How a Justice League Genesis Game Led to Diablo - An Interview With David Brevik

Diablo and Justice League Task Force for Sega Genesis / Mega Drive might not be two games you readily associate with one another - but they’re actually very linked. Just in time for the Justice League Snyder Cut, Diablo creator David Brevik walks us through how a surprise meeting at Chicago CES 1994 enabled him to go from working on a Justice League fighting game and other titles like Aero the Acro-Bat, The Pirates of Dark Water and NFL Quarterback Club to creating the game he dreamed about making since high school.

This video is amazing, thank you for the history on this game which doesn't get nearly the kind of love it deserves.

[@cbake76]

And thank you for the awesome comment. Glad you liked it!

[@alwaysnerdyretros]

Incredible video Chris!!! Informative and well edited. I’m taking notes lol. I totally missed out on this game too and I really want to play it now. It’s fascinating hearing behind the scenes for these older games

[@cbake76]

Huge compliment coming from you-thanks! JLTF is pretty basic as fighting games go, but it does represent the characters pretty well and is fun enough to play through a time or two.

@@cbake76 I got the Spider-Man PC ROM CD game and I just want to let you know it works.

[@pinkstinger]

And I just yesterday watched a gameplay of the first Injustice game, and got myself wondering "why does Superman sweep with a punch?", and now I know the answer.

[@cbake76]

Ha... Glad to be of service! 😀
