[Jedi Master Thrash]

Old School:

X: Super Mario Brothers (NES)

X: Bubble Bobble (NES)

X: Kaboom (Atari 2600)

X: Breakout (Atari 2600)

X: Midnight Magic (Atari 2600)

X: Punisher (NES)

X: Tetris (NES)

X: Contra (NES)

X: River Raid (Atari 2600)

X: Dr. Mario (NES)

New School:

X: Eternal Champions CD (Sega CD)

X: Sonic (Genesis/Sega CD)

X: Batman Returns (driving levels only) (Sega CD)

X: AH-3 Thunderstrike (Sega CD)

X: Doom (32x)

X: X-Wing/Tie Fighter (PC)

X: Dark Forces (PC)

X: Star Trek 25th Anniversary (PC)

X: Slime Volleyball (PC)

X: Unfilled "Shooter" spot (I haven't played them all yet) (Genesis/Sega CD)

For those who wonder why genesis is "new school": in my interpretation of reality, video gaming died in '96, along with movies and american music. That was the switching point, when video games became style over substance, movies became flash over characters, and all the good old bands sold out. Since then, we've been forced to either embrace retro everything, or live with blasphemy such as the PS, PS2, X-Box, Star Wars special editions and Jar Jar Binks, Backstreet Boys and Brittany Spears, St. Anger, The Medallion, and hardcore-grunge-rap-whiner-stoner rock.

The only post-apocalyptic school games worth mentioning are the Dance Dance games.

Cloud, NBA courtside? come on now, there are TONS of better games than that on N64. i hope there is some VERY significant sentimental value there or something. And i'm still amazed you found 10 games even worth playing on 32x 😛

[post=123006]Quoted post[/post]​

I love Courtside. Great game.

Ten games even worth playing on the 32x? You know how much I love the damn thing, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that I managed to find ten great games for it.

:thumbs-up:

 

[it290]

Still, games like Kolibri and Blackthorne beat the bloody snot out of games like Cosmic Carnage and Star Wars Arcade.

 

[Cloud121]

Cosmic Carnage kicks ass. I love that game. Great music too.

I have never played Kolibri or Blackthorne. I'm sure they'd be up on the list though.

Sega 32x > You.

Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance

Super Mario Bros. 3
