Venom/Spider-Man: Separation Anxiety is a follow up to Spider-Man and Venom: Maximum Carnage. Unlike the previous Spider-Man game, this is actually based on a different comic story. A little weird they still ran with the game knowing this. In all aspects it's not as great as the previous game. There's a few things it has over the original though. For starters, you can start the game as Venom. Also there's a password system. There's also an infinite lives code. Like Maximum Carnage, the main villain group you'll face a lot. They might've done that a little too much here. There's some good songs with not great sound effects. The game simply felt a bit rushed out. Almost like they lacked inspiration or simply tired of making Spider-Man games. They also made Spider-Man and The X-Men in Arcade's Revenge. Some of the enemies just doesn't work for an beat em up game either. I did like some of the assist heroes you'll get. Which might've been the best aspect of this game. If you played both games side by side it's no contest which one wins. Especially the first few levels in both games are somewhat similar. In all honestly, it's not a bad licensed beat em up game. It's somewhat better than Batman Forever the more famous console game. It's just nothing special that's fun for a little while. Even if you play co-op with an friend or family member. Don't expect to go through the entire game. I could even argue how The Incredible Hulk game on the same platforms is better.

Killer InstinctKiller Instinct is a fighting game developed by Rare and published by Midway and Nintendo. It was released as an arcade game in the fall of 1994 and, the following year, ported to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) and the Game Boy. The game's plot involves an all-powerful corporation organising a fighting tournament. The story was adapted in a limited comic book series published under the short-lived Acclaim Comics imprint.
Killer Instinct features several gameplay elements unique to fighting games of the time. Instead of fighting enemies in best-of-three rounds bouts, each player has two life bars. The player that depletes the other player's life bars first wins the match. The game also introduced "auto-doubles", a feature which allows players to press a certain sequence of buttons to make characters automatically perform combos on opponents. Also featured in the game are "combo breakers", special defensive moves that can interrupt combos.Action Fantasy Science fiction
