    A quick time diversion and better left for those with strong nostalgic memories only.

    The graphics are horrible, and made even worse by that hellish "smoothing" filter. Your powered-up hero has a bulky weightlifter's body with a tiny comedy head on top, while enemy designs are lumpy and ugly.

    Altered Beast is a classic game that is stylish and creative. Not only that, but it doesn’t fail to deliver amazing gameplay.
