Altered Beast: Round 1 (Werewolf) + Options
MeDuViNoXI really like how the boss at the end rips it’s own head off and throws it at you as a weapon.
ummthatguyI wonder if thats where Aqua Teen Hunger Force got inspiration from.
“BORED!!! BORED!!! RIP OWN HEAD OFF!!! BLAARRGGHHH!!!”

Altered Beast III
DeceptichumArise from your grave.
SzethFriendOfNimiThat’s exactly what I thought of. Great on Arcade
And rescue my daughter! I didn’t resurrect you so that you could just lounge around. You’ve got a job to do!
samus12345“Nah.” walks left instead of right
So nostalgic that you can hear it =)
POWER…up
Welcome to your doom!
I'm back on my BS 🤪I, for the past several years, have seriously been saying this to my imaginary audience every morning when I wake up and engage the energy necessary to get to the kitchen and make a coffee. I had a girlfriend in 2019 that would get a kick out of it.
I thought you were going to say you said this to the dishes you left soaking, right before you do the dishes.
why would you think that?
Arise from your grave.
I’d be surprised if there wasn’t this exact comment.
Wise fwom yo gwave!
*gigles*
🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮 🏆I never saw an arcade cabinet for Altered Beast and only played it in Genesis where it was kind of a shit game compared to Golden Axe.
Those bastard gnomes!
So there are already tons of annoying enemies in Fromsoft games, but if they ever put one of these fuckers in something, it would be the single most annoying enemy in any of their games.
Supposedly, there’s a movie in the works, because of course there is. I’d better see a gnome getting beat six ways 'til Sunday.
Mostly because, SORRY. YOU CAN ONLY KICK STRAIGHT UP.
Imagine having to go on some adventure where you sleep directly on the desert floor and it’s full of deadly hand-to-hand combat killing hundreds of people, and thinking, “I’m gonna wear my white and red bikini and red boots.”
It was the 80’s (Golden Axe released in 1989, to be specific) . It was the style of the time.

And these days you get arrested for having a 6 inch replica of the master sword.
ElectricMachmanShe’s so hench she doesn’t need armour
that flying kick is hilarious
Man I gotta go back and play Golden Axe again.
SundrayFeaturing the Ax Battler! The famous… swordsman.
He beats up lots of guys with axes tho
ripcordJust played and beat Golden Axe 2 (arcade) with my kid. It’s great.
Golden Axe 2 was only on Genesis.

Yes, there was a game actually called “Golden Axe 2” on Genesis, but I was talking about the second Golden Axe arcade game.
I thought you might be. It’s a great one! It’s not called Golden Axe 2, though.
Yeah it really holds up, too, IMO.
Sega does, what arcadedon’t.
Don't sleep on "Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder", while not available for Genesis, definitely the best version there is.
And if you're ok with some "jankiness", there are several fan made versions worth your time for OpenBOR:

The consensus seems to be that people only played it because it came bundled with the console
If I had a nickel for every quarter I lost playing this in the arcade…
Thats called a tax refund…I think…wait…
All the 40 somethings in here: “Altered Beast!”.
Everyone else: “Uh, what?”
As a non 40 something can confirm
ddhAs a 40 something can confirm
I’m a simple man. I see Altered Beast, I upvote.
It’s funny to see which things haven’t transferred over through cultural osmosis through the years. I would have assumed most people here would still recognize this. Clearly I’m an out of touch relic!
What are you talking about? Every comment I see here is about altered beast…
Bro I’m early 30s and I was like “OHHHH SHIT MY CHILDHOOD!” haha
You must have older siblings, altered beast was released in 1988
Actually I’m the oldest! I just had a lot of games that weren’t exactly cutting edge at the time lol
Nothing wrong with that! Your parents got you what they could afford, and old games are still fun too.
I may be biased though. I bought a PS4 in 2015, and rarely played it. I bought a PS5 this year, and only have 2 games for it.
But my Switch? I literally made the guy on the Nintendo hotline say “Wow…I wasn’t expecting that many games.”
And honestly? I’m baffled by how I have so many games on my switch. Especially since they all seem to lean towards “These are older games from the 80s/90s, or emulate the style of those games.”
When you can shock a Nintendo represenitive, you know you have a problem.
stands up
Hi, I’m Lost_My_Mind, and I’m a Nintendoholic…
Born in 89 and I played the shit out of Altered Beast as a kid.
Played the shit out of it on MAME on the family computer.
SorteKaninI don’t get it
Old game called “Altered Beast”. You could transform into a few different beasts. Classic side-scrolling game.
ace_garpDetails of the game are here
Was a good 2 player monster beat-em-up.
Good is arguable… Out of all the Genesis games I had I played it the least. Toejam and Earl was where it’s at.
In the arcade it was infuriating and seemed a highly difficult 1CC, but compared to the whole spectrum of 80s arcade games it was good.
The first toejam & earl? Or the second, completely different one?
Because I have…opinions…
