Title #ThePunisher Genre #BeatEmUp Developed by #SculpturedSoftware Published by #Capcom Released in #1994 Rating 8 out of 10 📖 The Punisher and special agent of S.H.I.E.L.D Nick Fury, embark on a mission to kill the crime lord the Kingpin and bring down his organization. 👨🏻‍🦰 This game was absolutely amazing at the arcades and I played it all the time with my friend Adam and my sister Christie. It was right next to the X-Men, Spider-Man and Captain America and the Avengers arcade cabinets which I dubbed the Marvel corner. Unfortunately Spider-Man and X-Men arcade versions never made it to the 16-bit consoles but Captain America and the Avengers and the Punisher did. 👨🏻‍🦰 Though the arcade game was basically flawless the Genesis version is still good. Several gameplay aspects and breakable objects are missing as well as the extra violent gameplay. I beat this game on hard mode with Christie and she was an absolute beast in this game. Her favorite part was picking up the AK-47 and say "Rest in pieces you filthy animals". 👨🏻‍🦰 This is a great beat 'em up with comic book style action. I highly recommend this for fans of the genre or #MarvelComics #️⃣ #Sega #Genesis #MasterSystem #MegaDrive #VideoGames #Games #Gamer #Gaming #GamersLife #Retro #Classic #RetroGames #ClassicGames #Nintendo #SuperNintendo #90s #Handsome_Rob_7 #TCOAG #GOGP #SegaGenesis #SNES #Handsome_Rob_7_The_Genesis_Years 🤝🏻 @the_autistic_gamer_89 @the_og_of_gamer_past @vg_vault @the_unfun_gamer @jediscott98
Title #PrinceOfPersia Genre #Cinematic #Platform Developed by #Broderland Published by Released in #1989 Rating 7 out of 10 📖 Taking place in ancient Persia, players control an unnamed protagonist who must venture through a series of dungeons to defeat the Grand Vizier Jaffar and save an imprisoned princess. 👨🏻‍🦰 I bought this game (among others) from a private video store some time in the mid 90's that was going out of business. This game definitely inspired "Another World" and "Flashback" as the gameplay is similar. I always remember this being an "Arabian Nights" type inspired game. 👨🏻‍🦰 This is a difficult game and I died thousands of times but still managed to beat the game a few times. It takes a lot of skill and you need to remember how to control the character especially when time is of the essence. I recommend this game to those of you who want a challenge. #️⃣ #Sega #Genesis #MasterSystem #MegaDrive #VideoGames #Games #Gamer #Gaming #GamersLife #Retro #Classic #RetroGames #ClassicGames #Nintendo #SuperNintendo #90s #Handsome_Rob_7 #TCOAG #GOGP #SegaGenesis #SNES #Handsome_Rob_7_The_Genesis_Years 🤝🏻 @the_autistic_gamer_89 @the_og_of_gamer_past @tyler_vg_vault @the_unfun_gamer @jediscott98
#HappyBirthday #AlwaysInMyHeart #FuckCancer 👨🏻‍🦰 Today is my father's birthday, he would have been 79 years old. Unfortunately he passed away 27 years ago when I was 9. My father was a big and burly man, looking very much like Brendan Gleeson's character Hamish from Braveheart. He had red hair, a dope ass beard and a really deep voice. He liked to build model ships with his thick sausage fingers. Looking at him hold an NES controller was both funny and ridiculous. If it wasn't for his love of video games I most likely wouldn't have played them. 👨🏻‍🦰 He was a master electrician at Metro North Railroad and became president of their union. He also had a crazy and exciting life from the stories that my family shared with me. He was 1 of 11 kids, so my family is quite large now. When he met my mom she was only 22 and he was 39, that's a 17 year gap but it was the 80's in NYC and nobody gave a shit. My mom had me at 23 and my father was 39 back in February of 1983. My sister was born in 1988. 👨🏻‍🦰 My mom and dad loved each other dearly, I think almost everyone loved my dad. He told you straight up how it was and what's it gonna be. His favorite word was mother fucker, he said that a lot. He took us everywhere and gave us everything but would not let us become spoiled brats. He had a way of saying things that you know if you didn't listen your ass was grass, yet he never hit us. 👨🏻‍🦰 Then in 1992 he was diagnosed with cancer and lost the battle. This was absolutely the most devastating thing to happen in my life. My hero was gone forever, but yet always with me. I choose to celebrate his birthday rather than his death because he was so full of life. It brings me joy rather than pain. I still wonder if he would be kicking my ass in video games at the age he would have been. I hope they have video games in Valhalla, and I hope he's practicing. I love you, forever... Till Valhalla. #️⃣ #PlayStation #PlayStation4 #PSN #XBoxOne #XBox #Nintendo #Gaming #Gamer #Games #GamerLife #GOGP #VideoGames #RetroGames #TCOAG #ClassicGames #Handsome_Rob_7
🏆 #PlatinumTrophy 🎮 Title #Mafia3 #Mafia System #PlayStation4 #Platinum Number 127 Earned in January #2017 Overall Rating - 4 out of 10 Platinum Difficulty - 3 out of 10 📖 The third main game in the Mafia franchise, and the sequel to Mafia II. Set within the fictional city of New Bordeaux, based on New Orleans, Lincoln Clay, a criminal who aims to build a new crime organization while seeking revenge on the Italian mob. 👨🏻‍🦰 I was very disappointed with this game especially with the first two being absolute masterpieces. The storyline is very cliche via "Revenge" or "Punisher" like. The gameplay was horrible and filled with several glitches. 👨🏻‍🦰 Platinum wise the trophies are fairly simple and straight forward. Nothing is too challenging but I recommend playing off-line and not signing into the 2K servers as they glitch the count meter is some of the trophies. #️⃣ #PlayStation #PSN #Gaming #Gamer #Games #GamersLife #TCOAG #GOGP #InstaGamer #VideoGames #Trophies #Trophy #TrophyHunter #TrophyWhore #Handsome_Rob_7 🤝🏻 @the_og_of_gamer_past @jediscott98 @the_autistic_gamer_89 @tyler_vg_vault @the_unfun_gamer
Title #Phelios Genre #ShootEmUp Developed by #Namco Published by Namco Released in #1990 Rating 7 out of 10 📖 Apollo, the god of the sun, who sets off on the legendary winged horse Pegasus, to rescue his lover, Artemis, the goddess of the moon, from the Titan, Typhon. 👨🏻‍🦰 As you may already know I love #GreekMythology and shoot 'em ups so this was right up my ally. I actually stole this game from a friend of my cousins who had a really messy room with shit all over. As the days became weeks then months I realized that he never even knew it was gone. 👨🏻‍🦰 The game just uses the characters from Greek mythology as it isn't based on any story. I don't know why they decided to completely butcher the Greek mythos but they did. Yet that doesn't make it a bad game. Sometimes it feels unfinished and not always equally balanced but the gameplay and challenging difficulty make up for it. I recommend this game to shoot 'em up fans but I highly recommend the arcade version over the console version. #️⃣ #Sega #Genesis #MasterSystem #MegaDrive #VideoGames #Games #Gamer #Gaming #GamersLife #Retro #Classic #RetroGames #ClassicGames #Nintendo #SuperNintendo #90s #Handsome_Rob_7 #TCOAG #GOGP #SegaGenesis #SNES #Handsome_Rob_7_The_Genesis_Years 🤝🏻 @the_autistic_gamer_89 @the_og_of_gamer_past @tyler_vg_vault @the_unfun_gamer @jediscott98
