Star Wars Trilogy and Killer instinct still blow my mind.

Killer Instinct was effective at tricking you into believing the hardware was a lot more powerful than it actually was. It's basically the same trick as Donkey Kong Country, just on a larger scale with a lot more storage. For example the backgrounds are prerendered videos that 'play' backwards when the camera scrolls left and forwards when it scrolls right.

What is mind blowing with killer instinct for you? To me it’s just a worse street fighter with prerendered 3d graphics (that looks so so and very dated today and was even clearly anatomically off back then) vs hand drawn art

This mid 80s to late 90s of Sega was just the best!

I can't tell you how big a deal Dragon's Lair and Space Ace were if you were not there... Also, Alladin on Genesis hit hard too. Both being cartoons that you could PLAY was amazing in their day.

I’d think Soul Blade at least deserves an honorable mention. It looked really good with fantastic music.

…and it’s just so much more fun than Tekken

Street Fighter 3rd Strike still looks fantastic today, absolutely beautiful animations

No Art of Fighting 3? That graphics were outstanding for the time.

You forgot Hologram Time Traveller. That game pushed every limit. I am shocked it’s not on the list.😮

3:16 - You might have done a wrong cut in the audio there (the end of your Star Wars commentary is about The House of the Dead :) Which means you might have a part II coming up, since The House of the Dead isn't in this video :) But great video, loved every bit of it!

You're supposed to preface with "um, actually..."

I remember when Space Harrier was released in the arcade. Was blown away by that game.

Talking about atari star wars, while showing sega star wars, then talking about house of the dead instead is some pretty amazing trolling.

Sega was killing it

You should check out Winning Run as well, Namco managed to make Virtua Racing three years before Sega did!

Yeh the dad of Ridge Racer, it's very impressive. It also looks smoother than Hard Drivin and better colour, one year earlier. Although I never remember seeing it. Hard Drivin was far more common in arcades.

It would be nice of the games would be sorted by release date adding a little spec info of the hardware they run on. like cpu, ram, video and sound.

These are all old friends. Thanks for the memories. Get ready…..aaaarggghh

Blitz was the 1st game I remember being able to insert your playstation memory card into. At least I think I remember that. Hard to believe it's been nearly 30 years. Where'd the time go?

Also gotta say that I just couldn’t get the hang of street fighter 3’s parying system. Game looked great. I still have it on Dreamcast

Super Scalars are still my favorite kinds if games. I still think they are beautiful and technically impressive

I don't know if the narrator is AI or a real person but it fits perfectly!

​@mattalan6618 he was making a joke you freaking mong.

T2 was only really missing a stage for the Galleria Mall Hallway and the chase through the Angeles River areas and then it would be totally representing the movie.

Didn’t know Star Wars was a horror game lol 😂

If you had T2 I think it's criminal you didn't have Revolution X. I believe it was a graphically superior cabinet with better digitization and audio. Plus it was as fun to play if not more so.

I thought of Monkey Ball, Ferrari Challenge, Hard Drivin', KOF 13, VF 3 and Stun Runner

street fighter 3 was insane, the smoothness of the animation was unparalleled at the time

Marvel vs Capcom 2 is my favorite game from this list, but I recall Killer Instinct dropping my jaw when I saw it as well. I never got to see a Street Fighter 3 machine in an arcade, but i understood all the hoopla when I saw it in motion as part of the Street Fighter Collection on PS2 years later. Knowing the years now when 3D games like Daytona and Virtual Cop came out makes them more impressive too.

So many Sega...... Kinda sad to know how they where the guys to break boundaries from Arcade to consoles back in the day, to a company that became a small spot in the gaming industry.

No Sega's SubRoc-3D, the first stereoscopic 3D game, no Battlezone nor any Atari Quadrascan games, none of the Exidy games that had a lot of digitized speech, etc.

Cobra Command and Zaxxon were 2 of my favorites as a kid. Fond memories. 😊

Daytona USA one of the loudest arcades I've been heard, any arcade I played on back in the 90s you could always hear that one Noticed how most where from SEGA thou and look how they ended up in the end

I used to go to this arcade at this big ass mall back in the day that had an entire wing of Daytona cabinets all linked together. There were probably 20 or so. It was really impressive to watch back in the day, and I have that theme song engrained in to my mind. I also used to go to this shitty pizza place, which was the only place around that had a virtua fighter cabinet. It was the only reason to go there.

I think a nod to Atari’s OG trilogy of on-rail raster graphics games-one each for the _Star Wars_ (before _”A New Hope”_ was a thing), _Empire Strikes Back,_ and _Return of the Jedi_ films-on which Sega’s _Star Wars Trilogy_ obviously drew SO MUCH influence, including shooting the tops off towers mechanic. _Trilogy_ looked _awesome,_ but for their times, the Atari trilogy played _and_ looked better, to take nothing from Sega’s awesome “love letter.” (God, I hate that term... )

Ahhhh Space Harrier I played that game to death when it originally came out in the arcades sitting down in the hydraulic cabinet I would put in 50p and complete the game. Now nearly 40 years later I can still complete this game nearly from muscle memory😁

great video!! Just my opinion, but showing off each game in accending order by year would have tracked better. Still gave thumbs up, and still enjoyed the video!!

Scary how a lot of modern gamers and gaming journos don't even recognize half of these. SEGA made such a huge impact on gaming especially, but never get credit for their innovative bangers included here.

I should include Scud Race and Thrill Drive.

Thank you for one of the most memorable days of our lives.😊 Oh, yeah. The owners were pissed!😂😂

No Time Crisis?...orrrr *gasp* Sinistar???

No virtua racing?

Does anyone remember a light gun game that took place in the wild west? They used real video of guys shooting at you in a saloon and there were parts where you shot bottles. I can't remember what it was called but I loved it. It was probably late 80s early 90s

Beat MK 2 in the arcades with every single character.

Tekken 3 on the PS1 I Agree, not the arcade versions which were underpowered PS1 hardware and looked weak in an arcade.

Too bad Pit Fighter wasn’t a better game, it broke ground on photographic sprites and walked so Mortal Kombat could run.

Gotta disagree about terminator. Yeah maybe it looked cool but it sucked to play.

Virtua Fighter looked Crisp and clean over Tekken, Virtua Fighter Remix was a polygon upgrade with a better soundtrack.

looking back now though the first Virtua Fighter game looks dated.

Virtua Fighter wasn't the first game to have fully 3D characters by a long stretch. Check out "Hunter" on the old Commodore Amiga. Although, when I first saw Virtua Fighter in the arcade, what really stood out was the smooth 60Hz framerate and realistic animations.

I thought Wrath Unleased for PS2 was next level impressive
