"Although the Battletoads first appeared in 1991 as an attempt to capitalize on the thriving market for humanoid animals fighting crime, they never really stuck around outside of their initial rise to fame since their last game ended up being an arcade release in 1994. Despite this, these three toads named after skin afflictions always had something of a place in video game culture and have risen once again to try and shine once more. With a fresh style of design and a new take on the characters as a whole, has this revitalization of the Battletoads been a success or a failed experiment?"
You need a reason to fight the good fight. In video games, some of the best antagonists have been female perpetrators.
One of the most memorable fights I ever played. I almost didn't want to pull the trigger at the end.
Of course Sunset Overdrive gets a nod. It's Insomniac!
I personally think there's better on gamepass then what was listed. State of decay imo is better then anything listed. Recore seemed alright for what I played on there also.

Yeah, especially on One X or Series X. It kinda feels like a PS2 platformer, but in a good way. I liked it.
Odd that he specified 'Game Pass Ultimate' instead of just 'Game Pass' just so he could include a relatively weak choice comparably in 'Alice: Madness Returns' which is available with EA Play. SoD was a far better overlooked game to have listed.
Dont know why they keep listing ultimate. Gamepass is the better value....but the reason I think is that ultimate includes online gwg.
I mean, as someone who games both on PC and Xbox, Ultimate makes a whole lot of sense. There's console exclusives and PC exclusives. And, at the end of the day, EA Play is still a perk of having Ultimate. When I open Gamepass, the EA Play catalogue is sitting right there for me. It's as much part of Gamepass as any other title I'm looking at, right?
"Arcade1Up has released numerous 3/4-scale arcade cabinets over the years, but even the coolest cabinets only feature 17-inch monitors. That's what makes the announcement of the Killer Instinct PRO Series Arcade Cabinet so exciting. The Pro cabinet includes a 19-inch screen, SuzoHapp stick and buttons, and improved speakers. It will feature not just both Killer Instinct arcade games, but also the arcade, NES, and Genesis versions of Battletoads!" says Co-Optimus.
Damn they butchered the Darkqueen on this game big time!
