did someone mention the tennis game. It was Davis Cup tennis hands down the best game ever on any console. I didn't mention because not too many people play tennis games. Yeah I forgot about NBA jam and also NBA Live. The golf game was also good. And Jeremy Roenick was a god in NHL 93 (that was the game you could juke the goalie every time) 94 the goalies got a little smarter so you had do more one timers I think

Yeah, that's why I liked 93 the best, easy juke and the goalie was owned. I think I beat some team like 36-0 with the Montreal Canadiens in that game. And the tennis game rocked, too. I think it was even better than that new one on Dreamcast that everyone talks about.

skitchin' one of the strangest concepts ever to be in a video game. You're on rollerblades, and you're racing across the city on its highways, and your main method of propulsion is to grab onto cars. There are other competitors as well, and if you latch on to the same car with them, you've got to beat them off with a bat or chain. There are cops that try to catch you skitching, and you can easily get hit by a car and go flying off the screen. 😀

Oh man, I remember Skitchin'! That game was awesome! 😀
 
Oh, how I wish my genesis still worked.

My favs:
Toejam and Earl series
Sonic the Hedgehog series
Streets Of Rage series (best game music EVER, and the game itself wasn't too bad either)
Mortal Kombat 3 (the only one in the series I've ever played)
Star Control

General Chaos ROCKED

I also enjoyed:

DJ Boy
Gaiares (sp?)
Streets of Rage 1-3
Sports Talk Baseball
Flashback

*edit: Star Control was cool, but MUCH better on PC, of course
 
BigJohnKC oh man Davis Cup tennis was designed for the six button controllers. So you had one button for the flat shot, hard flat shot, topsin, dropshot, lob, slice etc. It was an incredible game but only tennis players really cared for it but the split screen and playability was the best I'd ever seen.

is nhl 94 the one with the crowd-o-meter? that was pretty fun.

Yup. I think the highest you could get was 120db or 140db, right? 😀

well... if u cheat... u can get it to like 180. me and my friend would pick the goalie then score... then check the crap outta all the players. that drove the crowd nuts. also... on face-offs... forget about the puck and check the guy. crowd gets even crazier when u do that. hehe...

lol, good old memories 🙂
 
Zero Wing!

Hehe.. I beat that game using an emulator hoping to see another story in the "All your base are belong to us" language.. but instead, all I got was some dancing bean-like characters. Weird Japanese make game that not make sense.


Try Blaster Master 2 if you want a crazy difficult game.

Biohazard battle is pretty damn cool.
 
I found a page where I could download some ROMS and the Gens-Emulator is awesome!

Ah these memories.....
