A Compendium of Sega Mega Drive & Genesis Games: Volume 1

By Kieren Hawken

First released in Japan in October 1988, the Sega Mega Drive is undoubtedly one of the most important and popular consoles of all time. Partly this is because it represents Sega's most successful period in the home market, but there's actually much more to it than that. When the console came to North America as the Sega Genesis in August 1989 it did something that nobody thought was possible and knocked market leaders Nintendo off their lofty perch. Led by the Genesis Does What Nintendon't campaign, the console offered a true 16-bit arcade-like experience in the home. The 1990 release of Sonic The Hedgehog only cemented Sega's position further and with it the blue speed demon became one of the moist enduring video game icons ever.

A Compendium of Sega Mega Drive & Genesis Games: Volume 1 has over 300 game reviews, fascinating facts and trivia, 3 developer interviews and a look at the rarest and most unusual models of the best-selling 16-bitter. This makes it the ideal companion for the serious Sega fan, people looking to start a collection or those of you who just want to re-live some nostalgia from argualbly the greatest era of gaming
