Predator 2 on the Sega Master System is one of those old-school side-scrollers where you play as a cop (not the Predator, surprisingly) blasting through a gritty city full of gangsters. The controls are stiff by today’s standards, but there’s something weirdly satisfying about the chunky sprites and the way enemies explode into pixelated gibs. You’ll pick up different weapons along the way, though the shotgun feels way more reliable than the default pistol.

It’s not the deepest game—just run right, shoot everything, and try not to get overwhelmed—but the atmosphere nails that grimy '90s action movie vibe. The music’s got this synth-heavy track that somehow makes even the janky platforming feel intense. If you’re into retro games with a bit of jank, it’s a fun little time capsule.
