Thunderbolt writes: "Games aren't as they used to be is a phrase often heard around the release of multiple movie-licensed titles, or a ridiculously lacking cash-in gaining relatively high scores. The consensus of games back in "the day" is that videogames were much more of a mind-**** and a lot harder than the powder-puff releases of today. This was usually down to two things; the inability to save frequently - even at all - and increasingly hard enemy AI - or both. The first games I encountered were the sequels to Streets of Rage and Sonic the Hedgehog, both of which could only be completed in a single play-through, so you were hard done by should the power cut out, your sister turn off the wrong plug when drying her hair or the console simply leaving to meet its maker."
There’s a reason no-one talks about this game you know. Swift judgement needs to be laid down upon it…
What better way to celebrate the Game Boy's birthday?
GS: This week on his series on gaming companies, DDJ looks at Hudson Soft, one of Nintendo's earliest partners and among the only companies outside Nintendo to develop a Pokemon or Mario game.
Gotta love Hudson. My friends and I STILL play 10-player (yes, 10 player) Bomberman on my SEGA Saturn. Those games are so fun.
Why wasn't bloody roar on that list. It was a fun fighter. I hope they add br3 and br4 a s a ps2 classic.
BLOODY ROAR , I Freaking love this game from Hudson and i wish if there's a Fifth one for the franchise .. just imagine how the multiplayer looks like when you play it with Unlimited Combos *o* !
