Favorite Genesis Games

by elyk247

Just making this list as I've been revisiting some of my old Genesis games. These aren't necessarily the best games, but the ones I still enjoy playing for some reason.

Mortal Kombat II and III would definitely be on this list if I didn't think that the SNES versions were better.

Showing 1-10 of 15 items

Super Hang-On

1. Super Hang-On

Probably my favorite Genesis game. Definitely the game I go back to the most.

Streets of Rage 2

2. Streets of Rage 2

Go back to Streets of Rage 2 almost as much as Super Hang On.

Phantasy Star II

3. Phantasy Star II

Grind is almost unbearable at times, but it's a fun game with interesting character designs and one of the best 16-bit soundtracks of all time.

ESWAT: City Under Siege

4. ESWAT: City Under Siege

This game is hard as hell. I'll always remember the first the first time I ever got to the jetpack levels. Super fun though.

Virtual Pinball

5. Virtual Pinball

Gore mode.

Decap Attack

6. Decap Attack

I think I like this game more than any of the Sonic games on the Genesis. Not as fast, but I think that's a good thing looking back on it.

Sub-Terrania

7. Sub-Terrania

Hasn't aged well at all and it probably wasn't even that good in it's heyday. A cooler version of Solar Jetman.

Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse

8. Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse

This the best 16-bit Micky Mouse game. Just a pleasant game to play through as well.

Disney's Aladdin

9. Disney's Aladdin

The SNES version is better, but they're completely different games. But it's strange both games are so good.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

10. Sonic the Hedgehog 2

It doesn't really hold up very well, but not including Sonic 2 would have just been churlish.
