I really enjoyed this game back when I had a TG-16 in the early 90's. I went back to replay it on an emulator and this style of slow paced platformer has long since been outmoded. It was really risque for it's time but rather tame by today's standards.
Oh yeah, it is definitely not something I see modern gaming fans having the patience to play and enjoy, that is why I make sure to point that out when covering it. I see so many other writers posting about this claiming it is amazing and all this stuff hyping this up - that type of coverage is just going to backfire and hurt credibility, I think anyhow.
While I enjoy it, I was there to play it in arcades a couple of times, never got it on TG-16 but I got the sequels on Sega Genesis.
I agree, this is very tame compared to today. Just like Mortal Kombat or Night Trap. Both were headlines and congressional hearings back in the day but are severely lacking in anything out of hand compared to today's offerings.
Like Full Motion Video games, I downloaded a demo of one the other day, a horror one, it was quite disgusting for my tastes and I uninstalled it. One scene was a very graphic sewing shut of a woman's mouth with burlap string.
If a company tried that back in the Sega CD days, they would have been bankrupted by the lawsuits and other legal troubles.
Not saying it has no place in gaming, just that graphical of stuff is not in my interests.
Mortal Kombat, well, I think most reading this know how graphical that franchise has gotten - a decapitation is nothing compared to the newer stuff. 😂
