back in 96' or 97' or maybe earlier I rented it and because I made it to the second or third level I considered it on par with Sonic. Because most games you would rent you would be lucky to finish the first level.

I think this was another good one.

On a side note it didn't help that most people bought games based on whether or not they had a notable TV show or movie tie in, but people can only do so much with they know about and relate too I guess/

I own and love the first one. Is Rampage Edition really that good? I saw it recently at a local shop for cheap, thought about getting it but passed.

>> No.1984351

>>1984343
I think it is, it's one of those games that you can progress very easily in. There are some cheap moments but if you like run and gun Contra styles games it's perfect for you.

>> No.1984352

>>1984343
Rampage Edition is basically like "What if we took the engine from the first game but put Grant in a Contra game?"

Which is pretty cool.

>Dynamite Headdy
Never heard of that one.


>>1984323
That's a good looking list, btw you might like combat cars btw. Not a perfect, but if you master the controls by the second level it has some play thur value, also its pretty cheap these days.

It's another Treasure game. And one of their best. The sheer number of secrets and tricks is just fantastic. Good luck finding them all without a guide.

Wow, good work and thankyou! BTW is it just me or does the sega genesis have a better game list than the snes?

I mean the games they made for the sega genesis were games like Arkham asylum and the games that nintendo produced were like minecraft in comparison. I mean you could fucking stab people in aladdin!

The sega genesis is so much cooler than the snes, even if the snes does still have better games.

They should have made more games like Star wars! What awesome game that was for the snes.......

Pretty much everything listed already is a must have. Just adding the port of Illusion city and also shadow run for the Mega CD

All of the above and also:

Gauntlet 4 (september version)
Fatal Labyrinth (legit roguelike with permadeath and randomisation)
Musha
Warsong
Red Zone and Jungle/urban/desert strike (if you dig helicopter action)
(Cool) spot goes to hollywood
Zero Tolerance (just wait until second level)

SNES has some pretty good titles, but in my opinion the really good gems for SFC are hidden among the japanese titles. But Genesis still my favourite console by far.

Daily reminder that if you've waited THIS LONG to buy the game then you're bandwagon jumper and exactly the cause of the current price inflation you people like to moan about.

If your collection isn't 99.9% complete by now you don't deserve them.
