. None of these names will bear significance. Might as well draw out of a hat.
>>738762541 Bad Omen/Devilish has a very underrated ost as well https://youtu.be/R5R1yT1Al7s It's the first soundtrack that got me into hitoshi sakimotos work
>>738765868 Honestly, the remixed story in SSSComplete is kinda ass. If it had been done today instead of back then, we'd all be complaining it was dumbed-down shit for games journalists. Plays better than OG though, though not by that much.
>>738739892 I don't know what's my favourite, but I can give a top 10.
Gaining Ground. Comix Zone Light Crusader Contra HardCops Beyond Oasis Phantasy Star IV Tougi-Ou King Colossus (I finished this last week) Gunstar Heroes General Chaos Zombies Ate My Neighbors
>>738767364 If you want a better game Do the game gear original as that genesis version is a sloppy retooling only good thing is the music like that anon posted
>>738762359 It's crap. The only good thing about it is the animation. The level design/gameplay/controls are rubbish. Same with earthworm jim and every other game Dave Perry made.
