Anyone remember this classic? I was checking out some old video games for nostalgia and came upon this one... it was pure gold back in the day... you couldn't find a better game than this if you contracted someone to design one for you... but by today's standards it, of course, falls behind... now I really wanna play it again... I just wish i could find my Genesis and buy the game.... all I have are my Master System, Atari 2600, and atari 400/800 (which i can't even hook up anymore :()

Ah the smell of dust and gore... mmm, delicious...

There's a review here:

And it also turns out that this is the title of a porno... I won't bother linking to that... let's see how many of you thought I was talking about that one...

Hell yeah. I had totally forgotten about this game. Real spooky and gory. It was one of the best Genesis games. I still have my Sega and this game. Now I just have to find them.

I don't know, but I saw a picture in an old gaming magazine and the masked guy had a shotgun. Sounds good to me.

Too bad the monsters were not people, if they were it would make for an awsome Jason game:D

The Original was released on the Turbo-Graphix 16 and PC Engine in 1988: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~wizkid/arcade/splhouse.html

Splatterhouse 2 was on the Sega Genesis in 1992, here's some info on it from this site: ( www.videogamecritic.net/ genss.htm ):
"The first Splatterhouse, released for the Turbografx-16, was a fantastic hack-n-slash video game. This sequel provides more of the same, but it's too repetitious. The main character is a guy in a hockey mask. The sights in this game will remind you of every horror movie from Friday the 13th to Evil Dead to Hellraiser. Most of the creatures splatter green blood when hit with a two-by-four, a bone, or any other weapon you can find. The bosses are particularly large and disgusting. Unfortunately, many of these monsters simply require too many hits. This trend continued with Splatterhouse 3.

The Third was released in 1993:
"Sometimes you don't feel like dealing with complicated controls and strategy; you just want to kick butt. That's what games like Splatterhouse 3 are for. Your character, decked out in jeans and a hockey mask, must make his way through a huge mansion in search of his girlfriend. As he progresses, he has to beat the stuffing out of an endless supply of grotesque monsters. Some of these things, particularly the bosses, are downright disgusting! As the name indicates, there's plenty of gore. Apart from a few special moves and weapons, most of the fights are of the "punch, punch, kick, etc." variety. It gets repetitive, but at least you can hit several monsters with one punch when they're close together. Power-ups let your guy become temporarily bigger and stronger. Graphically, the rooms look great, and the characters are large and colorful. There are several ways to move through the house, and plenty of traps and surprises. The cheesy story line is developed through the use of digitized images which look pretty cool. A password is provided at the end of the game. Splatterhouse 3 isn't too deep, but it's a good way to take out your aggression.

Ah the nostalgia... this last site helped me find the name of the game that I worshipped along with Splatterhouse on Sega Genesis: Shinobi III! It turns out that they've made a new one... I just hope it's good...

All of you should really enter www.the-underdogs.org , where you may find all of these old classics for free, and you can play them at your computer by only installing a little emulator.
