The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Nothing comes between a Segaphile and his Genesis, not time, money, distance, even uncooperative big brothers. Not even the dark confines of basement storage can keep a true 16-bit fan from the great console, and gamers are sure to find a way to get hold of the console so they can play the games they love. Case in point: contributor Smee Lesko shares his tale of how he never stopped until the once-family Genesis was his and his alone.
Everyone likes board games! Among them, one is king, and it’s pretty tough to beat when it comes to video game renditions of these American classics. I’m talking about the one and only Monopoly, a game that everyone knows. It’s time to take those hotels into the digital realm, friends!

When Arnold said that he’d be back, he didn’t necessarily mean in a good game. Flying Edge’s Terminator 2: Judgement Day had the player take on the dream roll of the Governator himself, as he strove to save John Conner from the more advanced T-1000. With sluggish gameplay, outrageous mission objectives, and some of the most obnoxious bikers ever to curse a video game, it’s amazing the world didn’t end up as one big radioactive crater. Still, there are enough good points to at least keep you plugging away for a while.
WHATCHA GONNA DO, BROTHER? Hulkamania’s runnin’ wild on your Genesis in Flying Edge’s Super Wrestlemania! Itching for some wrasslin’ action from the good ol’ days?

Read on and remember to say your prayers and eat your vitamins!
