Classic Game Room HD reviews the original GOLDEN AXE for the Sega Genesis video game system. This is one of the most iconic games from the 16-bit era and this Megadrive review of Golden Axe shows gameplay footage from this amazing 2D side scrolling beat em up hack and slash from 1989. Originally created as a brilliant Sega arcade game, Golden Axe saw popularity with its Sega Genesis release in ‘89. Players can choose from 3 different characters: Bohunk, dwarf and hot chick in bikini with sword. Each character has different strengths and magical abilities. The girl in her underwear can summon dragons and the other two summon girls in their underwear (no the don’t, but it would be cool if they did!) Golden Axe is played from the Sega Genesis Collection on PS2 Playstation 2 for optimal video quality. It is a great collection as well, check out the PS2 Genesis collection for great games like the Golden Axe trilogy, Shinobi 3 and Sonic the Hedgehog. This game should also be on the Xbox 360 and PS3 Sega Genesis Ultimate collection. if you like Conan and swords and sorcerers kind of stuff then this game should be right up your alley. Check out GOLDEN AXE review from Classic Game Room and pick up this game cartridge or PS2 collection today.

i had this game for my megadrive when i was a kid…. i liked it alot and it has a BIG nostalgia factor for me… when i found out that they released Ultimate collection for ps3 got it…. (20 dollars)… i would have payed 60 dollars for the collection… timeless classics!
@EnglishTurtle sorry to say but i actually does, lol i killed my own teammates because of it
This is an awesome game. I played this with my sister countless times, and i still do. She always picks the fire lady and i always played as lightning dwarf. I picked the bomb man in blue before which was a mistake because he sucked. But this game is awesome and i even made it to the final lvl ( and loss)
Does this game have that annoying thing in co op where you can hit your own team mates? I hate that.
This game brought me awesome memories. I’m planning on getting Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis collection, and a Sega Genesis USB controller so that I can play it on the PS3.
This game amazed me. I just loved the combat overall.
@raaspider
that’s why i never got bored of this game lol
I had this on the gameboy advance, along with sonic spinball and some dolphin game
the arcade version has super graphics sound and gameplay.
this is the first review which has a happy ending (the main character not dying)
just realised the Death scream is recorded from Conan the Barbarian.
wow, laughed so hard when the dragon rider fell off the side.
Can you consider in doing it’s two sequels please.
i played it when i was young and im 12
it was on one of those plug in and play games together with 5 other classics
Memories. woah.
I remember playing it on old DOS computer
@EmperorDinobot
To dash/run you need to push the control pad (left or right) twice.
eg: left left (hold) = run
left left (hold) + jump and then attack = Death Stab
left left (hold) + jump = jump higher than normal jump
left left (hold) + attack = barge
the skeletons were hard but what was the biggest pain in the ass were the draconian in the 2nd one.
hell yeah great game but cant slaughter them villagers lol
I could never figure out how to dash or run? Help plz? I’m playing the Sega games for PC one….
i got this on the PS2 collection, its also downloadable from Xbox live arcade, the best is to download it from Xblarc (Xbox live arcade) cuz then u can get tons of Achievements
I remember playing this XD
it is a good time to visit it again
mine too. my bro bought it and I beat it b4 him
My favorite character is GILIUS the dawrf
Ha ha ha!!! =D
wacaaaalaaaaaaaa
that was a rather fun game aye mate
Sorry about your grandad.
What the hell?
None of those count.
X-Men.
Some of my favorites include Daytona USA, Time Crisis III, Ms. Pacman, Cruis’n World, and Galaga.
my favorite is Hydro Thunder!
DDR is such a fucking high school game to play. People just showing off that they can step on squares that coordinate with the fast moving arrows on the screen.
Simply put….NOT A CLASSIC!
Right now i’m just playing with MAME, but i hope to get some actual machines when i’m older.
Your so lucky been after one for ages
lol I think Street Fighter II was number 1 for a lot of people. I have my own Street Fighter II machine, which I think is a childhood fantasy for a lot of people.
Wonderboy in monster world is awsome!!!
did you ever know about the dynastic hero for the turbographix cd?
HOW COULD U NOT PUT DDR!!!!!!
Cool man i got a few ARCADE GAMES. i got— Karate champ,Section Z,Super Pacman,Donkey kong jr,Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(1991)Desert Assault(1991)
Super mario 2,Elevator Action,Duck Hunt,Super Mario,Shinobi,Ms. Pacman,Frogger,Pole position and like 40 others waitin to be fixed,i just got into cause dude is selling everything hes got for $30 a game so im buying them all,just got done gettin Karate Champ goin.
ok i love the fact that street fighter was number 1,but why did’nt you put Ping pong in your list?
ping pong is my favourite clasiic retro game
well i used to play it at the arcade in westcliff so erm….yeah it is
dude super mario isn’t arcade
haha…this brought back a lot of memories…thamks for posting.
cool list dude. u shud check out mine
played ports but never played them on actual arcade machines.
very good games though
Have you seriously never played Mortal Kombat or NBA Jam? or have you and you just didn’t like em? Anyways those are my 2 fav arcade games
nice list dude…SFII is the shit. the Simpsons is badass as well
Damn, I really wanna play The Simpsons Arcade! I don’t think it’s on Xbox Live Arcade yet (but TMNT Arcade is).
Never knew Mario World was an Arcade game too. Sounds cool that you had giant Nes controllers
I’d also love to try the Arcade Time Crisis too. I’ve only played a PS2 demo of one and that was pretty snazzy.
Maybe I’ll try House Of The Dead one of these days too, but it probably, again, wouldn’t be on an Arcade. Damn, I’m jealous!
i never liked wonder boy…it was kind of like kid icarus only worse =/
oh really. If you get the change to go to Central America, and go to any arcade place, you will find all the metal slug collection. Well cool videos, nice choices.
