Altered Beast (Level 1)

March 11, 2010

Level 1 (Ep. 4) - Sit down, press start and get ready for Level 1. This week we're moving away from video game classics and driving straight into a tree. Today we're going to talk about Altered Beast, Sega's terrible Genesis pack-in game. Forget what you think you know about Sega's early 16-bit game, because we're about to uncover all of the dirt when we play through Altered Beast Level 1!

The Young Turks Must Be Stopped!

They Said WHAT?!?

March 10, 2010

They Said WHAT?!? (Ep. 38) - Each and every day I look forward to my helping of The Young Turks, the hugely popular online talk show. But lately the show has made me question my loyalties. As a fan I hate to say this, but somebody needs to stop The Young Turks! Their video game reviews are giving real gamers a bad name, and somebody needs to pay the price. This is the episode you've all been waiting for, the one on one battle where Defunct Games SAVAGES The Young Turks!

Resident Evil 5: Desperate Escape

Reviews au Courant

March 09, 2010

A year after releasing Resident Evil 5, Capcom is back with the exciting conclusion to the story. In this Jill-centric DLC we get plenty of zombies to shoot at, a tense countdown to worry about and a brand new sidekick that barely says a word. And even though it doesn't contain a single haunted mansion, Desperate Escape more than makes up for it with its all-out action. At $5 it's hard to turn down the first downloadable content that actually matches the quality of Resident Evil 5!

This Week in Defunct Games

March 09, 2010

If it's Tuesday it's This Week in Defunct Games, the show that blows the lid off of the best and worst in this week's retro releases. Apparently Nintendo is looking to ride the Final Fantasy XIII press, because this week they unloaded the Super NES version of Final Fantasy II. While I love this game to pieces, I can't get over the numbering system. Isn't there something Square can do? It's the 21st century! Find out why I'm this worked up when you read another exciting episode of This Week in Defunct Games!

Comic Book Mods

March 08, 2010

Comic Book Mods (Ep. 9) - Johnny Turbo is back to fight the evil FEKA! This is Comic Book Mods, the show that takes real video game comic books and edits them in mostly offensive ways. In this episode FEKA has a new master plan. It's a plan so evil that Johnny Turbo is going to pull out a gun and start shooting at ... CHILDREN!!! Find out why when you read the first new Comic Book Mod since July!

Gradius (Level 1)

March 04, 2010

Level 1 (Ep. 3) - Sit down, press start and get ready for Level 1. This week we're moving away from the character driven action games into our very first shoot-em-up. They say that in space no one can hear you scream, but my neighbors can hear me yelling at the TV screen every time I die in Gradius. Find out how this influential shooter began when you join us for Gradius: Level 1!

Can You Defend Super Mario Advance?

On Running Feuds

March 03, 2010

Super Mario Advance sucks! There, I said it. While few people complained about the series at the time, ten years later it's hard to defend this Game Boy Advance franchise. Maybe you're the one that can talk me down. Could it be that Nintendo isn't lazy and actually had a method to their madness? Nah. But I'm curious to see if you can defend Super Mario Advance!

This Week in Defunct Games

March 02, 2010

If it's Tuesday it's This Week in Defunct Games. At least, it USUALLY is. Apparently last week Nintendo completely forgot to upload a Virtual Console game, so we all got a few days off. Thankfully we're back with SNK's classic fighter, Fatal Fury Special. Does this SNK fighting game kick enough butt to be worth your money? Find out now when you read yet another exciting episode of This Week in Defunct Games!
