Tired of riding your bike and pounding in other racer’s heads in Road Rash? Then ditch the bike, lace up those inline skates, and get ready for some Skitchin’. Electronic Arts’ variation on its popular motorcycle theme burst onto the Genesis with great visuals and a rocking soundtrack, and it remains a favorite among many gamers to this day. See if you can grind (ha!) your way through our full review and get all the details.
Street basketball is well-represented in video games. From early classics like Jordan vs. Bird to the immensely popular NBA Jam series, there are quite a few games from which to choose (so long as you ignore White Men Can’t Jump on the Jaguar!). Jammit, Virgin Games’ entry on the court, may lack the real players of NBA Jam, but it sure does make up for it in attitude!
The Governator was the consumate action stars, and before his mind turned to politics, he gave us such classics as the first two Terminator films, Predator, Commando, and a James Cameron vehicle called True Lies. Setting espionage against a backdrop of explosions and empty bullet casings, the movie was great popcorn fun, something that seems to easily lend itself to a run-‘n-gun game.
The short-lived Sega Club brand encompased a few scant cartridges, and it even managed to make its way to the Sega CD before disappearing entirely when Sega made the jump to the Saturn. Among its offerings was Kids on Site, an FMV title that had children working at a construction site and using heavy machinery to complete different tasks. A bit too simple for the older set, the kiddies at least had the chance to squash someone with a steam roller. Wait… what?
We here at Sega-16 are hoping everyone had a happy holidays, and we’ve put down the egg nog long enough to update one last time this week with a review of WWF Raw for the 32X.

We’ve some insight on the first two questions in our full review. As for the third… well, we won’t belabor the obvious.
