Indiana Jones' Greatest Adventures (SNES), a review

For once, an actual enjoyable Indy game. I'd definitely suggest playing it, if you get a chance.

Didn't like Emperors Tomb much?

I thought it was fine

[filmnstuff]

Actually I liked Emperor's Tomb, except for the fact you had to shoot Nazis fifty times to put them down. Also the tank level was awful. If I could do PS2 games, that would definitely get a Levels from Hell segment.

The airplane fight is in the game.

It's the second stage in Berlin...

[filmnstuff]

I meant the fist fight around the flying wing with the Nazi mechanic in Raiders of the Lost Ark, not the dogfight in Crusade.

This is now on WII Shop Channel to anyone who wants to play it.

I dont think it was Spielberg, Lucas is loosing his writing talent. I doubt its the directing, as with the new star wars movies, its most likely the script. I personaly liked the movie, sure it was no Raiders, but it was still a fun movie to me. Then again, I liked I Am Legend while everyone else seemed to hate the movie.

Actually there WAS a great NES game: The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles.

Comparing SNES graphics and gameplay to NES and Atari 2600 is like comparing a steak dinner to a hotdog... this review tells us very little really because all your comparing it too are the shitty Indy games that AVGN tore appart. Compare it to similar games on the same or similar platform. How does it compare to games like Castlevania IV, Super Metroid, The Adventures Of Batman & Robin, Earthworm Jim... you know other action platformers (two of which also use whips).

god damn game, it's good yet it fucking punches me in the balls every time I play it. That boulder level still haunts my dreams, all the those spikes making you do a split-second jump, which if you go wrong, you're dead. That's it. The stages are way too long as well. The first few levels are grouped nicely enough, but then the second stage of levels just goes on and on, making the password system fucking pointless. I want to love it, but the stupid difficulty yanks me back every time.

ive watched a fair few snes reviews on youtube recently and fair play m8 your the the best reviewer yet- its gotta be said the irate gamer or what ever hes called who seems like a professional reviewer is a pure and simple (very simple boring wierd man) dick. I dont have a clue why you have a fraction of his views but thats why youtubes crazy

What do you think indiana jones and the temple of doom nes

[purvicide]

The two graphic adventure Indy games for the PC were good, if you like that sort of thing.

[Trancemaster2052]

Oh man I remember this game very well. Been at least 15 years since I've played it but it was so much fun. I grew up watching the Indiana Jones movies so this game was definately one of my favorites for the SNES. Probably still the best Indy game ever released.

[PuksisKissa]

The last crusade on the Genesis wasn't that bad :)

[XOneGameR]

Amazing game. This one and Super Star War Trilogy is of my favorite SNES games. The only flaw in this Indy game is that they didn't include all the adventure (which is understandable) for example: motobike chase with his father from Last Crusade, Boat Chase also from Last Crusade. Any other stuff in this game is brilliant , the music , the sound is very Indy like. The atmosphere is superb and difficulty  balance is well done.

Great review and thanks for bringing memories back.

@filmnstuff isn't it enough with that level he mentioned? that was a great level
