    You know, I've never actually owned a single version of Frogger and I consider myself highly old-schopol. My word, what's wrong with me?!

    Well at least now I know the Genesis version is the one to grab.

    This always perplexed me about Frogger, the game's star. He's a frog and yet he cannot swim. How can a freaking frog not know how to swim?! That's like having a brain and not knowing how to use it.

    Um... he's cursed! That's it! And the object of the game is to free him from this terrible burden!

    Or maybe the water is polluted due to all the highway traffic, and the actual goal of the game is to defeat the evil polluters once and for all!

    Or not.

    I'd pick the Genesis version over the SNES game ANY TIME. Have you played the SNES game? The gameplay is ok but IT HAS NO MUSIC. Seriously, how much effort could it have taken to include fricking music? This game must use the smallest memory chip ever made for the SNES.

    1986,Christmas, I was 5 years old, and while some of you probably opened an NES that year I opened an Atari 2600 Jr. and 6 games. And I was happy... and one of those games was Frogger. Me and my sister played the hell outta that.

    Fast Forward.
    1995, Spring, I was at a Holiday Inn hotel. Down between the pool and the excercise room was 3 arcade machines. A Darts game (ugh) (fun to spin the trackball tho!), Samurai Showdown, and a cocktail version of frogger! Needless to say aside from the many quarters sunk into Samurai Showdown I had to try Fogger too, for old time's sake.
    And I hated it. The gameplay was the same but everything was... off... the colors... like an acid trip on some 4 color monitor of the 80's. The controls... stickier... he didn't jump quite the same... and the oriention is so long now...

    I am spoiled on the 2600 version, to me THAT version is better than the any other!

    and Yes the genesis version is a damn near perfect arcade port.
    by the way anybody else remember the quote "Have you heard of Arcade Games like Frogger? Then You've heard of Sega!" on the box for the Sega Master System (at least mine had it, the one with HangOn/SafariHunt built in)

    I don't know if their the best versions? But I sure find myself playing the Genesis and Colecovision Froggers the most.

    The Genesis Frogger was quite good, I thought the SNES version seemed off
