I love it, but for some reason prefer part two. I guess it's because it's more like the original, I don't know.

I remember I played splatterhouse in the arcade, but never on sega. I sure would like to find any game of this series

Splatterhouse 2 is in fact more like 1. Same kind of Friday the 13th kind of spook, trademark Namco-esqe music, and gameplay.

Splatterhouse 3 plays a bit faster, and you can walk on a XY 2-D plane. Closer to a beatem up, it also has Zelda-ish screens where you fight in a specified room until all the enemies are cleared. From there you may move to a new adjacent room of your choice to get to your goal. You also have a powerup feature where by collecting powerstocks, and hit the A button you can morph into a Phreaky version of yourself and do much more damage. It is all a welcome addition to the franchise.

Both SP 2 and 3 have a password save feature.

I own all 3 splatter house games (including the TG16 SP1 version), and they each have their purpose. If you find SP3, as I think it is kinda rare (correct me if I'm wrong), get it.

Problem with the series, is they weren't distributed well. Very pricey.

Hey Electroman which splatterhouse do you like better :?:

[danielscheil]

splatterhouse is here in germany very rare... all the games with Gore are here on the index ( a list with forbidden games ) Nobody cas sell this games that's ilegal but to have this games at home thats legal

-very strange :twisted:

I like both games ( 2 and 3 )

but the story in number 3 is very great it plays like a horrormovie ! "the boreworm infestes Jennifers Brain" i like that

Splatterhouse on the PC Engine is great too but the us release is cut ! there are no Pentagrams and not so much gore like in the japanese version

Hey Electroman which splatterhouse do you like better :?:

I'd pick Splatterhouse 3 mostly because it is:
1.) The most fair.
2.) Fighting engine is similar to a brawler rather than a platformer.
3.) Graphically its more impressive without any loss in quality in other areas.

BUT... for Splatterhouse purists, they may prefer the 2nd edition. Even some hold their allegiance towards the 1st version.

I'd say if you can help it, get them both but certainly look for #3 first.
