The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Want to cap off your Labor Day weekend the right way? Then why not read our full review of the Sega CD hit NBA Jam? It’s got all the B-ball action you’ll need, and if you have a few friends with you, this one’s going to provide you with hours of fun. Chances are that you already own at least one version of this classic, but we wouldn’t be happy if we didn’t just review them all!
Some board games translate well to video game format, such as Clue. Being able to play such a classic without having spread out all those tiny pieces and board over a table is a great thing, and the multi-player fun has been maintained intact. Parker Brothers has a long history of converting its traditional line up to digital format, and this is one of their better efforts.
Whenever you talk soccer games on the Genesis, Electronic Arts’ FIFA series is always mentioned. Some consider it to be the best representative of the genre on the console, but there are many dissenting opinions, and fans often point to Konami’s stellar International Superstar Soccer Deluxe as a contender. Does it live up to the hype? Why not read our full review and see for yourself?
When most people think of RPGs, they don’t think of the Genesis. That’s unfortunate, as the console boasts a great library of quality titles (almost as many as it has shmups!). When you’re done with the Phantasy Stars and Shining titles, there’s another game awaiting your attention. Nowhere near as pretty or manageable as those games but boasting a quest almost three times the size, Might & Magic: Gates to Another World is the one Genesis RPG that will make you humble. Trust us, any game with a 169-page instruction manual is one that doesn’t pull its punches.
Sometimes, a game comes along that totally justifies the stigma attached to licensed titles. We’re talking utter trash here, and a few releases can be quickly named when one is asked to mention which ones stand out the most (anyone remember LJN’s abysmal X-Men game for the NES?). Back to the Future Part III is a card-carrying member of that sorry list.
