/vr/ - Retro Games

I know, I know. It is stupid to have the rivalry still going. But seriously SNES is much more superior.
I recently tried playing all the 'top' and 'hidden gems' and 'exclusive' Genesis games. None of them were fun.
The sonic games were okay for a level or two and then got retarded.
Vectorman was boring.
Toe Jam and Earl was repetitive and boring.
Golden Axe and Altered Beast had no depth to the gameplay and became boring in minutes.
Even something like Columns (simple gameplay designed to be fun) was bland.

I haven't tried the Phantasy Star games yet, but I suspect they'll be inferior to what the SNES and NES were offerings during the same time.

Is this just me growing up with NES and SNES or are these games really just overhyped in their old age?
