No Rocket Knight.
No Gunstar Heroes.
No Sonic 3 & Knuckles
……..
And you let some games like King of Monsters, Altered Best, or Strider come in this top ????
This list is pure garbage, nothing else.
Thumb down.
Gun star heroes and dynamite heady are missing, good choices for the most part though.
Basically every game that looks better than an Atari 2600 title.
So was this the first time you played these games?
all gorgeous ๐
Mega Turrican…that is all
Takara ports of SNK games to the genesis are just insane. Especially considering that the gameplay of games such as Fatal Fury 2 and Samurai Shodown are really solid.
Great vid, thanks for creating it! I like these vids for finding out about great games ive never heard of! Also thanks for adding Batman and Robin as I suggested in your other vid there are some awesome effects in this game like the full screen rotating backgrounds, sprite scaling and rotation effects on the robot cat face and nice touches like how the tablecloth edges sway, also the music is incredible!
Altered beast????
What is the game on the thumbnail?
Where is
Mickey Mania
Aladdin
Alien soldier
Gun Star Heros
Cool Spot
Streets of rage 2 and 3
Comix Zone
Sonic 3
Contra Hard Corps
Spider-Man Maximum Carnage
…. Wr…??? Wr…??? Wr…???
eternal champions, I had back in the day, nice idea but the graphics were shit, Samurai shodown was better, eternal champions looks rough to me, just a bit rushed looking
It's nice but some of the sequences used aren't always when the games look the best (Castle of Illusion, Xmen 2…) and/or some of these sequences are just too short! (Eliminate Down) Still cool that you done this ๐
Golden axe looks like shit though.
Oh my god gynoug so nice fond memories :')
Yeah!!
16 bits high definition graphics + blast processing!!
Do the math Atari!!
Bufff, what a mixbag. There are some really good and wirthy additions to the list but others in my opinion aren't at all amongst the better looking games (ie James Pond, Altered Beast, Risky Woods…). On the other hand I believe High Seas Havoc, Light Crusader, Samurai Showdown (especially compared to SNES ;)) and others look incredible.
Best LOOKING game: Altered Beast? jesus…
Not sure about the Strike serie (Desert, Jungle and Urban) being especially great-looking but for sure they do their job really well.
Also Altered Beast was impressive back then since it was a very early release (almost a launch title, released just 1 month after the system itself, in november 1988) but it could have looked much better had it being released a bit later and using a bigger cart size. Still a good-looking game overall which also benefits of added parallax scrollings over the arcade original.
ย
Then Sunset Rider is debatable since it underuses the system capabilities in almost every ways but it was Konami first Mega Drive game and their later output such as Hyperstone Heist, Rocket Knight Adventures or Contra Hard Corps look much better in comparison!
And Golden Axe 3 is debatable too, visuals are so variable in this game, with some nice set pieces + great sprites but also some dull backgrounds with a few uninspired protagonists…
Otherwise, excellent video dude, glad to see that you picked most if not all of my suggestions ๐
Great list
Shadow of the beast. I loved playing that game on the Amiga 500 back I the day . Hard game on the mega drive with the screen moving at 100 mph hahaha
More videos like this with different consoles would be great . This is one of my favourites of yours !
Aladdin ? all the disney games look alot better than the snes counterpart, also some of the best looking 16 bits period
why am i seeing annotations? fuksake utube
Surprised Ranger X didn't make it.
If youโre unaware of Everdrives get one, 60$ you get every game on the system. They make them for Nes Snes Genesis and 64 cartridge based. Several options for Saturn Dreamcast Ps1 Ps2 Xbox GameCube Neo Geo and Turbo Duo, Neo Geo is a cartridge to forgot, but itโs 500$, but with Games going for 200/300$ it is very practical
Altered Beast, good joke… ๐ Thanks for including Gynoug, though. ๐
Was an Amiga guy in the MD years but I can't help to be extremely impressed with many of these titles.
Gargoyles as well as some others seem amazing ๐
Great video. The bit wars were the best.
Great video but I feel any video about sega games graphically has to include Tinhead in that list IMO.
very nice i never had this system, look's like some real good game's, thank's
Let the good times roll!!!
nice ^^
