Blazing Lazers

As much as I love digging into new console libraries, it can sometimes be challenging to know where to start. I've looked at a few games on the TurboGrafx-16 at this point, and I certainly plan on checking out a few more. But again, there's the question of how to pick which ones to try next. Do I try and stick with the more well renowned titles on the console, or do I try to keep looking at titles that are less well known. Looking at the better games ensures you are giving the console a fair shake. But at the end of the day, my purpose here is to look at forgotten titles and that means going the latter path. So, which is it. Well, I guess I'll do a little bit of both. And besides, you could probably argue every game on the TG16 is "off the beaten path" in the eyes of a North American gamer, at least the ones that aren't ports. I also think that when you are looking at genres that aren't necessarily your favorite, you really want to look at better example...
