"The Megadrive"

Well I asked for the forum (or as it happens, name change) and it went ahead, so here I am.

The Megadrive.

Brill i'n't it? I still play mine fairly often - all the classic games like Mega Bomberman, Probotector, Fifas, Street Racer etc.

So to start this topic off, who had or has played the absolute gem, Michael Jackson's Moonwalker?

I miss my megadrive.

The visual lead has brokéd (not the lead the bit the lead geos into)


Sonic rules - end of

lol, sorry :S I couldn't help myself.

Well, I might have been able to...

Excellent post WickedWare, except for one essential detail:

Neither NES or SNES are Megadrive.

I thought the Michael Jackson game was good, although I never played it. I saw a demo on the GamesMaster you see, it had brilliant moody graphics (a bit like that DrWho game).

Ahhhh, GamesMaster :*I

Anyone played Road Runner for the SNES? That was an expensive game at the time of its release (£50), but was worth every penny if you ask me. It had faster than Sonic playability and the visuals were right out of a cartoon. The levels closer to the end of the game were rock hard to complete, particularly the martian ones, which were like mazes. Remember the underground mine stage? And the construction stage?

The boss set pieces were a stroke of gameplay brilliance too.

In a way, expensive game prices make you love games more as you can't afford not to like them. I remember playing some average NES game to death because I paid like £40 for it, and in the end I quite enjoyed it (was some RPG, can't remember the name).

Others titles I think are classics:

UniRally! SNES
Lost Vikings! SNES

The Mega drive was a absolute good console, but it never got the real attention it needed.
My personal favourites was the Sonic-games.
They was game which i played almost every day when the Sega vs Nintendo era lasted

*lol* i thought i was the only one!!!
i'm truly awful at that game. it's inexplicable really, i'm usually really good at platformers but that one's a mystery :)

*goes off to play Shadow Dancer*

megadrive and snes, ahhh(sigh), still got both them, still stuck on the same level on Earth Worm Jim as i was two years ago. Mines earnt a place next too my ps2 and x-box, right in the middle, but like every great or remotely good console, it has to go someday and as far as im concerned the megadrives was all too early...

Oh sweet Jesus, Moonwalker is diabolical.

'MICAHEL!!!'

OWWWW!

Tinny Smooth Criminl playing in the back...
