When i was a kid back in the 90's we used to visit this video game store and check out a bunch of Sega Genesis games. They used to let us try out the game first before a purchase. I remember one day they had a drawing for this game. I told my dad I was going to enter and he said something like, "No one ever wins those things." About a week later we had a message on our answering machine (90's remember) that my name had been draw - so I basically got a free X-Men game. I was so happy, this is still my favorite X-Men game for the Genesis.
Funny is, that I read the Same Story with the exactly Same words, a few days ago under another retro gaming Video 😂 another game of course. But I Cant remember if It Was from the Same guy.
I remember being obsessed with this game. Literally playing it 24/7 all the time as a kid. It's actually really hard and it requires a lot of focus. That egyptian level was my favorite.
I'm pretty much the only one who thought it was amazing that the game starts you off with an intro stage once you boot it up, with no opening or intro or anything. It felt like a movie, sans the opening credits, and it's cool.
@@krisfrederick5001 my copy gave a lot of trouble starting up. I remember blowing the cartridge like hell but once it started you know......were good😎👍
I would always pick Nightcrawler and pause the game as I was teleporting to see each phase. If you catch it just right.. the whole screen would turn pink! That was so cool 2 me lol
By far, this is the very best X-MEN video game I have ever played. I have Mutant Apocalypse for the SNES and I used to think that was the best X title out there...but not anymore. This one totally shreds M.A without contest, imho. Not to say Mutant Apocalypse isn't cool, but when compared to Clone Wars, I found it much too easy and even bland at times. Capcom did a nice job with it's presentation and all, but the game is definitely lacking punch. The graphics in Clone Wars are really great for a 16 bit Genesis game and the music just rocks. I love the strong sound effects here. The game is very challenging in all the right areas and there are nifty tricks to get through each map without too much struggle. It's not as frustrating as I thought it would be. I love the character animations. I mostly use Psylocke and Wolverine. For a game that's over 20 years old...it's still pretty bad ass and fun to play.
In the 90s I remember renting X-Men games with my dad and him and I both being exposed to some massive disappointments in doing so (here’s looking at you NES titles). But I can’t understate how blown away we both were when we finally got Clone Wars home to enjoy. Our patience and frustrations were paid off by this beauty. Holds up massively well, too.
I remember first playing this game and thinking it was broken since there was no intro, just went straight into the level with a random character. Also, it was a Blockbuster rental without an instruction guide of course :p. Eventually I beat it one time, only one.
Oh my I feel like a kid again looking at this. I'm 29 years old now in the year of 2015 & can't believe this game is 20 years old. I played the shit outta this on Sega Channel back in the day.
I loved this game! We were the first kids on our street to get a Sega Genesis and this was our favorite game by far. We got it for Christmas that year but I think my dad bought it when it came out and just hid it from us really well.
When I played this game as a kid, I pick each X-MEN to fit each level. After the tundra level, I'd pick Gambit n Cyclops for the Sentinel level, Beast n Nightcrawler for the Avalon level, Magneto and Psylocke for Apocalypse's Temple, and Wolverine the rest of the way. All n all, awesome game.
***** I'm not saying this game is bad nor that the music in this game is bad. I'm saying that there were many X-Men games that came out after this one.
I Remember this being one of the last sega genesis games before playstation 1 was released in a few months.this game was very well thought out and executed,probably a top 5 xmen game of all time.
This is the best X-Men game ever I had thi for Sega genesis and I played it all the time and even though my favorite two characters were nightcrawler and wolverine I played as cyclops, gambit, beast, psylocke and even magneto when he was unlocked. I love X-Men clone wars.
I remember this game. It started me off as a random character without any introduction or instructions. Totally crazy. But at least the level wasn't hard. I liked this game. For the time period it was pretty good.
I use to play this a lot in the 90s. Wish I could find a walkthrough on this game that came out in the 90s around this time. It was a baseball game for the genesis. The neighbors use to let me borrow a lot of their genesis games. Great playthrough....it brought back many memories.
I loved this game as a kid, incredible graphics and action. I use to play it alone, with my brother and my friends too. But it was so long and hard, I reached level 4 or 5 tops. These gameplay make look like a walk in the park, like all gameplays, but it was actually very hard. That was the only bad thing about it, it was extremely long and didn't have any password or code to go straight to some level.
Wow....SO many awesome memories luv, luv, LUVED this game!! No lie I watched this for almost a full 30 minutes without being able to watch the smile off of my face...:-D!! Plus you play it JUST the way I used to...being a life-long MASSive Nightcrawler fan the game almost felt like "The Adventures of NIGHTCRAWLER guest starring the X-Men" 'cause playing with the Fuzzy Elf and his power set were just TOO much FUN!! Thanks for the fond memories!!!
One of my favorite video games of all time. The colors, graphics, challenge, satisfaction, sound effects, and music (good lord that fucking soundtrack is amazing) were near perfection. If I had to choose a game that pushed the Genesis to it's max in every aspect, X-Men 2 would be my choice. No fat on this game whatsoever.
I remember all this stuff! Omg! I feel so old. I remember the first time I beat that boss and he turned into the clones, i was like "Wait, I'm not done?? Wth?" Even as a child lol. The level was so long. I also loved how the music changed on certain levels depending on who you picked. Awesome game.
Actually, the spiked platform on the left where it stops moving before moving to the right; you're supposed to land ontop of that spiked platform and then jump onto the vertical one.. I didn't even realise it was possible the way this guy did it
my absolute favorite X-Men game. perfect music, perfect gameplay. they got the mutant powers right, that had a female character. and then they mess up and give us the worst ending, lol
I remember playing this game before, but I never made it to the end. And you know I think Wolverine is one of the best X-Men mutants to use in the game because of his claws and the way he defeats his opponents.
Damn I miss the early 2000s when my uncle handed me down his Sega Genesis had this, Beavis and Butt-head, Shinobi, Ghouls and Ghost, Ahh Real Monsters, Skitchin and soooo many more cold games..... Also the music from the second level been stuck in my head after all these years lol
I remember playing this game while dad was beating mom in the other room. I heard her screams as dad yelled at her, throwing insults and expletives. The walls would rumble. I heard glass breaking. My mom saying sorry as dad would slap and punch her. I remember playing this game to keep me distracted since I didn’t know what to do.
That sounds depressing as hell, not good memories for this game for you though. My memories were far brighter for this one, a friend had a Genesis, wanted to rent something, so I chipped in, rented Mortal Kombat 2, and this game right here. We played more of this early on, but as the night got later MK2 was mostly played by me. But two player mode was grand with me and other friends taking turns at the game.

Michael Cameron Actually no. It was developed by Headgames Inc, which worked on Taz in Escape From Mars, Wacky Worlds Creativity Studio, and the Genesis version of Pink Goes to Hollywood
Loved this game, I always played as Beast, my favourite x-man. Shame after this and the SNES x-men game, there were very few appearances of him, except in a ps1 game I think?
Extremely hard and long and without passwords or anything to resume the game from some level. This gameplay make it look like a piece of cake, like all gameplays, but it was not easy at all.
The Sentinel Complex (while it's exploding) always scared me as a kid. Everything glows red, there's explosions all over the place, and the screen shakes from left to right making it hard to see what's ahead. And you have a time limit to deal with. If the timer reaches zero before you enter through the emergency exit, you're automatically dead. And playing this level with two players makes it worse. And the bosses of these stages I never saw in any other X-Men media, except the elevator stage boss, who I've seen in the ending of X-Men: Children Of The Atom.
i sucked so bad at this game as a kid. i never made it past that first aztec jungle level. also, that first boss was really spooky cause of the sound it made.

How many times did you hit reset to get your favorite character?
What a great opening
I would always pick Nightcrawler and pause the game as I was teleporting to see each phase. If you catch it just right.. the whole screen would turn pink! That was so cool 2 me lol
I did the same thing! So cool
That's funny I used to do the same thing lol
Yesssss!!! Did this all the time especially when power rangers was on I’d disconnect all the aux just to see power rangers then come back to the game
Most under rated comment thought I was the only one
ME TOO!!!
what a great game, really shows off what the genesis could do
man, I remember this game...the first boss scared me as a kid for some reason, I think it was the face and the sound it made as it attacked
I remember after that boss. . I never wanted to do the escape part so. . I just reset the game and played the first two levels again lol
i have to say too, I scare about the music and the sounds from bosses
By far, this is the very best X-MEN video game I have ever played. I have Mutant Apocalypse for the SNES and I used to think that was the best X title out there...but not anymore. This one totally shreds M.A without contest, imho.

in 20 years i have never finish
the intro level
Wow really?
yes, never
fabio cangi it's not that hard I've only beat the whole game like 2 or 3 times myself the whole game is hard but level one is easy
i havent pacience

13:51 is the music you keep remembering from the moment you play it.
it still sound up to date until now!

I loved this game! We were the first kids on our street to get a Sega Genesis and this was our favorite game by far. We got it for Christmas that year but I think my dad bought it when it came out and just hid it from us really well.
He makes this game look effortless. It took me while to beat this game and he makes it seem like its like playing pacman. Good job
Oh man the nostalgia
I could play this game forever!
This gave me so much grief and joy when i was a kid. Patterns. Memorize. Patterns.
When I played this game as a kid, I pick each X-MEN to fit each level. After the tundra level, I'd pick Gambit n Cyclops for the Sentinel level, Beast n Nightcrawler for the Avalon level, Magneto and Psylocke for Apocalypse's Temple, and Wolverine the rest of the way. All n all, awesome game.
Finishing this game was such an achievement. Classic Sega.
One of the best games ever made.
Man, this game is so good. My favorite genesis game.
I was always impressed by the music in this game. Sad to say that there hasn't been a decent X-men game since
X-Men vs. Street Fighter begs to differ.
*****
I'm not saying this game is bad nor that the music in this game is bad. I'm saying that there were many X-Men games that came out after this one.
***** That explains why it's so good. He also did the Soul Reaver piece that plays during the intro FMV in LoK: SR.
shinquickman the X-Men Legends games were pretty good
X-men origins: Wolverine is a good one, but it hasn't been an X-men game as epic as this one
I Remember this being one of the last sega genesis games before playstation 1 was released in a few months.this game was very well thought out and executed,probably a top 5 xmen game of all time.
One of my absolute favorite Genesis games. Could play this forever.

This is the best X-Men game ever I had thi for Sega genesis and I played it all the time and even though my favorite two characters were nightcrawler and wolverine I played as cyclops, gambit, beast, psylocke and even magneto when he was unlocked. I love X-Men clone wars.
This game's design and gameplay were phenomenal for its time. I still consider it one of the best 2d games.
Massive improvement on X-men 1.
Rooty Kazooty I never even gave this game a chance because of how disappointed I was with X-Men 1. I realize now I made a mistake!
michaeloffgrid u sure did bud,u sure did.
I loved how you could pose with every character in almost every direction. The attention to detail was great!
I remember this game. It started me off as a random character without any introduction or instructions. Totally crazy. But at least the level wasn't hard. I liked this game. For the time period it was pretty good.
I played this game since I was 5, no 25 and still wanna play this. My childhood was amazing.
Man that second level design is amazing.

Awww man this was a great game back in the day
When wolverines health is down to one or 2 health points he regenerates to three.
I remember staying up all night playing this game the good times where did they go
It brought good memories from childhood 😊
Excellent play
@45:55 one minute of cyclops ducking with intense music lol
Gosh this game is so great. I especially love how twisted and creepy the last 10 levels get.
One of the best X-Men games for the old systems
This game was directed by Michael Bay.
Shin Shun lol
That would explain why most of the flesh and blood enemies explode a hundred times upon death.
Troppi ricordi 😭😭😭
Thank you for this video!
Beautifull game and beautifull childhood Memories with my Brothers ❤️
i remember the opening stage one of the later levels' changed themes depending what character you were
Greatest game for me as a kid. Loved every damn bit of it, escaping the lab was always so epic to me
I love playing this when I was young and I started watching X-Men.
*i've played this game several times..and i finished it ..Good memories of mega drive's time*
I remember this game, the X-Men show: Clone Wars. Unfortunately I couldn't finish it. But I really love the music in this game.
One of the best Genesis games. Sick soundtrack.
Man, you are great! Nice Cyclops play!
Awesome gameplay!
my absolute favorite X-Men game. perfect music, perfect gameplay. they got the mutant powers right, that had a female character.
and then they mess up and give us the worst ending, lol
this game gave me nightmares as a kid. it was scary as hell

I just got this game for chrismas yesterday
op fanman for Christmas?but sega is sooooo old dude

Damn that elevator music is so boss!
This game was good overall and I loved the X-Men character models and tight controls, but man, some of these levels are so bland and rage-inducing.
Yeah I like the graphics, animation, and music, but some of the levels drag on for too long and look kind of samey and boring to play.
gfunkmoney06 luckily I had school friends and we neat the game easily together
As much as i love this game, even i have to admit some of the levels are dull and long
2:05 Headgames? As in "Extreme Paintball" Headgames?
Quite possibly the very best home console X-Men game ever made.
This is what you call a classic 2d game. 😘
one of the best games of all time.

Do u know the theme when Gambit is escaping
It uses the same sound effects in some area's

Os cenários de fundo e a trilha sonora deste jogo são muito boas. Lembro que jogava direto no cartucho, alugava numa locadora perto de casa.
I remember beating this game a few days ago.Such a great hidden gem.
This game is so maddeningly difficult that it took me years to get to what I now see is not even *half of it.*

If you turn on V-sync in your emulator Cyclops' beam doesn't look so broken.
it would be a very good idea of the directors of the new movie of xmen if they put the alien queen in one ofthe movies
love this game
Until now I always though that 19:42 was the end of the game. I don't even remember losing in later levels, just that guy being the final boss.
This game and the first one were pretty damn fun. Never could beat Ahab's Future World on the Genesis tho...
Me the savage land, had to cheat with unlimited lives lol
i sucked so bad at this game as a kid. i never made it past that first aztec jungle level.
also, that first boss was really spooky cause of the sound it made.
