The Blackangel Posted November 7 Share Posted November 7 What games have you played that was released on multiple platforms, but was completely different in every way from its partner on other platforms. The one that immediately springs to mind for me is Beavis & Butthead. When they were released they came out on both SNES and Sega, and they came out at the same time. But neither of the games had much of anything in common with its supposed “doppelgänger “. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted November 7 Share Posted November 7 Oh, I totally get what you’re saying. Beavis & Butthead is a perfect example of that. Another one that immediately comes to mind for me is Aladdin. The SNES and Sega Genesis versions were released around the same time, but the two games had almost nothing in common! SNES had a smoother platforming focus, while the Sega version let you use a sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted November 9 Author Share Posted November 9 While I can’t say that I’ve played it, it’s my understanding that The Lion King was guilty as well. Actually from what I’ve seen, almost all Disney games from that era were like this. Same name. Different game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorpion Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago Great example with Beavis & Butthead! Another one is Mortal Kombat; the differences between SNES and Genesis versions were striking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially the early to mid 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
