micro machines is the only game on the megadrive that stands the test of time!

i've got a fucking stack of classic games, shinobi, sonic, road rash, blah blah blah - and micro machines is the ONLY one that is genuinely still fun to play with your mates

i always thought sonic was shit - anyone with me on this?

earthworm jim, whoever posted it is a genius, another classic.


Sonic is OK, bit shit, best way to play is to go for speed, remember spending ages on the megadrive trying to perfect the stages into a single never stopping always flowing, run.

its all about when you finish a level on earthworm jim and the cow comes up and says ''well done''
that used to get me every time.
there's that one level when you play jim as a blind cave salamander...missioning around his own stomach

and the big green gun that is actually red :lol:

Star Tropics. I always found that game fun. Also, Maniac Mansion was pretty good too.
