About 8 months I finally bought a 32X. The only reason I bought it because I wanted complete my genesis. It came with 3 games. Doom, Motor Cross Champion, and Virtua Fighter. They all suck including Doom. Like James Said Doom is much better on SNES.
I got a 32X for $20 a couple of weeks ago, and I liked the 32X version of Doom. It was actually really good, even though the music is mediocre. It looks terrible on top of the Genesis and was annoying to get connected, but it’s not bad at all.
Even though I like the system pretty well, I do love this video. Even when I like the game (or in the case the system) being ripped on, I always love the AVGN videos.
At one time back in the 90′s I had a 32x for my sega. I don’t have it anymore. I really don’t remember what happen to it. I think I gave it away. I saw no big change in the game play. Nice video tho.
Yeah back then when you bought stuff like this you really didn’t notice what a waste it was! I Keep all my old Video games mainly for use for reviewing games on my website, but also for the Nostalgia..
Sega made a lot of mistakes with its consoles. They even screwed up the launch of the Saturn by making a surprise launch announcement at E3 in 1995 by telling everyone in attendance that the console was launching that day instead of in September as was planned. People were pissed at that. No games were available at launch time, no game magazine or other media would have the story out for a month at the very least , there were supply problems where sometimes a store wouldn’t get any consoles at all, and KB Toys wouldn’t even carry the system out of anger at the surprise.
i also had a friend who had both the Sega CD and 32X and he loved them. I was playing them at his house and I didn’t see anything special. Playing Night Trap was damn annoying, too. Either he was on some really good drugs or he was just lying to himself. Next time I see him, I’ll ask.
I agree that the 32X should have beet it’s own console. The only game on this thing I’m interested in playing is Star Wars Arcade, because I’m a die hard Star Wars fan.
Damn talk about add-on hell!!! All that shit is a jumbled clusterfuck of a mess!!!! And to think I actually wanted the 32x! What a piece of Garshit! Yup thats garbage and shit all rolled into one!!
I had a 32x and Sega CD as they died. you could get them for around 30 bucks or less. the Sega CD was run there were alot of good games for it. one of the ones that will always stick in my mind is Popful Mail. Take Zelda 2 and add funny voice acting… Great stuff. Or Lunar was good.. of course theres Sonic CD.
I’ve never had a Sega CD or 32X, but I do have a Sega Megadrive (which is a Genesis) with sonic 1, 2, 3 and Sonic & Knuckles. I still want all the other Sonic games and consoles. I like old skool gaming better than new games. :p
On Primal Rage..well I can kinda relate to how James complains about combos being up because in this Street Fighter wannabe game called “BlazBlue Continuum Shift” There are SO many combos that require pressing up. Like on Jin & Haku-men..Even on Litchi. It’s fucking impossible!
That’s the sole reason i gto DOOM and DOOM 2 for the Xbox 360 and i even have DOOM 3 ur right because i hate the computer version my mouse sucks for it.
Yeah I completely agree with you on everything in this video. A neighborhood friend had all of the above when all that stuff was still relevant and it was madness. Sweet composit bow by the way, and a perfect sendoff for the garbage it is.
It’s one of the biggest, dumbest attempts to milk every last dollar they could out of their customers I’ve ever seen in gaming. It’s even worse than the N64 gameboy cartridge controller attachment thing, the “transfer pack”, cause while that thing seemingly only worked on the pokemon stadium games (maybe I’m wrong), at least it added some element of fun and was cheap.
oh is he left handed? One thing that pisses ME off doesn’t have anything to do with this episode or avgn. I’m just confused of why does the cinemassacre’s account’s password have to be so tricky that you can’t remember it? I mean, James is always whining about shitty passwords in games etc. (no offens. I think it’s funny ). Well that’s all. Greetings from Fin again!
being born in 1999, i had nothing but things to look forward to, my first console was a gameboy advance sp then i got the gamecube which is frickin’ awesome then i got an xbox 360 and even later a wii and then a ps3 but for some reason i also have a ps1 and ps2 and oh yeah i also got my ds and my psp go but for some reason ive never even seen an original xbox let alone play it. P.S im not sure if you have a sega saturn but id like to see a review of it, or maybe the dreamcast or 3do.
got one of these beasts as a kid. man what a bitch to wire up and plug in.
well good thing im only 12 years old so i never played this piece of gar-bitch!
I remember getting the 32x with a couple of games for my 15th birthday, even back then it wasn’t good.
But I enjoyed Star Wars Arcade and playing Doom on a home console has cool at the time.
Again, 32x is mostly crap, but I’ll still play mine from time to time.

Good Thing I was Born In 1995 so I didnt need to play and see all that shit.
I’m quite blessed to have a plug board thing where the plugs go sideways
God….I’m glad I ignored all this crap….I was a Nintendo kid and was so glad to see Sega go down the toilet.
though it was fucking shit
i loved the ps1
every game i played i thought was fukin awesome
Will the Sega CD and 32X hook up to the old sytle Genesis or just the second model?

The 32X is a Tumor!

Nice shot! The Nerd is an archer too! There was one 32X game I wished he reviewed; Spider-Man Web of Fire.

can’t believe you set the 32X on fire. LOL!
