Default Classic Games

I downloaded a bunch of Megadrive ROMs this week and discovered that sadly, time has not been kind to many of the games I loved back in 1992.

What were your favourite games from back in the day?

Some Sega classics that are actually still quite good:
Streets of Rage 2
Sonic The Hedgehog
Road Rash
Speedball 2
Asterix (Master System)
Alex Kidd In Miracle World (Master System)
Double Dragon (Master System)
California Games (Master System)
Golden Axe
James Pond 2 - Codename Robocod
Donald Duck - Quackshot
Mickey Mouse - Castle Of Illusion
Cool Spot
Toejam & Earl
Michael Jackson's Moonwalker

Good times.

Holy shit! I'd forgotten about most of those games. I had all the Master System games you mention. Endless hours of fun.

A bit of an earlier reference. What about the Dizzy games for the Spectrum? Ace.

Bought my brother in law the Megadrive thing for the PS3 for his birthday, the games hold up well.

Yeah the Dizzy games were fantastic. Me and Marcus Dos Dedos played through them all again a few years ago.

Have to disagree there chimp, the old Megadrive classics are still just enjoyable as they were back in nineteen oatcake I find. Ploughing through PGA Tour Golf 2 at this very moment. Then it's onto Streets Of Rage 2...

sensible soccer was brilliant especially the way they changed the names cos they didnt have permission to use them... eg Ryan Goggs!

my fave from that period was sonic the hedgehog 2, i did have it on my pc a couple of years ago and for its time it still didnt look too bad today!

Nah when you turned NBA Jam on they had a delay on the word jam, so it went NBA Jam Jam Jam Jam. Two Crude Dudes was rare, beating the fuck out of a vending machine inbetween levels to get more health.
