What I got to play of it though, it seemed quite amazing. I should bug my friend to let me borrow it.
Oh yeah, as for my list... in no particular order:
Jet Set Radio Future
Panzer Dragoon Saga
Shinobi 3
Sonic 3 w/ Knuckles
Ristar
Nights
Comix Zone
Dragon Force
Rez
Phantasy Star IV
Panic
Typing of the Dead
Streets of Rage II
Space Channel 5 Part 2
Shining Force.
Unfortunatly I have never played/owned this gem. It is also rare to the point that I know I do not like RPG's enough to put it towards this. I will trade you Tobal no.2 for a used copy of the game and then perhaps it will make it on my list. :)Quote:

Ya know... as much hype as Sonic CD gets, I still think Sonic 3 w/ Knuckles is better.

A few of my favorites:
Sonic 2
Panzer Dragon Saga
Streets of Rage 2
Jet Grind Radio
Skies of Arcadia
Afterburner
And Rez wouldn't even be on the list. I'm generally down with the TNL concensus on games, but the love that REZ gets is just unfounded IMO.
ORTA > REZ
Yeah, I agree too. Gameplay-wise it was just better, as well as level design-wise. I'd even argue graphically, besides the special stages and FMV of Sonic CD.Quote:

Speaking for myself, it was difficult to pull games out of my ass. I simply forgot it.Quote:

Here are a few Sega titles I enjoyed. I cant really think of 15. Here's the top 9 Sega games.
01. Jet Grind Radio
02. Virtual On: OT
03. Virtua Cop
04. Nights
05. Samba De Amigo
06. Sonic 2
07. Shenmue 2
08. Chu Chu Rocket
09. Comix Zone
With only one from a series:
1. Sonic The Hedgehog(SG) - Still the perfect platformer after all these years and equaled only by Nintendo's best. Sonic CD is better in some ways but it's worse in others.
2. Shinobi 3(SG) - The greatest ninja game of all time. Zeed never tasted so good.
3. Jet Grind Radio(DC) - The soundtrack is overrated big-time but the gameplay and style are beyond brilliant.
4. Shenmue 2(DC) - Beautiful, immersive, and containing classic Sega arcade games. Out Run and Space Harrier especially rock and I'm going to cheat and include them here.
5. Wonder Boy 3(SMS) - Possibly the greatest of all 8-bit console games. It has aged incredibly well.
6. Golden Axe(SG) - The graphics and sound aren't as good as the arcade but I think this version has better gameplay.
7. Panzer Dragoon Saga(SS) - This puts most RPGs to shame with its atmosphere, battle system and lack of whiny Square-brand brats.
8. Thunder Blade(Arc) - Why won't Sega re-release it? Because it's not a Suzuki game?
9. NiGHTS(SS)
10. Safari Hunt(SMS) - There are plenty of great SMS gun games and this one was always my most played and still is.
11. Streets of Rage 2(SG)
12. Kenseiden(SMS) - I always return to this samurai classic.
13. Phantasy Star 4(SG) - It's hard to pick a favorite Phantasy Star. The original was the best for its time and I love PSO but I feel PSIV is the best overall.
14. Galaxy Force 2(Arc)
15. Fantasy Zone(Arc)
Damn that was hard to do. I mostly just included stuff developed by Sega. There is a Westone game in there but they practically counted as a Sega team. It also feels weird leaving out Virtua Fighter but I'm just not into fighting games much anymore.
Yeah, I'm in awe of that too. It's not a bad game but it wouldn't make my top 50 Sega games.Quote:
