Electronic Arts' PGA Golf series reigned supreme on the Genesis, though there were a few quality games that saw released. There were also some stinkers, and with titles like Accolade's Jack Nicklaus' Power Golf Challenge, EA's supremacy was in no danger.

Sega changed the fighting game landscape forever with the release of Virtua Fighter, the game many people consider to be crucial to ushering in the 32-bit generation. Sega's 3D blockbuster also received a very good 32X port, and its sequel was even brought to the Genesis! Yes, this franchise has a long and storied history, and we take a detailed look at it in our complete retrospective. Read the full article and start practicing that Stun Palm of Doom!

Arcade-style ice hockey should be fun right? Think NBA Jam with sticks and skates, and it seems like a match made in heaven. Taito's Hit the Ice strove for such a peanut butter and chocolate mix, but it ends up spending time in the penalty box instead. Read our full review for all the body-checking details.

Also, be sure to check out our Video Archive, which has just been updated with almost a dozen new videos. Among the recently added spots is an extended ad for Weaponlord, the Virtua Fighter 32X training video (with some footage of unreleased 32X games at the end), an ad for Sonic The Hedgehog pasta by Chef Boyardee, and Japanese clips for Super Monaco GP and the Mega Drive 2. Enjoy!

On a sadder note, we were recently informed that former Sega-16 staffer Rodger Swan passed away. Our hearts go out to his family, and Rodger will be truly missed. He made the site a brighter place with his informative articles and friendly attitude, and his YouTube exploits in Japan were always great fun to watch. R.I.P. Rodger.

Playing an import RPG can be pretty darn hard, especially when the initial menu screen is the most text-heavy in the game! Such is the case of Falcom's Sorcerian, which shows little mercy from the get-go. Its character creation menu and options are all in Japanese, and it's virtually impossible to even create a character if you're not fluent, let alone actually play the game. Many gamers never got past this, and they missed out on a decent little action/RPG. Thankfully, a partially translated ROM is out there, and it is the only way to get anywhere with the Mega Drive version. We clawed our way through the process and spent some time with Sorcerian, the results of which can be read in our full review.
