Top 20 Sega CD Games

[LiquidPolicenaut]

Here is my "Top 15" for my good ol' Sega/Mega CD. List is in alphabetical order since I don't want to try and play favorites after my top 5

1) Adventures of Batman & Robin (Great scaling effects, awesome animated cutscenes, not too great controls)
2) Adventures of Willy Beamish - Best version of the game...except for the load times
3) Dracula Unleashed - Best of the FMV games imo (I like Night Trap for its camp value but I actually like the 3DO version more). Tied with Batman & Robin for best possible FMV on the Sega CD..
4) Final Fight CD - Best version of the game (Awesome soundtrack, some things were redrawn better imo)
5) Keio Flying Squadron
6) Lords of Thunder
7) Lunar: The Silver Star
8) Lunar: Eternal Blue - Still my fav 16-bit RPG
9) Popful Mail
10) Rise of the Dragon
11) Road Avenger
12) Silpheed
13) Sonic CD - After all those years of arguing ofver the Japanese/American soundtrack,overall, i actually like the American one more ...
14) The Terminator
15) Urusei Yatsura - Really showed what the system was capable of in the right hands...

Drop NHL '94 and Sega Classics 5-in-1 and put on Silpheed and Robo Aleste!

No Slipheed? You should take out NHL 94 and put this amazing space shooter in it's place. Anyone here agree?

WHAT!?!? No Cadillacs & Dinosaurs?

Blasphemy!

Yes:

I love the list but being the non-sports game fan that I am - I'd drop NHL 94' and add Silpheed - I pretty much agree with everything else posted here :P theres more than 20 fav's for me personally!

The hell? Silpheed isn't on this list but NHL '94 is?

Drop NHL '94 and add Silpheed.

Not to mention Silpheed being in just about everyone's Top 20 list on this page and the last one, lol.

If you were "there" when this little add-on was released, you KNOW how big it was. Funny how time has really washed away the significance of the system and quite frankly, there's a LOT of junk on it.

What are your favorites? This is the official Roundtable Top 20! If you vote a game onto the list, you have to choose one to drop and explain why.

The Space Adventure needs to be on this list. It is one of the best Sega CD games that apparently isn't getting any love from anyone. Eternal champions should be taken off of the list.

Streets of Rage was ported to Sega CD, it's on the Sega CD Classic Arcade 4 in 1 collection...

Silpheed
Dark Wizard
Lunar: Eternal Blue
Eternal Champions
Lunar: Silver Star Story
Popful Mail
Shining Force CD
Final Fight CD
Snatcher
Sonic CD
Vay
Flashback
Rise of the Dragon

Android Assault
Terminator
Sewer Shark
Earthworm Jim

Honorable Mentions: Lethal Enforcers II, Panic!, Road Rash, Night Trap, Prize Fighter, Time Gal, Secret of Monkey Island, Heart of the Alien, Amazing Spiderman vs Kingpin


I love this console. I just bought a Justifier Light Gun to use on Snatcher and Lethal Enforcers for less than $10. Anyone interested in a good time playing games doesn't need broadband or -Craft in the title. Pop in one of these older games and you'll get pulled into gaming when it was pure fun. Too bad they didn't port Steets of Rage to Sega CD.
