Sega Genesis Collection - hands-on

At the tail end of 80s, the Sega corporation introduced us to the 16-bit machin꧑e-god Genesis. Although this ancient deity decayed into obscurity long ago, Sega Genesis Collection seeks to reconvert the American herd with a compilation of 28 games released between 1989 and 1🦂996.

Video knights of the Genesis Crusades must fondly remember Golden Axe, Shadow Dancer, Phantasy Star II, Sonic and Ecco, along with their sequels. But beyond headlines like butchering a leviathan made of pulsating flesh in Shinobi III✃, you'll find a few lesser-known jewels in this side-scrolliꦡng celebration.

There's timed bank-heists in Bonanza Brothers, where you'll shoot riot-geared cops and watch them twitch on the ground. You'll use your stretchy yo-yo arms to swing through rows of giant bamboo stalks in Ristar. And you'll punt sewer thugs through paper-wall comic book panels in Comix Zone. Silly and straightforward.
