EU VC update 07/09/2007

No TG-16 games this week for the first time in ages, but we did get five Mega Drive games! Obviously there's no Super Metroid, but it's a Sega week so it was to be expected.

Sonic 3-

Would be better if we had Sonic 3 and Knuckles lock-on game (i.e. the complete Sonic 3). As always, I'd recommend getting this on the Sonic Mega Collection instead.

Crack Down-
http://www.vc-reviews.com/review/85/crack-down.php
Overhead shooter. Has nothing to do with the Xbox 360 game Crackdown.

ESWAT: City Under Siege-
http://www.vc-reviews.com/review/84/eswat-city-under-siege.php
Platformer/shooter, similar to Contra.

Ghouls 'n Ghosts-
http://www.vc-reviews.com/review/4/ghouls-n-ghosts.php
More ultra-tough platforming fun the Ghosts 'n Goblins series.

Shining in the Darkness-
http://www.vc-reviews.com/review/205/shining-in-the-darkness.php
First-person dungeon crawler, first game in the Shining Force series.

I had a feeling we'd see the latter two this week (already released in America), but sadly no Landstalker for now. :sad:

Sonic 3 and Ghouls 'n Ghosts are great, I've never played the other three.

Wow five games in one week! Sweet Sonic 3!!

I wonder if Nintendo employees are actually reading our posts? I kept recommending, getting 5 games a week. I hope they keep that pace. Even if they were 5 bad games, the odds are stacked in your favor of at least getting a few great ones per month.
