Twenty years of Genesis: pick the next XBLA release
Sega is celebrating the 20th anniversary of the SEGA Genesis, a game system that I’ll readily admit is near and dear to my heart, by putting giving Xbox Live Arcade fans the power to choose the next game to be released on the service.
By visiting genesispoll.com, fans can pick from one of six Genesis classics between August 14th and August 21st. Those classics include Earthworm Jim, Golden Axe II, Shining Force II, Revenge of Shinobi, Streets of Rage, and Toejam & Earl. As of this writing Toejam & Earl is in the lead.
The results will be announced on Saturday, August 22 at genesispoll.com. My only question: where is Phantasy Star IV?
