Episode Notes:
1. All Master System, Sega CD and Genesis games captured via the Mega SG. Dreamcast games captured on real hardware. The 32X game was captured via emulation. My 32X is currently apart due to a recap, so I had to find alternative means.
2. This type of video differs from my usual "worst" lists because all the games were directly from Sega in one form or another. Sega either made em, published em, funded em, or had something to do with their creation.
3. I have always felt one of Sega's biggest mistakes was not putting together elite teams in the US and Europe to make games. Nearly everything was outsourced to companies of suspect quality. This in effect crippled them when the Saturn launched, as Sega had not one single American team capable of producing a quality game.
4. My daughter assisted me quite a bit in the making of this video. She still hates the Barney game.
"My daughter quickly lost interest [in Barney] and told me to put Sonic back in."
Your daughter is very wise.
"My daughter quickly lost interest, and told me to put sonic back in." ...proof positive that you're doing something right.
I’m actually concerned about the quality of some modern kids entertainment. My brother had a baby last year and I got worried when I heard him sing Baby Shark to her. If I ever have kids, I will be VERY careful what movies, music, TV shows, games and books I give them. I will introduce them to Thomas The Tank Engine through the model seasons narrated by Ringo Starr/George Carlin/Alec Baldwin/Michael Angelis (depending on where you live), I will introduce them to Spider Man and Batman through both heroes’ 90s cartoons all while avoiding stuff like Peppa Pig (poorly written and poorly narrated nonsense) and Horrid Henry (the main character is a TERRIBLE influence who almost never gets his comeuppance)! I know they’ll eventually experience bad media, either at nursery, playgroup, hospital or friends’ houses, so if I show them as much good stuff beforehand, they’ll stand more of a chance of sensing the badness of something bad.
Fucking Barney
The fact that there is a part 2 speaks volumes.
After watching your channel for the last few years, it's quite clear that Sega is one of the most mismanaged videogame companies of all time.
Agreed
👍
It's what you get with a culture that values seniority far and above competence or leadership skill.
Atari is worse
@@Dogeathotdog1 obviously. But. How much worse? Sega is just fortunate that the Genesis and their arcade machines exist, otherwise they'd be no better than Atari.
"...And you just had to wonder what the hell sega was doing..." The story of sega. Amazing brilliance. And baffling decisions.
They should've make a game about me instead
Couldn't sum it up better, Sega had flashes of absolute brilliance but plenty of moments that made you scratch your head and wonder what the fuck they were thinking? The Sega CD and 32X really hurt their reputation. The Sega CD did have some brilliant games, but it was abandoned way too quickly.
@@DesertRainReads Despite the sheer monstrosity of it all, the combination of SegaCD and 32X could have produced some epic titles, but I think by that time, Whoever was left in the Sega camp was focused on developing Saturn titles. Then came the surprise launch... and then Bernie's "not our future" quote.
@@jcchaconjr in theory a genesis, cd, 32x could have done some amazing games. In reality it probably wouldn't have been worth the effort
The business side of Sega was atrocious
Your daughter told you to put out Barney and play Sonic the Hedgehog? Man, she really has good taste!
She could play Mario Kart instead 🐢🚘

LMAO Barney's Hide & Seek is classic... I remember when the GameFAQs board got DESTROYED!
Enduro Racer for the Master System is one of my favourite games. But I never knew they cut it so much. Still, I’ll have my memories.
Enduro racer was a good game
@@yannisbskt Yes Enduro racer for sms was amazing in my opinion. They did a great job adapting it to a solid game
Enduro Racer was an awesome game on the SMS, but I can certainly understand why it's on this list. This list is about games that Sega should be ashamed of, and they should be ashamed of how they cheaped out when releasing the game outside of Japan. If you have the ability to try the Japanese version of the game I suggest you do so, as it has twice the number of courses, and a few extra things like title screen and ending graphics. The international releases are literally half the game because they cut the ROM size from 256KB to 128KB to save money on ROM chips.
One of my most played sms games.
@@thesoulforge3607 Fo sho!
I bet you felt proud when she told you to put sonic back on!
Yup. Shes all grown up now. Hehe
My little girl too likes playing Sonic Mania multiplayer with me. Fun times.

@@foamybelch Nope. You're the one that's spelling things wrong.
Today i gave a spin to PEN PEN TRILCELON..and yeah..ure most right ahah
Who would want SegaLordX to make a full documentary about Sega from the begining till today, even if it is a 10 hour documentary, but cut in parts to keep us interested?
Enduro racer looks like the child of Paperboy and excitebike
It's better than both of those, but yeah, kinda.
That's exactly what I was thinking too.
@@priestfan81 Maybe better than Excitebike,but not better than Paperboy.
"You use your two asses to fly through five stages..."

@matt fahringer shaddup
I'm pretty sure Tails does *canonically* have two asses, according to the Archie comics.

I loved enduro racer as a kid I actually own a factory sealed copy now
My grandma called every game with dirt bikes enduro racer I had no idea what she was talking about I thought she was going senile or something 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I really enjoyed that one too
That factory seal smell.
Oh yeah 🤤
You lucky one collector:)
@@matthewnikitas2904 hi matt!greek?
I loved my sms enduro racer was a decent game
Imagine if it was Montanna 21 instead of Madden now days
Prolly be a better series...
If it were NFL2K21 is would be even better. (Assuming they kept making games with the same awesomeness that was NFL2K5)
homiedclown truth. 2k5 was the best football game ever made
@@louyork553 I agree I got a tattoo of that game and many memories
Would be far better than Madden, which is absolute garbage and has been for ages. Haven't bought a Madden game since '09 and have no intention of doing so.
That Barney game looks like an Angry Video Game Nerd episode waiting to happen.
I actually liked "Tails Sky Patrol." Once you get used to how his ring works, and interacts with objects it actually becomes easier, and actually quite fun, and creative.
I like it too
Had Arial The little Mermaid been developed by the creators of Ecco the Doplhin Novotrade International I think it would have been a worthy classic in the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive library.
I don't think it was awful though. It was average or so, but it was also very short and easy. I beat it on the hard mode on the day I got it. Well, probably less than 2 hours after I got it.
You've just blown my mind; that's EXACTLY what they should've done...
Never heard that story about EA and John Madden Football. Interesting.

On the Barney's Hide&Seek Game, I suspect your daughter looked and said "You owe me at least one M rated game."
When Sega did something right it was awesome. When Sega failed, it hurt.
Should be a LOT of saturn games in that list.
P.S i love Saturn
As a father I made the same mistake with my son and daughter. Now he's a Marine and she's a teen. I miss the days of introducing them to games from my childhood.
In the US, during the Genesis day, it was actually pretty easy to stay away from bad first/second party Sega games - just don't buy anything that looked Western, as most of the stinkers were developed outside of Japan. Japan had some stinkers too, but none of them got localized for US release during the Genesis days. However, the rule got a bit shaky later in the Genesis life-span, as SoA began to put out some decent stuff too, like Comix Zone and Vector Man. What pisses me off the most are the great Japanese games that never got brought to the US, e.g.: Super Fantasy Zone, Eliminate Down, Panorama Cotton, Monster World IV, Pulseman, Magic Troll, Alien Soldier, Langrisser 2, etc. From what I know, Sega of America almost passed on localizing Gunstar Heroes too! We only got it here because one of their producers stood up for it. The rest didn't think that it was any good. Just shows you what kind of people were in charge at SoA! At least they were good at marketing.
Really interesting stuff
Iirc Alien Soldier DID get a NA localization... But only though Sega Channel.
All I knew before watching this video is that the Barney game gave us a MUGEN video where a giant black Barney fought *Godzilla.*
I cannot make that up. Not a single word.
You are a true game journalist. Integrity, balance and a dash of personality. Thank you.
Whelp, anyone else feel like playing Shinobi 3 after that intro?
Or after hearing "Ground Zero" in the outro? Yep!
My copy gives me black screen 😢
Contacts are dirty
@@greenkoopa Lame. Someone stole my copy of the game many years ago. Still pissed about that.
Wow, memory lane. I too bought an import DC, which of course included the infamous Godzilla. Needless to say it didn't get much playtime when I also picked up HotD2, with the amazing Japanese lightgun, Powerstone, SR2 and Sonic Adventure.
oh god, not barney.
The purple abomination of a dinosaur who loves you!
Of all of these games, the one that fooled me was Cosmic Carnage. I (like everyone at the time) was heavy into 2D fighters, and in still screenshots, it looked great. To make matters worse, when the internet was new to me in the late '90s, I ordered a Japanese copy of Cyber Brawl based solely on the cover art I saw on ebay, not knowing it was the same game. I still have both. Two copies of that crap game. However, it was the game that taught me that like the Neo Geo AES, most 32X games boot in the region of the console, so Cyber Brawl plays as Cosmic Carnage on my US 32X, and vice versa on my Japanese unit.
8:16 Gotta' love the re-used sound effects from Sonic though!
"Quality control or lack thereof" literally could be the epitaph for Sega in the console business.
They cared more about quantity than quality and it showed. Sure they had other bigger problems but that one certainly didn't help at all.
Hey! I actually like Sword of Sodan. It just screams out 16 bit to me. :)
Hey, if that what floats your boat, I say go for it. Honestly, I'm actually a big fan of Deadly Towers myself - I spent many a sick day grinding through it as a kid. So, no accounting for taste.
A Blockbuster rental that was played once
@@georgehancock2307 The screenshots on the back of the box looked absolutely epic as the characters were massive and very detailed, they were probably the best back of the box graphics I had seen to that point. Unfortunately the back of the box was actually the best thing about the game. Easily one of the most plodding, unresponsive, badly animated and crappy sounding games I've ever played.
@@homiedclown I think every second game I rented in my life looked better than it was....introduction to online dating
At least you didn't have the disk swapping madness of the Amiga original!
I gotta be honest, I liked the port of Galaxy Force 2 despite it being a subpar port. The music in the Genesis port sounds A LOT better than the Arcade original to me.
The FM Towns/PS2 arranged music is the best IMO.
If it was only released in Japan, why wasn't it named "Miles Skypatrol"?
Really tho, I have never understood all the hate that Sonic Spinball gets. I always liked that game a lot as a kid, and I still enjoy it today from time to time. The stage design is rather unique & fun to traverse. Yeah, it's a tough game, but I sure hope that's not the reason ppl hate on it, as that is no reason at all to hate on a game simply because you're not good at it. Just cus a game is hard does not mean it's bad.
Hell, I even love the music in it which most ppl seem to hate, and that was one of the things I always loved about it most! I absolutely love the rock style music in the game & think it's well done, and the boss theme is actually one of my favorites on the entire system! No, it's not a masterpiece or anything, but it's far from a bad game in my humble opinion.
I got Spinball and a Sega Nomad at a yard sale on the cheap. It was a great game to just zone out to.
Sega's company motto should have been: United we stand, Divided we fall.
When you mentioned Disney, I thought you were going to mention Fantasia. Then you did in the video's closing. That was one I spent the full price on as a kid, and was disappointed. I did manage to beat it, however, despite the frustration. Definitely a missed opportunity, particularly for how good Castle of Illusion and Quackshot are.
+GameBoy Guru Fantasia is a glaring example of a bad Disney Sega Genesis game in a long line of normally well-made ones. It was rushed out to tie in with the film’s VHS release, and as a result, it suffers from sloppy programming, awkward controls, haphazard level design, tinny music that hardly does the film’s soundtrack any justice, and Chernabog isn’t even the final boss. One of the game’s developers even admitted in an interview that the game needed at least two more months of development to iron out its flaws.
They talk about it in part 1
I dunno what it was with Sega back then, but they seemed to have a habit of being really strict with their game cart sizes back in their earlier days. They really didn't want to use bigger storage if at all possible, and I think many games were limited in how good they were because of it. I can only imagine how many of their earlier titles suffered because of this. Thank god then eventually loosened up later on, but imagine the sorts of games we could have had on the Genesis early on had they not been so stingy.
@Benjamin Owuye Jagun Seems they were being stingy bout their profit margins. That or perhaps they were being price gouged on the ROM chips they were using compared to Nintendo
I grew up with Barney.
I live about 20 minutes away from the studio that Barney was filmed at.
Not even I can defend Barney.
Barney is one of those things that makes Texas look bad, along with Marzgurl, Randy Pitchford, Funimation, Rooster Teeth, and numerous corrupt politicians.
Because of the thumbnail I was afraid you were gonna say Tails' Adventure. Loved that game as a kid. But yeah, totally agree about Sky Patrol. Never got very far in it.
In regards to kids and gaming, I tried to get my oldest into games by playing some barbie pony mini games thing. Turns out she actually really liked Power Rangers and would play it for hours on end. Also I actually really liked Enduro Racer even though I probably preferred Hang On much more.
Sega Lord X, the hero UA-cam doesn’t deserve
Worst games list are always the best videos. Keem them coming
I must admit, I am not a Sega fan. Had a genesis as one my first console experiences and played the classics to death. Never had a Nintendo Entertainment System, SNES or 64 but of course a Gameboy.
What I love about your videos is your enthusiasm for the company. Sega really ought to be paying you for your content and praise and even when you have something negative to say about Sega, it's always done in such a positive way.
You make great content and I hope you continue to make videos. Personally, I enjoy listening about your experience with the game way back when and your reflections on them now.
You have nailed a really good review style for this channel.
Haha.. as a European I still remember how I loved Joe Montana Football for SMS but it was very difficult to find any other kids that were willing to play it with me :D
"sees the title of the video"
this is gonna be good.
I was listening to this while going to one of my local gameshops and, I kid you not, they had Godzilla Generations 😂 I know it must be terrible but I had to have it
As a SEGA fan since the SMS... I am relatively certain SEGA is ashamed of all of their games except the Sonic games. It would explain why sequels are so uncommon from them and even remakes end up licensed out to fans-turned-pro (see Sonic Mania, the Wonderboy games, and the upcoming Alex Kidd).
I have a signed Joe Montana SEGA Sports football I got from an ex SEGA employee!
I am incredibly jealous of you. Hahaha
That is awesome.
Sega should be ashamed that action 52 is available for their console, that's for sure
Sega had nothing to do with that though lol.
So does Nintendo for NES
Nah
It wasn’t a official game
It is unlicensed, something you need for a game to be official
I remember magazines with replies to letters, telling readers that the DC Godzilla was better left in Japan. Now I see why.
Captain Silver in SMS. Game we generally liked but missing half the game. They put the missing levels in the manual just to add to the insult. We thought our copy was broken as kids.
I don't know what it says about me, but Joe Montana Football is one of my favorite games ever. I've never played Madden though, so that must have been way better.
don't forget shadow run when talking about games Bluesky made, one of my favorite genesis games and my favorite game from them
Love that game. Got the SNES version too. And too fuckin bad about the 360 game!
@@gjergjaurelius9798 the 360 game is good too, it just got screwed over by being a microsoft Vista exclusive *for pc
+Bloodyshinta1 Also, Desert Demolition Starring Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner. You have the option of playing as either character in the game.
Love the video and you sharing your own expectations and memories behind the games! You're such a solid content creator, I can't believe I hadn't found you sooner, my man. Also, as a fellow dad, would you consider making a video on possible good Sega retro games for children?
You're totally right. The PlayStation 2 & 3 were tough to program for, & they fared just fine. The Virtual Boy caused migraines and was discontinued after 1 year. 2 years after that the Gameboy Color hit. The Gameboy Advance was only 2 years later, with a screen nobody could see. And it was followed by the DS only 3 years after that. Other companies have proven the hardware moves Sega made weren't fatal...but only as long as you have the software - or a killer feature - to bring the people in.
Oof, this one is painful to watch in the best way possible. I really appreciate all your knowledge and insight. I didn't really grow up playing a lot of these games. That Joe Montana situation was a real mess. Great video!
Hey Sonic Spinball is a good game I don't know why everyone dislikes it so much its very underrated game and it was based off the American Sonic cartoons in the 90's and I'm glad to have it on Sonic mega collection plus.
Where's virtual hydlide for the Saturn?
The game with the worst of everything, that's soooo bad you still have to experience it, to truly know how awful it is?
Who's main character's walking animation, made him look like someone who just had, or was teetering on the verge of shitting themselves as they glided across the bland and almost identical looking blocky landscapes. Only to be killed, after an hour of never coming across a single soul, to be killed by a random bat after accidentally walking into a cave!!
Unbelievable and remarkable in it's absolute awfulness!!!
It's on part 3 coming soon...
I would like to try Cosmic Carnage.
It would be great if someone touched it up and made a patch.
It has that 32X oddity to it.
Of course; it's only a (barely) passible prototype at best, and certainly NEEDS to be finished...
I always hear the story behind the first Joe Montana. But I had the first Madden and my cousin had the first Montana. I thought both had their ups and downs and I loved both. It never seemed like a downgraded version of the first Madden to me. There are parts, like the speed, that I think are superior to the first Madden.
I think Madden ‘91-‘94 might play a part in people’s subconscious to create this idea that the first Madden was head and shoulders above the first Montana.
They both were great first 16 bit football games that each had better parts than the other.
That master system motorcycle game with the cut content was still great tho. I played it quite a bit
The DC was very much rushed in 🇯🇵 like to make the end of the year launch date...there. the western release was, very much the opposite and they had an awesome launch lineup...but I do recall the controversy over both godzilla and pen pen being, underwhelming 😆 but still...the hype was real! Seeing vf3 running on it, it did remind me exactly of seeing the super famicom on import for the first time and instantly needing to own it for the aesthetics of the machine alone but also the truly existing prospect of a huge generational leap. When soul calibur was running the next time I was in the store there was a small crowd. Jaws dropped. Good memories...
Man, Pen Pen is really slept on in the Sega community. You should try it out with a group of friends sometime, its a blast.
I'm gonna add to this list, Phantasy Star 3. Gonna get a lot of hate, but I think it falls way short of what the series had built upon, up to that time. Great video bro. Keep them coming.
Great video SLX. I think the most regrettable f ups are the ones when Sega had a huge hit game on their hands, and put out a lousy conversion. Saturn House of the Dead being one of the biggest examples.
Your point about QA makes a lot of sense, SLX. Nintendo tends to be a lot stricter about it and they are still around as a hardware maker.
I'll always be a Sega fan though, I think the good games on the whole, and the great memories, far outstrip the duds they put out, but this may just be the rosy tinted glasses you spoke about.
Also, for some reason, I liked Sonic Spinball; guess I'm weird.
I love Enduro Racer! I still play it to this day.
Says Godzilla feels like you're walking around in a rubber suit smashing up cardboard buildings. Sounds like an accurate Godzilla experience to me.
You mentioned it in the Dreamcast section (but not in the list, thankfully!)...Pen Pen Triicelon! (sp)
That was one of my favourites on the DC, along with Ooga Booga. Those games were unique in that they didn't play like many other games at the time. Ooga Booga was like a battle royale, and PPT was like a triathelon with a hint of Kart Racer and a big heap of charm dumped on it.
The map of that godzilla game looks like swimming trunks.
I had to go back to part 1!.. great video Mr. Lord X. Hope all is well.
Damn... The Enduro game info got me completely pissed... I played that game a lot back in the day, and even then thought it was short....
Definitely a case of ignorance is bliss. I never understood why this game never got a proper arcade port.
@@lazarushernandez5827 I think the Master System version is far better than the arcade. The arcade game plays like crap, and trying to do a direct port to the SMS would have made an already garbage game even worse.
I had Enduro Racer as a rental for one weekend back then, it was the perfect game for that...but getting it as a Birthday or Christmas Present in your Childhood and beeing stuck with it for the next months, ouch.
I know that Mortal Kombat for the Sega CD was made by Acclaim, But Mortal for the sega cd is biggest disappointment in gaming for me, Rented that game back in the day, damn, what a garbage port, I was expecting something similar to the Arcades, basically was a Mega Drive port with more frames and the Arcade soundtrack.
It even had the famous Mortal Kombat song along with clips of gameplay from the Super NES version with no blood.
Speak of the devil for the first time 8 years actually displaying my 5 Sega Genesis collection plus games on display 👌 Nice....
Your grammar chip is malfunctioning.
@@Gorilla_Jones I'm just drunk
I rented Galaxy Force II and always had a soft spot for how hard they nailed the arcade soundtrack, but yeah, in retrospect the Atari-ized horizons, especially the walls inside the asteroids, are pretty ridiculous.
Casually sat here before work drinking coffee,eating cereal watching this ....sold
Okay, that first game Enduro Racer sounds like Sonic The Hedgehog from the Sega Game Gear... first level I think? Were they the same sound/production team?
+NYOTC The Game Gear is essentially a portable Master System, and as such, it had the same sound engine.
I really enjoyed Tails' Sky Patrol. It's not perfect but I had a good time with it.
I do like hearing opinions. There are games I can't stand that I know are liked by many. Thanks for the vid.
@Sandman Slim Have you even played these games? You're comparing games that have different mechanics but sure, I'll play along. Flappy Bird 10/10!
Agh. I really didn't need the reminder that I rented Galaxy Force 2. The one real blessing out of all of that is that M2 eventually did do the *incredibly solid* 3DS release of GF2 with 3D depth scaling.
I had no idea about Joe Montana, but it doesn't surprise me at all in retrospect. Sega had a bad habit of half-assing things in precisely that sort of way.
Without turning this into a repeat of the 30-year-old console war, I'll just point out that it was these kinds of botched moves on Sega's part that prevented them from getting any sort of a real telling blow against Nintendo or Sony in the end. They'd have occasional big hits, then they'd drop things like this and even the deepest fans would start to hesitate in trusting them again after Sega CD, 32X, and Saturn in a row. You can certainly point to a lot of things Nintendo did wrong, but Sega's missteps were always so obvious by comparison as to be *painful to watch*.
I have always found it strange that the MD could handle Vectorman, Sonic 3, Sub Terrania, and Comix Zone but not super scalers. It just shouldn't be true.
The Mega Drive simply cannot scale or rotate sprites; the hardware does not support it. There are tricks for "scaling" either the entire foreground layer or the entire background layer, or they can just store all rotations/sizes as frames of sprite animation, but these hacks take up precious CPU cycles, and even then, they can't be as smooth as the hardware scaling you'd find on arcade games or the 32X.
In terms of modern PC graphics, it's like how the 5700XT can handle RDR2 just fine, but there's no way it could run ray-traced quake 2.
It's a shame, Cosmic Carnage looks awesome. Sega, please, give it a frame rate patch and release it on Switch or anything!
They definitely should have had more ports of super scaler games on the 32X. Space Harrier and After Burner were good. Should have done Galaxy Force 2, Outrun, etc.
I used to hate it on weekends when I got to hire a game and I'd pick new one that looked good. Only to find out it was so bad that I ended up playing the games I already owned. It basically ruined my weekend.
Most of the time even if a game was bad, I'd still try to get the most out of it. But on those rare occasions I'd get an absolute dud.
When I was really young and played an atrocious game. I'd think, does anyone find this fun. Someone made this, so there must be people who actually like this right. Yeah that's right. I believed the game was like that on purpose, because I thought that's what some people like and that I just don't understand it.
When my brother told me that wasn't the case. That it is just a bad game. It left me wondering why it even exists. Who would intentionally publish a bad game and why? They should be ashamed.
Whenever SLX uploads I drop everything I'm doing.
Same here, I keep on bluetooth headphones while I'm at work so I don't miss anything 🤣
That Godzilla game looks amazing, just like the movie xD
On the bright side, Galaxy Force II and Cosmic Carnage have OUTSTANDING music, so their existence isn't as shameful.
4:45 two fumbles on the same play
Watching this video really hit hard about how much damage Bernie Stolar did to the Saturn when he was the president of Sega. He hated 2D games and RPG’s and as a result, so many incredible games got passed over. Also, that Virtua Fighter 3tb port was so disappointing. Even as a kid, I knew it felt off and wasn’t a true arcade perfect port as the mechanics and frame rate were not good. Turns out that it was developed by a third party instead of the in house VF team.
Another amazing vid SLX, you just never miss! Ps: also-came here to say "See ya Next year" - A Seahawks fan.
Lord X. Can you please talk about SEGA games on PC. There was an fair amount of sega games release for pcs back in the 90s or early 2000s. It has to be your next segment. 😀
Sega should be ashamed of how they treated us Euro/Brits back in the 90's. missing games, slower versions, big black borders, no Nomad! What the hell Sega lol
Oh man! Dogging on my Godzilla: Generations too? I guess I just like bad games because Godzilla: Generations was a great game. You could make your own Godzilla movies!
Yes, you like bad games. Honesty is the first step.
@@ostiariusalpha huge Godzilla fan. Got all the movies, got a lot of the games....except for generations...😐
Barney Hide and Seek Game is the best video game ever.
About tails skypetrol it is included in sonic gems collection
Beside i'm huge sega fan there is one game i will never touch not form genesis and not from collection and that is fatal labyrinth i hate this game so much
I’ll never forgive them of robbing my childhood of half of Enduro Racer.
I loved U.S. Gold games when growing up. OutRun Europa was my favorite when I was a kid.
These game developers think we’re absolute suckers just fanging for a hint of some the *new new*, which of course many of us can be if we let our guards down. I’m not shocked that I’m prone to some gullibility with my gaming choices.
When your formative gaming experience was being 8 or 9 and getting a Colecovision with 2 games ‘The Smurfs’ & ‘Space Panic’. As buzzed and appreciative as I was to have a console of my own, I was soon conscious of the deficit between my capacity to consume new content and the reality that I had no money to do so... also, you couldn’t rent games and no one else I’ve ever met owned a Coleco Vision, so swaps were out. it was hope for birthday/Xmas gold.
I lost count of how many times I gazed wistfully at the back or the box the console came in which had half a dozen screen shots of other games....
.....what a window it is into the human psyche to concede that there was definitely a voice from part of 10 y.o. me which reasoned, once we own all these, we’ll be fulfilled.
..... it’s a little Gollum-y in retrospect, but fuck it’s mine and me wants it!
Now, the Sega Genesis is my favorite console of all time, but Barney’s Hide and Seek Game is the one Genesis game I never touch. And why should I have to? The game practically plays itself if you put the controller down.
Great video as always!
I wonder why Sega didn't just take the Ecco the Dolphin engine and gameplay and use that as a blueprint for Ariel. Unless Ecco came out after.
I had Enduro Racer on the Master System. It was one of my favourite games on it. I never knew the Japanese version had more tracks.
