It got us through! (Well, my Gameboy Color with Shadowgate and Metal Gear also helped). Funny thing was, the magnetic fields are so bad from the arresting wires and gear that the TV we used was always purple and wavy. Good times. Anyway, that game doesn't really hold up now, going back my memories were a little ruined. I did a 7-month cruise on an aircraft carrier and one of the guys in my unit had a Saturn with Crazy Taxi.

The best fighting game, and the most original, since SFII, and it was almost completely ignored. Virtual On.

I saw the game while I was working for a video game store and had to buy the console and the game. I still play it to this day but had to purchase an external cartridge to save my game play. I had never heard of the game until Saturn became a defunct console. I think the best game for the Saturn is Dragon Force.

I also really like Clockwork Knight. Blazing Dragons is a funny point-and-click adventure that everyone should try… I also really like Clockwork Knight.

Its strength was really as a 2D system. From SHMUPs like Darius Gaiden and Thunder Force V to fighters like X-Men vs. Street Fighter and Samurai Spirits, it was an arcade rat's console.

The Saturn is the only Sega console missing in my collection. I'd love to get it, but my sgnificant other has put significant limits to my retrogaming collecting habit. Really wish I could say.

I discovered it a few years ago and was blown away by the quality of the graphics and music.
