    Genesis Picked up 4 new Genesis games...

    Went to the local used store and saw they had some new genesis games in stock. 99% of them were sports games (PASS) so I picked up the 4 non-sports games they had: Shadow of the Beast II, Ecco The Dolphin, Lotus II and 688 Attack sub.

    Shadow of the Beast II: Wow....what a wierd game.... >_>
    Lotus II - Lotus fun - always wanted to own a Turbo Esprit IRL :P
    Ecco The Dolphin - How high can I jump? High enough to make the world go crazy-go-nutz! X_x
    688 Attack Sub - I remember renting this game brand new and being so lost and confused on what to do....most of the time the enemy Boomer subs picked me up and killed the crap outta me before I even finished figureing out the controls and what-not.... maybe now that Im older I can have another go at it and it'll make more sense.... right? 0.o Anyone else find this game hard? -Ben

    I wish I could find a single Mega Drive game in my entire town.

    We've got 2 places that carry them - Media Madhouse and Disc Replay. Disc replay is a bit farther of a drive, but they've got a little bit bigger selection of Sega stuff in general. Wish there was always more though....but I know Im spoiled compared to some who have little or nothing available....

    688 Attack Sub is definitely hard! I'm still confused, years after its release. You are not alone.

    Do you know about the hidden game in Lotus II? Change your name to "Pod Please" and press B, and woila! A fun little shooting game called "POD!"

    I have frequented both of those stores, but you are forgetting Michiana Used Media which is just a little south of Disc Replay on Grape Road and Orbit Music on McKinley. Lots of Genesis goodness to be had at all four of those places.
    It is finished!

    Im glad Im not alone on that one! All Ive been able to do so far is sink a buncha friendlies and get creampuffed by enemy missiles/torpedoes just minutes after getting underway. I'll have to check out that mini game though - thanks! -Ben

    WOAH!! I picked up Lotus II for $0.79 at my local game store many months ago and my friend and i were really looking forward to some competitive racing on the Genesis but it turned out to not be that much fun.
    But now with this hidden game (that is 2 player co op btw) i can get so much more out of my 79 cent wonder!! Thanks man! Rep given
    I am known as Theretrogamer12345 on Youtube and Sega-16. I am known as Gunstar Hero on Digital Press. My eBay account is Theretrogamer

    Hey, thanks! Glad to help extend that $0.79! POD is certainly worth that and more.
