Top 10 Turbo Games

[bob]

I keep torturing myself with attempts at Talespin.  Talk about unresponsive!
And the arc of the projectiles is a bitch.

[DarkKobold]

I can't quite beat Darkwing Duck on normal, but it's not bad on easy.  The life meter is so generous you can afford to take a lot of cheap hits due to the shat hit detection and slippery controls.

Its honestly not even worth playing on Normal. Its not fun, at all.

I have always been playing this on normal.

Should I be a pussy and try "easy"...cause I need to get at least *some* enjoyment from that game.

Its not that, its that its actually playable on easy... and fun.

I actually found Talespin fun as well. The cheap deaths are really annoying, and it isn't as fun as DW Duck, but its not as awful as people say.

but right now the pinball game I've been playing the most is Lost Gladiators (SS).

Good choice, I love almost all the Saturn pinball games!

Ever played Kyuutenkai Fantastic Pinball?

I had actually not heard of this game until now. Looking into it. Thanks for posting.

Oh it's "fantastic" - quite literally! - I hope you were able to check it out. I still immensely enjoy it's wacky anime style meets medieval pinball aesthetic!

Bitch where's TV Sports Baseball in your list?

[DragonmasterDan]

Bitch where's TV Sports Baseball in your list?

It wouldn't fit. It actually exists (someone found a proto card a couple years ago). I guess the same could be said of Marble Madness though.

[Serega81]

My top 10 are a bit different then most on this list, I never owned a tg16 and got a duo in 94, most of the games I played at first were imports and all CD based.  A lot of this list is biased by nostalgia.

1. Exile Wicked Phenomenon
2. Ys IV
3. Exile
4. Blood Gear
5. Neo Metal Fantasy
6. Babel
7. Cosmic Fantasy IV Part 1 *
8. Download
7. Tengai Makyo Fuun Kabuki Den
8. Ruin: Kami No Isan
9. Fiend Hunter
10. Dracula X

* - I'm one of the few on here, that actually really enjoyed Part 1, finding the game very colorful and entertaining, even if I did get stuck in the village, with no way of progressing. (those who have played it no doubt heard of this bug

I can confirm with 100% certainty that T.V. Sports Baseball exists.  It was on display at the 1993 Summer CES in Chicago, stuck inside a TurboExpress in the back row of the TTI booth.

I liked Tale spin as a kid. I'll have to revisit it soon to know if I still enjoy it. The controls never bothered me. I just got used to them.

[Punch]

I got talespin from Mr. Hailing and I still haven't done an attempt at actually beating it. Maybe I misjudged it but the game isn't very fun.
