It came as described. Game played great without any bugs. This game takes me back to my childhood.
First, the concept for Joe and Mac is brilliant. Killing dinosaurs to save cave babes with green hair? What part of that isn’t awesome? You get to throw stone wheels or bone fragments (and when you get far enough, even the mystical FIRE–ooh) at bad guys, you fight sea monsters and pterodactyls and you do all of this against a pre-civilization background. This game mostly works in the old school mario left to right screen format. However, every couple levels or so, you come across something new (a water level, a level where a pterodactyl sweats mightily to haul your butt to the top of the trees while you fight beehives so that you can fight an even bigger, evil pterodactyl) which help keep things fresh so it doesn’t turn into Castlevania. Also, this game is actually pretty long and even with continues, it’s tough to get through the end bosses on the number of lives you have. I distinctly remember losing my last life on the totally trippy pink brain level (I know, crazy)and experiencing a level of frustration that most video games simply can’t elicit from me. However, just a few days after chucking the controller at the tv, I was trying again. And I love, love, love the sounds in the game. The music is cheerful and has lots of caveman-type drums and there’s something really wacky and somehow perfect about the myriad grunts and screeches the cavemen and monsters make as you play.
Very fun side scroller. Boss battles get a bit redundant, but still fun all the same.
This was one of the most nastalgic games from my childhood! I mean, what could be better than going around prehistoric times with a friend, and bashing every enemy you come across. The game is full of fun enemies, cool but challenging boss fights, and awesome power-ups. The game gives you and your friends lots of continues so you can still make a decent number of mistakes before you get a game over. That being said, there is no save feature, so make those continues count! My only main complaint about this game is that if you move to fast and your partner falls off the screen they die. What’s up with that? How about just make me character unable to move forward instead of killing my friend? Is that too much to ask for? At any rate, this game is lots of fun, especially with a friend, and is still pretty good even when going solo! This is a great game to add to your collection!
The game did not respond to the system automatically but after a few tries Joe and Mac worked! My fiance is very pleased. Thank you very much.
Je l’adore ! Un vrai retour en enfance 😄
Fun game
Joe & Mac maybe the most awsome Super Nintendo game Ever!! I like all the weapons you can get like Bones, Boomerangs, Fire, & Stones. Stones are the strongest weapons. It had a great adventure in it. I mean you fight T-rexes, Teredactles, Anklosaurues, Plants, & a little red & blue devil you kill at the end. Yep it sounds like a dinosaur adventure to me. Now the light and picture on this game was so much better than Nintendo & Sega!!!
This is one of my Favorite games for the Super Nintendo. You are a Caveman that gets to fight Dinosaurs and rescue Hot Babes. What a reallycool prehistoric adventure.
Awesome game just short
