I, for the past several years, have seriously been saying this to my imaginary audience every morning when I wake up and engage the energy necessary to get to the kitchen and make a coffee. I had a girlfriend in 2019 that would get a kick out of it.

Was a good 2 player monster beat-em-up.
16 0 ReplyGood is arguable... Out of all the Genesis games I had I played it the least. Toejam and Earl was where it's at.

I never saw an arcade cabinet for Altered Beast and only played it in Genesis where it was kind of a shit game compared to Golden Axe.

19 0 ReplyImagine having to go on some adventure where you sleep directly on the desert floor and it's full of deadly hand-to-hand combat killing hundreds of people, and thinking, "I'm gonna wear my white and red bikini and red boots."
10 0 ReplySo there are already tons of annoying enemies in Fromsoft games, but if they ever put one of these fuckers in something, it would be the single most annoying enemy in any of their games.

3 0 ReplyDon't sleep on "Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder", while not available for Genesis, definitely the best version there is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6inP3NQPXY
And if you're ok with some "jankiness", there are several fan made versions worth your time for OpenBOR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUybVkHLRMo

This would be an awesome plot for an Alterered Beast sequel (and a satisfying thought to keep while working out)
It would be awesome for those who played the original game and those who have no idea what it is!
