: The Full CD LineupThis page showcases the best games on Sega's non-cartridge consoles. They're in rough order of my own preferences. Use the buttons above to venture deeper.
Rez
(Dreamcast)
rail shooter, but mostly a synesthesia simulator. one of my favorite games of all time. pairs will with some herb
Cosmic Smash
(Dreamcast)
easy to pick up and play this asthetic squash game. high in style
Seaman
(Dreamcast)
contemplative tamagatchi experience. I logged on every damn day for 3 weeks to talk to this little man. first it was small talk, we got to know each other. then I'm answering questions like 'how is your marriage' and 'do you really like yourself'? name another game that gets all philosophical on you
Typing of the Dead
(Dreamcast)
Inebriated infantile, Wanna bite my ankle?, Antidandruff hair lotion, Egg boiled in a hot spring, Did the devil show up yet?; type this stuff and more in Typing of the Dead
Burning Rangers
(Sega Saturn)
the saturn's swan song developed by the sonic team. a firefighting action game with a 4 episode story and absolutely packed with neon shaders. a lot of anime and just as much Jpop. you'll need some tolerance regarding crappy controls and dropped frames but a must-see.
Sega Rally Championship
(Sega Saturn)
i swear something moves me inside every time I boot up an ancient video game and it runs at locked 60FPS. that plus the CRT is an impeccable gameplay experience. anyways, this is an arcade faithful port of an excellent fast-paced rally game. mind blown by how well this runs.
Saturn Bomberman
(Sega Saturn)
colorful and runs great, got some bops in it too
Panzer Dragoon Zwei
(Sega Saturn)
rail shooter, this time on a flying dragon going through forests. this is a direct predecessor to Rez (see above) - same team
