Other games were slowdown city, especially that early on in the console's life, with more than about 5 sprites on screen (final fight urgh) - but that game chucked out dozens if not hundreds of moving things and barely a flicker Played it A LOT and yes was bitterly disappointed by the pleasure dome considering it took me months to reach it remember being mildly jealous that the Megadrive port, whilst a bit shit, included the gore and explosive deaths (flying eyeball when stepping on a mine etc) but that's kids for you

Surely, the magnificent Gunstar Heroes should get a mention.
