I grew up with both Vectorman games on Sega Genesis. Often compared to Donkey Kong Country on SNES. Mostly due to being 2D platformers with some 3D models. But Vectorman actually more of a run & gun style platformer. They were quite creative with the presentation. Instead of the usual Sega logo then the game loads. It stops to allow you to play around the Sega logo with some secrets. It's a rather decent game with an amazing soundtrack. Fantastic sound effects despite the audio chip for the system not great. Vectorman had some mind blowing animations. A good variety of stages to keep things interesting. The same company made two decent Jurassic Park games on the same system. Which you can currently get through Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection. Vectorman does have a learning curve. Some amazing power ups to help through out the stages. It was released late into the Genesis run. I still felt among the best Genesis games of it's year. Vectorman isn't quite Mega Man but more of his own thing. I always remembered the cover for a long time. This was an ambitious Genesis game that held up amazingly well.
Old but gold. Running around the distinct rapid fire "pff-pff-pff-pff" sound effect for attacks was so much fun. The bosses, enemies, and levels were very unique for their time.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.
