Many consider the Super Nintendo the best 2D gaming console ever; some even call it the best ever period. It's hard not to see why as the system was packed with many instant classics. Those that sold well were repackaged with the "Player's Choice" label and sold at a budgeted price. Here are the best "Player's Choice" games of the bunch...

The only game console I ever owned was Super Nintendo and I spent hours glued to the television monitor swinging through the streets as Spider-Man in Maximum Carnage or destroying robots in any of a number of Mega Man games. I'd say some of the best Super Nintendo games ever are extensions of Nintendo's popular properties such as the Mario Brothers and Mega Man. The top ten Super Nintendo games, in no particular order, are...

These Games Are Action Packed, Heart Pounding Monuments in Video Game History

Sega is a multinational video game software and hardware development company founded in 1940 as Standard games. Sega's biggest marketing push for video games between 1989 and 2001 was to launch an anti-Nintendo campaign to carry the new generation of games with a slogan of "We do what Nintendon't". In 1991 Sega changed their slogan to "Welcome to the next level" and the console war continued. As a result of these campaigns some very popular games became available for players to entertain themselves with. These are ten of the most popular ones that Sega Genesis was involved with.

Not so very long ago, two consoles dominated the market Nintendo's Super Nintendo or SNES and Sega's Genesis. Though the Genesis lacked the competitor's graphics and power. Sega made up more ground in the realm of software support and addictive game play. The good, old three button controller (revamped for six buttons for Mortal Kombat) provided gamers with many different options. The top ten games for the good system, in no particular order...

My choices for the Top Ten Games on the Sega Genesis video game system are not aligned with any popular vote or critical ratings from gaming sites. These are the games I recall having the most fun with, regardless of mass popularity.

I've been doing a series of articles counting down the top 10 selling video games on each video game console. I've only been taking into account video games that sold over 1 million copies because it's easiest to find information on those video games. Unfortunately the Sega Genesis only had nine games sell over 1 million copies so this list will have to be a Top 9 highest selling Sega Genesis games.

When the Super Nintendo video game system was on the market, battling it out with the Sega Genesis system, I owned a Sega. However, I had friends who owned the Super NES and from time to time would play it. Comprising a very long list of Super NES games would be difficult for me, but I can list the three that I remember the most. On the Sega Genesis I enjoyed a variety of game styles, but most of my friends were into fighting games. So, when I was watching other people play the Super Nintendo it tended to be one of the Mortal Combat games getting shown off. Below are the top three games I enjoyed playing myself.

The seventh-generation video game consoles have standardized a number of new video game features, including downloadable content, online play, wireless controllers and motion control. In addition, all three of the seventh-generation consoles have introduced ways to download retro video games from previous systems. Of the three current systems, the Nintendo Wii has the widest variety and library of downloadable retro games. These games, downloadable from the Wii Virtual Console, range from as old as Commodore 64 games to as modern as N64 games and include some of the best video games ever published. The following are some of the best available on the Virtual Console that are nearly as good today as when they were first released.

The punches, the kicks, the body slams... does anything quiet compare to the thrill of old school wrestling? The answer is no, and if you answer was "yes lots of things" then I would recommend you move along to another article (preferably one of my own).

I never thought I'd write a "top ten" list, but I figure that out of the over three hundred articles I've written for this site I'd be safe with this list that will probably contain around ten entries. 16 bit systems are certainly a thing of the past, a relic of the early 1990s that someone with an X-Box would think came out of the 1970s. However, the 16 Bit systems (namely Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo) were responsible for some of the most enjoyable and visually impressive games of all time. This list is devoted to naming and giving honor to some of the best in the bunch. They are in no particular order.

For several years I loved my Nintendo Entertainment System. It was like my best friend, but sometimes you drift apart and meet new friends. In 1989, I met my new friend, the Sega Genesis. There were many fun games on the Sega Genesis and I always considered myself a Genesis fans, as opposed to those Nintendo fanboys. It's time to take a little trip down memory lane and remember my ten favorite Sega Genesis games.

The best sci-fi games have always been ones that pushed the boundaries of gaming and introduced players to something completely original. Just having spaceships or aliens is not enough - there are mountains of sci-fi games filling the bargain bins that can attest to that. Following are the top 5 sci-fi video games that have endured through sales, reputation, sequels, and imitations since their creation. Some have been universally praised (Myst), some have incited controversy (Mass Effect), but all are considered must-haves for the serious gamer.

In the early days of video games beat 'em ups were very popular. From the beat 'em up genre came another sub-genre called hack and slash games. Hack and slash games are similar to beat 'em ups in that the game is mainly just a bunch of button mashing as you fight a myriad of enemies at once. The difference between a hack and slash game and a beat 'em up is that typically beat 'em up games require using your fists and feet and hack and slash requires using a sword or knife for most of the game. These are the ten best hack and slash video games of all-time.

From Nintendo to XBox and More

No one will ever be able to agree on a list of the best video games of all time. But I think I can make one that at least some people will like. After all, there are, in my opinion, certain obvious games that can be appreciated by everyone.

While I'm sure there will be a lot of people commenting on games I left out, I can only speak for myself in this article. These are my top 5 favorite RPG's. If you disagree, go ahead and make your own list and let me know about it.
