Product Description

Hey Dudes, Your Babes Are Missing! Back in the distant past (way back-like when "rock and roll" was just rock and fast food was dinner you couldn't catch), lived two cave dudes named Joe and Mac. Whether it was dinosaur demolition or pterodactyl hang-glidin', life for the boys was pretty cool. Cool, that is, until a bogus bunch of neanderthal nerds crashed their village and scared off all the cave-babies. Now the cave-babies are out there-somewhere, lost and reeeeally lonely - so what are you waitin' for? It's up to Joe and Mac to get 'em back.

Joe & Mac maybe the most awsome Super Nintendo game Ever!! I like all the weapons you can get like Bones, Boomerangs, Fire, & Stones. Stones are the strongest weapons. It had a great adventure in it. I mean you fight T-rexes, Teredactles, Anklosaurues, Plants, & a little red & blue devil you kill at the end. Yep it sounds like a dinosaur adventure to me. Now the light and picture on this game was so much better than Nintendo & Sega!!!

This game is actually a little challenging...I've found that the game has to be played almost flawlessly so that you have as many lives as possible when you reach the final boss to work with.

First, the concept for Joe and Mac is brilliant. Killing dinosaurs to save cave babes with green hair? What part of that isn't awesome? You get to throw stone wheels or bone fragments (and when you get far enough, even the mystical FIRE--ooh) at bad guys, you fight sea monsters and pterodactyls and you do all of this against a pre-civilization background. This game mostly works in the old school mario left to right screen format. However, every couple levels or so, you come across something new (a water level, a level where a pterodactyl sweats mightily to haul your butt to the top of the trees while you fight beehives so that you can fight an even bigger, evil pterodactyl) which help keep things fresh so it doesn't turn into Castlevania. Also, this game is actually pretty long and even with continues, it's tough to get through the end bosses on the number of lives you have. I distinctly remember losing my last life on the totally trippy pink brain level (I know, crazy)and experiencing a level of frustration that most video games simply can't elicit from me. However, just a few days after chucking the controller at the tv, I was trying again. And I love, love, love the sounds in the game. The music is cheerful and has lots of caveman-type drums and there's something really wacky and somehow perfect about the myriad grunts and screeches the cavemen and monsters make as you play.
