Essential Game Gear titles

Ah, GG love...

(finally admits to owning four of them, and a few broken \ for spares)

Halley Wars is ace, Sonics obv, Physic world is an offbeat but fun platformer once you have played out the spiky one and the one with ears.

Outrun is bland, but Super Monaco was a giggle.

G-Loc had a certain charm, shinobi of course, oh and columns never fails to lose a few hours.

(if you haven't got the later GG that wouldn't accept it, try and pick up a TV tuner also)

Play your MS games on it.

It's quite good for snes games incar.... TV tuner has an AV input, find a 9v cigarette lighter adaptor and off you go...

The Master System version has brillant little puzzles and really rewards players who explores the areas. Whereas the Mega Drive was a race towards the end, the GG & MS version was all about exploring and finding the hidden emeralds and items.

Yeah, the Jungle Zone was great and I loved the last Zone too (the one that was like SMB3). The first Sonic on the GG was great. And the end music was superb.

There was an Amiga game called "Super Squeek" .. converted to the GG and renamed "Slider"

I remember it being a good game.

Not enough Sylvan Tale love here. What a game - much more fun than Zelda, I find (yes, I know, I'm not into Zelda much any more okay?).

Chakan was very cool, as was Slider!

From an original games perspective...

Alien Syndrome (not a port, more like a new game)
Ariel/Royal Stone aka Crystal Warriors
Fantasy Zone (same as AS)
GG Aleste 1-2
GG Shinobi 1-2
Illusion series (Castle/Land/Legend)
In the Wake of Vampire aka Master of Darkness

Phantasy Star Gaiden
Shadam Crusader aka Defenders of Oasis

hrmm...a bit heavy on the RPG/SLG side but besides a mountain of Sonic games not too much else action wise that wasn't a port of an SMS title or just plain bad.
