I just played Wiz 'n Liz for the first time recently. That game is faster than Sonic!

[Alianger]

sure, its a lot simpler visually though :)

[Doom2Guy]

I thought Wonder Boy III was on the Master System

Good to know it's also on the Mega Drive/Genesis

[Alianger]

Yeah, however they are completely different games. This one plays like the first wonder boy, with autoscrolling levels and no adventure elements to it. still worth checkng out though.

I find the TG-16 version of Devil's Crush to be much better sounding.

Also, Gauntlet IV has an impressive array of instruments. o_o

[Alianger]

While this version doesn't quite make full use of the hardware I think the instrumentation is more fitting for the game, sounds more menacing. TG16 version has a warmer and more dynamic sound but not as powerful guitar/organ leads. Yeah GIV sounds amazing for an orchestral FM soundtrack.

Alianger i have to admit that you rule.

[TheUniqueMaster]

Yay, Gods' ending theme is awesome.

[codeman38]

According to in-game credits, the music in Gods is by John Foxx. Interesting that they didn't keep his opening theme from the Amiga version, then...

[sybnios]

Ys FTW!!! Devil Crash is superb as well! Strider's atmosphere is unique and last but not least Gods is something else!!

Every single one is excellent but I couldn't help it and picked my favorites :P

Great video series dude!

[suacidlecunt]

[YouOpaOpa]

I loved the Gods main theme. There was some kind of chant going on there.
