Tengen had a huge presence on the Genesis, offering plenty of Atari classics that were very close to the originals. In some cases, they were actually better. Gauntlet IV was one such title, and it added to the already awesome multi-player mayhem by adding a ton of extra modes and full four-player support. It just didn’t get any better than this.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the last 20 years, you’ve undoubtedly played Paperboy. A little slice of Americana that was put into digital form, it gave youths everywhere free reign to smash people’s windows without having to worry about consequences. Thankfully, Tengen gave Genesis owners a port that was very faithful to the original, and we have a full review that shows how they compare.
Most super hero games turn out, well… less than good. Ah hell, let’s be honest. Most of them just plain suck.

To see how bad it can get, read our full review.
An arcade smash and Genesis original, Super Thunder Blade defied the system’s lack of hardware scaling and showed what some good programming could accomplish. We here at Sega-16 are big fans, and have a full review for your perusal. Come on in and share the love.
Say what you want about the 32X, but there were some great games made for it. After Burner Complete is a great example of what could be done with the hardware in the right hands. Check out our full review of one of the best home versions in the series ever, and yet another reason you should reconsider getting that 32X (seriously!).
