Check out my complete game comparison of Thunder Force II on the Sharp X68000 vs the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive! Internet scuttlebutt says the X68k version is far and away the superior game. Is the internet right or did they miss this one? Here's a general summary... the game looks better on X68000 but the gameplay is vastly superior on Genesis despite a couple of missing levels and some graphical reductions. But don't take my word for it, watch it with your own eyes and see for yourself!
