Spider-Man: The Animated Series follows Spidey throughout six levels and features a bevy of villains as well, but the result sadly proves to be a tiresome bore. Read the full review for more details.

Phantom 2040
King Feature Syndicate’s The Phantom has been delighting readers since the 1930s, and every so often the character is revamped for new audiences. One of the most recent attempts came in the form of a new cartoon series that spawned a comic book and video game. The Phantom was recast as a young man turned hero in the mid 21st century. Phantom 2040lets the player control the Ghost Who Walks in a great adventure that bears more than a few similarities to Nintendo’s Metroid. Oh, you’ve never heard of it?

Stormlord
What better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than with half-naked fairies? That seems to be what people remember most about Razorsoft’s controversial title Stormlord. Of course, there’s some deep gameplay in as well, but there’s something about those fairies that has kept the game in the public consciousness for two decades. Either way, Stormlord is worth checking out. Whether you’re in it for the cleavage or the challenging puzzles, this might be a title you need to play!
Revolution X
They say music is the weapon, and if that’s true, then Revolution X is a nuclear bomb. Dull, repetitive gameplay with some of the worst renditions of popular music you’ll hear on cartridge is rounded out by a total lack of light gun compatibility. That’s right friends, Revolution X is a shooting game that doesn’t use any of the Genesis light guns. Still feeling crazy? Think you’re livin’ on the edge? Well, that’s amazin’! Head on over to the other side then, and read our full review for all the crazy details, and hurry before I die from this hole in my soul (or before I squeeze in more Aerosmith song references).
Disney’s Beauty and the Beast: Belle’s Quest
Roar of the Beast was the first of our two-part review of Sunsoft’s Beauty and the Beast games for the Genesis, and we finish things off today with a full review of the other release, Belle’s Quest. An odd pair of platformers, the two play like a single Sunsoft title that was divided in half. We know how the first one is in terms of quality, but is the second part any better? Apparently not…
