"I've heard that sparkster (The Sequel to rocket knight) is better on the genny, but I only have the snes one. I also think Pac-man 2 works better on genesis, because the SNES version has Ms. Pac-man as an unlockable game, while the Genesis version has Jr. Pac-man, an all new game (It's different from pac-man jr.)"
What are you talking about? I've never heard of a Pac-Man Jr. There was a Jr. Pac-Man released in arcades in the early 80's that was ported to the Atari 2600, 5200, and Atari 8 bit computers, but I've never heard of a Pac-Man Jr.
S'true. The Genesis version of Pac Man 2 has a "new" Pac Man game called Pac Man Jr., which is not at all similar to Jr. Pac Man. In fact, this is clearly the only reason to pick up Pac Man 2, which STINKS on any system.Originally Posted by Leo_Ames

For example - Beavis & Butthead on the Mega Drive was so much better, and was completely different to the Snes game...
And Tazmania... Well, the Mega Drive one was a decent platformer, but the Snes one was a poor game where you simply went down a road like thing - Almost like a driving game really...
I find developers still did this later on with certain games - Ie, The World Is Not Enough on the PS1 is completely different compared to the superior N64 version... Although similar, the N64 level designs and missions were so much better.
Thankfully this trend has not carried over so much to the three modern consoles... Maybe just a few differences here and there to compensate for the Cube's poorly designed controller, or maybe a few extra's for an Xbox version, but not major differences...

Bram Stoker's Dracula
Mortal Kombat (1)
Mortal Kombat 3
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
WWF Wrestlemania: The Arcade Game (The SNES version lacked 'big' characters like Yokozuna and Bam Bam Bigelow... And Bam Bam was my favourite wrestler to use in that game!)
home alone 2 and lost vikings are superb on the genny, i have both versions of each and i like the genesis ones better
not home alone (original one) was best on NES IMO even though the graphics were improved, it feels like a different game on the genesis which i dont like as much as the NES original.
A few that haven't been mentioned yet:
Bubsy - I've gotta say the Genesis version of this game is way better. I tried playing the SNES version a few months ago, switched it off after about ten minutes and turned my Genny on instead. ^^
Jim Power - Ungodly difficult game...the MD version only has one song playing for the whole game. Or at least as far as I got...nowhere near as far as I got on my SNES cart (how the heck do you beat that giant warship thingy anyways?)
I'm currently undecided between Super Bomberman 2 and Mega Bomberman...Mega Bomberman seems like a very cool game, but not having a Genesis multitap kinda stifles any sort of fair comparison there. Anyone have any thoughts on this one?

IMO all the Genesis games are better... I can take 'em on the port' with a Nomad Out of the HUGE list here is what I remember playing for both.
Aladdin (Disney's) (Genesis)
Lethal Enforcers (Genesis - you can use the gun to play Snatcher!)
Monopoly (Genesis - game had a more finished quality)
Mortal Kombat (Genesis - RED blood, non-pussified fatalities)
Mortal Kombat 3 (SNES)
Mortal Kombat II (SNES)
Pit-Fighter (Neither - It blew on both equally)
Raiden Trad (Genesis - I prefer my shooters on the genny)
Shadowrun (Genesis - Better game than SNES but, both are great)
Sparkster (Genesis - No Slowdown that I found on SNES version plus Genny has Rocket Knight Adventures )
Zombies Ate My Neighbors (Tie - Equally fun on both)

Batman Returns:
SNES VERSION BY DEFAULT!
Because of how powerful the SNES sound format is and Konami knows what great game music is all about, this is the only Batman game to have that awesome orchestra-style music that's heard in the movies.
IF not already mentioned, B.O.B. for sure.
Noway, the Genesis six button pad had shit all on the snes controller! Plus sega had to make a pad to play the game, since the original only had 3 buttons,Originally Posted by Fatghost28
All the street fighters on the snes murdered! all the genesis ports of SF2 and Championship edition wasn't on the snes either
I hated genesis controllers!
..XS
I always thought Flashback and Prince of Persia were better on the Genesis. Its been too long though, I cant back that statement up with any relevant information. ^^

END OF LINE
I agree with the color pallet problems on the genesis, but I liked Jurassic Park more on the Genesis than the SNES. It was a great side-scroller when I was a kid. I may sound weird by saying this, but I enjoyed Castlevania: Bloodlines more on the Genesis than Super Castlevania 4...but it may just be me (Dracula X-japanese release excluded)
There's a reason there's a banana in my ear...I'm trying to lure the monkey out of my head.
Aladin and Adventures of Batman & Robin. To me, MK was wayyy better on SNES. The graphicz were awesome and I didn't mind the spit rather than blood, but it doesn't really matter cuz SNES version of MK II and MK III pwned the Genesis versions. Yes I have played the Genesis version, and if you compared the graphicz....you'll see. Earthworm Jim was way better on Genesis and Boogerman....
Edit: Aladin and Adventures of Batman & Robin on Genesis.
Sorry for another post, since I can't edit 1st post I submitted. Rock N Roll Racing is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better on SNES. No stopping of the music while Larry talks. The music sounded bad and also I'm pretty sure I heard the Sound effects on one of the Sonic gamez.
Aladdin does not count as it was two completely different games by different companies.
Capcom's SNES one had beautiful graphics, but simplistic platformer gameplay.
Virgin's Genesis one had more cartoony looking graphics and animation and more advanced gameplay.
But in the end, the Genesis' ending sucked ass, looked shitty and just blew. SNES version's battle was more fun, more beautiful and was satisfying.
I've played both and beaten both. SNES still won that one.
