I thought of putting Bonk1 vs. Sonic one, but I think Sonic would've destroyed Bonk, so I wanted to think of a different platformer that was both fun, but privative. I thought it was a decent match. Although I do like Bonk quite a bit, I enjoy Alex Kidd almost equally. Bonk's Revenge, on the other hand, would've destroyed Alex for me. Maybe Kid Chameleon or Decap would've been a better match-up?Quote:
Also, Why didn't you pair up Sonic CD with Bonk. Sonic CD to Drac X seems like a weird comparison/vs.
I think we feel the exact same on this one. What if I'd put TFIV instead?Quote:
- Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle < Bonk's Adventure: No contest, really.
- Thunder Force III < Gate of Thunder: God, this is a super hard one. Both are my favorite. For now, it's GOT, but it could go TFIII any other time.
They are both shitty games!Quote:
- Fighting Masters < Fighting Street: I guess Fight Street because I have history with it. But that's not really fair since it IS a shitty game.
Agree on Ys, but to be honest I really do like Thor a lot. I kind of wondered if this being a Sega board would affect this one.Quote:
- Beyond Oasis < Ys Books I&II: Ys all the way. Never cared for BO (pun intended ;) )
Totally disagree! Sonic CD, along with Sonic 3 & Knuckles, are the absolute pinnacle of the series for me (including SA and everything after). In fact, when pop in a Sonic game (usually a couple times a month), it's either Sonic 1 (for a short round) or Sonic CD (if I have a bit more time).Quote:
- Sonic CD < Dracula X: Rondo of Blood: No contest. I'd take the original Sonic over Sonic CD. Sonic CD feels like a fake/rip off Sonic game (and not a good one at that).
Thanks for the good post, btw. It's interesting to see why people pick the games they do.
Bonk's Adventure>Alex Kidd. Nothing needs to be said.
Gate of Thunder>Thunder Force III. Two awesome games, but Gate of Thunder is the better game.
Fighting Street<Fighting Masters Fighting Masters is the smaller pile of shit.
Ys>Beyond Oasis Thor's awesome, but Ys outclasses it.
Dracula X>Sonic CD These two are two of the best on each console, but Dracula X has more replay value to me.
PC Engine (Goddammit, why didn't that Turbo CD guy get back to me?)
I'll have a PCE Duo lot for sale pretty soon. PM me if you're interested.Quote:

PC Engine easily won in on the market, if you want to take that perspective. (I'm assuming the MD and PCE names implied the Japanese market)
I did not only list MD and PCE.Quote:

My vote goes for the PC Engine since the only game you listed for it that sucks is Fighting Street, as for the Genny games listed this time I'm just not a big fan of Alex Kid in The Enchanted or Fighting Masters
I honestly don't get the love for Alex Kid. It almost looks like an 8-bit platformer and the gameplay is rather stale, even for its time.
I like Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle, even if it is overly simple.
PC Engine for Dracula X. Awesome game!
I thought Sonic CD would've held up better, to be honest. Maybe Sonic 3 & Knuckles would've put up more of a battle?
Well, some of the 8-bit installments, especially Miracle world are often considered better games, so that could be part of it...Quote:

Sonic CD could have been "less accepted" in contrast with the others of the series, but it's quality for sure beats many other games.Quote:
