It blows my mind that this "little" indie game from 2016 is the 11TH BEST SELLING VIDEO GAME OF ALL TIME. 🀯

(And yes, I play it too) πŸ˜…

Ex-Ranza: An Ex-Ranza extravaganza I’ve always thought of the Mega Drive’s lifespan as something that could be split into two neat halves: The first period from 1988 to 1991 felt like a system trying to find its feet, ha…

"gasp in wonder as the Ex-Ranza’s legs bend and move to accommodate the slopes and uneven terrain beneath them"

I NOTICED THAT TOO!!! 🀯 God this game is so good.

Great writeup! 😊 Maybe you can help me with a question...

From a high level it looks like "Leaps + Bounds" and "The Games of a Lifetime" have a similar concept. What is their main difference? Do you recommend one over the other?

(I'm born in 1981 in the US if that matters.)

Thank you!

Multiplayer Game Boy games - Faceball 2000 YouTube video by David Couzelis

Hey, Alberto! 😊

I'd say Faceball 2000 is in a different category because it's 2D raycasting and not 3D shapes. πŸ€” But I may be wrong, I know very little about 3D. πŸ˜…

Also I was surprised that the framerate is way higher in Arena mode! 🀯

It's amazing how many times I've seen people online complaining how IMPOSSIBLY HARD Blades of Vengeance is for #sega #genesis 😀

But I guess if you read the instruction manual and search for items and use all of the actual gameplay mechanics it becomes an enjoyable almost casual game! 🀯

2026 Special - Blades of Vengeance

Tonight's Mega Drive review is Blades of Vengeance.

Solid all-around. Very little to complain about.
Definitely worth my time. Maybe it's worth yours too.

@pepsimanvsjoe.bsky.social Huh. I guess I need to give both of these games another shot. πŸ€”

Maybe I wasn't using all of the moves or I wasn't playing right.
