Let's Look at Every 5-Star Sega Genesis Game
Рет қаралды 112,871
Жыл бұрынI do love me some Sega Genesis. I've noticed Genesis, more than Nintendo or Super Nintendo, has more varying opinions on which games are great and which ones aren't so this list is comprised mostly from people's comments in my previous video. Let's have a look!

General Chaos that was mentioned by another person in the comments is definitely a hidden gem. The Lost Vikings is also an amazing game that should be mentioned as a five star game. Not sure if it’s considered a hidden gem, but you should definitely mention it in a future video.

Ranger X 5. Phantasy Star II 6. Phantasy Star IV 7. Beyond Oasis 8. Shining Force 9. Shining Force II 10. Shining in The Darkness 11. Strider 12. Ghouls n' Ghosts 13. Herzog Zwei 14. M.U.S.H.A. 15. NHL 94 16. Mutant League Football 17. Mutant League Hockey 18. Crusader of Centi 19. Ecco The Dolphin 20. Shadorun Bonus- 1. Zero Tolerance 2. Outrun 3. Toe Jam and Earl 4. Super Fantasy Zone 5.

One game that is NEVER mentioned on things like this is Crusader of Centy AKA Soleil/Ragnacenty. It's a Link to the Past clone but with a really unique mechanic where you combine different animal companions to get different powers and mix and match them in unique ways. Have you played it? It's genuinely great and it's honestly one of my favourite Genesis games and I'd rate it 4.5 stars at least.

Yes, you're allowed to sing along while playing Moonwalker, but only if it's the Weird Al versions. For obscure titles worth a look, I think Cyborg Justice is pretty neat; it's a Brawler where you build a robot to fight others, but you can rip their arm off and steal it or even rip off their torso and drain it for extra health and lives. Jewel Master is a fairly straightforward Platformer, but with a neat ring system that you can mix and match for different attacks.

I think Kid Chameleon is 5 stars more because it's replay value. There are so many levels and so many paths to reach the final stage, that turns it in a brand new game evertime you play it. About Shinobi III, I have to mention that it has a KILLER soundtrack. If you have a friend that likes prog rock/metal, just say to him that you discovered a new band, but, put the "Shinobi III OST" to play instead. 😉

Throwing in a couple personal faves into the mix, but the wombo-combo of Genesis-exclusive Disney titles in Quackshot and World of Illusion were just something else. World of Illusion's a bit too easy, but there's multiple paths depending on which character you play and the co-op mode is unparalleled. Quackshot's just super, super fun (arguably a bit Metroidvania-ish?) and is decently challenging as well. 30 years later and I'm still coming back to these titles routinely.
