Always going to have a soft-spot for the MS version, as for the 8 Bit Micro versions? as technically as good as the CPC+Speccy versions are, without the music, for me, a lot is lost on Rastan, so for that reason alone, i'm giving it to C64 version here.

Not seen the MSX 2 version before, not bad, music is a touch 'tinkly' though.

Cool.  The MSX2 version is nice indeed!

The SMS version is really good, and the GG version probably is too. The DOS and Apple II versions surprised me with the level of detail. I'd even say the Apple II looks best, if it wasn't for the glitchiness... like lots of tearing, not
 only horizontally but vertically. Maybe that's an emulation issue?

Tried to get further into the coin-op version this afternoon (MAME) but F-ME! who the hell thought those swarms of bats would be a 'great' idea, espically when your climbing or swinging and thus cannot 'slash' up or below you? not happy chappy at mo.

And checkpoints need looking at and then some......

Been spolit by modern gaming lol.
