Genesis Reviews
Zombies Ate My Neighbors
Wacky aliens and chainsaw-wielding madmen were the norm in LucasArts’ humorous action hit Zombies Ate My Neighbors. As funny as it was challenging, the game never let up, and was tremendous fun with a friend.
Tommy Lasorda Baseball
Major League Baseball’s race to the playoffs is on, and we have a little something to get you in the spirit. Tommy Lasorda Baseball was the first hardball game for the Genesis, and though it lacked real teams and players, the gameplay and presentation set a high bar for later games.
Mortal Kombat 3
It’s hard to believe they’ve made as many Mortal Kombat games as they have, and the series seems as popular as ever. One of the most anticipated installments was Mortal Kombat III, which was released on a whole slew of consoles. The Genesis version held its own, and offered gamers another reason to piss off legislators.
Target Earth
Nothing’s better than piloting a big, bad mech, especially since it means that you get to blow things up without mercy. Dreamworks’ Target Earth was one of the first Genesis games to bring the experience home in such style, and spawned a string of sequels.
