The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
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.
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.
