No altered beast 😢
There’s a very good hack where you can play as Magneto in the X-Men game. Check it out if you haven’t already. He’s so op it’s a ton of fun
Excellent list, my friend.
You missed vector man and toy story
…sorry, did you call both Shining Force games an "action-adventure game"?
Honestly, I'd contest your assertion that the Mega Drive's graphics were a huge step up over the Master System's. The Master System was actually remarkably powerful for an 8-bit console, often much better-looking than games on the NES, and some of its games (like the port of Sonic the Hedgehog) looked amazingly good. On the other hand, the Mega Drive wasn't exactly cutting edge- the SNES walked all over it in terms of graphical detail (the Mega Drive's advantage was more in its performance). Seriously though, have you ever compared Phantasy Star I on the Master System with Phantasy Star II on the Mega Drive? The original is much better-looking! Like, it actually has backgrounds for the battles rather than just a blank blue grid!
Your list order shows you definitely prefer Beat-em ups to RPGs.
🤣
Phantasy Star 2 and 4 were amazing.
Landstalker has the second highest replay value on Sega.
Aladdin was a joke of a game.
Road Rash was ok but Super Hang-On>>>>>>
As an arcade purist there’s no way I could enjoy Super Street fighter 2.
It’s too damn slow.
Mortal Kombat was nice though
1-Shining Force 2
2-Landstalker
3-Shining Force
4-Phantasy Star 4
5-Sonic 3
6-Streets of Rage 2
7-Sonic 2
8-Gunstar Heroes
9-Madden 93
10-Flashback
Wow it is hard to even make a Top 10.
So many greats
Alien Storm is one of my favourites along with altered beast. Just playing those with my older brothers and mostly failing at them are some great memories for me
Thunderforce IV ? 🙂
how about fifa games ?
8:30 GOLDEN AXE !!! FINALLY FOUND THE NAME 😍😍😍😍
Whatta great list, well done OSG😊🕹
i love my md.
I like virtua cop 2 when I'm 3 Year old I play on my PC window xp.
I watched the whole video .. and I strongly missed my favorate game … golden axe 3 ….
Nice
I hate shit Sonic games
Thunder Force IV is missing 🙂
nice list
And flashback? Altered the beast? Wolverine adamantium rage?
One game I feel is kind of underrated is D&D Warriors of the Eternal Sun. I loved that game growing up. Was so terrible at it but I wish that the setting would be turned into ttrpg
Oh i like most if the games here ide swap some for castle and world of illusion, dynamite headdy, puggsy, smurfs. These are my top top nostalgia.
Gotta say, the Road Rash 2 sound track seems a little too upbeat for a game whose main purpose is to punch people off their motorcycles at high speeds
Whete is dune .mega-lomania 😭
no classic sonic ur uneducated
Streets of Rage 2 is the best. I agree.
What a list 😀
What’s the name of the game in the thumb nail omg
Comix zone kills them all for me it's just so sweet and awsome
Desert strike has to be included but it is not for some strange reason. Great game spent hours on it
did you seriously forget altered beast!??
You should have given some more information per game. You rush through them so quick and don't really say anything of substance.
Alisia dragoon anyone?…..Great game
Omg, none of of the splatterhouse games made it onto your list,
Where's Alien Soldier?
toejam and earl was an OG stoner epic
Great list, but my favourite was Mega Bomberman and I'm sad it wasnt mentioned!
Have you played castle of illusion staring Mickey mouse yet? It deserves to be in here
Mortal kombat 3 ultimate
Pit Fighter, Alisia Dragoon, the Super Monacos, Pitfall, Strider, Battletoads, Taz, Out of This World and Terminator are absolutely DOPE too!
Sidescrollers upon sidescrollers. I thought (and distantly remember) there were some pseudo-3d titles actually worth playing…
Pretty good list. I'll put series as one, like the Sonics, SOR, Golden Axes, Shinobis, etc. That way you can put other games people may not know about.
Bring back memories great list but 2 bad u didnt include Strider
Or vextorman was really good, or the desert strike series
Im surprised that ultimate mortal kombat 3 is not here
