The three 16-bit Golden Axe games were the bee’s knees… so is Saturn Golden Axe: The Duel the cat’s meow? Switching to a 2D 1:1 fighting game, the game retains many of the series’ charm, but the underlying fighting game is average at best. Initially a low-key ST-V release, the Saturn port is quite accurate, but the arcade original never set the world on fire. Golden Axe fans will love it… probably… #BestOfSaturn?
A Saturn fan since the beginning, Peter plays Saturn almost exclusively. For Peter, Saturn represents a moment in time where 2D games were at their best, 3D was just rising, and fascinating gaming ‘firsts’ were commonplace. There are very few Saturn games that Peter cannot find some enjoyment in!
