The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
The baseball season’s winding down, and soon we’ll be heading to the Fall Classic. Too bad the word “classic” doesn’t apply to Electronic Arts’ Tony La Russa Baseball. It does absolutely nothing to stand out. That wouldn’t be so bad if it didn’t play so darn slow. Compared to other baseball games on the Genesis at the time, it’s not really worth a lot of your time
It seems everyone loves the Genesis, no matter where you go. So many people are still passionate about Sega’s 16-bit wonder all around the world, and it’s great to see so much energy in the retro community for a console that still offers tons of awesome gaming experiences. Fans in Europe are especially competitive when it comes to their Mega Drives, and if you enjoyed reading our coverage of the German Mega Drive Championships, you’ll definitely want to check out our article on this past February’s Portuguese tournament. It was a real nail-biter!
Wolfteam released so many games for the Genesis that it’s a miracle it found time to do anything else. Game after game made its way to our little console, and while some are better than others, most are worth checking out in some way or another. Take Final Zone, for example. With its complex gameplay and isometric view, it probably turned off a lot of gamers, but look deeper and there’s a decent game to be found.

There are plenty of racing games on the Genesis, and thanfully, you’ll find one much better than Lotus Turbo Challenge. Not as impressive as either its predecessor or sequel, it is the stereotypical middle child. Bland visuals and audio mix with a brutal difficulty to create one game that makes you thankful you have OutRun. Don’t believe us? Read our full review, and make tracks to a better racer.
