Alright, what are some must-own titles for the Genesis?

And no Sonic recommendations. I'm sure we all know that other than 3D Blast, those are worth owning.

Here's what I already have:
-Sonic The Hedgehog
-Altered Beast
-Monopoly
-Golden Axe II
-Rocket Knight Adventures

Feel free to recommend stuff that I already own, since I'm not only making this thread for me, but for anyone else who is wondering about Genesis must-owns.

Also, if you have a Genesis and don't own Rocket Knight Adventures, get it ASAP.

X-men or X-men 2, and I'm partial to Shinobi games, so I'll throw Revenge of Shinobi in there.

Also, go for Gunstar Heroes, a classic Treasure shooter. Everyone that I know that had a Genesis instead of an SNES had that game and wouldn't shut up about it.

Madden 96
NHL 94 or 93, not sure...I think 93
Sonic 2
Columns (The one I had was on a 3-in-1 cartridge with Super Hang-On and a soccer game)

If all of my games hadn't gotten stolen, I could recommend some more. But those were some of my favorites.

Good games:

Altra beast
X-men 1 and 2
Spiderman maxium carnage
Golden axe 1 2 3
Streets of rage 1 2 3

Shining Force 1 & 2.
Phantasy Star IV

Gunstar heroes, Seperation anxiety(multiplayer)

Yea yead dude get on those Shining Force games those are bas ass

I would recommend Separation Anxiety over Maxium Carnage. Also get Herzog Zwei and General Chaos.

Super Tecmo Bowl III & Super High Impact Football (that is if you have any minimal interest in football games), Ghouls N Ghosts, Paperboy, and the Road Rashes are all great games to have for the Genesis.

Toejam and Earl. I still occasionally take the Genesis out of the closet and hook it up to play TJ&E with my wife.

MUTANT LEAGUE FOOTBALL

MUTANT LEAGUE HOCKEY.

MUST HAVE! These are the best sports games I have played!

I'm a huge fan of Dick Tracy. Awesome title. Also look for Vectorman 1, 2.. and.. quite possibly my fav Genesis title next to the classic SEGA stuff...

Comix Zone

herzog Zwei
gunstar heroes

Of course, it depends largely on what kind of games you're into. For starters, I'll recommend the following Genesis games:

Castlevania: Bloodlines
Contra: Hard Corps
Earthworm Jim series
Gunstar Heroes
Phantasy Star series
Road Rash series
Sega 6-Pak
Shinobi series (Secret of, Shadow Dancer, III)
Splatterhouse 2
Streets of Rage series
Toe Jam & Earl

battletech
aladdin (best game for genesis)

Toejam & Earl - still my favorite 2 player co-op game
NHL 93
Sonic series
Earthworm Jim 1 & 2

There is a ton of good games posted here 8)

Shaq-Fu.
