Which is better? Mystic Quest vs Phantasy Star III

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest and Phantasy Star III don’t have much in common. Beyond having different settings, they have very little in common aside from turn based combat. This is another starter RPG vs one targeting older fans of the genre. One is also a more traditional sequel. I have a newfound appreciation for bothContinue reading “Which is better?

Which is better? Final Fantasy vs Phantasy Star III

Phantasy Star III and Final Fantasy are both turn-based RPGs that I’ve changed my mind about over the years. One of them is a game that I’ve become very tired of playing, and the other is something that I’ve gotten a newfound interest in. Both are good games, and they have some great things inContinue reading “Which is better? Final Fantasy vs Phantasy Star III”

A Great Version of a Classic Game |Monopoly

It is really cold out here in Michigan, so I decided to fire up my Genesis and play Monopoly. I normally like board games, especially video game versions of them. I have a few variations of Monopoly, but I decided to give this one a try. This is one of the classic games, and itContinue reading “A Great Version of a Classic Game |Monopoly”

The Best Games on the Genesis (2026 Update)

A few weeks ago, I looked at the best SNES games that I’ve played so far. I’ve also looked at the NES games that I’ve played. Now, I want to look at the Sega Genesis games that I’ve played and make a list of those. I don’t think I’ve played as many games for thisContinue reading “The Best Games on the Genesis (2026 Update)”

Mutant League Hockey | Good but Not Great

Mutant League Hockey is the second and final game in the short-lived Mutant League series. After this game, EA abandoned the series for some reason. I can only assume that it didn’t catch on in the way that EA wanted it to, or that they wanted to focus on their other sports games. Hockey isContinue reading “Mutant League Hockey | Good but Not Great”

Mutant League Football on the Genesis is Great!

Mutant Football League is a Sega Genesis/Mega Drive exclusive and is a fantastic arcade football game. This game has a wild story, which isn’t something you normally see in a sports game. The developers explained why all these creatures have gathered together to play American football. This game was released in 1993, and a yearContinue reading “Mutant League Football on the Genesis is Great!”

Shanghai II: Dragon’s Eye, a Simple but Fun Puzzle game

Shanghai II: Dragon’s Eye is a very simple puzzle game. It isn’t really a sequel as much as it is a graphical improvement over the previous game. This is a fun little puzzle game, but it lacks content. This is a version of Mahjong Solitaire. There are a few different layouts, but it is essentiallyContinue reading “Shanghai II: Dragon’s Eye, a Simple but Fun Puzzle game”

The Punisher: One of the Best Genesis Beat’em Ups

The Punisher is a good, but basic beat’em up. It is more grounded than the other superhero beat’em ups from the 1990s. This is a Capcom beat’em up, and it was ported to the Sega Genesis. I couldn’t find any information on a possible SNES port. This is an exclusive game for the Genesis, butContinue reading “The Punisher: One of the Best Genesis Beat’em Ups”

The Best Home Alone Game is on the Genesis

Home Alone was one of the first movies I can remember seeing in the theater. Every year, my dad would go deer hunting, and my mom would take us to the movies. We didn’t go to the movies that often, so it was very memorable. I only have one memory of the NES game, andContinue reading “The Best Home Alone Game is on the Genesis”

Super Thunder Blade on the Sega Genesis

Let’s take a look at Super Thunder Blade. This is one of the launch titles for the Sega Genesis, and it is one of the weaker ones. It isn’t too different from Space Harrier II in terms of gameplay. It is an arcade port, and not a very good one. This game would’ve been aContinue reading “Super Thunder Blade on the Sega Genesis”
