Renegade Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 When I mean classic I dont mean a Sonic or Zelda sort of classic, I mean a title that gradually faded away from the public eye. I was going through my Megadrive (yes because the genesis was a retarded name) carts and I dusted off my copy of Earthworm Jim. After giving it another whirl I remembered just how awesome this game is. Vivid colors, superb animation, good challenge and not to mention one of the most humorous titles of the 16 bit era.
{''({o..o})''} Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Would Shining Force count? Because of the systems the games were released on, they just kinda fell into the background after part 2.
razazteca Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 I always like playing Snow Brothers on GENS.
Ravenbomb Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Chrono Trigger count? I played that for the first time not too long ago. Great game.
The Amazing Rando Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Mutant League Hockey on Genesis... so much fun to slam guys into a spike on the side walls Quarterback Club 96 for SNES ... winning games by 100+ points was fun...
El Psycho Diablo Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Mutant League Hockey on Genesis... so much fun to slam guys into a spike on the side walls I loved that game. Too bad EA's slidden into mediocrity since then. My brother and I would never actually win the game normally..just force the other team to forfeit because we'd kill all of their players. My favorite: The Demon Net!
razazteca Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Blades of Steel on NES is the only hockey game that I ever bought new.
JHawk Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 I second Shining Force. That was a kickass series. Better than the early Final Fantasies for sure. But then it simply disappeared
Downhome Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Show some love for Comix Zone for the Genesis.
DerangedHermit Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 - the Streets of Rage series - Ristar (it's on, I believe, the Sonic Mega Collection) - Beyond Oasis/Legend of Oasis - Vectorman (there was supposed to be a PS2 sequel, but it was cancelled) - the Mutant League series And who remembers the Cool Spot game? Pretty good game for a corporate mascot.
Guest Smues Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Crystalis for NES. One of my all time favorite games, but no sequels kind of made it get forgotten. Gameboy color port was the only life it ever saw past the original and that was TERRIBLE thanks 100% in part to the music changing. Ewwww(shudder) that was a BAD port.
Youth N Asia Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Inindo: Way of the Ninja...great SNES game that recieved zero love Then there was my favorite for the Sega Master System Just a fun fun game
Downhome Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Crystalis for NES. My favorite video game of any sort...ever. I didn't mention it because so many seem to know about it.
fazzle Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Pigskin Footbrawl for the Genesis. Troll! Troll! Troll!
Guest Fook Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Boogerman Toejam and Earl Virtual Bart NBA Jam Clayfighter Taz's Escape From Mars I remember all these Genesis games being heavily loved in their heyday. Now, they're completely forgotten.
Downhome Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Boogerman Toejam and Earl Virtual Bart NBA Jam Clayfighter Taz's Escape From Mars I remember all these Genesis games being heavily loved in their heyday. Now, they're completely forgotten. Not by me, I actually played every single one of them not too long ago. I especially love Taz's Escape From Mars!
Guest FrigidSoul Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 I never got to play Boogerman. My parents refused to buy me a game that was built around flatulants and mucus...they didn't mind killing games though. Zombies Ate My Neighbors was rocking
Downhome Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Zombies Ate My Neighbors was rocking One of my top three or five multi-player non-sports games, of all time. If I had someone here with me right now and they wanted to play, I'd be up for it. I'm always up to play that game.
Guest FrigidSoul Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 I still have an SNES in the bottom dresser drawer, thing is the control is broken and the AF switch is fucked too. The system itself works fine as I tried out one of my cousins games on it, but I can't complain having bought it for $5 at a yard sale...I'll just invest another $5 into getting it up and running sometime.
Guest Goodear Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Mutant League Football owned you with Bones Jackson taking you DOOOOOWN.... There was a tv show for that game too that I can just barely remember.
Guest FrigidSoul Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 The TV show was called "Mutant League" and it had all the sports. I believe it took place in a post-apocalyptic San Fran too
Guest frowned Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Speedball 2 Shining Force 1 & 2 NBA Jam
dutchse.cx Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 I fourth Shining Force and second Shining Force II. I also toss in River City Ransom and Super Mario Brothers 3.
DerangedHermit Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Dynamite Headdy EA's ----- Strike series
Guest FrigidSoul Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 I have the first 2 Shining Force games on the comp...gotta love Emulators. I do have to say that the third installment was a major flop as for some reason they decided to fuck the US installment by leaving out 2 discs. (If you remember there was 3 main characters...in Japan each one got a disc and at the end they all came together) I'm hoping perhaps Sega will remake the 3rd one and release it on a new gen system
Guest Askewniverse Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Zillion (Sega Master System) Kid Icarus (NES) Super Punch-Out (SNES) Blaster Master (NES)
ArkhamGlobe Posted November 7, 2003 Report Posted November 7, 2003 Oh man, let's see... Cyborg Hunter (Master System) WonderBoy III (Master System) Kenseiden (Master System) Jungle Strike (Genesis) Flashback (Genesis) Streets of Rage II (Genesis) Toe Jam & Earl (Genesis) There are of course many, many more, but these are the ones that immediately popped into my head.
Renegade Posted November 7, 2003 Author Report Posted November 7, 2003 Did anyone get that music CD that came with the comix zone when it first came out Also any of the Treasure games. From Gunstar and Heddy to Guardian heroes.
