I really like the following: * Sonic the Hedehog 1-3, Knuckles * Sword of Vermillion * Phantasy Star 2-4 * Streets of Rage 1-3 * Dr. Robotnick's Mean Bean Machine * Revenge of Shinobi * Columns * Golden Axe * Ecco the Dolphin 1 & 2 * Castlevania: Bloodlines * Contra: Hard Corps * Earthworm Jim 1 & 2 * Eternal Champions * Cool Spot * Gairies * Arrow Flash * Forgotten Worlds * Thunderforce 2-4 * Phelios * Slaughterhouse series * Valis 3 * Raiden Trad * Mickey Mouse: Castle of Illusion & World of Illusion * Shadow of the Beast 1 & 2 * Michael Jackson's Moonwalker * Sol-Deace * The Humans * Strider * Vectorman 1 & 2 * Insector X * Flicky * Blaster Master 2 * Rainbow Islands * Ristar Those are just some of my favorites. |

I suggest most of those already posted above me plus a few more that aren't listed or not really listed: - Landstalker or Crusader of Centy (especially if you like a Zelda styled game) - Shining Force 1 and 2 (really good strategy RPGs, especially the second game) - Ranger X if you want a cool action game that was on the later years of the Genesis and pushes the console graphically. - M.U.S.H.A if you like challenging shooters. - Pirates! Gold if you want something totally original and different then anything else the Genesis has to offer. Similar to the more recent Pirates games by Sid Meier - Mutant League Football and Hockey for fun and crazy sports games for the Genesis. - NHL 94- still probably one of the best sports games ever created. Tight controls and just so much fun to play against a friend. Started the one-timers. - Adventures of Batman and Robin for frantic and exciting 2 player action. Great Soundtrack as well (Jesper Kyd of Assassins Creed series and Hitman series). - Ghouls N' Ghosts -Perfect Arcade ports to a grueling yet satisfying game. - Gunstar Heroes - one of the best games of the 16 bit generation as a whole. Feels like Contra on Steroids with anime influence. - Herzog Zwei or Dune II Battle for Arrakis if you like Strategy games and don't mind micro managing with a controller versus a mouse. (or you could try and track down the mouse for the Genesis but I'm not sure if it would work with these games or not). - Rocket Knight Adventures or Sparkster - The series just got a reboot on for download on current consoles and it might be worth checking out the history of the series. - Toe Jam and Earl is a good 2 player game. Wouldn't really recommend the second one (panic on planet funkotron) so much though. -Mega bomberman- Pretty much like any other Bomberman game, so if you like the series look to grab that one. - Aladdin - A very good platform/action game if you liked the movie at all in the slightest, this is surprisingly a fantastic game on the Genesis. -Warsong - An overlooked RPG that is actually Langrisser in Japan. A great addition to your collection to sit up there with Shining Force and Shining Force II. Might be a little harder to find this one now. Might add more, but there are a ton more to still choose from.
