Wrestle War

Wrestling games are a dime a dozen now, but there was a time when Genesis owners had literally none to play. After teasing us with a blurb for Wrestle War in two of its pack-in posters, Sega decided against releasing the game in America. Maybe the company knew better after all, as we really weren’t missing much. Bland, generic characters and stiff gameplay made it a title to forget, and we could always play Tecmo World Wrestling on the NES. At least that one was good.

Revolution X

They say music is the weapon, and if that’s true, then Revolution X is a nuclear bomb. Dull, repetitive gameplay with some of the worst renditions of popular music you’ll hear on cartridge is rounded out by a total lack of light gun compatibility. That’s right friends, Revolution X is a shooting game that doesn’t use any of the Genesis light guns. Still feeling crazy? Think you’re livin’ on the edge? Well, that’s amazin’! Head on over to the other side then, and read our full review for all the crazy details, and hurry before I die from this hole in my soul (or before I squeeze in more Aerosmith song references).

Bulls vs. Blazers and the NBA Playoffs

The NBA season is heating up, and while today’s game is a great display of awesome athleticism, nothing compares to the great rivalries of the ’80s and ’90s, when Jordan’s Bulls locked horns with Stockton’s Utah Jazz, and Magic’s Lakers marked the high point of the post season with their battles against Bird’s Celtics. The Genesis is a great place to relive those great games, and EA’s Bulls vs. Blazers and the NBA Playoffs tweaks an already solid formula for some great gameplay.
