I still have a Mega Drive and a ton of games...well, I say still have, I took them round a mates one night, left them there and haven't seen them since. That was four years ago, it feels slightly trivial to bring it up now. Plus I hardly ever see him. And he probably wouldn't remember what I was talking about.  |

Altered Beast is immense. You also need to buy california games.

I picked up one of these 'plug-straight-into-the-tv' games things with Sensi, Cannon Fodder and Mega-lo-mania recently. Happy days!! Sensi rocks. Score from pretty much anywhere and very large score lines. Take note FIFA and PES! |

Hmmm, I think todays ultra-realistic football games could learn a thing or two from games of old. Take Match Day on the ZX Spectrum for example, you could always score from the same position just past the centre circle, a couple of touches from kick off and you could unfurl a fabulous 40 yard piledriver. That is how I took the fantastic Ritman Rovers (thats right isnt it?) to all-conquering footballing glory. Also if you took the ball to the goal line and waited for the clock counter to tick halfway between 89 and 90, then poke the ball home, the game used to restart at 90 mins and carry on playing until the clock got to 99 and then it would disintigrate. Fabulous. Ahhh those halcyon days of old......try it home, simply go to any spectrum emulator site and knock yer self out... not literally of course, there would be no fun in that. |

Streets of Rage was clearly the best game, that or the Mickey Mouse ones.
That's a magic bargain for 7 sheets.

i second that. what was the one called where you fought troll type things, something axe? golden axe? that was ace. i remember paying about £70 for virtua racing, the first all 3-d console game. |
