Batman (Sega Genesis)

Overall Grade: C+

I always get sort of annoyed when people say superhero games all suck. People have been revoking this statement as of late due to hits like Batman: Arkham Asylum and Marvel vs. Capcom 3. In all fairness, good superhero games have been around since the days of the NES. A lot of people are familiar with the NES Batman game based of the 1989 Tim Burton film. People cited that as one of the few good superhero games for many years. Were they not aware of its Genesis counterpart? That's what I'm here to review, the Genesis version of Batman. The Genesis "Batman" game is a completely different game from the NES version. There isn't a wall-jump, it's not nearly as difficult and you only have Batarangs and your fists. There are also driving and flying (in the Batwing, no less!) sections. 

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist

Overall Grade: B-

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were a staple of the late 80s and the the early 90s so  it's only natural that they had tons of games in that period of time. One such game is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist for the Genesis. This title is often compared to Turtles in Time for the Super Nintendo because they came out around the same time and they were both beat em ups.  Sometimes Hyperstone is even mistaken for a port! Be warned however, these games are fairly different. Underwhelming, I know.
