It's said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. It's also said that every idea worth doing has already been done. Over the course of gaming history, there have been untold numbers of developers who have taken these words to heart, sometimes to garish extremes. The results are often pale shades of great games, discarded into the void of mediocrity and/or consigned alongside the other shovelware to the bargain bin. Occasionally, however, a rip-off stands out from the pack, whether because it so expertly captures (and expands upon) the spirit of its inspiration or, in contrast, is so terrible that it sits as a reminder that execution matters as much as the idea behind it.
Certain villains in gaming, such as Resident Evil's Mr. X and Baldur's Gate 3's Raphael, have accompanying, super fitting OSTs that strike terror into the hearts of players.
If you've ever wanted a Streets of Rage 2 movie then you'll love these AI generated stills look like they have come straight out of Hollywood.
I'm really surprised this got through pending honestly, this is incredibly low effort and half the work has been done by a program.
Movie images?, that would mean still taken from a production, which these are not. You do know that even bots are making random ai art right? Skill level 0. Keep it on your Social media feed and wow you clueless friends. Look What I Can Do!
In the 16-bit era, game devs and composers could finally change the type of tones used in the music, simulating a wider array of instruments and creating a whole lot of great soundtracks in the process.
It wasn’t easy picking out the best of the best because there were so many great ones. Even middle-of-the-road soundtracks seemed to deserve a bump if the game was just that damn good, and so many from that era are that damn good!
Here's the Ghetto Gamer list of top 20 soundtracks from the 16-bit era.
Always love me some Golden Axe and Streets of Rage.
Mario? Wasn't that a clone of some really difficult Japanese game?
Army of 2 was ok. I didn't like how every gun was basically the same or the terrible camera during coop. The completely stupid moral decisions that had BS lol worthy outcomes (you save a little kid then he goes and kills his family or some shit wtf?) didn't help either. But I had fun playing i with my bro
Dark souls is a CLONE
