The original-ish Golden Axe. The screenshots bring back arcade / school lunchtime memories.

Free is good. Thanks OP.

 

[LeRoy]

Use to love this game. Too bad they screwed up the remake.

 

[Mike UFC]

Thanks OP, free is always good! These aren't transferrable to Steam, however. But GG is a pretty good service.

 

[Gothic Walrus]

Does this require a client?

If so...I'll pass. The 360 Genesis compilation version is good enough for me.

 

[loomis1975]

No client.

 

[loveangel]

thanks op,

 

[Crazyhowie]

I'll take it! Thank you OP .

Here's a direct link to the game: http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-GA/golden-axe

It looks like it's the MegaDrive/Genesis version, which was fun.

Edit: I snagged a copy, so thanks so much for sharing this, OP! I already own the Genesis version, but I'm too lazy to go into the garage and dig it out, heh. Also, OP, where did you get these codes? Are there other discount codes to come?

 

[Wargamer]

Downloaded, thanks op

 

[DaBargainHunta]

One of my all-time favorites! Thanks, OP.

 

[NEP]

Isn't that it or is the XBL one also a port of the Genesis version?

 

[M-PG71C]

Although I already own this on both the Genesis and the PS3 compilation, I'm a sucker for free. Thanks OP!

 

[cheapo72]

Thanks OP!

 

[Darknuke]

I would bother downloading this if I didn't still own the Sega Collection for 360. Free is always a great deal tho =D.

 

[vikingvessel]

Lovely. Thanks, OP!

The XBL one is a port of the arcade version (my personal favorite version). I should note that this version of Golden Axe (MD/Genesis) runs in a small, neat client that gives you an incredible amount of display customization as well as SAVE STATES! That's right, you can save your game as-is at any moment and load it up again. Pretty neat! I found this to be a really cool surprise.

[Maniac Mansion]

This makes me wish I had never sold my near mint condition Sega Genesis for $10 last year.
