Radical Rex (Sega CD) Part 1

READ THIS BEFORE VIEWING!!! IMPORTANT INFO!!!
I wasn't going to post this until tommorow but due to the fact that I saw only videos of the SNES version I kind of had to for the purpose of variety. I've actually played all three ports of Radical Rex, so before you Nintendo fan boys harp at me I just want to say that I am not saying that the SNES version is any better or worse than this version. I am saying however that this version has the best quality audio out of the three ports.

I still like the SNES version's layouts a little more. The Sega CD and Sega Genesis/MegaDrive version use different level layouts than the SNES version. Also the Wizard in the SNES version is replaced by a gopher like thing. This could possibly be due to the fact humans weren't around during the time of the Dinosaurs so they decided to replace him with a Gopher-like rodent. He still works well in the game but you can't help but laugh at how totally non-serious the gopher actually is.

Enjoy listening to the CD Quality Audio too! The Sega CD was capable at doing that, its just too bad it never really caught on in the US. I still think it did better than the 32X addon that Sega had. The Sega CD didn't cost Sega a place in the Console making industry, the 32X did.

Well, I hope those of you who have never seen, played, ore even heard of the Sega CD version enjoy it as much as the SNES or even the Genesis/Mega Drive version of the game. =P

You know what's funny? I've heard from different sources that Radical Rex CD does not work on the Sega CDX. But you know what? My copy plays just fine on my CDX!

I guess I'm just lucky.

@tiakpark It's probably just a rumor. =) Lots of rumors are around about the Sega CD. Including the 256 color rumor. ;)

[tiakpark]

@glitchhunter09 What's that?

[glitchhunter09]

@tiakpark Basically, the Sega CD was capable of displaying 256 colors onscreen via technical trickery. This rumor's not true and the only game said to use it is constantly debated as having it and not having it. I talked to the Executive Producer and Designer of the game in question (not this one, the one that's supposed to use the 256 colors.) and he said both sides of the argument were right. Not sure what that means as he likes to speak in riddles a lot. lol.

for a prehistoric game, i think chuck rock and bonk take top honors

[glitchhunter09]

@benjamillion Oh yeah, I agree tbh. Though, I grew up playing the SNES version of this as a kid. It was pretty fun. Though it's kind of cheesy, it's definitely work at least one playthrough. The Genesis and Sega CD versions have different layouts for the levels, and the final boss is different. Other than that, they're very similar, though the Genesis/Mega Drive and Sega CD games are harder and there's an enemy that only appears on higher difficulties that's in all dificulties on the SNES.

Nice video, I liked how you entered the options menu just to give us a glance. Do you know why doesn't this game have anything on its gameFAQ page? I want to know how many levels are they, it gets a little confusing because they repeat a lot and there isn't any sign about the levels. I was curious why isn't there much info about it.
