Ah, the infamous Saturn port of Castlevania - Symphony of the Night. You would think that an updated version of one of the greatest games out there would have been a huge success. After all, the Saturn version of SotN did have some extra content not found in the PS1 or the version packed with the PSP Dracula X Chronicles. New enemies, two new areas (technically four if you count their inverted versions), new items and weapons, Richter playable from the start and an extra playable character in Maria Renard. Formula for success, right? Well...not exactly. The vanilla version of the Saturn port suffered from added loading times, downgraded graphics and serious slowdown that, despite the added content, made the Saturn version of Symphony of the Night pretty inferior to it's PS1 counterpart. Massive props to the modders who translated and modded this game to make it playable.

Playthrough of the Saturn version of Mega Man 8, which has a few things going for it over it's PS1 counterpart. It has a slightly different soundtrack, a bit of an uptick in graphics with lighting and underwater effects. It also has two extra bosses, Cut Man and Wood Man, that are exclusive to the Saturn version. I've also noticed that there are a few extra enemies throughout the game. Worth your time if you can track it down.

Longplay of the PC version of Streets of Rage 4. While no mods were used, I did use a custom soundtrack. Basically, I recorded the gameplay with the music volume turned off and then used my editing software to insert a custom OST with tracks from mostly previous SoR games with a few tracks from other games.

Playthrough of Contra: Hard Corps using Sheena. Path taken: Research Center / Fight to the End plus Bad Ending Final Boss: Alien Cell Sheena is a pretty solid character. Her slide is the best in the game, which is handy for getting out of hairy situations and her weapon loadout isn't too shabby. The piercing qualities of her C Laser is great for hitting shielded enemies and her D Laser is the best homing weapon in the game. The only drawback is the lack of damage of the D Laser.
