Top 10 Turbo Games

[geise]

8. Bomberman 1

Really? Have you played the other installments?

Yeah I guess I'm weird.  I like the simplicity of it and I just have more fond memories playing the first one with my bro and friends.  I love all of them all, but Bomberman 1 I like the best.  It started the whole Bomberman craze for me.  My favorite Bomberman of all though is Saturn Bomberman.  Also the other game Overdrive in my list is wrong.  I meant to say Override.

Seemed like a cool post to bump:

2.) Soldier Blade
3.) Bomberman 93
4.) Dungeon Explorer 2
5.) Lords of Thunder
6.) Gate of Thunder
7.) Nexzr Summer Carnival
8.) Ys 4
9.) Rayxanber 2
10.) Dungeon Explorer

So, let's bump the 5-year-old thread rather than the 4-day-old thread on this board's first page here:

Actually, I totally forgot about Neo Nectaris.  List edited.

I'd really like to find a way to fit in a few games not on my list, like Dungeon Explorer II, Neutopia 1 or 2, Aeroblasters, Devils Crush, Bomberman 93, etc.  I'd have to really sit down and think hard if i wanted to make a real top10.  If we were including SuperGrafx, as well, I'd probably try to fit Aldynes and GnG in here somewhere.  This is hard!

I just get frustrated with Top 10 lists and usually don't even submit anything. I try. But too many games don't make the list. Drives me crazy. And if I'm in a shoot-em-up mood, then you can guess what games will dominate the list.

I have never put much thought into a Top Ten Turbo list so this should be fun:

1. Bonk's Revenge - Without a doubt my #1. This was game that got me into TurboGrafx-16. My neighbor had it and the character was just so appealing to me. Bonk has since gone on to be one of my favorite series of games (even on the Super Famicom).

2. Galaga 90 - Probably my most played shooter of all time. Love the different pathways, warp zones etc. The sound effects are amazing too. So addicting.

3. Alien Crush - This game just sucked me into it's world and never let go. Love the art design obviously inspired by HR Giger. The music too is just classic Turbo.

4. Air Zonk - I remember seeing this on display at Toys R Us and wishing I had a Turbo. Picked one up by '94 and this was one of the first we got. Love that parallax scrolling! Return to this one often.

5. Legendary Axe - Should have been the pack-in game. Brilliant in many ways, although a bit short.

6. Bomberman - This game came hidden on the Gate of Thunder game and it was my first introduction to the world of Bomberman. It's one of my all-time favorite video game franchises.

7. Military Madness - So addicting. My favorite turn based strategy game on any system.

8. Cadash - This was one of my favorite arcade games growing up and the Turbo version is the best port with it's choice of all four original characters. A side scrolling Gauntlet!

9. Dragon Spirit - Before Panzer Dragoon there was Dragon Spirit! Another great shooter that I often return to.

10. Splatterhouse - What can I say? One of the first true "horror" games and it's fantastic.

Some of these change positions from time to time but that's about it!

All solid games! I am surprised you picked Alien Crush over Devil's Crush though. My TG-16 list wouldn't be much different at this point, I would probably bounce Air Zonk for Blazing Lazers and insert New Adventure Island for Cadash

Totally agree, very surprising. I played them in the wrong order (played DC first) so it was pretty hard for me to want to play Alien Crash after the masterpiece that is DC. I still play DC a fair bit, but right now the pinball game I've been playing the most is Lost Gladiators (SS).

[Necromancer]

I'd take Time Cruise over both Crushes.  The bonus stages are what do it for me, especially prehistoric golf.

[Gypsy]

I still need to play that one as well as Digital Pinball Necronomicon. Both look promising.

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