Welcome to your Doom.

One of my favorite games from the Sega system, let's see who else has something to add!

I was playing it last week on the Sega Mega Drive Collection, it's a good game but I find it kind of hard. Some enemies are just cheap, like the bull things that jump at you :verymad:

This was never released in America, which you should all be thankful for <_<

Altered Beast came with my Genesis. It was the only game I had for about six months and I played the hell out of that game. I agree it was pretty entertaining and challenging for it's time...but...

I really don't have much to say about the game. It slowly scrolls to the right, you collect orbs and kill zombies and monsters. It's pretty slow paced, and there's really not much variation from level to level.

I think Altered Beast claims the title for "Most Exciting Boring Game." I did like the different animals you turned in to.

I used to play Altered Beast at Pizza Hut all the time when I was a kid. We used to go to Pizza Hut when we were tired of the arcade, because they had Altered Beast, WWF: Wrestlemania and Legendary Wings.

A true classic in every sense of the word. I recommend it to everyone, and I especially recommend you hunt down the Genesis collection on PS2 and unlock (something I still hate to have to do in games, luckily it's not hard to do) the arcade version.

I've heard mixed opinions on this game. Some loved it, some hated it. I was too busy playing my Super Nintendo back when I was a kid, I never really had a Genesis. I obviously haven't played it.

I compare Altered Beast to your favorite kids movie from the 80's....
....Sure, in retrospect, it was the greatest movie you've ever seen and you could watch it over and over and never get sick of it, but watching it years later, it tends to lose it's charm.

The same goes with this game.
Most likely, if you owned the Genesis, this was one of the first games you played on the console.
So back then, I mean, could you get any cooler than Altered Beast?
Now, you realize the gameplay is sluggish and repetitive, the graphics are mediocre and the levels are really boring.

I'm not really a big fan of this game... :/ I dunno, it may be because I didn't grow up with it (My first experience was with SEGA Genesis Collection). I just found the game overall stiff and frustrating.

Yeah it's kinda lame nowadays, but when I was a kid it was a whole other level of awesome. 8-)
