This made me think back on what my first video game experience was. I've been playing them for almost the entirety of my life. It was Altered Beast Which, to this day, remains the hardest game I've ever played. EDIT: OH BUT WAIT! Among those first games I played was also one of my absolute favorites, Golden Axe!!
Have golden axe for my genesis, oh my god I love those games. Right up there with fireshark, which I really like as well. Although I'm not sure why I like that one so much...
Maybe you can help me. I had a ton of genesis games, and the name of one of them I've been looking for forever has escaped me. It was like a sci-fi side-scrolling shooter where the characters were two inhumanely buff dudes with sunglasses. One was blonde and the other a black dude. I want to say the name was something like 'another world' or 'another planet', but google has failed me, because there IS a game called Another World, but that isn't it. EDIT: Holy shit never mind. I found this list on wikipedia and found the game. It was Forgotten Worlds
Awesome! Glad you found it, time to hit up ebay it sounds like ;)
