I have to recommend Revenge of Shinobi. There are so many memorable moments and boss fights. Also the level design is incredibly challenging, but not impossible makes it one of my favorites. I played the heck out of it when I was a kid as it was included in the Sega Classics disc for my Sega CD.dunpeal2064 wrote:1. Sonic

Decap Attack is pretty cool. The character feels great to control, the levels are linear but have "routes" (Similar to Sonic), and the bosses are alright. I think the character is the best part of the game, he feels so slick, and you can do some really interesting things with him and his various potions. Sadly, he feels over-developed for the game, as if he is too badass for his own engine. Still a fun romp, and could make for a very entertaining speedrun.
Shadow Dancer is perfection. Aside the weird shmup stages, which pretty much serve as intermission breaks, the game's pacing, difficulty, music, graphics, everything... is just perfect. I have come to love the one-hit kill, as it supports a style of play that naturally leads to what feels like superplay-level gaming, without ever needing to resort to a guide or playthrough. The bosses are GREAT. Fixed attacks mixed with random movement patterns means you always know what you are supposed to do, but are still kept on your toes. Jumping up and down ledges, smacking dudes with your blade, cutting their feet with shurikens, learning every enemies movement patterns and how to lead them, everything. It took me several plays to clear this, and each time I had a blast playing each stage. Stages are brief and take you right into the action that stage is designed around.
I could go on and on about this game, it blew me away.
Now that my first Genesis/MD Ninja Scroller has been defeated, I am looking to move to either Strider or Return of Shinobi. I've never played either of them!

Interesting to hear, I played through the first level and another level and I really disliked it. The controls didn't feel very precise and I didn't care for the look of it.prfsnl_gmr wrote:First 2526. Alien Chaos 3D (3DS)

A lot of you have played this game; so, I won't write much. I will say, however, that this game - which is immensely fun - demonstrates the strength of Capcom's 8-bit offerings. WayForward also did a great job updating the graphics and level design, and the new final level is intensely challenging. I very much enjoyed this game, and I think that DuckTales Remastered is probably my second-favorite WayForward game (after the brilliant A Boy & His Blob (Wii)).
