    I still have my old Genisis, the only games I've kept for it were Revenge of Shinobi and Shinobi 3. I never really liked any others.

    I still play my old 8 bit Nintendo more. I still haven't beat Mike Tyson on Punch Out or the first Castlevania. I've been trying for 14 years now :(

    Yes. Maybe trade it in for a post-Lewis cartidge. ;)


    EDIT: Or possibly just have them load in his new stats on the old one, at a Sega factory.

    I love the old Genesis games, I've been playing Shining Force 1&2 on my emulator for weeks. Already beat them about 3 times each, maybe I'll try it without the gameshark codes now :p

    There was this one game, I think it is called King of the Monsters, where you were a Godzilla or King Kong like character, fighting other monsters in cities. You could throw buildings and cars at your opponent. That was kind of a fun game.

    I also highly recommend Earthworm Jim, Smash TV, Roadblasters, and Zombies Ate My Neighbors.

    Good luck!

    I wish EA Sports would bring out a modern version of Mutant League Football. I still remember runnig down the left sideline for a winning score against my brother only to fall into space as the field have a whole in it.

    I still prefered CyberBall.

    Yeah, EA could use the Madden engine. It could be a brilliant game.

    I can't remember who the developer is, but a similar game to King of Monsters is on the way to the Gamecube, with a host of Godzilla characters, etc. Keep an eye out for it.

    I forgot to mention Golden Axe as well. There were some great games on the Genesis. Let's not forget the Toejam & Earl series, either. I cannot wait to play the newest installment on my Xbox.

    I think that Godzilla game was King of The Monsters and it wasn't a godzilla game

    That new godzilla game looks pretty wicked I wonder if it's an upgraded copy of Godzilla Generations that was for dreamcast. Any way the G-man is back!!!

    I'm still waiting for someone to say toe Jam & Earl 3 will come to PC, rather than being stuck on XBox,
    I loved the original game, Earl was the man

    "There was this one game, I think it is called King of the Monsters, where you were a Godzilla or King Kong like character, fighting other monsters in cities. You could throw buildings and cars at your opponent. That was kind of a fun game."

    Wasn't that on the original NES? I think they may have released an updated version on the PSX a little while ago. :confused:

    Earthworm Jim was cool. Maximum Carnage was great, better than "Separation Anxiety." I still get nostalgic thinking about the old MK and Sonic games though (have you seen the latest installments? Almost unrecognizable).

    Waning Drill, that is Rampage your thinking about (maybe)

    King Of The Monsters was originally on the Neo-Geo.. I think it was ported to the MegaDrive.
