 Welcome back. This is Classic Replay and this is the Sega Saturn Top 10. Ah, the good old Sega Saturn. Does anybody really understand why it failed? What pushed it over the edge? Was it the Sony PlayStation or a distinct lack of marketing? It was released in the mid-1990s and it had a strong start in Japan. Some say it ultimately failed to compete with the Sony PlayStation and Nintendo 64 in the global market. I think it was because of the limited third-party support, which ultimately made it less appealing to the consumer. And I'm sure there's many reasons that people will cite, but all these factors contributed to the Sega Saturn's commercial failure. Number 10, Shining Force III Shining Force III received positive reviews from critics who praised its detailed story, strategic gameplay and large cast of characters. However, because of the Sega Saturn's failure in the market, the game didn't sell very well and it was only released in Japan and Europe, not in North America. Number 9, Virtua Fighter II Virtua Fighter II is considered to be a classic fighting game and is generally well regarded by both critics and fans. It was praised for its smooth animation, realistic fighting mechanics and diverse cast of characters. It was also one of the first fighting games to feature 3D graphics, which was a major selling point at the time of its release. Number 8, Duke Nukem The original game, Duke Nukem, was well received by critics and players for its fast-paced action, humorous storyline and iconic protagonist. For me, I personally enjoyed this game for the over-the-top violence and over-the-top confidence. Ooh, and don't make me forget the adult themes and offensive content. Number 7, Dragon Force In Dragon Force, players take on the role of one of eight rulers vying for the control of land. You must build, manage and conquer territories. The game's graphics and art style are heavily influenced by anime and fantasy. It is considered a cult classic among fans of the strategy genre and is still highly regarded by many players today. Number 6, Fighters Megamix That rhymed, released by Sega's own in-house AM2. Overall, Fighters Megamix was a well-rounded fighting game that offered a unique and engaging experience. Its innovative gameplay, variety of characters and stunning graphics made it a favourite among fans of the genre. Number 5, Guardian Heroes If you're after a well-rounded and innovative game that offered a unique and engaging experience, then Guardian Heroes is the game you've always longed for. With a fantastic combat system, branching story paths and stunning art and animation, it doesn't get much better than this on the Sega Saturn. Number 4, Knights Into Dreams Knights Into Dreams is a 3D action game developed by Sonic T and released for the Sega Saturn in 1996. You fly through dream-like levels, collecting orbs and performing stunts. The game features impressive 3D graphics and bright and colourful art style. Knights also features a great story. Number 3, Panzer Dragoon II You've got rail-shooting mechanics with exploration and RPG elements. The graphics for the time were absolutely stunning and on a CRT TV they still pack a punch today. Many say it was ahead of its time in terms of gameplay mechanics, graphics and storytelling and continues to be remembered fondly by players today. Number 2, Panzer Dragoon Saga Epic battles with a memorable soundtrack aside, Panzer Dragoon Saga is considered a classic because it offered level design and emotional storytelling by pushing boundaries and the art of the possible. The game won several awards and is considered one of the best RPG games of all time. Ah, 10 games is not enough! Bonus! I just couldn't leave Radiant Silvergun out. It's developed by Treasure and it was released for the Sega Saturn in 1998 and it's considered a classic for several reasons. For me personally, this game offered masses of replay value with hidden levels, different difficulty levels and multiple endings. This is the big one, Sega Rally Championship. Overall, Sega Rally is considered a good game because it offered a challenging and realistic gameplay experience. Stunning graphics, memorable soundtrack, good replayability and a multiplayer mode. It was a game that was well received by fans of the genre and is still remembered fondly by players today.
