"Save anywhere" is still very rare on consoles, but it's becoming the standard on PC by this point, being further popularized by Wolfenstein 3D and Doom, Monkey Island, SimCity 1-2 and Dune II for example. One console exception is the Ys series (PCE CD, SNES, MD). No more keeping the system on overnight!

The fourth generation of gaming was a period of significant genre evolution. Fighting games were redefined by the combo-based action of Street Fighter II, inspiring countless imitators and establishing a lasting legacy. First-person shooters exploded in popularity with the release of Wolfenstein 3D and Doom, laying the foundation for one of the most popular genres today. Real-time strategy games found their footing with Dune 2, introducing the core mechanics of base building, resource management, and unit control that would be iterated upon for decades. God games like Populous gave players godlike powers to influence and guide virtual societies, offering a unique blend of strategy and simulation. Squad tactics games like Syndicate offered a more strategic approach to action, tasking players with controlling small groups of units with distinct abilities. SimCity popularized the city-building genre, allowing players to design and manage their own urban environments. Cinematic platformers like Prince of Persia and Another World pushed the boundaries of storytelling and presentation in 2D games. This era also saw the rise of iconic franchises that continue to this day, including Sonic the Hedgehog, Mortal Kombat, and Civilization. The fourth generation was a pivotal time for gaming, establishing genres and franchises that would shape the industry for years to come.
