Golden Axe III
SCORE: 50
It feels really good to finish off the
Golden Axe games I own with Golden Axe III on the Sega Genesis. This
beat up a few guys, move a short distance and do it again home console
video game tried some new things in its third release. Like a giant
panther man character being added to the three other main characters.
Which was interesting.
Expect the violence, enticement to lust, and magic elements to be high
in Golden Axe III. Sega rated it for Mature Audiences when they reviewed
it. Which was before the ESRB. The ESRB retro reviewed it, giving it a
‘T’ for Teen rating with Animated Violence being the only descriptor.
Somehow barely dressed women do not warrant any mention from the ESRB.
The sound effects in Golden Axe III are certainly showing their age.
Some of the magic spells look like screen glitches (panther man).
Fighting the same looking enemies gets boring - even with some mild
color swapping. Taking different paths is a nice inclusion in the
series. The enemies still take forever to kill off. The four continue
credits assist with the replay.
