All the 40 somethings in here: "Altered Beast!".
Everyone else: "Uh, what?"
As a non 40 something can confirm
I'm a simple man. I see Altered Beast, I upvote.

It's funny to see which things haven't transferred over through cultural osmosis through the years. I would have assumed most people here would still recognize this. Clearly I'm an out of touch relic!
What are you talking about? Every comment I see here is about altered beast.....
Arise from your grave.
POWER...up
Welcome to your doom!
That’s exactly what I thought of. Great on Arcade
So nostalgic that you can hear it =)
Wise fwom yo gwave.
*gigles*
And rescue my daughter! I didn't resurrect you so that you could just lounge around. You've got a job to do!
"Nah." walks left instead of right
I, for the past several years, have seriously been saying this to my imaginary audience every morning when I wake up and engage the energy necessary to get to the kitchen and make a coffee. I had a girlfriend in 2019 that would get a kick out of it.
I thought you were going to say you said this to the dishes you left soaking, right before you do the dishes.
I really like how the boss at the end rips it's own head off and throws it at you as a weapon.
I wonder if thats where Aqua Teen Hunger Force got inspiration from.
"BORED!!!! BORED!!!! RIP OWN HEAD OFF!!! BLAARRGGHHH!!!!!"

Wize fwom yow gwave.
WELCUM TO YOUR DOOMM'AH!
If I had a nickel for every quarter I lost playing this in the arcade...
Thats called a tax refund.......I think.......wait.......
I never saw an arcade cabinet for Altered Beast and only played it in Genesis where it was kind of a shit game compared to Golden Axe.
Those bastard gnomes!
that flying kick is hilarious
Man I gotta go back and play Golden Axe again.
Don't sleep on "Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder", while not available for Genesis, definitely the best version there is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6inP3NQPXY
And if you're ok with some "jankiness", there are several fan made versions worth your time for OpenBOR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUybVkHLRMo
The consensus seems to be that people only played it because it came bundled with the console
Wow, I completely forgot about that game.
Altered Beast-Mode
it's insane how recognizable that beast is
I don't get it
Details of the game are here
Was a good 2 player monster beat-em-up.
Old game called "Altered Beast". You could transform into a few different beasts. Classic side-scrolling game.
BIG AND BUFF!!!!!!
God, I loved that game. I have spent so many fucking quarters in pizza parlors on that shit.
lol the beasts derp eyes are great
You made me look, now I laugh and agree. Thanks!
This would be an awesome plot for an Alterered Beast sequel (and a satisfying thought to keep while working out)
It would be awesome for those who played the original game and those who have no idea what it is!
Bro shinesparked without the booster, what a madlad
Not even a blue suit.
FÜCKING incredible I know, bro even sequence broke the kraid battle, what a legend

Folks getting tossed around like ragdolls is always funny.
FYI if you have Nintendo switch online subscription you can still play altered beast, the Sega classic
