Gunstar Heroes is not my favorite Genesis game, nor do I frequently play it, but how can you spend 5 minutes with it and not realize that it's one of the most amazing Genesis games of all time? Graphics: perfection. Sound: great. Music: super. Gameplay: fast and furious. Are there enough adjectives I can use in praising the virtues of this game? I will admit Gunstar Heroes is a bit difficult for me though, unless I'm playing it on easy mode. Some of the bosses are just too hard, even early on in the game. Or maybe I just suck.

If you want to show off your Genesis to a SNES fan, this is the first game to stick in.
