Yeah, the backgrounds are not EXACTLY the same, but it's not that much of an improvement either. I mean, the Shadow Priests are in all the other versions too. 32X did add Goro's Lair though, which wasn't in Genesis.

SNES is missing some sounds, especially female screams and the awesome little music that plays after the Fatality logo comes up. But it's a LOT better than 32X's. Kahn still doesn't even finish "you will die, mortal" and he is missing all of his other taunts. The big problem with 32X's sound effects are that most of them are just carried over from the genesis port. If all of them had been redone it'd be so much better.

It's just like the Sega CD version of MK1. It's better than Genesis, but still not even close to being like the arcade.

I think the most disappointing MK game had to be MK1 on the Sega CD. When I was watch the video on the game......I was thinking why couldn't they put that color and detail in the game. MKII for the 32X is a lot better than that trash.

 

[Anyanka]

It's funny how the intro video to Sega CD MK1 is all footage of the SNES version.

And if you want to see REALLY bad MK ports, try the Master System ports of MK1-3.

 

[Buffy4ever]

I hate lazy programs who did the ports of MKII on the 32x and Sega CD MK1 anyway?

 

[Anyanka]

Probe.

 

[Buffy4ever]

Probe did a good version of MK1 on the PC, yes it still not arcade perfect.( but it a lot better than the console versions). I never played MKII on PC how is it? I think Probe did it also.

VF on 32X was better than the Saturn version, the control was spot on!

Chaotix was a great game...but if you expected another Sonic game, you'd be dissappointed. The real highlights were the bonus stages and the music.

Yes, MK1 PC is great. II is just as good.

My personal faves:

Virtua Racing 32X, AfterBurner 32X, Doom 32X, Blackthorne 32X. I remember MK2 32X being a pretty good version at the time but I'm no MK fan who would've looked out for the little nuances. I thought Knuckels Chaotix was stupid, why the hell would you tether two characrter together, when the whole point of the Sonic games is about speed?! Somebody was heavy on the crack rocks when they hatched that idea.

to think I spent like £50 on FIFA 96

:lol

96 was an especially bad year for EA Sports... I bought NHL 96 for PC.... "Amazing 3D graphics"....yeah right...

Anyway, this thread reminded me of the wonderful Neogenesis and my lovely BAE-disc (Big Ass Emulator) =) Back to my Xbox and Neogenesis....

I've never played the Saturn version of Virtua Fighter, so I can't personally tell the difference between it and the 32X one.

Does the 32X version really look better? How is that possible?

The Saturn version was a glitch-fest graphically, and the controls were messed up as well.
