The first games consol I had was a playstation one - I went into curries (a shop) and bought a Mega Drive, 16" portable colour TV and about 5 games (they didn't have any bundle packs when it first came out), it cost me a fortune 
Anyway that was the end of social life for at least a couple of years I must have ended up with 40 or 50 megadrive games. There was a game called Herzog Zwei which I was addicted to

The premise is that two opposing forces are in combat with one another. Each player controls a jet airplane which zooms across the screen and may turn into a ground based soldier. These ground soldiers can hurt enemy units, but can not affect bases. To take over bases scattered across the map (and ultimately, the enemy base), players must purchase new units and transport them to certain positions. In this way, the player acts more like a transport and management for different types of units rather than a combat character themselves. If the plane is ever destroyed, it restarts at the player's base location. As previously mentioned, a level is complete when either side's base is lost to the opposing forces.

I would buy another Mega Drive just to play this if I could find the game - does anyone know of a PC alternative (or even better, a PC clone of this, or XBOX deriritive). I also loved paying Desert Strike also, the one with the helicopter.
