Golden Axe (SMS) Reviews and User Stories

Ah, Golden axe, one of the absolute best games on the Megadrive/Genesis, when i heard that there was a Master-System version, I was overjoyed. Mistake.

The once great music has been ruined by tuning it down to Master-System quality, it seems like a the music was ripped, then sent through an audio filter.

The Graphics, admittedly looked a bit wishywashy (the palette) on its 16-bit counterpart, but they look like a 6 year old crayoned it in while half asleep, and they are obviously missing animation frames.

The gameplay is its only redeeming factor, it retains the hack and slash style of the Arcade original, and is admittedly, quite fun.

Great opportunity, Ruined.
