Hi there!

Red Areemers are called Draconians in the Dragonlance universe:

After all the rather so-so games lately, it's been about time to spend some higher quality gaming time once again. Of course another AD&D game is always welcome in my house, especially one...

Playing Street Cred Football (C64)

Posted by Cybergoth, in Playing... 05 April 2011 · 84 views

Hi there!

I know it's hard to tell from the screenshot, but as usual that's European Football, not American:

Well, well... here I thought it'd be absolutely impossible to make a C64 soccer game worse than Fighting Soccer, but here we have a...

Playing Doctor Doom's Revenge (C64)

Hi there!

The Amazing Spider-Man and Captain America in Doctor Doom's Revenge:

That definitely is by far the longest title of a game I've been "Playing..." so far! :lolblue:

Ah well, after seeing games based on DC Comics like...

The Damned on facebook!

Hi there!

There you go: http://www.facebook....174019602646922

Well, this could be the smallest blog entry I ever wrote, but let me highlight this bit from one for their first status entries:

"Wheels are in motion for the Damned touring the United States in October. And we don't just mean California. For...

Playing P47 Thunderbolt (C64)

Hi there!

After Psycho Pigs UXB another Jaleco Arcade game got converted to the C64:

Posted Image

Unfortnately though, this one is complete trash. It should be quite a challenge to find a worse C64 programming team than the makers of this conversion. I've never...

Playing Super Cars (C64)

Hi there!

So when the NES had RC Pro Am, the C64 had Super Cars instead:

Posted Image

Well, at least it had a port of the first Super Cars, the sequel was on 16-Bit machines only. The Super Cars games were written by Shaun Southern, who wrote tons of C64 games before, like both Trailblazers,...

Hi there!

I never saw the movie, but I always liked the Sega game. The U.S. Gold one here... not so much:

Good old Michael Jackson... I've never been a really big fan of his music, but I actually do have "Bad" on vinyl. There's some pretty good music on it. I...

Playing Ninja Warriors (C64)

Hi there!

So when you cross Robots with Ninjas, you get Ninja Warriors:

Posted Image

Not to be confused with Ninja Warriors Again (not Turbo! :lolblue:) from the SNES, which is the sequel, this is the conversion of an original Taito Arcade. In case you're wondering about the narrow...

Playing Switchblade (C64)

Posted by Cybergoth, in Playing... 16 March 2011 · 48 views

Hi there!

Beware! Another case of "don't judge a game by its graphics" ahead!

Posted Image

This production got me puzzled a bit, since the original Amiga version of Switchblade was Core Designed, yet the C64 version was converted by Gremlin themselves. Normally Core...
