Having a retro night

peterattheboro · 13 Feb 2009 at 19:35

Sega Megadrive night of course!

What games on this format would make your night?

I have:

Sonic 1
Sonic 2
Golden Axe
Shinobi
Streets of Rage 1
Streets of Rage 2
Road Rash
Micro Machines
World Cup Italia '90
Super Streetfighter

These games were a big part of my childhood

Golden Axe and Streets of Rage trilogies would be the best to last a night, especially when co-op with another player.

If you can hunt down the MegaDrive versions of Contra, and Treasure classic, Gunstar Heroes, they make awesome but difficult co-op games too.

Streets of rage for me!

By yourself or with mates? With mates it has to be micro machines. Not sure which one it was where you could plug 2 extra pads into the cartride (2 I think), but that was awesome!! Tanks was the best

Return Fire (3d0)
Daley Thompsons decathalon (speccy)
Formula 1 (CRL) Speccy
Bubble Bobble (C64)
Kick Off 2 (amiga)
Pilotwings (snes)
Commando (c64)

These would do me.

Sonic 3 and Knuckles every time. Even years down the road, I'd still list it in my top ten games of all time!

blakka · 14 Feb 2009 at 11:53

Streets of Rage & Road Rash!

randal · 14 Feb 2009 at 12:01

All the games you mentioned, plus Desert Strike. If it was open to other consoles I'd add Bomberman and Goldeneye, and Super Aleste.

thevet · 14 Feb 2009 at 12:09

none on the megadrive..however the golden axe and shinobi coinop's is good!

You just reminded me of an amazing game. Road Rash!! I had totally forgot about it till now

Emlyn_Dewar · 14 Feb 2009 at 13:34

Sonic 2 and Streets of Rage 2 for me.

I can't get my Megadrive to work on my TV

Picture is a total mess unless I use Secam colour format which puts out black & white. Much sadness!

Talking of retro gaming nights I think we'll be all at it next week when Sega's Ultimate collection comes out. I hope games that supports more than one player will be live enabled.
