Oops!

Ok, so I completely forgot to post the most recent videos! There have been two since the Halloween special with hopefully one coming in the next week. Then it is the Christmas special!

First up we have! (click to go to the video)
This was a great video game back in the day and I still love this little arcade classic. 

Then we had!

If you remember a while back I reviewed the NES original then I compared it to a SNES sequel. Well I decided to look at the second game for the NES! Next up will be Buster's Hidden Treasure for Sega Genesis.

A Ghostbusters Halloween Special



I am SO excited to release this video. For those that know me Ghostbusters is a good chunk of my life so this video was going to happen eventually. This video has a guest appearance by Vee and some other shenanigans by yours truly. The very first video I ever made was about Ghostbusters (The Real Ghostbusters for Game Boy to be precise) and it was great to get back to talking about the franchise. I had a lot of fun making this video and I hope you have a lot of fun watching it.

RetroActive: Halloween Mini


Aka: The Darkness Comes


This review is pretty much super late and this is the first time I have not gotten a new video out within a week and a half after the last one. It has been three weeks and I was getting pretty frustrated by that! Originally the video that was to come after the Tony Hawk Game Quickie was a top 10 list (which juggled topics). But due to some life things it got put on hold. Once it had gotten closer to Halloween I decided to do a more holiday related video to precede my Halloween Special and since I had already re-written the top 10 list several times I figured it was for the best anyway.

Sk8 or Die!


I had decided I wanted to make this music video of sorts a while back which is what made me decide to do the Game Quickie about Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. I figured they would be a good compliment to each other. Retro gaming combined with one of my favorite series of games that has continued into the current gen with Ska...perfect combo for me. I hope you enjoy it!

Game Quickie: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

Another great title card made by Vee

Oooops I forgot to make a post for this when it came out four days ago! In any event here it is! Tony Hawk games were constantly in my Gamecube and while the first game is probably my least played it certainly has had an influence on my gaming and gaming in general. Plus, you HAVE to love that soundtrack! I mean it has Suicide Machines AND Goldfinger. You guys know I love me some ska right? Well now you do if you didn't!  Also before you ask; no I hate Reel Big Fish and to a lesser extent Less then Jake. What were we talking about again?

RetroActive: The Dreamcast Theory

Watch it on RetrowareTV
This super sweet title card made by Vee

Once I stopped being lazy this video wasn't actually all that difficult to make, though I had some issues balancing pictures and game footage. But in the end I am really happy with it, I think I'd put it in my top 5 videos so far. The issues came with that fact that with it being 11 mins long and with so much going on the file was huge. So knowing blip I decided to upload my own FLV as there would be no way they would convert it without timing out.

RetroActive: Classic 80's Price Guide



Man I just keep having tough videos to do lately! So my retro store (Game X-Change) closed it's doors a little while back. Heartbroken I had to look for a new one and stumbled on Trade-N-Game about the same distance away in the opposite direction. Upon going in I found a store dedicated to guys like me, very small but very cool. I bought some Atari games and a NES game and talked to the owner who was there about his shop and retro games in general. Of course I had to bring up my videos and we talked about RetrowareTV (which he had heard of) and how Racketboy had just been there last month to do an interview with him for the website.
