Title: Ghosts 'n Goblins vs Ghouls 'n Ghosts - Which Is Best?
Post by: ZEUSDAZ on 00:02, 19 January 18
Hi everyone and welcome to the January 2018 edition of the "Which Is Best?" and the first of the 3rd series (started back in Dec' 2015).
Last month I placed the arcade classic Gauntlet II against Ranarama asking you which in your minds was the better game Gauntlet type game and after counting all the votes I can now reveal Ranarama is the winner with 21 votes with Gauntlet II receiving 17 votes.
I have to admit as a Ranarama fan I had a strong feeling that Gauntlet II was going to win as it is more well known amoungst gamers so to me this was quite an upset,...not taking away how good Ranarama is.

To start the 3rd series I'm going to place the two Capcom Arcade classics Ghosts 'n Goblins against Ghouls 'n Ghosts, which do you think is the better game?!, only your votes will determine that,...happy voting! :-D

You've just given me a reason to charge my PSP and bring it back to life.

Have to admit I hated both games.  Just didn't find them fun.

However I do enjoy the much more recent indie game Cursed Castilla which is very much inspired by those.  And also Capcom's own PS2 series Maximo which is a 3D spiritual successor of sorts to their own GnG games.  And also the SNES game Demon's Crest is a beautifully made spin-off from the original GnG games too.

Yep the pandora battery. Mate of mine did the hack for me. Played CPC stuff on it religiously after that hack got done before I got the proper machines. Still bring it on vacation at times.
