the sega cd was far superior to turbografix cd in both processing power scaling and memory it had many games that the sega genesis alone couldnt handle and it was the first cd system to become popular with the mainstream what killed the sega cd was too many fullmotion video games were u watch the game like a movie but u dont play and more powerful systems like the 3do came along making it seem outdated so sega hurried to push it aside for 3d x then saturn but for its time it ruled and theres still alotta games for sega cd im looking to buy eye of the beholder a port of the pc masterpiece and bram stokers dracula based on the 1992 coppola film are my 2 favorites on the system bram stokers dracula isnt the same game they made for genesis or snes the sega cd version is in digitized 3d its not a sidescroller it has music from the film and full motion movie clips the castle itself was modeled after the movies castle and u walk around it in early digitized 3d visiting locations of the movie if i recall it was considered amazing for the time i think they used to include the making of bram stokers dracula(cd version) with the movie back when it was on vhs and it showed how the team used the sega cd to capture the castles look and the actors i think its the most advanced game on sega cd and 1 of my early favorites

I hated the sega cd. All the make your own music videos games starring kris kross and marky mark and the funky bunch. Sewer shark, Scottie Pippens video basketball. The list goes on and on. The only real game I ever even seen for the system was Lunar, and Sonic CD. Total waste of technology, it could have been cool.
