That situation with the stuck ship in the Suez Canal....who else is reminded of River Raid?

Resurrecting a review with the WAY BACK MACHINE from the old site, and polishing it up with all of this lovely 2021 "wokeness" and bitchiness, we dive into the age old question... do you prefer Commando (shirts) or Ikari Warriors (skins) in this vertical scrolling, testosterone slurping, explosion inducing review of IK. FOR ONE OR TWO PLAYERS (player two not included)

Today we review ole Bobby D's take on Cinematronics ancient vector game "RIP OFF"
WHAT IS HAPPENING OVA HERE? 
Your wife makes a friggin sweet Nacho Del Grande platter. Her Nachos are so tasty in fact, that you pridefully lay them out for your neighbors to see. Foolish boy. You live in a crappy part of town, but who knew your neighbors were pirates who have a sh*t ton of tanks at their disposal? Text your cooky best friend who lives next door, tell him to grab his tank... because those bastards are coming for your Super Bowl snacks and they hate hatred in their eyes and growling in their guts.

⛳ We're celebrating The Masters with a round of NES Open in High Score Squad, join us! 
 

Just got my copy of Once Upon Atari by the incomparable HSW. Has anyone else read this yet? 

I've heard a lot of jabrones, tricks, pimps, skeezers, furries, bad guys, gnomes and dorks say that Rikki & Vikki was one of the most impressive games ever made for the Atari 7800.
 
As a guy that has reviewed 100+ games for the 7800, I'm not easily impressed. Let's see what the Funk thought on his weekend excursion to Misery Land.

Goal for the day:  try these out for the first time.

My gaming table is bare. I may leave it this way and take a break.  I'm sure we all have that desire once in a while, right?

I just beat my first VCS game! It's a title called Spear Master. The gameplay is reminiscent of Buster Bros., where you split bouncing balls in half until they are eliminated. Spear Master lacks the platform element of that game and has a one-touch death mechanic that slows progress. 
The game was built with Unity and is on VCS and Steam. It was a lot of fun all around and had a lot of polish. 

Jump starting an alternative requires a team effort...
