I’ve been reading through Standard Issue Computing’s list of their 100 best SEGA games on SEGA hardware and despite me having never played or even heard of a lot of them, it’s been a blast. As the title suggests, any game developed by SEGA on SEGA hardware is eligible (but it appears some games are only published by SEGA).
I love personal favourites/best lists as it’s just one person making the decisions and if you don’t like it, you can make your own. Much less ire than an IGN list could provoke.
