Game of the Month: August

Street Fighter IV is Looking to Be Amazing

The more videos I watch the more this game is creeping up on my “Do Want” list. The games looks a lot better from the earlier videos but I want more frames of animation. I’m hoping that will be addressed in the coming months. I’m also excited that the North American Arcade release [...]

So begins the Fire Sale…

Starting tomorrow, the Microsoft HD DVD drive will be reduced to $50 and I know that I’m going to pick one up for myself. While the format might be dead the fire sale deals are making HD DVD hotter than ever and I expect to increase my collection at least 25% more before they dissapear from [...]

SNK Playmore is Spreading the Love on Old Games and Showing Off New Ones Too!

Here’s a long list of upcoming compilations for the Wii, PSP and the “dead” PlayStation 2 that was shown off at the GDC last week. I have a big chunk of these games but I’m looking forward to pick up a few of these collections only to support SNKP so they can make lots of money and continuing making better games.

Here’s the list:

World Hero Collection: World Hero, World Hero 2, World Hero 2 Jet & World Hero Perfect for the PS2

Fatal Fury Volume 2: Real Bout Fatal Fury, Real Bout Fatal Fury Special & Real Bout Fatal Fury 2 for the PS2

SNK Classic Collection will have: Metal Slug, Magical Lord, King of Fighter ’94, King of the Monsters, Samurai Shodown, Art of Fighting, World Heroes, Fatal Fury, Last Resort, Top Hunter, Sengoku, Burning Fight, Shock Troopers, Super Sidekicks 3, Neo Turf Master, Baseball Stars 2 for the PS2, PSP & Wii

Samurai Shodown Anthology: Samurai Shodown I-V, Samurai Shodown V: Special & Samurai Shodown 6 for the PS2 & Wii

King of Fighters The Orochi Saga: King of Fighters 94-98 PS2, PSP & Wii

King of Fighters ’98 Ultimate Match for the PS2

Of all the games SNKP are releasing, I’m most excited about the KoF 98 Ultimate Match and Samurai Shodown Anthology.  Mainly for the amazing deal for Samurai Showdown V: Special.  That game still goes for about $150 on the MVS.  I can’t wait for all these new and up coming games to be released this year.  Oh man it’s a good time to be a SNK fan.

I happy that SNK Playmore is actually making money on the old SNK products and I hope they can make better games like how King of Fighter XII, Metal Slug 7 for the DS and Samurai Shodown: Edge of Destiny are turning out to be.
The only thing that’s irritating me is that soon my collection of MVS boards will be worthless because all of them will have been rereleased. Oh well, at least I have the expected the usual delays to make my collection relevant for a few more months.

Week of 02/25/08: Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards & Psychosis

 

Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
N-64
1-4 players
1000 points

Crystal Shards is Kirby’s big jump to 3D; this game can be categorized as more of the same platforming Kirby with 3D character models and curving landscapes that gives off the illusion of 3d.  Also, the coolest new addition is the ability to merge your stolen powers and make new [...]

Rick Roll your way with DOOM!

For anyone that asks, Rickrolling is providing a link to someone that leads to that most awesome of 80′s hits. It’s infamy lives on. Also, the forces of Hell itself cannot stand this song. Also also, boomboxes on Mars? FUCK [...]
