Sega and DOS Represent
« on: November 20, 2007, 09:51:56 PM »
Barely anyone talks about SEGA, and I'd like to pay tribute to such an awesome Gaming System, the Dreamcast and the Genesis! Ecco, Sonic, Kick ass sports games, fur fighters, Power Stone, and hell kick ass MDK!

I don't give a shit about yo mario, I represent Sonic

I don't give a shit if you ride yoshi, I got two fucking tails to helicopter with

I don't give a shit if you have a god damn toad, I got a fucking dolphin that solves riddles biatch!

And I don't give a shit about your mortal combat, I've got fighters named Wang Tang in Power Stone that flame you up!

Everyone knows Nintendo learned from the best, us! Who else came up with more than two buttons?


I also want to remember from the good years, my DOS collection...

Simon the Sorcerer, Planet Strike, Wolf 3d, DOOM, Heretic, Dark Sead, Monster Madness, and Monster Classics Collection!

The Dreamcast?! That system sucked ass. The Genesis was great, but Dreamcast?! Oh and hate to tell you this, but Sega did not pioneer multiple buttons. CalecoVision did that first. I do love alot of Genesis games though.


Oh and YAY for DOS! ^_^

c:\DOS
c:\DOS run
run DOS run

Day of the tentacle was an awesome game, far better then the original maniac mansion. And of course we need to remember other greats like gold rush, zork, ZZT. I miss being able to write .bat files to make launching programs fun and easy  :D

I'm pretty sure that the PC was the gaming platform to "pioneer" multiple buttons first  ;)

If we're looking for the first multi-button game I'd have to give credit to pinball.

Sega does what Nintendont.

Also, Sonic 2 is the first and only great sonic game.  The rest are good to blah.

Ah, DOS. If only they still had that! Now I have to use an emulator which I can't get the sound to work on to run Age of Rifles.

I kind of liked the first Sonic, but 2 was better.

Toejam and Earl was a sweet sega game.

And of course classics like Golden Axe and Crusin' can't be ignored  :D

Oh God, Zork!  Love!  It!

Who could forget the glory of Lemmings, though?  Best DOS game of all time.

And of course the first two Settlers games also deserve their due.

I thought the Dreamcast controller wasn't very ergonomic

Dreamcast was technically the superior console, too bad they had Sonic. Autofail. DOS games can not be beaten in quality. Ever. Also, there are so ridiculously many games you forgot to mention that deserve to be mentioned before those. Lucasarts' adventure games, for example.
