4Ks Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 (edited) Well, it's that time of the year again: time for a special round! This time, we're going to play a bunch of Genesis/Megadrive games that everyone who has the system owns. This will run for two weeks, so it will end on the 17th of Febuary. You can't just play any game you want (that would give the players with bigger collections an unfair advantage), but if there's a classic I missed, I might add it to the list. Play each game until you run out of lives, and submit your total score. No continuing.

roadrunner Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I never played these games before. I don't think i'll do all that good. Castle of Illusion 56,400 My score was a little higher but the game didn't show my final score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zylon Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I think I own 3 of these. Wonder if my Genny still works; haven't powered it up since 2001. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4Ks Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 BTW, you should be playing Columns on Original mode, not Arcade. Columns: 579,373 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CGQuarterly Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Can we submit multiple scores? A month is a long time... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Columns: 579,373 Yeah, looking at the other scores posted so far Original mode looks alot easier. Just play both modes. Make arcade mode a bonus point or something. Why waste scores? Gotta admit that is a mighty nice Columns score up above mine there. Edited January 28, 2011 by zylon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4Ks Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 Can we submit multiple scores? A month is a long time... Chris Of course, play as many of these games as you want. That's the whole point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zylon Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) Yes it is. Come get some! 98,690 A long time ago, I gave away most of the Genesis stuff to my nephews since it wasn't worth anything anyway. I kept around 20-30 games including 3 of this round's selections. Wonder which one I have left. Edited January 29, 2011 by zylon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit 2: 237,260 on Rocket Knight Adventures. Dang, you're good at this aren't you? 4ks: You should check out Columns III if you can! Just looked this up, it has a 9.5/10 review average on GameFAQs. That's a must-buy for sure! BTW, where was Columns II? I always hear about Columns I and III, but never any mention of a Columns II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be able to improve some but I'm way out of practice on these. While the graphics and speed of the Genny amazed me in 89-90, I've always gone back to good old SMS. I've enjoyed the challenge. Technically, Super Columns is Columns II. They hadn't planned on a 3rd release when naming the 2nd one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
