Title: Big Game Matchup TWO
Post by: runinruder on June 27, 2007, 03:45:22 AM

I think this is a bit of a slaughter, myself.  Dynastic Hero has some nice music and a couple decent-looking stages, but Dragon's Curse annihilates it in gameplay and level design.

I had to vote DC because I've never actually played the Turbo version of the sequel. Although I *have* played Wonderboy V on the Genesis which is mostly the same game aside from the music, if I understand correctly.

Wonderboy: Dragon's Curse has an awesome factor of infinity. Wonderboy V's awesome factor is actually a tangible number.

No contest here.

DC is way better as an actual game.

At first, DH/MWIII seemed like everything I wanted in an adventurey Monster World game, in that it seemed to be a larger evolution of WBIII/MWII with nice 16-bit aesthetics.

But one play through was all I could handle before it became tedious and boring orverall. The play progression/overall design just isn't very good.

Where as DC/WBIII/MWII is the pinnacle of thre MW series because of the great layout/progression. It still looks and sounds great on any system, but its the gameplay and real fun that everyone loves it for.

They're both awesome, but I prefer Dynastic Hero 'cause it's a little more varied than Dragon's Curse.  Maybe it's the A.D.D. kicking in, but I get a little bored with Dragon's Curse.  D.H.'s red book soundtrack don't hurt either.

I voted Dragon's Curse, even though I still haven't played through all of Dynastic Hero. Granted I love both games, but Dragon's Curse is pure old skool fun.

Dynastic Hero. Because of the grafficks. Sure, the level design is a joke, but at least it is nice to look at. I think Dragon's Curse is too hard.

Dragon's Curse.  Both are great games, but I feel DC has a bit more personality, not to mention speed and fun.  Music's better as well.

Yeah, the soundtrack in DC kicks ass, especially for HuCard music. One of the best.

Not fond of either game, honestly...where the "Neither" option? :-({|=
