I'm thinking of buying a 32X at Wal-mart, but I need to know what games
came out for it before I think of getting it. I saw that Doom was
available, but I can get that on my PC. Anything else worth mentioning?

Virtua Fighter is a great conversion. I have also heard Shawdow
Squadron is a great game.

Stay away from the Golf. Metal head is a mediocre Doom clone.

Um, did you have anything else to say besides quoting me? Hmm? ;)

(Please repost your comments, they didn't come thru.)

Star Wars Arcade is decent. I didn't like Zaxxon Motherbase. I felt
even more claustrophobic playing it than I did with classic Zaxxon.

FYI, if you're using both the original Genesis and Sega CD, you may not
be able to run Flashback at all. The same disc worked fine for me on my
Gen 2 and Sega CD 2. I still haven't seen the 32X mode, as it's still on
my original Gen/CD stack.

If you like Afterburner, the 32X afterburner is nearly arcade perfect. I love
it.

I think my favorite 32X game that I have played is Super
Motorcross. Space Harrier, Afterburner, and Brutal are also good
games. I didn't like MetalHead, well that's not quite true.
Metal Head was Ok, until I played Iron Soldier on the Jaguar.
Then I thought damn, MetalHead just plain sucks.

I still want to get Starfleet Academy, FIFA 32X, and
Kolbri. Maybe Blackthorne and Spiderman too.
I have 2 32X games for sale or trade if anyone is interested.

Shadow Squadron, NEW, box + Manual in perfect condition.

RBI Baseball 95, box + Manual in Excellent condition

Both games shipped for $22 total
