A longplay of me finishing the US version of Shadow of the Beast for Sega Genesis.

EDIT - I just found out I pick up all the life drain objects on the last level! In the Amiga version they look different than normal potions while in this game they look the same so I assumed they were all health potions! Bummer :p

I really mess up on the last level as I felt I'd done pretty well up to that point and I wanted to finish it by doing the last part perfectly.. but I guess I got too nervous as I totally messed up.. to the point where I doubted I'd even get through it. But I did :)

This is the hardest version of this game I have played - it's quite a bit harder than the Amiga version.
The reason is that due to bad porting, this game runs 16.7% faster than it's supposed to. Also, the collision detection is horrible and they even removed health from the castle! It's really frustrating.

At times it starts skipping.. this is because I recorded it using FRAPS and at certain points my harddrive started chugging away like crazy. It doesn't happen often though and fortunately not at any critical places in the game as it becomes impossible to play while it's skipping like that.

This is part 1/3 due to Youtubes 10 minute limit.

  • did you do some cheating powers to do this?

  • None whatsoever, other than a lot of practice.

  • why have you activated the antialiasing ... looks like sharpened

  • Because it ran very poorly when recording on my old PC otherwise.

  • This game is so God damn hard, good job.

  • 5:12 - Best enemy ever

  • This game has a weird feel to it hehe, never played it though, heard it was damn hard to beat

  • We own that game, I hate that game (not because it's bad), we never managed it to get further than that weird castle at the right side and I like the music of the Gensis (though the PAL versions are slower in terms of music of course)

  • The original musics were mesmerizing, these ones are just awful.

  • i hate this game

  • Really love the atmosphere and the music. It's like something out of a pleasant nightmare or something.

  • I'm making a HD remake of this game. Check my channel for updates. Please comment on videos and other stuff.

  • Everything about this game was so great. And you who are playing is just genius.

  • you are the biggest motherfucker ever. Congrats
