Herzog Zwei (gen) by far the most underrated game in the history of gaming by so called "profesional" reviewmeisters.

User Rating: 9 | Herzog Zwei GEN
By spiketyrrell | Review Date:
Hezog Zwei was partly to blame for my bad grades throughout middle school. I remember playing this game against friends for hours and hours. Simply put this game was before its time, a revolutionary game that was underated and largely forgotten by the masses. This is a must have for any strategy game player. in the game you are a jet-like ship who can attack hiw jetlike opponent while in his jet form, or he can transform into a giant robot and attack the ground forces that his enemy deploys.

The object is to protect your main base while taking other smaller bases over. The more small bases you have the faster your income increases. Multiple maps, multiple different difficulty settings, and multiplayer all propell this game into history as the first great strategy. I still regard this as one of the best. Not overly complicated, yet it has awsome gameplay. You simply cannot beat this game and is a must have for not only retro gamers, but gamers who love multiplayer extraviganzas.

Sure the grafix and sound are a little 90ish but what do you expect. This game blows most games, including the next gen system software out of the water with its semi-simple learning curve and great gameplay. Fun for everyone.

    This was one of the best games on the Genesis. You play as a giant robot that can transform into a jet. The goal of every map is to get to the enemy headquarters and blow away their base. Your base can build frien... Read Full Review
