Suspending Disbelief
August. 1987. The 7th to be exact; is a truly special day. Rad Burst through our screens to bring home driving action that was really good. Perfect for the times in fact. It even went crazy and added 3D glasses to the mix to make sure it really did burst through your screen.
Today in 1986, Metroid came into our lives and it was a grand time. I can actually very vividly remember when I got this game well after the release date by trading it in the gym locker room at school. I was so excited to run and be blown away by her becoming a ball …
On December 9th, 1988 The King of the Monsters came home...I'm sorry, The Monster of Monsters? That's dumb unlike Godzilla.
Today is the start of NFL Preseason games so I figured why not throw out this one. Originally from October of 1990 comes a wonderful game from our youth that I will never need to turn on again. Ever. Watch the Opening Titles below for memories and leave it at that.
This a fun Zapper game from August of 1990 and it's fun, blah blah blah. Way more importantly Duck Hunt the dog is in it. He shows up and unlike in his at home Duck Hunt game; he lets you shoot him. It's not the same as Vs Duck Hunt either.
In August of '85 we no longer had to pump those quarters into the arcade cabinet to play RoadBlasters. The thing is, we still should have. This is a fine at home driving game but it is definitely better with the wheel in your hand.
Released today in 1989 was a game that could not live up to the hype. I mean; Jordan. Bird. In 1989 that was amazing.
Here we are on the last day of the month and it's time to celebrate Bad Dudes. This came came out this month in 1990 and since I apparently do not own a lot of July titles I had to goodbye to the month with one of its own.
I never played this game but you could starting today, July 30th in 1987. It's seems too fantasy and like it would be more reading than playing. Am I wrong?
In December of 1992 we were given number 5 out of 6. Like the last and the next; it was super fun. Mega Man always delivers. Always.
