It’s time to fly into the danger zone! Sega’s Tomcat Alley takes the full throttle action of jet fighters and mixes it with… full-motion video? Yep, and suprisingly, it isn’t all that bad. In fact, Tomcat Alley is, dare I say it, enjoyable.

NBA Live ’95
Basketball was a big part of the Genesis’ success, and Electronic Arts lead the charge with its superb NBA Live series. So powerful was the impact felt by the franchise’s thunderous 1994 debut that the brand name became an EA staple and continues to sell well today. We have a full review of the first game, NBA Live ’95, one of the premier games in the genre on the console, so read up and get ready to get your B-ball on!
Wacky Worlds Creativity Studio
The Sega Club line of games was aimed at the younger Genesis demographic, and one of the odder releases was Wacky Worlds Creative Studio. Just how “creative” Sega expected anyone to get with this amalgam of painting, and music composition is anyone’s guess, but it at least included the Mega Mouse.
Cosmic Carnage
One of the few fighters created just for the 32X was an obscure game called Cosmic Carnage. It was released only on the 32X, so it is virtually unknown due to that add-on’s failure (it wasn’t the only game to suffer such a fate). A beat-em-up with little innovation or any special qualities to make it stand out in the crowd Cosmic Carnage wasn’t anything special and if you haven’t played it, then don’t worry because you haven’t really missed out on anything.
Skitchin’
Tired of riding your bike and pounding in other racer’s heads in Road Rash? Then ditch the bike, lace up those inline skates, and get ready for some Skitchin’.

See if you can grind (ha!) your way through our full review and get all the details.
