Shadow of the Breast on Genesis sucks unless you play the japanese one, and even then the PCE one pisses all over it.

I am ignorant: why is the MegaDrive version better? :)

For me-
Hawk K-123

Not a bad shooter once you obtain some meaningful power ups.
I manage to beat it once.

Best combo-
Powered up Lazer and homing missiles.
OBEY TECH N9NE!

Faster.  Smoother.  Better graphics.  No gimped ass collision detection and nonsense clunkiness.  Straight hood. Ye ye.

Its like a hot super model, or a frumpy bitch with a mustache but a nice body..  Pick one.

Nope. And, even though many folks did not comment, rest assured that Galaga '88 ('90) is well-loved by countless folks. It is such a polished, fun wonderful version that many folks have spent countless hours playing it.

It looks like I may find the MegaDrive version for Shadow of the Beast if it really is better (as you explained). I had no idea the versions were so different. I still remember print advertisements for the Genesis version and thinking (this was before I played it) that it seemed to capture the essence of the Amiga version.

Truer words have never been spoken. Galaga '88/'90 is a great port of a true classic. The only things missing are some very minor "interludes" that have each boss of a given dimension talking crap.

I initially read the above as "each boss of a given dimension taking a crap."
