Vendetta by Konami, 1991

And obviously,my first love (and still one of my biggest, i really love SEGA), Sega AM-2 team on the glorious Model 1 board.

This was some really impressive 3D graphics back in the times.

Cadillacs & Dinosaurs. This brings me good memories...

ahh.. virtua racing took a lot of money from me. pioneering stuff and *great* multiplayer fun. daytona, rad mobile and scud race are other sega racers that are well worth a look. for beat-em-ups capcom was of course the king. but while cadillacs & dinosaurs was a great game.. final fight is the one for me. i was offered an original arcade cab of this a couple of years ago and it took all of my will power to convince myself that i really couldn't take it ;(

My all-time fav is probably X-men vs Street Fighter.

Out of shooters Time Crisis (the original) simply can't be beat.

Also agree with evilpaul about Scud Race (Sega Super GT) being "worth a look". Why is there still no home version of that game?

Considering all three games are from the mid-90's there might be an element of nostalgia involved too though.
