BillyHW Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Some games combine wildly different genres. Like Actraiser for instance. Which games did it best? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyHW Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 I'll vote for the Super Star Wars, Super Empire Strikes Back and Super Return of the Jedi series on SNES to start. Shooting platforming, landspeeder, flying, tie fighting. And it all gels together to tell the story, so it still feels like you're in the same game throughout.

Rex Dart Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 River City Ransom: stat-grinding and face-busting. Super Mario Kart: racing and shooting. Kirby's Dream Course: golf and action. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torr Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Shining Force I & II Combining Adventure gamestyle with RPG elements with tactical combat was a great idea. It may seem like they didn't really combine anything together at first, but if you play Shining Force CD, where they ported two Game Gear games into one big game, it's VERY noticeable as it's just battle after battle with no over world to wander, no little puzzles to solve, no secrets to find, no townsfolk to converse with, etc... it REALLY loses a lot. That's also why I believe Shining Force II is praised so much more than Shining Force I, because it has more of everything I just listed. I always wanted Shining Force CD back in the day... and was so let down when I finally got to play it in recent years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Final Lap Twin - TurboGrafx - Has a surprisingly fun RPG mode that combines a quest and racing. Ninja Golf - Atari 7800 - combines ninjas and golf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
