Wild Guns (Super NES, 1994)

Today I'm taking a quick look at a forgotten SNES game. It has achieved slightly mythical status in the modern era due to a number of high-profile members of the internet singing its praises. It's... surprisingly great.

T2: The Arcade Game (Game Boy, 1992)

 

I've tried on two different occasions to cover this on the site (within posts for other games) and didn't get far either time. This time I'm going for broke. Why bother with THIS version, you ask? Well, it may not be great, but it is kind of a wonder of science that it exists at all. It's a reminder of a time when they'd try to fit pretty much ANY game onto a Game Boy port, regardless of how little sense it made or how unfeasible it seemed.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite (Playstation 5, 2021)

 

Bug Hunt concludes with the biggest bug hunt of all. This game turned out a lot better than I expected. It isn't great, but it's a fun play, and what Colonial Marines probably should have been.

Terminator Resistance Videos (Now with Kyle Reese DLC)

 

Terminator Resistance was a huge sleeper hit a couple years ago. Now it has a DLC that is just as big as the main game. I don't know what we did to deserve a good Terminator game in the 2020's, or how they put this much effort into a DLC add-on without it being expensive at all. It's pretty clear this was a labor of love more than anything else. Here are a bunch of videos of said game.

Terminator: Resistance (PS4, 2020)

We've waited a really, really long time for a good Terminator game with modern visuals. After that kind of wait, all this game needed to do was be decent and not broken. Well, turns out it's a pretty darn cool game that does a lot right. It does what any post-T2 movie should have done to begin with and gives us the story leading up to the end of the war (and the beginning of the first two movies).

Doom (Playstation 4 and XBox One, 2016)

This post will be a departure from the usual and be composed of videos. I'll be doing another image-based post shortly as Mega Mania resumes. In the meantime, gird your loins for DOOM.

Homefront: The Revolution Sux

Today I'm taking a look at the first half hour of Homefront: The Revolution in video form. The game takes place in Philly, so I brought along a couple of Philly natives. Did the game impress in the first half hour, or did it fall flat? Find out bel... oh, wait, I already spoiled it. Well, join us for a quick look at the game and why it Sux.

I try the Planetside 2 Beta

 Coming soon for the PS4! I decided to try this since it's run by the same company that runs Everquest. Unfortunately, the company that runs Everquest these days is a bit shady, which is ironic considering their name is Daybreak. Still, I'm going to spend a little while with this game and give it a quick spin.

Wolfenstein: The New Order (Multiple, 2014)

Now that's a title screen. This is one of my favorite games from last year, and tells a brilliant story of an alternate timeline where the Nazis won World War 2. Today was the release of The Old Blood, a DLC prequel to this game, so I figured it'd be a good time to take a quick look at the main game.

This post is mainly about the newspaper clippings peppered throughout the game that fill in the backstory, as the majority of the game takes place in an alternate post-war 1960. BJ Blaskowicz was in a coma for most of the new 1946-1960, so the missing decade and a half of alternate events is something he's learning about along with you.
