Syndicate was always my favourite. Thank you the vid and thank you for the memories :p

I can remember playing many of these games for hours and hours back in the day. I always remember how they were so colourful and vibrant. They didn’t have much to work with in comparison with modern technology, so they tended to go more for fun and unique characters and colourful art styles.

Where Sunset Riders? Michael Jackson Moonwalker? MK3? Also like a good game.

WTF No X-Men 2 Clone wars!!!

Best game for me: Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure, i used to play as kid... those were the happiest moments of my life !!!

love watching these vids hoping to recognize something about the 5 seconds or so per game and then looking it up.

The fact that Herzog Zwei is so high on this list makes me happy.

I played ranger X as a kid and haven't been able to remember what it was called for decades - until now. Thanks for the video!

Robocop vs terminator Battletech Batman forever Jungle/urban/desert strike Umk 3 Rock roll racing Cannon fodder True lies Doom trooper Zero toleranse Sonic 3D General chaos Где ?

I played at least 30 of these games. My life consisted of late 80's early 90's Cartoons, Hip-Hop, BBQ's, and a whole lot of Sega.

Where's Street of Rage 1 ? :o

Damn..no boogerman. That was my absolute favorite.

I remember playing Aladdin

Sonic 2 at 61 And for that reason, I'm out Sonic 1, Batman and Robin, and Zombies ate my Neighbors are also too low, but less egregious. I do appreciate the love for Pirates Gold though.

I played or at least I know a lot of this 100. There are a lot of games and, even if I never completed a lot of them -i never was very good at videogames tbh, and less when I was a children-, it was nice to see them again. I really love that my favourite games are in the TOP 3! I missed Home Alone.

What a blast from the past. I remember being in love with Castle of Illusion, granted it was so hard to beat as a kid.

Sega genesis is my lovely console! Thank u for video!

I loved seen Cruzader of Centry made it on this list. So underrated game. But still think that there are way to many shoot em up games on this lists, and a lot of classics and gems that didn't made it.

Comix Zone, Puyo Puyo and Pirates of Dark Waters were my faves

1. Toy Story 2. Battletech 3. International SuperStar Soccer Deluxe 4. Mortal Kombat 3(IV) Ultimate (has fatality brutality etc) 5. Warlock (excellent ambiance) 6. Battletoads 7. The Lost World Jurassic Park 8. The Lion King 9. Desert Strike some other perfect sega games

I love u ssoooooooooo much i found my old game there i am very happy

Legend SEGA ChildhoOd memories.

Sonic 2 is way to low on this list!

I remember putting HOURS into ToeJam and Earl and never really knowing what I was doing

My god these are so retro !! But I'm looking for a third person game that I played in the past, it was in Japanese so I dont know its english name 😞 its pretty amusing, you journey through space and the bosses are so huge and scary 😂 wondering what game was that....?

Well, if I had something like a Mega Drive Top 10 list, it would go thus: 10. Earth Worm Jim 9. Cool Spot 8. World of Illusion 7. Road Rash 6. Pinocchio 5. Aladdin 4. The Lion King 3. Castle of Illusion 2. Sonic 2 1. Sonic 1 (always my top favourite game of the lot)

Sonic 2 at around 61? I find that hard to believe.

Sega Genesis is my best memory, thank you for the video. When a video with 100 other games

Sonic 2 and Vectorman are too low for my tastes but this was a lot of fun! I found a couple games I never played that look amazing that I'm gonna look to pick up! Thanks!

they forgot the Ren & Stimpy games, Two Crude dudes, Robocop vs terminator, Xmen clone wars, Altered Beast and so many more!

I played almost all of these games from this list. SEGA GENESIS is Love. SEGA GENESIS is Life. ❣️❣️❣️

Road rash, Dynamite Heady, 7up game, and Mickeys castle of illusion were my faves!

oh god my childhood! good video

Kid Chameleon will always hold an special place in my childhood

Poltergeist being on this list instantly makes it legit

I remember playing sonic, shinobi, street fighter, streets of rage, contra & road rash on sega genesis. There are games i also played missing here: jurassic park, terminator & michael jackson's moonwalker.

What about Earthworm Jim 2?! Love this game. Good video though

#19 sent me into nostalgia meltdown. Why did I love that damn dolphin game so much?

You can really see the awesome blast processing in these games.

Wow there were some games i didn't even remember i played... if i hadn't seen this video, those memories would have nleft my head forever

great list thanks

No Altered Beast, REALLY?!?!

Bonanza Brothers, Altered Beast and Cannon Fodder I would add. A good few games in there I've not heard of but also a few that feature on the SNES and are arguably better versions. Gotta love the sound of the Genesis though. Dirty stabby 90's dance goodness.

Found an old Sega Genesis at a freaking Dollar Store. Obviously bought it; obviously played it because we never got rid of our games; obviously lost, a lot. Some of those games were way harder than I remember...

Great collection. I just bought the Sega Genesis flashback classics console.

This is the most random list of games ever. I can't even defend it.

I remember Vectorman being pushed HARD by Sega...they wanted him to be a Sonic/Mario type of mainstay...2 really good games though

Genesis was a retro console never introduced to me during childhood. So now i'm going to have to play all the games in this top 100 list.

Loved this list! Kinda sad that Zool, Valis III, and High Seas Havoc weren't on it though. :(

Man I absolutely loved my Genesis system. I would spend countless hours enjoying the many great wonderful video games that Sega had offered us. High quality and more expensive than other games at the time. Buying a Genesis game was an investment in enjoyment. As I recall their games were also extremely challenging and strategic. Hail to the good ol days. Long live Genesis!

Sonic 2 was the best!

Played a few Mega Drive games via compilations on the PS2. Love the Sonic the Hedgehog games (Sonic 3 & Knuckles is my fave) as well as Streets of Rage 1 and 2, Shinobi 3, Comix Zone and Vectorman 1 and 2. Pretty good list of the best Mega Drive games.

Had no idea Pirates Gold was on Mega Drive. Loved that game on PC.

Who remembers playing road rash😂😂

Sonic 2 not even in the Top 50??? Otherwise, great video

THANKS FOR SHARING

I was worried when Marvel Land showed up on this list, but having Landstalker in the top 5 makes this a top 100 list akin to my own. 'Stalker is the most underrated Genesis title of all time and one I spent months on as a kid before the internet was a household utility. Damn that Greenmaze!!!

Street of rage is my childhood🤩

Here is my Top 10 Sega Genesis games of all time. In no order. 1. El Viento 2. Chakan 3. Street Fighter 2 4. Super Street Fighter 2 5. Mortal Kombat 2 6. Mortal Kombat 3 7. Lion King 8. Maximum Carnage 9. Golden Axe 10. Altered Beast

Always surprised to Herzog Zwei on anyone's list. It will always be my favorite Genesis game. Far ahead of its time, I was so lucky a friend had it back in '89 because I probably would have never seen or played it.

#58 Elemental Master!! That game was my Jam way back in the 3rd grade days....

9:00 estaba esperando a que apareciera xd

Is the mouse cursor intended trolling? i thought it was mine lol

Thank God for sega channel that was always the best way to see games....plus blockbuster omg am I old

- Altered Beast - James Pond - Jurassic Park - Puggsy - Alex kidd - Castle Of Illusion

Nice List. Sonic 2 should have been higher. Definite Sub though!

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 you put it at #61 WHAT!!!!

Just watched the e first minute. Madden 95 and fifa 95 were the best games Ohhh man general chaos . You bringing back memories

Nice!! Thanks!!

Aladdin is the BEST ....

Where’s Gynoug? That shooter was ace.

As a kid, I had Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Aladdin, Mortal Kombat 2, Sonic the Hedgehog, Ecco: The Tides of Time, Streets of Rage 2, Street Fighter 2: Special Champion Edition, and Sonic 3 and Knuckles, among other games. How could you leave out Super Street Fighter 2? It was my favorite Genesis game ever.

Just a handful of these can be called games and they are iconic.

I am very disappointed that there was no Judge Dredd on this list.

Next Time, please hide your mouse cursor first !

Love the Mega Drive/Genesis. My list would go something like: 10. Shinobi 3 9. Gunstar Heroes 8. Rocket Knight Adventures 7. TMNT: Hyperstone Heist 6. Sonic 3 & Knuckles 5. Golden Axe 4. Mickey and Donald: World of Illusion (So awesome in co-op and a different experience from sp entirely) 3. The Lion King 2. Aladdin 1. Streets of Rage (Had such a blast playing with a sibling) Must have played it at least a hundred times. Honorable mentions: Tiny Toons: Buster's Hidden Treasure; Strider; (Sequels or other entries to the above). There's so many, it's a tough list to put together.

We had many games but i really loved : Golden axe, The lost Vikings and Streets of rage when i was little! And Jazz Jack Rabbit but i don't remember if that was a Sega or pc game.

Omgggggggggggggg i compeltely forgot about cool spot

Let's play! Where is the mouse cursor? Find it! 😂😂

i only remember playing 28 of these. Thought it would be more

Thanks for the childhood memories back! 😍

Ohhh that mouse cursor! It hurts my eyes

Where is robocop vs terminator Weapon lord Jurasick park Doom troopers Fatal fury 2 special Primal rage Mortal kombat So many games you left behind ...

Thanks for the watchable video. Dune #14 has me totally scratching my head.

Scary game where you try to catch a figure thats all i really remember 😂 He pops out every so often but if you get close it'll disappear

my biggest regret in life was giving my sega away for someones b day gift...............

Childhood memories :) i cant believe im turning in 3 weeks 26. I feel offical old lol

Thanks for the nostalgia and ideas for my channel. 🎉🎉🎉

Cool! Nostalgia and memories

Home Alone!!!!
