I have this game.... yeah true the graphics aren't pretty but overall the game is very good fun.

[sheedrock1]

the 3D version is actually alot of fun

[darkfakt]

The game is a very bad remake but the OST is perfectly rearranged!

[jeff22rson]

epico

[TheTerminator1919]

They did a good job with the remaking of the music

[TheBardsSongCGS]

This looks ugly compared to the arcade original :/

[1Sandwitch1]

wow...its in dumb 3d? wow...I was hoping they'd remake it with Sprites again...now that I know it looks like this crap...I wont be getting it

[rang3r34]

@TheRockwell12 NO?? Oh, well.....

[TheRockwell12]

@rang3r34 no.

[misterneckbreaker88]

looks decent, to i liked the one on megadrive,

[rang3r34]

I actually wanna buy this! I know these updated versions don't look so hot, almost PS1 quality graphics and all, but I wanna at least give 'em a try. Does this game also include the originals as well?

[StonedAssassinNZL]

wow look more crappy then master system ver

[brunoguitardreamer]

Could be better, but it's nor bad, I liked it.

[brunoguitardreamer]

Ver o game em 3D com sua essência conservada é excelente. Ouvir as músicas com sua roupagem nova então... nem se fala! Perfeito!

This 3D version is awesome! The graphics are new, but the game keeps the essence.

@danirannavit Are you talking about Golden Axe: Beast Rider? If so, Golden Axe from the Sega Ages still holds the Title of the Worst Golden Axe Game.

Beast Rider delivers a Adventure Experience. Sega Ages Golden Axe is like an Arcade and I played it before, not a worthy game. Only beat it on Co-op.

So, did you played both games? Or did you just saw them by Gameplay? You have to play at least one of them.

Are you sure this one is for PS2? The graphics seems to a PS1 game... Anyway, compared to Xbox 360 Golden Axe, this one is good... But Mega Drive/Genesis one is still one of my favorite games... The music sounds very good!

[danirannavit]

better than GAxe for xbox360.......

The graphics. Just impressively bad. I thought that the average high-budget PS2 game looked like utter crap on an HD screen, but this is the bottom of the barrel. It is the top of the barrel for Nintendo 64 games, but not for a system that is clearly more powerful than the Nintendo 64. The fact that Tyris is scantily clad does not save her from looking like doggie doo-doo.

I see a lot of great ideas in the game, I'm just not sure they were executed the right way. It still looks like a good game and it is great to see all the old levels in a new light with all the new detail. I prefer re-treading old ground in a new way rather then making something new and rubbish and setting it in the same universe.

[AStarAudio]

@UncleFeedle Totally agreed. Flashes are fine for lightsabres but not for swords. More gore would have been great!

[AZULES88MU]

Los graficos para ser realizados para ps2, son horribles, pixelados sombras circulares, animaciones roboticas, en fin el juego esta divertido por su esencia clasica, pero por lo demas es un juego de la primera playstation

[MysticArksRevenge]

@NerissaVal I think so. I think neubies at Sega were given the task of doing this game. Granted, the music is good, and I do like the HUD system in this one, as well as giving the enemies their own HP indicators, but nothing beats the original Genesis version.

[MysticArksRevenge]

@ixekun I agree. I do like the music, and the HUD system they made in this version, but the gameplay does need work....

[MysticArksRevenge]

@Ultraboy94fsr I like the Genesis version more than this...

@UncleFeedle

I completely agree with you. And about 3D, it's always easier to develop a game in 3D since there are ready to use 3D engines and it's time consuming to code a new 2D engine from sratch and make 2D game assets.

Diablo 3 is a good example to this. I think Diablo was way better looking in 2D but it is very time consuming for the developers to create interactive 2D assets since in Dİablo 2 you can literally wear or carry tons of different items that needs to be drawn in 2D.
