This is a question Not-stalgia

Willenium tugs our sleeve and says: Tell us why the past was a bit shit. You may wish to use witty anecdotes reflecting your own personal experience.

Barbarian (and it's sequel), solely for Maria Whittaker.
Either that, or I really get off on him off of Gladiators and/or vanquished monsters.

There was a sequel to Barbarian?

I liked it


There was one beastie you could kill with one swipe of the sword if you timed it right, and it would fall into two bits. Maaaaaagic.

I used to like Barbarian (and not just for Maria Whittaker)
I'm gutted that I never knew about a sequel.

The sequel was a bit shit
It had you walking through a spilt-screen maze, hitting improbable creatures and trying to jump over pools of acid in a pixel-perfect fashion.

Inevitably you'd come across some monster that was nearly impossible to hit and drained your life very quickly and then you would die. Or just get stuck trying to jump over the fucking acid pools.

Barbarian 1 was much better.

EDIT: Although judging by that screenshot, the enemy in Barbarian II was Richard O'Brien, and I suppose that goes in its favour.
