Long before Raiden, Scorpion, Sub-Zero were a mere twinkle in the eyes of John Tobias, and Ed Boon a humble composer would code, and score an opus of cinematic 8-Bit gore.

some-great-wtf-moments-in-retro-history

There are a lot of video games out there, this I know. Some games have glitches and some games don’t.

The following games listed are some of my favorites of all time and each one has a unique surprise in store for the player.

To be this good it takes AGES! Sega is known for their consistently great arcade releases for several decades now, and in 1995 Sega decided to have Spaz/Working Designs port three classic games to their powerful Saturn flagship home console.  The results?

Welp, there's not much to say about this game except ouch. If you read one of my previous posts about NBA Jam: TE, you would have known how much that game meant to me. How do you think I felt when I heard there was a game similar to one of, if not my favorite basketball game of all time? I felt extremely happy. Beyond joyous. Charles Barkley on the front cover and an NBA Jam spin off? Yes please!

Top 10 Megaman Themes

top-10-megaman-themes

When someone mentions the “Megaman” franchise a lot of emotions well up in me, most of them anger, but the good kind that can only come from a series of games who’s controls and level design can only be called masterful!  The brilliant run of NES titles paved the way for the smash hit “Megaman X” (which I will be covering in depth soon enough.) and it some how managed to overhaul the game play of the series while still maintaining the tight control and amazing music. The music of “Megaman” is the stuff of legends and will go down as some of the greatest of all time, so I would like to take a few moments to highlight some of the musical high points of the series.

Need for Speed: Underground Review (GCN, PS2, Xbox)

need-for-speed-underground-review-gcn-ps2-xbox

Need for Speed: Underground- Gamecube/Xbox/Ps2- I feel like I owe this article to the world. I have been waiting a long time to finally review this title. This single game revolutionized the “new age” of racing games.  The Need for Speed titles in the past were known for their exotic cars and fast-paced action. Cars were being chased by Lamborghini police cars and players had to finish in first place, and not be busted by the cops. That was all good and dandy, as the Need for Speed company was cruising right along.
