Best Sega Genesis games?

I've never really delved into the Genesis library. Please recommend the best of the best of these categories:

Action/adventure (Zelda-type or otherwise)
RPGs
Strategy

Don't bother recommending platformers, sports, or racing games - I don't care for those.

i was going to mention Greendog because it stars Twin Twist but you don't like platformers

but definitely get comix zone! and streets of rage 3.

Phantasy Star 4 (I would recommend 2, but 2 is extremely challenging and probably only values itself on its nostalgia). Phantasy Star 3 is ok.

Shining Force 1 and 3, Shining in the Darkness.

Zelda-type (Landstalker, and Crusader of Centy, and Beyond Oasis, which is pretty awesome).

Dune: Battle for Arakis
Herzog Zwie (Way ahead of its time)


I once farted on the set of Blue Lagoon.

just grab sonic's ultimate genesis collection, and you'll have most of the good stuff taken care of.

Castlevania: Bloodlines (Sort of a platformer though.)
Any Streets of Rage game but the fourth one is kinda goofy.

Probatecor, its hard as hell but a great action game. Has 2 other bots then the reguler 2 so 4 to chose from.

Landstalker I also recommend highly.

Crusader of Centy (or 'Soleil' in European markets). Excellent action-adventure game:

I knew you were my brother from another mother. Target Earth was the shit, but be careful that you don't recommend a game to Mega Moon that will give him a heart attack.

After seeing a video of the gameplay, I don't think that's going to happen. It looks like a typical platformer to me, honestly.

Crusader of Centy looks pretty good, though.

Target Earth is a shooter. There's really not too much platform. But God Damn it's hard. Hey Mega. check out Herzog Zwie. It's like the early RTS type game, but instead of a mouse pointer, you play a Transformer Robot/Jet that deploys your troops but stays and fights along with them.

And you get them in 720p.
