    I bought Gate of Thunder on the Wii a long time ago, but never seem to get past the first stage even, kind of gave up on it. Got Lords of Thunder today, it is far easier to survive for a while it seems, maybe because the weapons are more powerful? Specially when I bought the “3 power bar” upgrade in the shop at the start.

    Oh my…….see, I tend to learn toward GOT. But, I think most people I know would say LOT. Honestly it’s tough to choose (of course, GOT comes with three other games, hee hee). 🙂

    @glovestrong48: I just uploaded it. The first half is the Mega CD version, the second half of the video is the Duo version. They look nearly identical.

    @glovestrong48: Actually, believe it or not the graphics were almost identical. I’ll upload a video in a bit to prove it if I have time. You would think with the Sega CD’s 64 colors it would look a lot worse, but it uses ALL of those colors.

    Heh, admittedly so, the Sega CD really didn’t have too much to justify the pruchase. Just as well, you are correct, I have not played Lords on a Sega CD, my info comes from a few websites that claim the differences(all stylistic really) and video comparison between the Turbo and CD versions.
    I would say there’s no really big differences to them other than graphics and sound, so I’ll agree 🙂
