Any poll that knocks Beyond Oasis out in the first round is invalid imo.

[François]

Shining Force 2 feels like it's too good for the Genesis. And I say that as someone who loves the Genesis. It's a game that fell out of a portal to an alternate universe where kindness is more consistently rewarded than cruelty.

The only bad thing I can say about Shinobi III is that it might be just a tad too easy for its own good. But dang it just feels gorgeous to play, it's precise and smooth and makes you feel like a badass when you go through a section perfectly.

If Aladin and Shadowrun are out... What have we become?

[Upthorn]

This is the easiest round so far. The bottom four are the only correct choices. Though I suppose I can forgive people for being seduced by Strider.

[Friday]

his "gameplay" is so smooth and silky

please no

[Niku]

man i missed the round with shadowrun, but i can't entirely argue with the winners there so stacked deck gonna stack

anyway, crusader of centy is slept on and has some fun action-rpg mechanics even if it's not even close to being ZELDA BUT ON YOUR MEGGY

[Friday]

72. Strider 7
56. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist 3
61. THE OOZE 2
69. Pac Man 2 the New Adventures 1
41. Marvel Land 1
43. Shinobi III 9
25. Shining Force 2 10
23. Ecco The Dolphin 11
15. Crusader of Centy 6

Strider only gaining 7 votes is sort of surprising, but it's enough to make it out of the first round.

Next up and last in the round:

1. Sonic the Hedgehog
6. Popful Mail
11. Castlevania: Bloodlines
13. Landstalker
19. Lunar Eternal Blue
31. Sonic the Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles
48. Ranger X
58. Light Crusader
59. HAUNTING STARRING POLTERGUY
74. Earthworm Jim

Vote for 5 this time.

[Brantly B.]

Now this one's a toughy.

HAUNTING STARRING POLTERGUY might not be best genesis game, but is definitely one of the most genesis game

EDIT: Wait shit you said 5 okay add 1 to Popful Mail.

[Friday]

I'll just go ahead and open up vote switching because this is a 5 round.

[zaratustra]

Sonic 1's good parts are good but also there's a lot of ... really slow parts

Marble Zone is pretty but fucking glacial paced

Labyrinth Zone is not even that pretty

and then a Labyrinth Zone redux at the end of the game for some reason

[Niku]

yeah that redux at the final moment is such a fucking dick to the eye. sonic 1 blows.

[Friday]

1. Sonic the Hedgehog 4
6. Popful Mail 8
11. Castlevania: Bloodlines 11
13. Landstalker 8
