Replay – Altered Beast
What better way to ring in the new year than a Replay of a Genesis classic? Sega boasted that their 16-bit system could capture the sheer arcade might of this mythological side-scrolling brawler. This short but tough game allowed players to transform into werewolves and lizardmen, and it's still cool as hell. Can we beat it in one sitting?
Join Dan Ryckert and I at the controls with Andrew Reiner adding in some colorful commentary on the memorable cartridge. This video contains interesting insight, close calls, a miraculous realization, and a weird joke involving Robert Carlyle and Patrick Stewart.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
