I grew up with both Vectorman games on Sega Genesis. Often compared to Donkey Kong Country on SNES. Mostly due to being 2D platformers with some 3D models. But Vectorman actually more of a run & gun style platformer. They were quite creative with the presentation. Instead of the usual Sega logo then the game loads. It stops to allow you to play around the Sega logo with some secrets. It's a rather decent game with an amazing soundtrack. Fantastic sound effects despite the audio chip for the system not great. Vectorman had some mind blowing animations. A good variety of stages to keep things interesting. The same company made two decent Jurassic Park games on the same system. Which you can currently get through Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection. Vectorman does have a learning curve. Some amazing power ups to help through out the stages. It was released late into the Genesis run. I still felt among the best Genesis games of it's year. Vectorman isn't quite Mega Man but more of his own thing. I always remembered the cover for a long time. This was an ambitious Genesis game that held up amazingly well.

Black & White 2

Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

The Flintstones

The FlintstonesThis is a platform game based on the famous Flintstones series. The game features many original Flintstones characters, such as Fred, Wilma, Barney, and others. Instead of the usual "save the princess" or "liberate the world" kinds of a plot, "The Flintstones" is mainly based on small quests: Fred has to retrieve a lost item, etc. The large levels are divided into smaller stages. In the end of each level there is a boss battle. The gameplay involves mostly jumping and hitting the enemies on the heads with a club. The health is measured by hearts. During the game Fred will find many useful items, including some that will increase his health level.
