The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Crossovers can be hit or miss. Few of them are great, and even fewer are successful enough to warrant merchandizing. Dark Horse’s Robocop vs. Terminator comic was one that not only brought together two of Hollywood’s most beloved action franchises, but it did it so well that it became an instant classic. Video games were commissioned, and the Genesis got a version that’s as long as it is brutally hard. This one’s not for the squeamish or the easily frustrated, so which one are you?
Long before Hulk Hogan joined them, the American Gladiators were crushing and slamming their way into a nation’s conciousness. The program was one of the first of its type in the U.S. and paved the way for shows like Most Extreme Elimination Challenge and Ninja Warrior to become popular stateside. Such a popular show obviously spawned several video game renditions, and the Genesis version barely managed to fight its way up from the pool of suck where many of them festered… barely.
Electronic Arts set a benchmark with the debut of its stellar hockey series NHL Hockey. So successful has it been that the franchise still continues strong to this day, almost twenty years after its debut. You have to start somewhere though, and that’s why we have a full review of the game that started it all. Read on and see where NHL Hockey got its start!
It’s almost spring, and that means it’s almost baseball season! The Genesis has a generous helping of games in the genre, and one of them is Sports Talk Baseball, Sega’s only attempt to expand its play-by-play line of sports games beyond the initial football offering. Featuring real players and some solid gameplay, it’s a great way to jump into the sport if you’re just looking for some arcade-style fun.
SEGADATE: 2-14-08. We’ve encountered a copy of the Genesis game Star Trek: Crossroads of Time, featuring the crew of Deep Space Nine. Initial scans reveal that the game is mediocre at best, and our away team’s findings seem to confirm this. I’ve sent our science officer, Lt. Commander Burr, to re-examine the game in order to ensure that there is no immediate danger to the crew or anyone else in Starfleet.
