The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Who doesn’t like Micro Machines? Simple, yet incredibly addictive, Codemasters beloved series reached legendary heights with the introduction of the ingenius J-Cart, which allowed up to four people to enjoy the fun. While not as ambitious as those later installments, the original game still holds its own against the competition and is more than worth the purchase price.
Everyone knows that the Genesis has a… generous selection of platformers. There’s literally more than you can imagine, and such a genre glut is sure to mean that some of the good ones are going to get overlooked. Take TinHead, for instance. Solid gameplay, great presentation, and a likeable character all make for a fun game, but most people haven’t played it. Have you?
Electronic Arts has a reputation for being at the top of the hockey heap, but there have been some serious contenders over the years. One that sat particularly well with fans was Sony Imagesoft’s ESPN National Hockey Night. Offering great graphics, solid gameplay and multiple views, it was a great alternative to those who chose not to play the NHL series.
With all the love everyone has for ol’ Indy, we figured it was time to revisit the good doctor’s Genesis adventure, based on the third film. Sadly, it not only fails to live up to the movie it’s based on, but it’s enough to make you want to hang up your Fedora and whip for good.
In a perfect world, the Amiga and Genesis would have gotten married and had some great-looking 16-bit kids. There was definitely something there, as games from the popular computer frequently appeared on Sega’s console. Lots of great titles were made available to Genny owners, including the great Bubba ‘N Stix. A great platformer that made players use their minds as much as their hands, it was great fun all around that more people need to play.
