Asterix and the Great Rescue (Genesis) (gamerip) (1993)

An incredible soundtrack for an incredibly funny and well designed videogame. I remember considering the artwork of some levels kind of weird when I played this as a kid in my Mega Drive (Genesis for those in the US) but that's another of the things why I've liked so much these comic franchise ever since I read it for the first time: the tremendously well-made spinoffs (accounting an exception maybe by the scripts of the big screen movies, resulting a bit boring or childish... but that's something not relevant here, anyway)
 
YET ANOTHER bad game with a great soundtrack. (Why does this keep happening?!) The title screen is a jam, levels 2, 4, & 5 are all spectacular, and overall, it's a good soundtrack to listen to while you put up with all of the game's BS.
 
I remember first getting this game and being blown away by the title screen music... and then getting disappointed immediately with what was a lackluster boring game.
