Dick Vitale's "Awesome, Baby!" College Hoops

Genesis 1994

Dick Vitale, the famous college basketball coach and commentator, lent his unique voice to this game for the Sega Genesis. There are four levels of commentary depth. Another aspect of the license is that the variety of offensive and defensive strategies and formations for the player and the AI are drawn from the pages of Coach Vitale's own playbook. The game features a 3/4 pseudo-3D perspective similar to that available on the SNES console in mode 7. There are 32 college teams to choose from in four conferences, and games are played with official NCAA rules. The game modes available are Single Game, 2-on-2, Slamfest (a simple dunk contest) and Tournament. The AI can take control of the defense, and the game can be played without foul rules.

Firepower 2000

Genesis 1994

A secret 'subway race' located on an island in the mid-Atlantic Ocean has stolen the best military vehicles and equipment from around the world and rebuilt powerful war machines from them. They are even piloted by robots with a single mission: to destroy. Military and intelligence officials in major countries have detected them, but fear they cannot prepare for an assault by this subterranean race. Their plan is to send you to infiltrate their base and destroy them before they have a chance to unleash war on the rest of the world. You can choose to control either the Helicopter or the Jeep, which have different advantages: for example, the Helicopter is not obstructed by obstacles, but the Jeep can fire in any direction. There are nine weapons (five permanent and four short-lived specials) that you can pick up along the way to help you destroy the enemy.

Generations Lost

Genesis 1994

Generations Lost is an action platformer in which the player takes the role of Monobe, an adventurer in search of his village's past. Thanks to his magical armor, Monobe is able to execute many different moves. In addition to running and jumping, Monobe can roll on the ground, strike with his hands and feet, and shoot energy balls. With the help of an energy rope, Monobe can swing from platform to platform. Most of the time, Monobe has to solve various puzzles, find secret switches and survive deadly traps. The game is divided into six areas that can be accessed through the 'Magic Box' teleporter.

Kawasaki Superbike Challenge

Game Gear 1994

This portable version differs from its platform brothers. This version features ten international circuits, as well as 11 different options for customizing and tuning their bikes, as well as upgrading them with race winnings. Players must also adjust their equipment based on weather conditions, such as having rain tires for stormy weather. There are three different game modes: Practice, Arcade and Superbike, which is essentially a season mode, allowing the player to compete in all ten races to become champion. It also features two-player capabilities using the Gear-to-Gear link cable and a password feature so players can pick up and play as they please.

Kawasaki Superbike Challenge

Genesis 1995

Kawasaki Superbike Challenge is a motorcycle racing game that uses the same engine as F1. It includes 14 standard-length race tracks, plus the Suzuka 8 Hours endurance race, available in training and championship modes. The game is not licensed (except for Kawasaki), so all drivers and teams are fictional. The game has more polygonal objects on the road than F1, and there is still a Turbo mode, which allows you to run faster at the cost of some details. You have the possibility to enable or disable the weather (during rainy days the graphics are darker and the bike has less traction). The number of laps in each circuit can be 5, 10 or 15, and there are 4 skill levels. Some changes have been made to the handling of the vehicles, to emphasize the change from cars to motorcycles.

PGA Tour Golf II

Game Gear 1995

A sequel to PGA Tour Golf and a scaled-down version of its Genesis counterpart in which the player can choose to play as a generic pro golfer or as an amateur and compete against four real-life pros, including Fred Couples, Paul Azinger, Craig Stadler and Fuzzy Zoeller, with six different locations to choose from. Players can choose to play in tournament mode, play in skins or learn the fundamentals of the game in practice mode. Players use a cursor on a top-down view of a map to determine location, as well as another view from behind the golfer to avoid various obstacles such as trees. After selecting their location, they can use a meter located in the lower left to determine the amount of draw or fade that will be put on the shot. To hit the ball, players press the B button to start the power meter and press it again to stop it. Players must also adjust to changing wind and weather conditions during the game, which will drastically change the outcome of their shot. It features four-player capability via team links, as well as a password function.

Power Drive Rally

Jaguar 1995

Power Drive Rally is a representation of the world of rally racing. It is a bird's eye view racing game with real cars and tracks from around the world, similar in design to 16-bit Power Drive, but with a different track layout. The main game mode represents a championship racing season. There are several types of races. The first is a timed qualifier called the Special Stage; the second is the Rallycross Stage, in which you compete against a single computer-controlled racer. The second is the Rallycross Stage, in which you race against a single computer-controlled racer, and the Skill Stage, which requires tricky driving.

R.B.I. Baseball '94

Game Gear 1994

This portable version is different from its console cousin in terms of content. While the game still features 28 teams modeled after their real-life 1993 MLB counterparts (with the exception of the MLB license), there are fewer players in this version. Each team also has previous Hall of Fame teams dating back to the 1980s. There is only one game mode available, a single-player exhibition in which the player chooses a team to face a computer A. I. team. However, if the player chooses two teams from the same league, the game will have the player compete in a best-of-seven series, with passwords. There is also a watch option that allows the player to watch two computer A. I. teams compete against each other.

RBI Baseball '95

SEGA 32X 1995

This version is an updated continuation of the R. B. I. series. Many of the same features from other baseball games are present and there are three different game modes to choose from: exhibition, playoff and home run derby. What sets this version apart from the others is the lack of an MLB license, although it does have an MLBPA license with the best players of the era, such as Roger Clemens, Otis Nixon and Bobby Larkin, among many others. Although it does not have a full MLB license, it attempts to recreate the MLB experience by omitting team nicknames but using similar team colors and using the actual stadiums without using their distinctive markings. It does not have a battery backup, but does have a password feature so the player can pick it up and play later if desired.
