For shits and giggles someone should do Rondo of Blood vs. Symphony of the Night (Playstation). Not the same game I know, and I own and have played through both, but a side-by-side would be fun since there are some of the same locations appearing in both.

Further down are side by side comparison shots, the clock tower has the most similar layout but i don't have any shots of that level.

Hey Tom, none of the rom sites i trust have BC Kid but from screen shots Ive seen look less colorful than bonk, of course bonk 2 is the bonk i think of when i think of the pce games.

 :clap:

it's amazing how good the pce can compete with the psx gekka no yasoukyoku grafx. and that was almost 32bit state of the art 2D grafx! considering the pce is almost a decade older than the psx.

Wow, the PCE version holds up really well in those shots, considering the age difference.

wow

there is some badass reasoning of why the PCE kicks a whole lot of ass.

The only system Ive seen compete equally is late end SNES stuff like Bahamut Lagoon and Chrono Trigger.

Holy F%#*!!!  :shock: I can't believe how well the PCE holds up. There's one or two shots where the PCE actually looks better. I'm impressed.

Those were great shots.  Some of those Rondo sprites were definitely seemed to pop up later in SOTN.

No doubt that SOTN is better looking, but Rondo sure did age well for a game on an 8-bit system!

And she's having nothing of it. She's just looking away, ignoring him. Considering a dis of that magnitude it's no wonder it turns into a boss fight.

Thanks for that, awack. That was just what I had in mind.... Although it's a pity you didn't have any of the clock tower, because that was one area in particular I would have liked to see a comparison of.

Hey Black Tiger, i just checked, the 1st boss in valis III for the pce doesn't have the chain.


Picture just to show some of the art and detail that most people probably don't notice in rondo.







Some snes vs genesis.
