Good calls, however I have looked over those lists numerous times in the past and want new ideas. I know I want Alt. Beast.

For the most part the games on those lists kind of go without saying. I don't know if it's just because I've looked over them so many times, but yeah, each one of them could use some new ideas.

Yes I am a SEGA noob, grew up with Nintendo products my whole life. So any ideas are great.

You definitely need Boogerman and Earthworm Jim. If you get a 32x or Sega CD, you ought to look into Doom for 32x and NBA Jam for Sega CD (I know it was for SNES and Genesis, but I've always been partial to the Sega CD port. Not sure why).

Actually that is another thing I do have a 32x and sega cd. I have Doom and a few other 32x games and I played Lunar on the CD(loved it) any suggestions for those systems?

I still maintain that Ristar is the best platformer on the Genesis. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking it up.
