Bonkers

Disney and Sega go back a long way. Mickey Mouse practically lived on the Genesis, and a slew of other properties found their way onto the console. Among the licensed properties to get a game of its own was Bonkers, based on the short-lived cartoon series that featured a former cartoon star turned cop who patrols the Toontown of Who Framed Roger Rabbit fame in search of escaped criminals. Sounds like something to look forward to for seasoned platform gamers, right? Oh, did I mention it’s a Sega Club game? Yeah… can’t win ’em all, I guess.

Tomcat Alley

It’s time to fly into the danger zone! Sega’s Tomcat Alley takes the full throttle action of jet fighters and mixes it with… full-motion video? Yep, and suprisingly, it isn’t all that bad. In fact, Tomcat Alley is, dare I say it, enjoyable.

NBA Live ’95

Basketball was a big part of the Genesis’ success, and Electronic Arts lead the charge with its superb NBA Live series. So powerful was the impact felt by the franchise’s thunderous 1994 debut that the brand name became an EA staple and continues to sell well today. We have a full review of the first game, NBA Live ’95, one of the premier games in the genre on the console, so read up and get ready to get your B-ball on!

Sega 32X Reviews

Cosmic Carnage

One of the few fighters created just for the 32X was an obscure game called Cosmic Carnage. It was released only on the 32X, so it is virtually unknown due to that add-on’s failure (it wasn’t the only game to suffer such a fate). A beat-em-up with little innovation or any special qualities to make it stand out in the crowd Cosmic Carnage wasn’t anything special and if you haven’t played it, then don’t worry because you haven’t really missed out on anything.
