The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
From the original game to The Lost World, the penultimate release for the console, the four titles Sega gave us have sparked discussion and controversy around the Internet for years.

Sometimes, you really want to like a game, but it does everything in its power to keep that from happening. Case in point: Doom, a game released on about a million systems, arrived on two different Sega consoles in as many years. The problem is that both of them were well… less than what was expected. In fact, we don’t know which one is worse, so we shackled staff writer Nick Gibson to a desk and made him play them both extensively. After much suffering and even more caffeine, he’s given us his results. Read our comparison and see which Doom is the less potent of two poisons.
There’s been a tremendous flow lately of news regarding Genesis-related properties, from Sega’s announcements back at E3 last year to the release of the Sega Genesis Collection (PS2 & PSP) and EA Replay (PSP).

It can sometimes take quite a while to weed through all the innaccurate auction titles, poor descriptions, and unclear shipping instructions that some sellers lamentably include in their listings. In the latest installment of Stories from the Book of Genesis, Sega-16 shares some past experiences with the popular site and chances are, you’ve had a couple of the same things happen to you!
