Great list, but it's kind of surprising that you choose Streets of Rage 1 over Streets of Rage 2.

Great video dude, just goes to show, you could easily make probably about 5 videos based on must have Mega Drive games, I completely forgot about some of the great games you just showed!

[KesMonkey]

A great list. You've included many of my favourites. My own list would replace Streets of Rage, Alien Soldier, Gunstar Heroes, and Chase HQ II with Streets of Rage 2, Shadow Dancer, Raiden, and Flashback. BTW, Strider is 8 megabits, not 8 megabytes. :)

[henrlima]

Comix zone, super hang on, castlevania, golden axe, donald in maui malard, flashback, generations lost... the list goes on forever 😂

[raeglinlegrand]

Whre are Shininng Force 2 and Streets of rage 2 ?

[eremgame]

So surprised by how much the tone of your voice changed since then. I like it old school!

[HyperTriggerEx]

So many great games that could make this list Hellfire, Thunderforce 3 & 4, Tatsujin, The Super Shinobi to name a few. You could do a whole show on shooters alone as there are some many great titles for the system. Treasure also proved that in the right hands that the Megadrive could produce games just as good as those found on the Super Famicom. Another great view demo by the way. Have you done a Saturn episode?

[vasileios]

Sonic 1, SOR 2, Alien Soldier, Vectorman, Shining Force 2, Eternal Champions, Castlevania Bloodlines, FIFA 95, Shinobi 3, Second Samurai

[mrbgb]

Ooooh I'd have Alien 3 in there! An absolute belter of a game with great graphics and music to boot!

[mapr]

1. Sonic
2. Streets of Rage
3. The Revenge Of Shinobi
4. Light Crusader
5. Comix Zone
6. World of Ilusion
7. Pagemaster
8. Eternal Champions
9. Super Street Fighter
10. Spot goes to Hollywood
11. Zombies ate my neighbors

[retrosoul]

I noticed you play music that doesn't belong with some of the games...a odd choice, not a bad one though. Also, Streets of Rage 2 objectively massacred the first game, deserved the attention more so I think, (SOR1 could have been passively mentioned as the one that started it all though).
You have 100% credit for mentioning Alien Soldier, not surprising as your accent gives it away, we stupidly didn't receive that incredible classic in the U.S. (because Sega...).
Other titles for anyone reading that are worth playing.
Shinobi series,
Thunder Force III & IV, Musha, Fire Shark, Steel Empire (shmups could go on there are many good ones but these are the best imo...)
Beyond Oasis, Super Hang-on, Shining Force series, Castlevania Bloodlines, C Hard Corps, Rocket Knight Adventures, Ristar, Monster World IV, Comix Zone, Rolling Thunder Series, Alisia Dragoon, Dynamite Headdy, Yuu Hakusho: Makyou Toitsusen (JP)

To limit the MD to only 10 best is an impossible task for me. My first console, still love it.
