Exclamation Unknown conversions?...

I've just been downloading some titles, and came up with these:

These, that that look almost exactly as Amiga ones,
may be unknown because of there "slightly" different names...

AMIGA .....................SEGA.................................
----------------------------------------------------------------
Another World (1991) ===== Out Of This World (1994)
Chaos Engine (1993) ====== Soldiers Of Fortune (1993)
Killing Game Show (1990) = Fatal Rewind (1991)
Leander (1991) =========== Legend Of Galahad (1992)
Mega-Lo-Mania (1991) ===== Tyrants: Fight Through Time (1992)
Sink Or Swim (1993) ====== S.S. Lucifer: Man Overboard! (1994)
Storm Swiv (1991) ======== Mega Swiv (1994)
Turrican 3 (1993) ======== Mega Turrican (1994)
................................................................
----------------------------------------------------------------





Anyone else knows of more?...



PS: Long live Galahad!

EDIT: Why spaces don't do spaces?

Mega Turrican is NOT exactly the same as Turrican 3. Some resemblances are there but lots of levels are different. Turrican 3 is sort of a cut-down version of Mega Turrican.

I also thing mega Swiv is not just like Swiv, buut more akin to Firepower 2000 (a.k.a. Super SWIV on the SNES), but I'm not sure of this.

@Stefan Lindberg: Thanks ... Turrican chaos continues...

@JudasEZT: Thanks

@Akira: Thanks... for the chaos in my mind ...

Alrighty, thank you all for the info, and let's pretend that every conversion is different - in some aspect (more or less) - from the original, so those games can go on the list



So: Storm Swiv (AMIGA) = Mega Swiv (MEGA DRIVE) = Super Swiv (SNES) = Firepower 2000 (SNES) ... great ...



PS: Now i just HAVE to modify the list, hope you like it...
