I'm 38 and was a Sega owner. The nostalgia in this video was overwhelming. Thank you :)

Streets of Rage 2 is not only one of the most important video games in the history of the genre, but it is truly a magnum opus simulation of how to live a successful and valuable life. To this day, I still engage in fights with random street toughs, before beating up mailboxes and abandoned steel drums, in the vain hope of finding that all important, life healing road apple or street turkey!

Earthworm Jim pushed the processor to its limits and maybe even beyond— but the result was fluid, with memorable music and sound effects that were akin to Looney Tunes… this game had it all—nostalgia, replay value, and that addictive gameplay. All set in a hilarious, zany universe of its own. Therefore, that would’ve been my number one.

"The Contra of the Sega Genesis" is Contra Hard Corps, lol

[jaminSVT]

Toejam and earl is my fav sega genesis game. It’s such a weird rouge style game, but is so cool. Plus, the soundtrack absolutely slaps!

[philiphowell]

Some of my personal favourites - Shining Force 2, Comix Zone, Shadowrun, Road Rash 3, Golden Axe I and II, Mutant League Hockey, Pirates Gold. These are all awesome.

[LordJeet]

I think Castlevania Bloodlines is extremely underrated and would definitely be there on my list. I loved yours too

[EvilHienSan]

Hmmm my top 10, in no particular order, would be:
Gunstar Heros
Streets of Rage 2
Castlevania Bloodlines
Rocket Knight Adventures
Phantasy Star 4
Beyond Oasis
Shinobi 3
Contra Hard Corps (JP)
Shining Force 2
Landstalker

[PhuryousOne]

Revenge of Shinobi might have been my favorite game on the system. Everything about it was great. The music was phenomenal.

10. Zombies Ate My Neighbors
9. TMNT: Hyperstone Heist
8. Ghouls N Ghosts
7. Phantasy Star IV
6. Lightening Force: Quest for the Darkstar
5. Rocket Knight Adventures

[stugotz]

Great list. For me I would add Earthworm Jim, Vectorman, Comix Zone, Light Crusader and Spider-Man and Venom: Maximum Carnage

[ericnorway]

Phantasy Star IV and Sword of Vermilion were also great. I love the music in Streets of Rage 2!

[inflintity]

My list in no particular order would definitely have Phantasy Star 2&4, TNMNT, Mortal Kombat 2&3, Contra Hard Corps, Earthworm Jim 1&2, Aladdin, Eternal Champions, Mutant League Football, NBA Jam, Dessert & Jungle Strike, Thunder Force 3&4, Xeno Crisis, Jurassic Park, NHL 94
There are so many great Genesis games, any list is a good list.
Great memories.

[rdrap]

Finally someone added Alien Storm to a top Genesis games list. Love that game and love your videos Riggs. Keep ‘em coming.

[someoneout-there]

I think my favorite game from the Genesis was Echo the Dolphin. As a kid, that music gave me the shivers. Some of the best sounds and background music. I thought it was scary too. .😂

[sinthetic]

I always felt Gain Ground never got the love it deserved. It's really a great strategy/puzzle game dressed up like an action/shooter.

[LJLMETAL]

Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Mortal Kombat 1+2, Cool Spot, Ecco The Dolphin, Ecco: The Tides Of Time, and Royal Rumble are awesome Sega Genesis Games.

[atranfanatic]

Castlevania: Bloodlines, Road Rash I & II, Truxton, Sonic Spinball, TMNT Hyperstone Heist, Aladdin, The Lion King, Comix Zone, ThunderForce III and the list goes on. lol

[ronkropf]

Love the list as well as other people's picks. My personal fave is the original Toejam and Earl. 2 player split screen and random worlds everytime you play. Great replay value and fun game for all.
