Awesome!  |
gonna go ahead and let you know the u.s. selection of saturn games SUCKS ASS.
however, the japanese version is incredible and why i got a saturn, to play burns on.
just to get PANZER DRAGOON SAGA and PRINCESS CROWN (Odin Sphere prequel) is worth it. also, the BEYOND OASIS sequel, LEGEND OF OASIS (beyond oasis is pretty much by far my favorite Genesis game, if not my favorite game of the 16-bit era, period, aside from Super Metroid and Super Turrican 2 and R2: Rendering Ranger... all incredible experiences... can't forget Gunstar Heroes!).
I just made it through RETROGAMER COLLECTION VOLUME 5. 300 pages of classic games. So awesome. I never knew for sure, but the Genesis did, in fact, "Beat" the SNES, barely, in sales. I've always thought Genesis was cooler, had MORE great games, but the SNES had 5 of the best games ever:
DEMON'S CREST
RUN SABER
SKYBLAZER
and the aformentioned turricans/r2 obviously but also: TETRIS ATTACK
and my favorite game of all time (next to XENOGEARS) SUPER METROID.
So it's really hard for me to choose. I would edge out the Genesis as a better system
for me since it has like 100 -- literally -- shmups, I jerk off to Sega, and it has the best game music ever. Streets of Rage 3 sountrack, I mean come on, it's STILL ahead of its time. Also, CONTRA HARD CORPS is the best Contra game ever. BLOODLINES is the best Castlevania game (NOT including Metroidvania style games btw). VECTORMAN, PULSEMAN, etc etc. So many clasics. Fuck.
16-bit really was the golden age of gaming.
