This game was pretty weird for the PC. And I just saw it was on mega-drive:
Is it available on Genesis? Sorry the picture is huge.

I was sure it was, but the Sega-16 master list has it as EU only. Thank heavens for small favors; Rise of the Robots wasn't exactly the best. (Ebay only has Mega Drive versions, BTW.) The game has some awesome cover art, I'll give it that.

Yes, I guess the PAL version is more common. Mirage is a european devloper after all.
The art in the second game was nifty, but it stunk. I only bought the PC version years ago because it came with a CD Wallet, and it was a buck. Not a bad deal, IMO.The smell of scorched oil hangs in the air as a premonition of danger, while the engine gloriously shouts its war cry...

Hmm... I guess not after all. I looked all over the place and it looks like it was not. I probally saw a mockup box art or somethin.

Import it. I will tell you for a fact it will run on ANY Genesis system, even your CDX. The game has no region protection, so you can still buy it. :

just think of the last time nostalgia kicked you in the happy sack and multiply it by 100-that's how bad this game looks, feels and plays!

But you must be a masochist if you really intend to buy it. Rise of the Robots is well known for being one of the worst videogames ever!
For example, in single player mode, you can only play one robot. The enemies appear in a strict order, each one stronger than the one before. So in 2-player mode player 1 plays the standard robot and player 2 chooses one of the others. And the robot from stage 6 for example really is stronger than the ones before, even in two player-mode. Not to mention the awfull gameplay with a very limited move-palette. This is easily the worst Genesis beatém up.
Believe me, it´s just horrible, even more horrible than any Wisdom Tree game could ever be.Laugh and the world laughs with you. Weep and you weep alone.

Wait a second.... I recall that website. They have some unreleased games listed. Lufia was NEVER released for the Genesis, and neither was Indiana Jones - Greatest Adventures. Store looks like bunk, kid.

LOL that bad? I had it for PC and it was pretty cool. I'm actually more interested in just playing it again.

They probably have them listed as Genesis when they're mega-drive or something. I have yet to actually visit it. Originally Posted by David J.
