September brings with it the end of summer and a return to colder weather (for most people). Another year is entering the twilight of its life, but gaming is eternal.

Every month, our staff and readers share what they’ve been playing. A lot of hidden gems and some well-known classics are discussed, and we hope they’ve helped people find some great new games to play. This month’s selection is filled with some Genesis legends, and we hope you give them a chance if you haven’t already played them or take them out for another spin if you have.
