I always think it's interesting to watch these modern reviews of retro games. The thing that many people don't understand though is that back when these games were released, people had a very different context of what makes a video game good. You never heard someone complain that a game's controls "aren't intuitive" or things like that. It was more so looked at as part of the experience of the game. Especially for the Genesis, people wanted something that brought the arcade experience to the home. This was the appeal of the console. How closely a game replicated the arcade experience was often the benchmark of what made a game great. You couldn't save your game at the arcade and come back an play it the next day. Save states were not as common as they are now. On either console, this isn't a fantastic game. They're not bad games though either.

this one definitely made me think Console Wars needs to do Judge Dredd (one of my all time Genesis faves!) BTW love the vids please keep making them; all of the extra writing you do with the segments and characters are awesome. I love how both of you epitomize a certain type of gamer, and how Greg always gets all belligerent about how nintendo is better because of extra features, and then Dan is all snarky about Sega being cooler. also very funny is how "just like the movie" and "just like the cartoon" are such common refrains. It takes me back to my youth as a sega kid; i remember playing a lot of these games

I recently replayed Alien 3 for the Snes and while I agree with all of Greg's points (it IS the better game), it can also be rather unforgiving if you don't know what you're doing. The password-system only saves between areas and you only get one life with no continues. So you need to complete all of the 8 missions in each area in one go or else it's back to the title-screen. Thankfully, though, items respawn upon exiting a room so you can go back and forth and restock on health for example if needed. Usually, though, that means plowing through endless waves of constantly respawning aliens to get the items you need while already low on health...

The difference between the SNES version and all the others is the inclusion of a mission-based system. Each stage takes place in a specific section of the complex. Terminals can be found within the hallways, which link up to a static list of tasks that must be completed to advance to the next section. These missions can be taken in any order, and include rescuing prisoners, destroying eggs, welding damaged pipes, and picking up power packs from one room and taking them a generator in another. Unlike the other versions, you don’t have to worry about a time limit here. You’re free to hit things at your own pace.

What? No map on a 2d sidescroller with only one way to go? How will we ever find our way?!?! All joking aside I cent tell you how valuable your channel is. Although its painful and kind of depressing/sad to look back at these knowing I got the genesis for my 12th birthday & at the time it was the most hi tech home gaming system ever. With inflation it was prob very close to what the ps5 will start at. These videos of yours have taught my two nephews 18 & 16 just how spoiled they are & how tough it must've been me growing up. They thought I had to battle raptor's for food and my life. while that's not true since the last velociraptor died 2yrs before I was born. In their eyes this is even a harder truth to live through. I try to give them perspective by reminding them that we didn't have great home gaming systems previously. So while it may not look great now it was mind blowing stuff to us. They say no uncle, we understand we are lucky. You did have it tough, no wonder why you ended up having drug problems. Before this we never understood how that happened but now we understand. Of course you did, I dont see how it is that everyone from your generation isn't a bunch of drug addiction recovering, child's video game system hogging, sleeping in the dog house cause wife's mad at the amount of time he spends on rd2, gta5, 2k18 & God of war 4. Freak out throw stuff world's greatest dad. Ok nephews we get the point yes your video games are light years better than mine. But in Some ways my childhood was much better. Then they said all the kids @ our school lose their viginities in like 4 sums (3 girls) instead of with just 1 chick. Fuck you Tyler, fuck you hunter. They felt so bad they're buying me a ps5 & 3 hookers when it comes out.wtf I cant even afford a used ps3 & 1 hooker

When I finally beat it and realized it's not that long, I definitely felt the SNES version was better overall.

As just random side scrolling shooters/platform games they are pretty much equal. But when you take into account the Alien licence the SNES version just does a much better job of conveying the look and feel of the movies. For instance the music is actually cooler in the Genesis version but the fuller, more orchestral sound of the SNES version is much more fitting for an Aliens game. The SNES version is also graphically superior and captures the gritty, dark look of the films.
