      Wellll for music diversity that wasn’t a good thing. All genesis games sounded the same. The SNES had superior sound chip in that regard. And don’t get me wrong, I love both systems. Just a shame that Sega rushed to get their 16 bit system out before Nintendo and skimped on a few things.

      Yeah I can't argue with that one. Technical limitations often yield the greatest results. It's why Final Fantasy 6 OST (SNES) is still one of the most listened to scores. It's just that the Genesis was REALLY limited. That same bass and lead synth can be heard in almost every game, and although I totally appreciate that "cozy" familiar feeling it brings, it's still odd that Sega overlooked such an important feature. But... I guess that's part of the charm now.
      I was obviously a SNES fan way back when. But soon you learn to put those petty preferences aside. I recently bought myself a Sega Genesis Classic Mini, and I'm having amazing fun catching up on titles I missed out on. But, my younger brother had the Genesis and MJ's Moonwalker was so fun. However, I doubt that MJ actually arranged the chip music for the game. Or did he? :P
      My brother also had another game where the music stood out. I think it was called Arrow Flash.

There isn't an unkind thing you can possibly say about Shining Force. The games have infinite replay value. I've played dozens of times, choosing different combinations of teams. It's never the same game twice. Too bad the franchises ended up working dead-end jobs as Shining in the Darkness and PSU. =/

      Thanks. And besides, those two games, namely Contra Hard Corps, USUALLY get recognition in a myriad of Top 10 or Top 20 Genesis titles. Rocket Knight Adventures is an underrated Genesis game, but in most cases we see that game on a lot of Top 10s and Top 20s.

    • @ryodash
      @ryodash 10 років тому

      Yeah. But Rocket Knight is underrated all round. It should be held in high regard on any videogame list, not just the genesis. That's how I feel about it, anyway. Interesting to note, from what I hear, Rocket Knight was largely formed by the team who went on to become Treasure. After Rocket Knight, they left Konami and made Gunstar Heroes. Well ... so I've heard.

    Sonic 3 is my pick. Featuring Music by the King of Pop himself, this game truly revolutionized the Sonic Fomula. With getting into special stages without a set number of rings, a new rival/ally Knuckles, and the competitve mode, making tournaments a blast to have. Sonic 3 will have your mind blown time and time again every time you play it, especially with the many possible routes you can take.

      in my opinion, sports games are too repetitive to be mentioned. each and every sport has the exact same gameplay. you score in a net or you go for the touchdown or you hit a home run. now there are some unique features in some of them, but that doesn't make them any more special.
      that's not to say they aren't great games though. i loved the NHLs, NBAs, maddens, and world series baseballs. but i wouldn't get all the versions back. i already have NBA live 96 that came with the genesis that i repurchased. and i will try to get only one of each other sports.

It has superb graphics, very smooth control and gameplay, weapons that are done very well with all of them being useful, and it really pushes the limits of what a 16bit system can do. It also has a kick ass soundtrack that makes you want to destroy the endless hordes of robots you'll face, especially on expert mode.
      Treasure, it's developer, was started by a group of people that broke away from Konami. The lead development team was actually the same team behind Contra. Konami has never been the same since.
