Battletoads & Double Dragon (1993) - #VideoGame #Review

A brilliant game!

Ok so back in the early 1990s some of the biggest, 'B' level media characters were, 'Battletoads' and, 'Double Dragon'.

Now Double Dragon is still an excellent video game series, even though it has mostly disappeared, but back then, this game series was one of the first, 'fighter style' video games for the, 'Nintendo', and was so much fun, that a movie would eventually be made in to it!

And then there was the, 'Battletoads'... Now this series is gone... I hate to say it, but it is true... But this series is similar in basic concept to the, 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,' except that instead of being mutants from ooze... It is about a group of teens that can go back and forth between being, 'Toads' as well as being, 'humans'!

Now both of these series have individual video games that are a lot of fun... But they also have a video game together that totally rocks! Battletoads & Double Dragon (1993)!

Classic!

Developed by: Rare for the various consoles of the day, (including: Nintendo, Super-Nintendo, Game Boy and the Sega Genesis,) and was an amazing cross-over video game series between the two franchises!

And I have to say the individual video game series, this game rocks, it's fighting style is awesome, the FX are cool... The only two problems I have to say that really about the only things that I really don't like about this game... No story, and for some reason, the Graphics kind of really suck!

They don't really make these types of games anymore... It is a shame!

In the end though it is worth trying... Especially if you are a fan of the older video games.

Rock 'N Roll Racing (1993) - Video Game Review

A classic game, no matter what system you're playing it on! 

Ok so here is an interesting one... You might say that this particular review is a first for me... What I mean by that is that this is the first time I have been in a position to write to different reviews for the same video games on two different systems! 

Now before I go on, I should probably explain this... Well, simply put, (and this has been a pretty common practice amongst video game makers,) but essentially video game makers will have a tendency not to particularly favor any one particular video game system for the release of their latest video game... As a matter of fact, some video games will end up being released on several different video game systems! 

And you know what, so far, every video game system that I have played Rock 'N Roll Racing (1993) on has rocked... And the Sega Genesis is definitely one of them!

Have fun racing your friends with the carnage that we all know and love!

I recently got to try out this game for the system and I have to say that this game truly was as much fun on the Sega Genesis as it was when I got to play it as a kid on the Super Nintendo! I mean don't get me wrong, technologically, this game is pretty ancient, but ancient is not always bad! 

It still has it's generally easy as hell controls, a great story line,and some fun digitally created music that is based on some of classic rocks greatest hits! The only thing that I didn't like about this game is that the transfer rate between both Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo had pretty much only one fatal flaw... 

The sound may have been good, but the sound in the Sega Genesis just was not as good... There was some distortion (but that seemed to be common with some of the games that were on multiple systems.)

The sound may not have been as good, but the game is still extremely well worth it!

Anyway, for you new gamers, I do think you will enjoy this game as much, but for you gamers growing up with this game, I think you are going to freaking love this walk down memory lane!

Star Fox (1993) - Video Game Review

This game was truly revolutionary for it's time!

In a lot of ways, you could say that the, 'Super Nintendo' was a truly revolutionary product as far as video games go... I mean I suppose that the next generation video game systems, those video game systems that have, 'staying power', are pretty revolutionary...

Now eventually I will go more in-depth in to this, but for now, let me say this, ''The SNES' for what it was definitely was one of those video game systems that has allowed Nintendo to be one of the longest running (if not, 'THE' longest running) video game manufacturers of all time... But that is for another blog...

The reason that I mention what I mentioned above, is because there was a game, that, when it came out was a truly remarkable and... well... no pun intended, but was, 'a game changer' for the space fighter games of the tine... This game being: Star Fox (1993)!

A game that was truly ahead of it's time!

Developed by: Nintendo EAD, this game told the story of: Andross, a scientist, has fled to Planet Venom after being banished from Planet Corneria, and has now declared war on Corneria and unleashed an enormous army to wreak havoc on the Lylat system. General Pepper, the commanding officer of Corneria's defense force, has decided to dispatch a prototype high-performance fighter aircraft called the "Arwing." However, lacking in time to train pilots for the new fighters, he summons the elite mercenary team Star Fox to defeat Andross. Fox McCloud, the leader of the team, is accompanied by his teammates Falco Lombardi, Peppy Hare, and Slippy Toad!

Considering the similarity in content, and despite how much fun Sega's, 'Sonic: The Hedgehog' is... Star Fox definitely gave Sonic a run for his money!

In the end, this is one of the first, first person style space fighter games that I had ever played (what I mean is that up till this point, most space fighter based games that I had played generally tended to be 2D as opposed to 3D...)

Another cool thing is the fact that this game was one of the first games to employ, '3D Polygon Graphics,' which they were able to accomplish this due to the fact that this game was one of the first to utilize the SuperFX graphics acceleration coprocessor!

Another interesting fact is that this game was originally release in Japan for the Super-Fammicom (The Japanese version of the North American, 'Super Nintendo Entertainment System',) on February 21st, 1993, and would later be released for the Super Nintendo on March 26th, 1993 and then for Europe on June 3rd, 1993!

The box art for, 'Star Fox' on Japan's, 'Super Famicom'... The Japanese equivalent to North America's, 'Super Nintendo Entertainment System'!

Ultimately guys, I guess what I am tring to say, is this, if you like first person shooter games, or if you like space games, this game is a total blast... Admittedly it maybe a little hard to find, but if you can find it, then I highly recommend checking it out... It is more then well worth it!

Nirvana: Heart Shaped Box (1993) - Song Review

Kurt Cobain doing, 'Hearts Shaped Box' live!

Nirvana... These guys really turned the world upside, and made the alternative rock/grunge rock scene what it was then, and I would say that there are a lot of strong elements that are still brought to these genres today! That is why it is so sad that Kurt Cobain passed away!

But he did (along with his band,) leave a truly prolific body of work that I would say is pretty safe to say that it is by far, maybe some of the more important pieces of music to come out of the last 40 years of music!

Don't get me wrong, there is a lot of other great music out there, but a truly great band, with truly amazing music that has permanent staying power, is the band whose music remains hugely popular decades after the break up or death/deaths that ended the band! And Nirvana is definitely one of those bands that continues to entertain audiences all over the world despite the end of the band decades ago! And, 'Heart Shaped Box' (1993) is a great example of why they continue to rock!

Nirvana doing: Heart Shaped Box Live!

Why is this song so good? That is this wrong question to ask? Why isn't it good? I can't answer that, the truth is, is the Kurt Cobain did the amazing job that he always did, and the instrumentals... Forget about it!  The only thing that I am going to say negative about this (Don't crucify me for saying this guys,) but for the younger generation, they might start to find this particular song slightly dated...

But either way, no matter what age you are, try it, you might like it!

Mortal Kombat (1993) - Video Game Review

Official Score = 2 Devils

Mortal Kombat... Today, it seems like most people generally tend to know the game for it's 8 billion incarnations, and crossovers, as well as all the other forms, including Movies and TV series... And you know what? All that is all fine and good, but there is another thing that I remember this epic series... It's beginnings!

Now before Mortal Kombat became that game that seemed to be the game that other companies generally tended to crossover with, the first Mortal Kombat was a truly magnificent competitive fighting game to behold, especially when in the 1990s, competitive fighting video games were, what first-person shooter games are today!

Another thing that I thought that I would mention about this game, is that it became one of those games that would come to ultimately be a major competitor with the likes of, 'Street Fighter 2' or, 'Tekken'... Or even to a lesser extent, 'Virtua Fighter'...

That is why I was surprised at how rough the, 'Sega Genesis' version of this game truly was!

No where near as good as the Super Nintendo version...

 Confused yet? Well here is the thing about the Genesis version, the graphics and what not were not as good on the Genesis version, (definitely better on the Super Nintendo version,) another thing that I hate to say it, but was better on the Super Nintendo version of this game, was the controls were more manageable...

Now I will say this, the Genesis version of this game is not all bad... I mean it does have a better blood and gut count... And frankly another thing about this game that all the versions of this game have in their favor, is that this game is the first, and so you may not have gotten the opportunity to play as all of the characters... But that didn't matter then, and if you are a true fan, it should not matter now!

 Remember this classic move that, 'Liu Kang' had become famous for?

Anyway, this version of the game may not be the best in the world, but the, 'Sega Genesis' version of, 'Mortal Kombat', is definitely a game that all fans should try at least once!

Type O Negative: Black No. 1 (Little Miss Scare-All (1993) - Song Review

Official Score = 2 1/2 Devils

When I was in High School one of the things that I used to like to do is to listen to a lot of different types of heavy metal music, rather it be the more rock 'n roll styled, 'Metallica' to the more darker, 'White Zombie'... I listened to a lot of different bands and enjoyed most of them!

With that said, there is one band that I hadn't heard in almost two decades that a friend of mine got me in to when I was still in School... And well, I never got to hear to much of their work... (Believe it or not, there was not to much of the bands music out there at the time...) But the little bit that I was able to hear... Well I got to say that I was really impressed!

That of course being, 'Type O' Negative'... And you know what? I got to listen recently to their song, 'Black No. 1' (Little Miss Scare-All) from their 1993 album, 'Bloody Kisses'!

Type O Negative doing: Black No. 1 live in 1995!

Now I am going to say this, I have always been a fan of Gothic metal, ever since I was barely in my teens, and this song is no different, the dark over tones in this song are truly amazing! Now I will be honest with you guys, the one and only problem with this song that I do have is with the fact that at one point the chorus to this song takes over and goes to the end of it with out stopping... The problem is that where as this song has a great chorus, after hearing it for about a minute or so, I can say with honesty that it does get a little old!

For the true fan... The lyrics to Type O Negative's 'Black No. 1 (Little Miss Scare-All):

I went looking for trouble
And boy
I found her...She's in love with herself.
She likes the dark
On her milk white neck.
The Devil's mark.It's all Hallows Eve.
The moon is full.
Will she trick or treat?
I bet she will.She will.Happy Halloween.She's got a date at midnight
With Nosferatu.
Oh baby, Lilly Munster.
Ain't got nothing on you.

Well when I called her evil
She just laughed.
And cast that spell on me.
Boo Bitch Craft.

Yeah you wanna go out
'cause it's raining and blowing.
You can't go out
'cause your roots are showing.

Dye 'em black.
Dye 'em black.

Black black black black No. 1
Black black black black No. 1.

Little wolf skin boots
And clove cigarettes.
An erotic funeral
For witch she's dressed.

'cause it's raining and blowing.
You can't go out
'cause your roots are showing.

Dye 'em black.
Dye 'em black.

Black black black black No. 1
She dyes'em black
Black black black black No. 1
Black No. 1.

Five Classic, 'First Person Shooter' Computer Games Of The 90s That Rocked Before The Rest Of The World Caught On

On today's video game systems, people generally seem to thoroughly enjoy, 'first person shooter' video games... And why not? I mean these games rock, and as time goes on, with better graphics and more interactive game play. these games just generally seem to be getting better and better!

But before games like, 'Call Of Duty' came out, generally speaking, first person shooters generally tended to be left in the back row... Relegated to computer games and lesser console games, but I thought for those of you that may not remember these games, and for those of you  who are to young to have played these games when they were first popular... I thought that I would discuss what I believe are five defining first person shooter games that rocked before the rest of the world caught on:

At number 5: Heretic (1994).

At number 4: Wolfenstein 3D (1992).

At number 3: Doom (1993).

At number 2: Duke Nukem 3D (1996).

At number 1: Quake (1996).

There are a lot more out there, but for those of you out there who are like me, who truly enjoyed these games, before the rest of the world caught on to the awesomeness that is the first person shooter game... I hope you enjoyed this walk down memory lane... And if you have never played these games, give them a try... They are a blast!

Arnold Schwarzenegger... A Great Action Superstar... An AmazingHorror/Sci-fi Actor

The King of the big screen has had many layers to his storied career!

That's right folks, most people recognize Arnold for his amazing contributions to the world of the, 'Action Movie', and up til a few years ago as, 'The Governator' when he was the Governor of California... But besides all of that, there is another side to Arnold that I certainly believe is worth mentioning... That is his contributions to the world of Horror and Science Fiction!

Now most of you guys probably would recognize him in the field of Science Fiction for the work that he did in the, 'Terminator' franchise, as well as the work he did in the original, 'Total Recall' movie, and if I had to guess, I would go so far as to say that almost none of you would recognize him for his work in the world of horror!

But the truth is... Where as he may not have had much of a horror career, he has done one movie, which... Well it may not be the greatest, considering... It is alright, that being: End Of Days (1999), but he good news is that this side is growing, as it looks like Lionsgate has picked up the horror movie, 'Maggie' which is supposed to have Schwarzenegger in it, and which is supposed to be released later this year!

Arnold Schwarzenegger in, 'End Of Days' (1999)!

And as for Science Fiction... Well hell, we got the, 'Terminator' series, and Total Recall (1990), there are also some extremely awesome Sci-fi movies, such as: Last Action Hero (1993)!

Last Action Hero tells the story of a kid who loves movies so much, that when he gets a magic ticket, he ultimately ends up by mistake, not only jumping in to the world of his favorite Action hero, 'Jack Slater' (Played by: Schwarzenegger), but bringing that world back with him!

Now this movie I have never understood why is so undervalued, I mean this movie is a totally awesome fun time! I know, because I just saw it again recently (Don't worry, that review is coming...)

Fictional Character meet person who played you... A scene from, 'Last Action Hero'!

The next one that I thought that I would mention here is, The 6th Day (2000)...

Now I truly don't understand why this movie didn't get more play, I mean Arnold and the rest of the cast did a great job in it, and the story that touched on the controversy of, 'cloning', when a man ends up stumbling in to the world created for his, 'clone,' was just awesome, and hell, even the special effects were the right kind of awesome as well!

Now this last one I am going to say is maybe one of his better movies to have been released as an Action/Sci-fi movies... That movie being: Predator (1987)... Arnold did a great job in this movie, but the truth is, is that I really liked this movie because the story I felt like accurately depicted what it would be like for American forces to go up against an Alien force with vastly superior resources!

Predator... A true Schwarzenegger classic!

Anyway, there are other Schwarzenegger Sci-fi movies out there, I just thought that I would mention the Sci-fi movies as well as horror movie from above, because... Well... These are probably the best... (Well in the case of the horror movie, the only, for the time being...)

For more information on the movies I mentioned above, please enjoy these trailers:

Five Awesome Star Trek Crossover Episodes

One thing that I discovered had started to become something of a thing in the Star Trek Universe is the fact that at one time or another every series in and of itself that was on TV had at one time or another had a crossover episode with another... Believe it or, including, 'The Original Series' as well!

And with that in mind guys, I thought that you guys would enjoy: Five Awesome Star Trek Crossover Episodes!

At number 5: Star Trek Voyager: 'Death Wish' (1996).

This episode is not a major cross over, but it does have Commander William Riker (Jonathan Frakes) of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC 1701-D, and originally of, 'Star Trek: The Next Genration' fame!

At number 4: Star Trek Deep Space Nine: 'Defiant' (1994).

Is that Commander Riker with Major Kira? Or is it Lieutenant Riker with the good Major, as he steals, 'The Defiant'!

 Ok this isn't exactly a crossover... But it sort of is, you see, Thomas Riker (Jonathan Frakes), is a character that was created on, 'Star Trek: The Next Generation'... The problem is, is it is not the lead character, 'Commander William T. Riker', that Jonathan Frakes made popular in Star Trek: TNG... But never the less, Jonathan Frakes plays, 'Thomas RIker', who is impersonating his twin, 'William Riker', in an effort to steal, 'The Defiant' from DS9!

At number 3: Star Trek Voyager: 'Caretaker' (1995).

The U.S.S. Voyager's new, 'Ops Officer', 'Ensign Harry Kim' talking to Deep Space Nine's resident Bartender, 'Quark' in the pilot episode for Star Trek Voyager!

This is the pilot episode for, 'Star Trek Voyager', and prominently shows the newly christened crew of the, 'U.S.S. Voyager' as they take some time off on their way to their first mission... The place they stop off is none other than, 'Deep Space 9', and a sizable portion of that episode takes place on the sets for the Startrek spinoff, 'Star Trek Deep Space 9'!

At number 2: Star Trek Deep Space 9: 'Emissary' (1993).

Commander Benjamin Sisko (Avery Brooks) & Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) as they meet in the conference room on board the U.S.S. Enterprise-D in the pilot episode for, 'Star Trek: Deep Space Nine'!

This is another great pilot episode that brings together both, 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' and the newly minted cast of, 'Star Trek: Deep Space Nine', when the Enterprise is sent to ferry Sisko and the new Star Fleet crew to Deep Space Nine!

At number 1: Star Trek Deep Space Nine: 'Trials And Tribble-ations' (1996).

Captain Benjamin Sisko goes undercover along with his senior staff on board the original, 'U.S.S. Enterprise' to stop a plot to kill legendary Captain James T. Kirk, in one of the most technologically amazing episodes of any Star Trek episode ever!

Now I know a lot of these crossovers have had to do with Deep Space Nine... The truth is, is probably the majority of the best of them did... And I know that this isn't the only episode to crossover between the original series and TNG, 'There have been a couple', I just thought that I would mention this one for it's unique nature...

You see, through a feet of technological wonder, this episode is actually crossed over to the original, 'Trouble With Tribbles' episode, and they actually inserted the cast in to that episode! (You got to understand that the original series, 'Trouble With Tribbles' episode aired nearly 40 years before the DS9 episode!

Anyway, there are many other such crossovers, but I would say that these are some of the best!

4 Awesome Crossover Fighting Games

One thing that became popular back in the 1990s was the use of crossover games, rather they be crossovers between 2 competitive fighting games or cross overs between a competitive fighting game, and another game or a competitive fighting game between 2 other games that initially not a fighting games at all.

With that said, I thought that you guys might enjoy these awesome cross over fighting games!

At number 4: Street Fighter X Mega Man (2012):

'Ryu' from the Street Fighter series vs, 'Mega Man' from the, 'Mega Man' series!

At number 3: Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe (2008):

Mortal Kombat Vs. DC Universe brings together the good, the bad & the ugly from a classic video game, and a series of classic comics that are the basis from some great video games!

At number 2: Battletoads & Double Dragon (1993):

Battletoads & Double Dragon... A good combo, eh?

At number 1: Marvel Vs. Capcom (1994):

Marvel Vs. Capcom... A classic video game!

5 Great Sci-fi/Horror Movies That Were Turned In To 5 Video Games InThe 1990s

This Ghostbusters video game is just one example of a movie that was turned in to a great video game!

You know growing up in the 1990s one of things that I got to do is to see the effects of some of the biggest horror and science fiction movies that came out in the 1980s, and how they impacted the 1990s!

What do I mean by this? Well let's take, RoboCop (1987)...

At the time... Well this movie was truly awesome and still is! But it wasn't until the 1990s when the effects of this movie, and the impact that it would have on the industry in the whole would begin to be felt... I mean it really started growing, with the sequels to this movie coming out in the early 90s, and with the cartoon, 'RoboCop: Alpha Commando' coming out in 1999, and eventually more movies, culminating with the recent reboot of the series!

During this time we would see a growing rise in merchandising, and video games, such as: RoboCop Vs. Terminator (1993) and the like!

RoboCop Vs. Terminator, a classic video game that had 2 great movies turned in to a crossover video game!

Well there are other such examples, and I thought that it would be fun to begin to examine some of these games:

So with out further adieu:

At number 5: Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes (1991).

A classic B... Well... B whatever!

Now I will admit that with this one I never saw the movie (A situation that I intend to remedy), but I did see the cartoon that was based on the movie, and it was pretty awesome... Now I have never beaten this game, but I did play it a couple of different times back when it was first released for the Nintendo, and it is a fun one, worth at least trying if you are a fan of classic video games!

At number 4: Bram Stoker's Dracula (1993).

This game, which is based on the classic early 90s movie is considered to be one of the worst games ever made!

You might find it odd that I would add a game that sucked, but the truth is, is where as Bram Stoker's Dracula is is an amazing movie, I thought that I should add this game because... Well lets be honest, when doing a list people generally seem more interested in doing lists that they like... And this game was pretty deplorable... If you find it, do like Van Helsing and burn the wicked game!

At number 2: Darkman: The Video Game (1991).

An interesting one...

Now this one is sort of a mixed bag... The movie was freaking amazing! I only saw part of one of the sequels... And well it was alright... But as far as the video game goes, I only got to play it once, and it was alright... When you were actually playing the game... Well it was pretty fun, but, and I don't know if it was just the copy of the game that I was playing or what ever, but the truth is, is the music and sound fx sucked!

At number 1: Michael Jackson's Moonwalker (1990).

Michael Jackson is the lead character in this classic early 90s Genesis game! 

This one is sort of different... What I mean by this is that this movie may now have been Science Fiction or Horror, but the truth is, is the movie was truly amazing, and the video game , (which does have elements of science fiction in it), is truly awesome, and if you haven't tried it yet... Do so... Both rock!

Five Classic Racing Games From The Past

The 80s saw a major burst in to the mainstream of video games that of racing  games... But it wasn't until the 90s that I would say that these types of video games reached their apex! What I mean by this is that racing games from back in the 80s and 90s were some of the best games to have been released ever.

Don't get me wrong, I imagine there are some good first person racing games that have come out since the new millennium, but the problem is, is that there is just something that is not right about having a first person view of a racing game that you don't control with a steering wheel control, and the truth is is that none of these games from back then really put that type of pretension out there!

So I thought that you guys might enjoy a list of some of the classics that really made racing games great from back then!

At number 5: Excitebike (1985):

Rock N' Roll Racing (1993) - Video Game Review

[caption id="attachment_557" align="alignright" width="307"] Official Score = 3 1/2 Devils[/caption]

Through out the 80s racing games in places like Arcades, and eventually with the home console systems enjoyed a degree of popularity... But in the early 90s that popularity was beginning to wain significantly (It wasn't until the release of the Playstation, and such games as: 'Twisted Metal' & 'Need For Speed' really began to bring this particular video game genre back to life.)

Well near the end of it all there was a game that me and my friends used to play that we all really enjoyed significantly... As a matter of fact, it ended up being one of the more memorable games that I have ever played, and that is the Super Nintendo version of, 'Rock N Roll Racing' (1993)

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="389"] A truly awesome game![/caption]

Originally developed by Silicon & Synapse (Now known as Blizzard), and developed for both the Super Nintendo and the Sega Genesis and later ported for the Gameboy Advance (since I have never played this game on the Sega Genesis, or on the Gamboy Advanced, this review is for the Super Nintendo.)

Rock N' Roll Racing essentially is a pseudo Sci-fi battle racing game, where you can play by yourself with the computers, or you can play 2 player (there is still going to be computers though), the purpose of the game is to beat the race at by any means necessary...

Now in between the races you can upgrade your vehicle, but in the end, the objective of the game is to make it to the number #1 position no matter what the cost, and the truth is, is getting there is just a total blast!

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="480"] This game is so much fun![/caption]

In the end, if you can get your self a copy of this game, give it a try, it is not hard to figure out, and in the end, for me it was a freaking awesome fun time!
