master arcade retro remix throwback

Video Game Pick ups

Some pretty good Stuff out in the wild this time round, One of the highlights been Zelda link to the past four swords and Mario Bros Nes Classic on GBA, That I cut a deal on at £5.

Something else noteworthy was these brand new Shonen jump's shaman king figures that where all over Hull the other day I saw them in 3 different charity shop, Seeing they where only 50p each I managed to buy 5 out of the 6 to collect on the back of the packaging, Looks like somewhere had closed down and donated all there leftover stock to dove house.

Finally I found a amiga game in the form of The Maxis Collection, 9 times out of 10 all the big boxed games I see will be IBM PC Games, So when I checked this out in scope and saw it to be the amiga version for £2.50 I was most pleased.

The best deal has to go to the Help Charity Compilation, 3 games in one double box on PS1, Includes Myst, Broken Sword and Road Rash, All great games and 50p is just awesome.

A Closer look At Rumble roses


Firing up the Fat PS3 for some PS2 action I decided to have a go on rumble roses for the PS2, Its like Dead or alive xtreme beech volleyball meets Smackdown, All the Japanese perviness Aside, There is a quite good wrestling game in here, I looked it up and it turns out it is made by Yukes! Who make smackdown and other wrestling games, 

So if you like the WWE games or older WWF, Its just like that, With more mud and up skirts, This had a sequel on the Xbox 360 Called rumble roses XX, Both games publish by konami, The first game has adverts for Metal gear solid 3 and Contra Shattered Soldier in the background, How the mighty have fallen, Rumble roses 3 will probably end up a Pacino machine, boo Konami Boo!

Bonus Super Meat boy on PS4

So Super meat boy is the one of the PlayStation Plus game for October, Yeah I like this game, It has that easy to learn had to master arcade retro remix throwback sort of vibe to it, But I liked this game in 2010, its five years old, Playing it on my PS4 now, Its cool to give it another go but is this really the best they can do?

I remember a time when PlayStation Plus really pulled out all the stops with games less then 6 months old, Stuff that was still £25 in CEX, and now all we seem to get is old PS3 era PSN titles or more 2D indie games that seem to be churned out at a alarming rate. 

I cancelled PSN a while ago and got it back for 3 months to play a few games online and re-download some old stuff for ps3, Its going to run out soon I hope there is something spectacular in November's games or I think I am not going to bother renewing it.
