A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike (2003) has an unnecessary connectivity feature with a Gameboy Advance. Exclusively available in the 2-Player Vs mode, a GBA can be linked to display the wingman commands. In other words, if the player didn’t want to tap orders via the Gamecube controller’s d-pad, you can awkwardly take your […]
Hellstruck: Rage with Your Friends is a Jump King clone. If you never played Jump King, it is a comically difficult vertical platformer that demands perfection and the utmost dedication. Playing as a demon, it is your job to jump from platform to platform to reach the top. There are no enemies to fight. No […]
Clearly inspired by classic 8-bit Castlevania, Crypt Stalker is essentially a new NES-style Castlevania game right down to the overall interface, spritework, gameplay, and plot, but with some welcomed editions. Instead of being a descendant of a long line of professional vampire killers, you play as a stalker – one deemed worthy enough to save […]
This week, me and Gillman play some Supermarket Simulator (PC, 2024). During this quick stream, we talk about simulators in general and how they have annoyingly taken over all aspects of gaming recently.
Crash Nitro Kart on Nintendo Gamecube has two connectivity features with a Gameboy Advance. If the GBA cartridge version is connected, racers, stages, and cheats become unlocked (Spyro on the GBA version becomes playable). If an empty GBA is linked, a pointless music-based mini game can be downloaded.
Publish by Ratalaika Games, Orion Haste is a small, indie developed run-and-gun action game clearly inspired by Contra. While it doesn’t offer anything you haven’t seen previously, this action game can act as comfort food for those who enjoy the genre. Playing as a soldier trying to stop aliens messing with the oxygen supply, it […]
A simple 3D platformer, Master Maker 3D Ultimate only costs five bucks, has a handful of easy, big point Achievements, but is horribly low quality. All stage assets are composed of plain blocks which provides an intentional low-poly visual design. Which is fine. It is going for the retro-style theme. However, the play control is […]
Linking the Gameboy Advance version of Hot Wheels Velocity X to the Gamecube version of the same name rewards the player with two exclusive vehicles in the GBA version… that is, if you can actually figure out how to connect both games. The worst part, the GBA version lacks a save feature and the master […]
The Smash T.V./Xeno Crisis gameplay is a winning formula. High action. Short burst gameplay. Entertaining co-op. Big bosses. Swarms of enemies. Powerful weaponry. And just enough randomness to allow the player to build skill to get better. Xatrom Command follows the overall top-down gameplay of these fan favorites but forgets to include all the cool […]
Do not let the weirdly spelled name distract you. Cybertrash Statyx is an approachable, 90-minute 2D linear shooter with a simple presentation and straightforward gameplay. It is straightforward all the way around but still carries enough entertainment value to justify the cost. It might look like a Contra clone, but it is slower paced and […]
