So lately I rediscovered the arcade version of this. Besides that, the only Lode Runner games I've played were the Apple II and Commodore 64 ones.

First of all, I'm wondering which console versions of Lode Runner are the best? I'm thinking the PC Engine ones are, but I want some input.

Secondly, Sierra did a series of Lode Runner games for Windows 95 (The Legend Returns, the Mad Monk's Revenge, etc) and I'm wondering were these worth picking up, or should I avoid them like the plague?

And what about the 3D one that graced the Nintendo 64?

Thanks in advance.
