Shadowrun – Sega Genesis
Shadowrun uses some good graphics and a good story to reel in its player. Make wise choices though as you could be forever entwined in a battle to make your character strong enough to proceed through the halfway decent plot.

Home Alone 2 takes the setting of the second film and decides to rewrite the story of a clever and industrious kid into something more fitting for an 80s action star.

Read at your own risk!

Home Alone – NES
Back in the 1990s, it wasn’t unusual for companies to take anything vaguely marketable to kids and turn it into a video game.

Bill and Ted’s Excellent Video Game Adventure – NES
What is it with great movies and bad Nintendo ports? Brought to us by LJN, no less. Like Beetlejuice, Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure is a movie that came out in 1988- scratch that, ’89. Damn, I was on to something here. Anyway, the first Bill and Ted movie was awesome. Highly quotable, fun story, and with enough self-aware cheese to keep you entertained all the way through. Then in 1991, just as we were insulted by LJN with their port of Beetlejuice, we got another winner with Bill and Ted’s Excellent Video Game Adventure. But here’s the question: Could it get any worse than the Beetlejuice game? Well, why don’t we come along with ZB and take a close look at Bill and Ted’s Excellent Video Game Adventure for the Nintendo Entertainment System and see if we can come to a conclusion on the matter at hand?
