During the 16-bit era, it was normal practice for Sega to release home versions of their arcade hits that were almost different games altogether. This was seen in Moonwalker and Shadow Dancer. Another game to receive the treatment was ESWAT: City under Siege.
Genesis Reviews
Phantasy Star IV: End of the Millennium
Some say it’s the best in the series. Some say it’s the best Genesis RPG ever made. However you feel about it, there’s no denying that Phantasy Star IV is the a monster of a finale that sent the original storyline out with one hell of a bang.
Toki: Going Ape Spit
Everyone loves monkeys, especially when they spit stuff at people. The two are the chocolate and peanut butter of the animal kingdom. And what do you know? We happen to have a review for a game that features both them. Toki: Going Ape Spit was a an original game, instead of a straight port of the arcade hit, but you’ll have to read our full review to see how it holds up.
VectorMan 2
So we’ve talked to a few of his creators, and we’ve reviewed his first adventure. Is that it? Not at all! VectorMan still has a few things to do, so join us in our full review of the spectacular sequel, VectorMan 2!
Punisher
The Punisher was a decent arcade brawler that made the jump to the Genesis mostly intact. Whether it’s alone or with a friend, there’s some classic Capcom beat-’em-up action to be had here, so read and see if this one is worth the high asking price.
