I just beat it today, the Magneto fight is still hard. That's where me and my younger brother would lose most lives back in the day and then couldn't beat all the clones at the end. Never made it past the Wolverine clone. I didn't know back then I was that close. Just came to view the video to see how they did the long play. Being cheap with Magneto and shooting from range is the only way I could do it too lol.
It wasn't an easy one for sure, my cousin and I bought it when it came out. Still a great game though, the first half has such great replay value alone.
My absolute favorite game. Should go back and play it. Turns out where I was dying, I was only a level away from finishing the game when I was like 8. Last I played it, unfortunately.
I remember I used to ALWAYS use Cyclops or Gambit on the second part of the sentinel level just so I could stay back and fight from a distance when fighting the boss. That whole level and it's self-destruct sequence is still one of my favorite memories in gaming.
Absolutely. I remember playing it with my brother and his friend. We lost a couple of times until we figure the correct escape route. The gamplays make it look easy, but back in the day when we played it without any guidance at all, it was very hard.
This was the best! After beating it, i would play over and over, i loved how they used all kinds of different characters you rarely see. The best X-Men game ever.
My cousin and I played this on Sega Channel whenever we could. I remember the pre-title gameplay gave you different characters, seemingly at random. Very cool desgin.
X-Men 2. It's such a surprisingly fun game, even though I was never able to beat it in my childhood (makes me wonder if I could beat it now if I tried). Much more expansive than the first X-Men game; that's for certain. I also liked the subtle music touches with each character. You can hear it clearly in the intro stage (Cyclops), the first area of the third stage (Gambit), and obviously the final battles. The only thing is that it's such an oddly long game for its genre, or at least feels lengthy with little to no continues. This would have been the kind of game that at least a password feature could have been in place, but I digress. It's still a fun playthough, all that being said.
Did you know in the first level, the snow level, the music changes depending on what character is brought forth. If there's two players the music from each character would be fused together for a perfect melody
Me neither. Gameplays on TH-cam make it look like a piece of cake, but it was actually very hard. Not only that but it pretty long and didn't have any passwords or cordes or something to resume the game from certain level.
10:45 in this era i remember the escape levels with limited time and everything crumbling and exploding, with awesome music that keeps the atmosphere on edge. was one of the best ideas on adventure games. Used on this game, and Super Metroid just to mention some. I cant believe this idea wasnt recycled on modern games. I loved that kind of escape levels. I would buy a game based entirely on escape levels only.
You should play Ori and the Blind Forest and its sequel. Those games have a great story and the big boss fight set pieces are essentially all escape levels that you are pining for.
This game had a cheat code for invulnerability and I think all characters unlocked. The first stage literally happens when you start the game and you get a random character. Nightcrawler was the easiest to make it through with. Really tough game but a lot of fun.
Magneto sucks. I used him at the end to fight the Queen and I got my ass handed to me. His powers are weak in this game. Only The magnetic orb that you can use for his mutant power is useful but it's slow. Also he doesn't fly, he just hovers and he has no melee attacks like the other X-men just shoots out weak energy blasts. My top pick on the X-men that I always chose for this game were NightCrawler, Cyclops, Wolverine and my all time favorite, Gambit.
I remember watching my brother playing this a lot, he first played demo at a mall, then he purchased the game. It was 1997. Oh, the electronic-ish sounds at the intermissions. That's how 90s view the future world.
I remember playing the Master Mold level over and over. It took me forever to remember which game it was that the particular level was in. For some reason I thought it was the X-Men VS Spider-Man game.
What's great about this vid is that I made the same choices when I was a kid at 11-12 for each level. I made it a point to keep each and every X-MEN alive until the end because I didn't know if I needed them or not. For the Jungle though I used Wolverine. It kicked my ass but his healing ability I would wait for it to kick it and I would wait for sure.
Pretty cool game, and as hard as i remember it, even for being a video that is out of the TAS standards of absurdly perfect gameplay, you are pretty good at this mate.
Use to love this game back in the day. Kind of disappointing to see the player get real sloppy near the end, trying to use Nightcrawler to climb walls and spam teleport to avoid enemies, only to take an absolute beating the whole time. My go-to's were always Psylocke, Wolverine and Magneto.
De chico llegaba bastante lejos. Hasta el nivel después de la selva. Donde sube el agua verde. Actualmente lo estoy jugando en mi PSP que permite guardar en cualquier momento y eso es una ventaja importante. Ya estoy luchando contra el nido!!!
I still have this game. It's great, but i think that after the Apocalypse boss battle, the game feels a little off and repetitive. From that point onwards (basically all the phalanx stages) there's almost nothing new, even the final boss dissapointed me. And i'm a Sega fanboy
Honestly they are both great games but I prefer the better graphics and music plus I like the street fighter move commands to mutant apocalypse. The two player mode in clone wars was completely unplayable.
It’s the 90’s You pop in a new game cartridge. You’re not sure where your parents got it, and you have no idea what X-men are. The game starts. Immediately. No tutorial, no character select, no menu screen. Just play. You are assaulted by a smorgasbord of techno beats and loud sounds. You decide to cheese most of the levels with Nightcrawler. It’s a damn good time.
The developers managed to keep the essence of X-Men both in graphics and music. This game aged like wine! 18:31 name of this boss? btw, whenever you hit it is as if he is farting lol 20:55 badass power stance
I started to say I did better than him, because I destroyed every ninja and not. But he master moving through the stage without getting touched. True “___” comes without effort. Forgot the words

Here it is. Still my favorite X Men game. I will never forget that first time playing with that instant start. Blew my mind 🤕
That emoji you used LOL
Bones Jackson kick ass profile pic.
I thought my cartridge had some problem so then i read the instruction manual. It was also very cool that you had to beat magneto to play with him
@@NewDawnFadesX and i know what game it comes from 😁
@@henrlima87 Yep. Mutant League Football. 😎
I never beat this game as a kid. After watching this video, the author reassured me that I still probably can’t
The same for me, an awesome game boy way to difficult and stressful
🇧🇷 Jogo difícil dos infernos!

Hahaha same
It's interesting how a studio that is basically lowrung when compared to other studios, ended up developing one of the absolute best games on Genesis.
They originally planned on making a sequel too called X=Women.
That opening that literally drops U in the middle of a snowstorm is the best part of this game. One of the best openings to a video game EVER.
Talk about a “Cold” open.
@@bigdummy6286 Yes, exactly.
My absolute favorite game. Should go back and play it. Turns out where I was dying, I was only a level away from finishing the game when I was like 8. Last I played it, unfortunately.

Excellent choice for long range.
@@SeriesTube01 am I the only one thats always wondered how high that bosses voice could go?
Still the best X-Men game. The character sprites were HUGE.
Best X-MEN game of all time
@Jonathan Williams Never got to play that one, but imagine playing on that 6-player cabinet? That would be awesome
@SuperCrazyPsycho731cmon now I love the classics but the X men Legends series was too good
The arcade would be the best if you could use ur powers whenever you wanted without losing life
This and legends are pretty much tied for me legends is just such a long game
Graphics in this game are stupendous
Maaaaaan… these were the days 😢
Wordless. A game with a story. A game with actions from start to finish. Congratulations.
this game feels a lot better than many movies!
The 90s cartoon show too
This was the best! After beating it, i would play over and over, i loved how they used all kinds of different characters you rarely see. The best X-Men game ever.
One of my favourite game as a kid. Great game play, amazing music, pure nostalgia
My cousin and I played this on Sega Channel whenever we could.

It’s over, Magneto. I have the high ground!
Another happy landing.
Did you know in the first level, the snow level, the music changes depending on what character is brought forth. If there's two players the music from each character would be fused together for a perfect melody
Wow, that is awesome!
@@arkanjoteixeira Gambits theme was my favorite. And it fused well with psylock
There are a few more levels throughout the game that do this with the music.
Dude I had no idea! Thanks for the info!
the best x-men game ever I played when I was a child
Best X-Men game!
Except mutant apocalypse is better!
@@Jmillz181 slow action? 1 player? No sir......
@@Jmillz181 Mutant Apocalypse isn't even in the same league as Clone Wars.
After 15 years of not playing this game, I played today. It’s the best looking game on genesis and best X-men game period!
MY CHILDHOOD!!!! man i never could beat level 3 though.
tiduswordplayer does this game have unlimited continues? I’m just asking.
Not only one
Me neither. Gameplays on TH-cam make it look like a piece of cake, but it was actually very hard. Not only that but it pretty long and didn't have any passwords or cordes or something to resume the game from certain level.
One of the best intros in video game history!
Getting Magneto blew my mind in this game.
Fun fact: The soundtrack is done by Kurt Harland, who would go onto create the soundtrack for the Soul Reaver games
I was shocked when I found that out like a year ago. I grew up loving Information Society and Legacy of Kain, so was surprised it slipped past me!
Great game. I was able to beat it just once without cheats. This game kicked my ass all the time.
that first boss used to scare the living shit out of me
😂😂😂Look like Zordon from Mighty Morphin

Great thing about this one is Cyclops' eye beams fire across the entire screen...not like those short bolts in the first Sega game.
This game had a cheat code for invulnerability and I think all characters unlocked. The first stage literally happens when you start the game and you get a random character. Nightcrawler was the easiest to make it through with. Really tough game but a lot of fun.
Bro when that high pitch tone comes on then the beat drops!? 🎧🎼
best x-men game! legendary!
Joguei d mais esse jogo. MARAVILHA na época..
These levels are Soo much better than the first X game!!!
The only game I know without a opening menu
I know right, I’m here because thought my copy was glitched but this opened exactly same way. No start up menu.
acctually if you stand still at the very beginning the opening will appear.
Atari 2600 games didn't have openings
MAH BOY NIGHTCRAWLER, MY SON!!
with the sentinel core destroyed, its amazing those elevators still work
I spent so much time trying to beat this game as a kid and it could’ve been done in a little over an hour
I loved how Nightcrawler runs in this game. I used to run around like that all the time when i was a kid 😂
I didn't have as much fun playing with Magneto as I though I would.
Magneto sucks. I used him at the end to fight the Queen and I got my ass handed to me. His powers are weak in this game. Only The magnetic orb that you can use for his mutant power is useful but it's slow.

Meh, dat slow pimp walk and his super high jump were enough for me, lol.
*already i managed to even finish the game using him*
he's the most useful in the fight against apocalypse. just float in place and shoot everything
I loved this game as a kid, me & my friends play it a lot, but never could beat it.
this title's aged incredibly well.
I remember watching my brother playing this a lot, he first played demo at a mall, then he purchased the game. It was 1997. Oh, the electronic-ish sounds at the intermissions. That's how 90s view the future world.
I remember the howling sentinel head being unsettling to my child brain and in 2019 it still is.
*it's been long time since i played this game..i really loved to do that,and i finished that several times*
I remember playing the Master Mold level over and over. It took me forever to remember which game it was that the particular level was in. For some reason I thought it was the X-Men VS Spider-Man game.
1995...they still develope a game for genesis even when ps1 and saturn is already there
The soundtracks in this were such bangers
I think it's funny how sparingly the player uses Scott's blasts.
This game... absolutely stellar
What's great about this vid is that I made the same choices when I was a kid at 11-12 for each level. I made it a point to keep each and every X-MEN alive until the end because I didn't know if I needed them or not. For the Jungle though I used Wolverine. It kicked my ass but his healing ability I would wait for it to kick it and I would wait for sure.
This game unlocked the biggest core memory for me!
Amazing xmen game. Blew my mind I could play as magneto lol
Pretty cool game, and as hard as i remember it, even for being a video that is out of the TAS standards of absurdly perfect gameplay, you are pretty good at this mate.
I remember being 4 and being stuck on the first stage …. I’m 30 and still stuck on the first stage 😅.
This game is better than the movie
Great game i enjoyed very much it would have been interesting to see it in a movie x-men against their clones
One of my favorite Sega games!
Lembro de ter comprado essa fita por engano, foi uma ótima surpresa . É um dos jogos mais difíceis que ja zerei . Jogaço!
Was I the only one who gave beast some love in this game?
Music and sound effects kick ass 😀😀
By the time you enter the game, you're greeted into the Action!
Magneto being so marvelous memeroies flooding in
Use to love this game back in the day. Kind of disappointing to see the player get real sloppy near the end, trying to use Nightcrawler to climb walls and spam teleport to avoid enemies, only to take an absolute beating the whole time. My go-to's were always Psylocke, Wolverine and Magneto.
Cyclops, Gambit and Nightcrawler here.
Thank you dude 🎉
Fun fact: If you use Beast's A-Button attack to smash the floors, he will leave craters in them.
De chico llegaba bastante lejos. Hasta el nivel después de la selva. Donde sube el agua verde. Actualmente lo estoy jugando en mi PSP que permite guardar en cualquier momento y eso es una ventaja importante. Ya estoy luchando contra el nido!!!
Yo también llegaba hasta ese nivel en el SEGA jaja
I still have this game. It's great, but i think that after the Apocalypse boss battle, the game feels a little off and repetitive. From that point onwards (basically all the phalanx stages) there's almost nothing new, even the final boss dissapointed me. And i'm a Sega fanboy
Agreed
This very well done game!!!
Better than the first
Best game best memory best BGM
This reminds me of both Chakin The Forever Man and Comix Zone.
This game here still go hard. This was when games had so much soul to them. Sadly Magneto was garbage on this game...
Except when facing Apocalypse
@@okamijubei Yea cause of his hovering ability. I mainly used either Wolverine or Beast to take him out.
This game reassured my child mind I wasnt crazy when I thought the first sega genesis xmen game was awful.
This and mutant apocalypse are amazing but I do prefer the SNES one.
Critical Pilot I prefer Genesis one
Honestly they are both great games but I prefer the better graphics and music plus I like the street fighter move commands to mutant apocalypse. The two player mode in clone wars was completely unplayable.

You are assaulted by a smorgasbord of techno beats and loud sounds. You decide to cheese most of the levels with Nightcrawler. It’s a damn good time.
Great game first time checking this out since I was a kid.
Losing the power meter from the first game was a HUGE improvement. Nobody wants to play a x men game where you can only use their powers like twice.
Love this game
GREAT MEGA DRIVE LONGPLAY - TO X-MEN II: CLONE WARS 1995 SEGA GENESIS GAME !!!!
The hype for X-Men ‘97 has me wanting to go back to this game.
Young people who think souls like games are difficult should try playing Mega Drive games like this one, Battletoads, Contra, Golden Axe, etc.
Great game.
The furthest I’ve ever been in this game was the phalanx ship.
The Sentinel heads used to horrify me growing up. I can still see why
Along with sonic3, this is the greatest sega game ever
This one and Adv. of Batman (Sega) are awesome
Sonic 2
Sonic 3
X-men 2
Spiderman vs Kingpin
Streets of Rage
Streets of Rage 2
Strider
Gunstar Heroes
Quackshot
Aladdin

20:55 badass power stance
1:01:09 The Brood Queen and Her Claws
tavanijorge that scene was freaky, what with the claws moving in their own so quickly. 😬
Ah hell yes!!!
Mannnn I never knew where to go as a kid
I assume those ninjas are the Hand
Red Hand
I remember renting this game and I didnt even have the chance to see the Sega logo 🤣
I loved this but could never beat it lol so I’m gonna watch what happens after the 3rd level lol
I just downloaded this on my 3DS. time to finish it once and for all. I am almost at the end fighting the clones then im out of lives.
I started to say I did better than him, because I destroyed every ninja and not. But he master moving through the stage without getting touched. True “___” comes without effort. Forgot the words
The player annoyed me because he wasn't playing how I'd play. Terrific game though.
This game has some Chakan sound effects. kkkkk
Never beat this as a kid , never even got past the 2nd level lmao
I always referee to Cyclops as “Captain Weeny“ . I didn’t even dislike him as a character lol
Out of curiosity. How come you havent used your powers at the beginning. The whole point of xmen are their powers. Nothing but crash bandicoot
How many times I restarted the game to get the right player for the first level.....
Iykyk 😅
