[Sega Genesis edition] Your favorite top 10 games!

[Eleccybubb]

Noooooess no Phantasy Star 2? ((((( sad face

Honestly I prefer 4 and 3 first.

2 is amazing but I just ended up liking 3 more despite it being considered the odd one out of the franchise. 4 still remains the best RPG ever made in my opinion.

Yeah I agree with you 4 is indeed superior than 2 and I love the fact that it was a very long RPG I remember when I was young I honestly though Zio boss fight was the final battle and we finally avenging Alis death yay the end but haha didn't know it was just half way through the game.

What, no one liked Aladdin?

Great game. I'd say honorable mention too but not top 10 worthy imo.

[Eleccybubb]

Well okay. I think top 10 s are subjective anyways.

Well yeah. Everyone has different games/consoles they like and that's cool.

[Orby]

I am curious did you try Jungle strike? it's basically a better more updated version of Desert Strike game.

yes, I did, but I kind of remember Desert Strike more... I also had Urban Strike too that wasnt as good :P

[xezar]

Hmm, too hard to give an order but here’s my top 10 in general:

Lunar: The Silver Star: I was gifted a Genesis/Sega CD combo from my birthday as a kid, loved this rpg
Mortal Kombat: Specifically the Sega CD version. Was fun just to fire it up for the Mortal Kombat music video they tossed in this version
Sonic the Hedgehog 2: Much better than the original to me
Vectorman: A pretty fun platforming/shooting title
Phantasy Star 3: I ended up owning 3 and didn’t play the others until years later for the GBA release (and still never played 4 actually), but I always liked 3 for the branching genealogy paths for the playthroughs
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3: many hours and lives were taken during plays of this game in after school care lol
Gunstar Heroes: Another fun run/gun platoformer
X-Men: Dont remember the exact one, but they had some pretty fun ones
Spider-Man: again don’t remember the exact one, but it could be co-op with venom as a playable second and was against Carnage and his spawn offs.
BART Simpson Nightmare: was a Simpsons fan even back then

Probably forgetting some, nothing like nostalgia though.

What, no one liked Aladdin?

Loved that game! And Taz Escapes from Mars which was hard as fuck. Another and 3rd honorable mention goes to a game that has a special place in my heart, Cool Spot. Yes, it was a game sponsored by 7Up but it's pretty fun, and a very difficult platform game.

[KOMO1211]

a lot of good games on these lists. sonics 1-3. shining force 1-2, shining in the darkness....yet no love for Todds Adventure in Slime World!!

[Deleted]

I had a Mega Drive, not a Genesis, but anyways...not a top 10, but here's a couple of my favorites:




Other games I liked, and loved to play, would've been the obvious Sonic and Sonic 2, but then also Altered Beast, The Duel: Test Drive II, Super Thunder Blade, Italia '90, Alien 3...and quite a few others I'm forgetting.

[Usagi Senshi]

Rocket Knight Adventures (almost any Konami game on the console really, they were all nearly god tier)

Ghostbusters

Wonderboy in Monster World

Phantasy Star II/IV

Sonic 3&Knuckles

Gunstar Heroes

Shinobi III (and Revenge and Shadow Dancer)

Dynamite Headdy

Splatterhouse 2/3

Alisia Dragoon

Valis series (1,2,3 and SD, I liked them all better than the TGCD versions, better sprite work, backgrounds, animations, etc)

Thunder Force 2/3

Marvel Land

Trouble Shooter (and its sequel)

Strider (and all of the other excellent Capcom games Sega converted/developed early on in the console's life)

many many more, there was a reason this was my favorite 16-bit console (still loved my SNES though and TurboDuo/16) and owned 100+ games on it at one point.

I loved both Wonder Boys released on the Genesis, but Phantasy Star III was my favorite game because it was so freaking weird. The music, the sprites, everything.

Yeah I remember there were three battle theme one is when the mobs are so easy and one when they are challenging and one when they are too hard. :P
