First NON SONIC Sega Game You Played?

[Comster]

My first non-Sonic SEGA game is either Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, or Ecco the Dolphin for the SEGA CD. Sorry, I do not remember which one I played first.

Fairly sure it was Spider-Man vs The Kingpin.

Either that or Michael Jackson's Moonwalker.

 

[Leon]

Phantasy Star 4, not even a question for me.

alex kid (onboard sms bios game)

 

[bigstinkie]

altered beast on the mega drive. off the top of my headzors it is still my favourite mega drive game.

 

[UnDubious]

That Altered Beast artwork is great. I didn't like the game as a kid, but I ended up appreciating it once I got into games like Splatterhouse and whatnot.

Gunstar Heroes (Treasure) was one, if not first SEGA game I've played besides Sonic the Hedgehog way back in the early 90s on my neighbors Genesis. Then Dynamite Headdy, and Ristar followed.

strider with a turbo controller - the first game I finished

 

[groundbeef]

Star Jacker in the arcade. Then Shinobi in the arcade and on the NES. After that Golden Axe in the arcade.

"Hey, Hey, Hey!"
"Come on over and have some fun with Crrrrrazy Taxi!"

 

[Taukyrie]

I want to say it was Sakura Wars: So Long My Love for the Wii. I probably played something else before then, but that's the first one I can remember that wasn't Sonic.

 

[Amakuchi]

Can't quite remember, but it was either Crazy Taxi, OutRun or Alien Syndrome.

 

[Hourai]

I really liked bullying Pac. Think I only got past the first third once, because my cousin had the Mega Drive.

 

[Amag0k1]

Golden axe

 

[iamthemilkman]

Ristar

 

[WildRiders]

I have foggy memories of playing a Sega arcade racer at a laundromat when I was small. My intuition is telling me it was OutRun 2 (this would've been the 2000s) but I could easily be wrong. If not that, then one of the Genesis games on the Ultimate Collection for PS3, probably.

 

[DrunkGecko]

I believe it was either Comix Zone or The Ooze
I played it on one of those Sega compilations

 

[SuperSampleStar]

Lemmings.

It was O.K., but then I got ToeJam & Earl, which held my attention longer.

 

[Nelson2001 Nelson2001]

Vectorman (1995) & Vectorman 2 (1996) (As Unlockable Games of SGC (2005) after 4 and 7 hours of play from the compilation)

For me, it was most likely the Mega Games I cartridge, so my first non-Sonic Sega game was either Super Hang-On, World Cup Italia 90, or Columns.

I can definitely remember the first game I rented. Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle. I absolutely loved that game, even though I found the ending underwhelming when I finally completed it 15 years later.

Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle was the first Genesis game I played that wasn’t a Sonic as well. I was a kid, and the title of “SEGA’s mascot before Sonic” intrigued me. I found it okay, and still do, but I’d guess many of the Master System entries are far better. Hopefully, there’s less “Ro-Sham-Bo” in those, which can determine how fun your journey is in a way that is entirely up to chance.

 

[Moreno909]

Well, I discovered SEGA games with arcade emulation, so Golden Axe and Altered Beast

Get that ring to read minds and rock-paper-scissors isn't a big deal.
Pretty sure OG Alex Kidd (in Miracle World) uses the same concept for bosses.

For me it was either streets of rage or columns. I just remember having both MegaGames 1 & 2 and playing all 6 games to death, even when i was bad at the games.
