An arcade classive, but it’s not as enjoyable as it was 18 years ago.

User Rating: 6.1 | Golden Axe GEN
By CaptainNorris | Review Date:
Golden Axe was one of the first beat em ups ever released in Arcades. While its a classive, the game isn't an arcade perfect port and is extremely outdated.

The background music is classive and still holds well, but the sounds do get repeative and annoying fast. The graphics are bad and the game is also short and nots much replay value in this at all. Theres not much to say about Golden Axe, its a classic, but its just that the game is outdated and is hardly fun anymore. And if you seriously wanna play this, at least play the Sega CD version.
