12.  a) Only one of three playable characters uses the weapon in the title of this game.  Although I suppose the main villain does too.
b)  This game is playable both in the arcade and on the Genesis.  

I'll hazard a guess at Golden Axe

• Anyone who managed to complete this PS1 game without a guide book (which I used but still found the game to be difficult) or cheats certainly has my respect. Difficulty is mostly derived from the fact that levels are full of deadly traps, as well as lots of timed puzzles that kill you if not completed in time, and it not always being obvious where to go or what to do next, despite levels being very linear.
• This was the second entry in the series. The third one was even harder - there more traps in levels and it was even less clear exactly what you had to do to advance. Oh, and the third game had limited saves that you had to find in the levels.

That's gotta be Tomb Raider II.
