I think it’s more iconic.

Sonic and Micro Machines made it. I'm satisfied.

Aside from Golden Axe which I've never really liked that much , that's a pretty good top 10.

I actually give you all credit for trying to post a top ten. I posted this same topic on a facebook group and most could not even begin to list a top ten due to, what they believe, is a top ten that doesnt exist. In other words a system that doesnt have that many good games.

Facebook is cesspit of fuckwits. Had you posted a "top ten pics of cats in funny hats" topic you would have been swamped with entries.

Or Top Ten Lame Inspirational Messages with Minions you'd never stop getting entries.

That is because we are better and older. Like all retro classics.

Guys. You’re replying to a bot FFS.

Nah, gommywimranu is my buddy bro.

Never had a Mega Drive back in the day but can we all agree that Golden Axe was and still is and will always be a bit gooseberry fool?

No, we can’t.

I wouldn't have put in in the Top 10 myself but it's a solid game.

Top 2 in this list are two of the absolute pillars of my gaming childhood. For those few years in the early-mid 90s SEGA were incredible. :wub:

Dreamcast years are almost up there as well, shame they never got the reward it deserved :cry:

Golden Axe. :dread:

I think we can all agree that it's certainly no Altered Beast. :datass:
