Sega.

What’s the best game Sega have made, I reckon Sonic the Hedgehog 1, it took the standard Mario platforming made it faster and more accessible because there’re is less reliance on timed jumps and brought the 16 bit era upon us.

What Sega’s greatest achievement?

[Mr Do 71]

Daytona USA 1 & 2. So perfect is it, that anyone old or young can play it. And even today, it's utterly brilliant fun

[Anadim]

being alive after shitting on every sonic title after sonic 2.

[Dimahoo]

Outrun's my obvious choice.

Wonderboy less so - but a perfect example of a great arcade platformer

What? You thought Sonic 1 didn't rely on timing? Every single platform went to a certain beat and that's why there weren't any "surprise jumps" like there is with modern Sonic games. It was a great game for that fact, that's why it had such great level design.

[Hitcher]

REZ.

[TheSlugFormerlyKnownAsNap]

The winner must be Rez.

It's the only Sega game ever that could hold my attention for more than an hour at the time.

[Dude Ranch]

PSO. My first ever online game and borderline the most fun I've ever had with a console. Talking to each other with the speech bubbles was great . All on a <56k connection.

Twats ruined it though.

I’m not a plant! Sega have not been their good old self over the last generation cough Sonic Heroes cough I admit, I just think they’re a company that need a good recognition of their achievements and history, that’s what the point of this thread is if I hadn’t made that clearer, and about Sonic depending less on jumping timing I meant hat it was easier to time to jumps due to the speed which made the game more accessible I like Mario aswell IMo.

[Qazimod]

Jet Set Radio Future (see here...)

[FargalEX]

Jet Set Radio

[emps]

Samba De Amigo (but only because I don't think 'game' is a very accurate description of Rez )

[heroes for sale]

[Qazimod]

Jet Set Radio.

But the clocks! Gnaaaaaaaaaaaargh!

And JSR doesn't have the song Birthday Cake.

What do you mean "that's a good thing?"

[Spunky Monkey]

No one gona mention Shenmue? Fine i'll do it then, not only was it the first game of its sort, it really pushed the dreamcast graphically, displayed more emotion than the PS2 and had a gay character as its main err character

The amount of detail that went into its graphics truely show how good Sega used to be, add in a bit of Shenmue 2 for some SUPERB action scenes and well. Sega on top form.

[will2097]

Either Shenmue OR Sega Rally Championship.

[squirtle]

Shenmue. No contest really.

[hughes]

Outrun 2.

It's a proper game!

ok calm down sweety

Creating and maintaining the most beautiful sky in anything ever.

I pray for the day I open my curtains to see something out of Monkey Ball, Crazy Taxi or Green Hill Zone warming the streets of Deepest-Darkest, Essex.

[nausea]

Sega Rally Championship.

with Virtua Tennis, Crazy Taxi, Rez, Streets of Rage 2, Super Monkey Ball, Sonic The Hedgehog, Virtua Figher 4 Evolution, F355 Challenge, Daytona USA 2, Jet Set Radio and Outrun 2 SP in close second.

[TheSlugFormerlyKnownAsNap]

Panzer Dragoon Orta was pretty neat as well, except for the shitty bossfights.

[Rev]

I’m not a plant!

Well a plant would say that, wouldn't they?

[Shoes]

Shenmue is shit. I would say Jet Set Radio, but I went back to it recently and I despised it. Because of the awful Dreamcast pad, maybe.

Phantasy Star Online is the clear winner. Anyone who disagrees is absurd.

But Rez must be mentioned. And Seaman. Sega are great! Sometimes. Well, rarely.

[Tom*]

Sonic 2

[nausea]

Creating and maintaining the most beautiful sky in anything ever.

totally agree with you..!

[Geoff]

Sonic 2

Well Sonic 2 was good but it was not revolutionary just better visuals maybe level design and an assistant Mailes (Tails prouder), Sonic 3 and Knuckles released as one game would make my change my favorite Sega game. Excuse the puctuaction errors please I'm a full time worker.

[Popo]

There's a lot of love in this thread

It's hard to pick a favourite, so I'll just mentioned the oft neglected Virtua Cop as one of the most sublime arcade games ever (well, since the last Sega game anyway).

It's got that great pitch between 'one more go' play and the desire for a high score - the score multiplier was very clever and it was great to look at too.

Initial D was a great, recent return to form too.

Sega... they ARE the best!

[Triple A]

Sonic 1 HANDS DOWN

though there is a shedload of amazing stuff besides

[Spartan]

Sega Rally Championship 1995

STILL one of the best racing games EVER made. It pisses on so many recent racing games.
