With Aladdin now in theaters, Electric Bento looks back at the battle between the Sega Genesis and the SNES as to who had the better version of Disney's Aladdin game.
The Sega Genesis is a tad underappreciated. This site has already posted about how this console was great for the RPG genre despite the SNES getting more glory. However, that was not the only genre that flourished on the Genesis/Mega Drive.
Shining Force is on my long list of game series should be revived. Same with console Phantasy Star
I'm sorry but I feel the list has been made by a person checking his own backlog catalog.
Mortal Kombat 2? missing half of the sounds and animation from the arcade.
And can we say Super dark soul difficulty when we say Earthworm Jim 2
Here's my pick for still holding up and fun
- Shinobi Shadow Dancer, not too tough nor too easy with a good arcade challenge 1 hour long to complete.
- Gunstar Heroes
- Nhl 94
- Thunder Force 3
Great lost with lots of memories. A reboot of the Shadowrun game and Shining Force would keep me entertained and busy for a long time.
-Soleil
-Sonic 2, 3 and knuckles, pinball
-that one x-men game i always forget its name
-that one fighting game that has different characters (a fishmen, an assassin lady, a private detective from the 70s etc)
-shining force 2
-dynamite heady (probably the best looking genesis game, imo)
-wonderboy in monster world
those are the ones that come to mind ha.
Virgin Interactive's classic Disney video games have just been surprise-launched on Steam.
Good to see that the Aladdin game is the Genesis version, which was much better than the SNES one. Maybe I'll buy it in the next days.
Twinfinite:
Let’s kick things off with one of the granddaddies of awesome fire and lava levels. It doesn’t really matter which entry in the FPS series you’re playing, you’ll still find yourself mowing down countless demonic denizens, eventually stepping foot into that fire-filled dimension yourself.
I might be mistaken, but I think the Gensis version used actual disney artists to help create the visuals.
I had the Genesis version... I both loved and hated that game.
The Mega Drive version is a better game. The SNES version is prettier.
i thought its been long settled the gen version is superior.
one of the few times that was the case but still.
Graphically, Genesis won. But the simplicity of gameplay, music, and atmosphere made me vote for SNES.
