SNES Classics: Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers

For me personally, the SNES is my favorite retro console. I have so many fond memories of playing various different games on my Aunt's Super Nintendo when I would spend time with her at her house when I was a kid.

If I were to get a retro console of my own, the SNES would be at the top of the list. And the first game I would try to find and buy would be Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.

This game is considered by many hardcore gamers and critics to be average or mediocre. But for me personally it hits the perfect sweet spot. It's got plenty of replayability because you can play as multiple different rangers, and it is so easy to pick up and play. The controls are fluid and easy to master, the graphics and level design is top notch and the sound and score is fantastic. There is also plenty of variety throughout the game with different enemies, and bosses that the Rangers have to fight.

I like so many other 90's kids, grew up watching the show on Fox, and this game was a dream come true for me when I first popped it in at my Aunt's house. And ever since then I have been playing it anytime I get a chance to when I come over and visit and if it was available officially on Steam, I would buy it right now.

It is one of the first games I ever remember beating and it never ceases to put a smile on my face every time I play it. If you are a fan of SNES era beat em ups or Power Rangers, definitely play this one sometime.

Games On Film: Double Dragon(1994)

Double Dragon. One of the simpliest and easiest games to ever adapt to film. Two brothers have their girlfriends kidnapped by a bunch of thugs, and its up to them to fight through a city of enemies to get them back. Its still a shock to me that it sill has not been adapted properly on film after all these years. I mean hell even the cartoon series based on the game didn't get it right and of all things took inspiration from this monstrosity instead. A monstrosity that is so horrendous and awful that most people don't even know of its existence. I only know of it because I actually used to watch it quite a bit when I was a kid. Unlike Super Mario Bros. and Mortal Kombat, Double Dragon definitely does not hold up. It is just a cringe fest. The acting is atrocious, the fight scenes are pathetic, the story is a mess, its tone is all over the place, its boring, and its terminally lame. I mean it even manages to do the impossible and make Alyssa Milano unattractive. I am n

Game Changers: Pewdiepie & Markiplier

When the game is changed, it does not always have to be something considering the mechanics, or the way the game is seen by a wide audience. It can simply just be the way it is displayed. And these two you tube titans have definitely changed the way that an entire generation has viewed video games. Pewdiepe and Markiplier have millions of subcribers between themselves and have struck gold with a demographic of young kids who are either just getting into gaming or are already immersed into it. Both started out with channels that posted "Let's Play" content that started off slow but soon started to hit the ground running and they have both surpassed any of their own personal expectations for themselves, their channels and of their peers. Before these two came along, yes, there were "Let's Play" you tubers but none that had the massive success and viewcounts that these two would recieve. A lot of people ended up playing a lot of the horror games that they origi

Game Changers: James Rolfe(Aka. The Angry Video Game Nerd)

For the first installment of this little series I like to call Game Changers where I dive into some of the biggest names and faces that changed and helped shape the way games are viewed by the masses, I decided to pick an unlikely and unusual choice. A man known more for shitting on games, James Rolfe(The Angry Video Game Nerd). Ever since his little passion project series the Angry Nintendo Nerd spread like wildfire on you tube and the internet, James has left a massive mark of his own on gaming and gaming culture in particular. For a lot of people, his popular internet review series was the first exposure many young millenial gamers had to the games of yesteryear and for better or worse, his profanity filled rants helped shape their views on them in one way or another. For me personally, AVGN is synonumous with video games. He is that deeply entrenched into all things gaming in my eyes. And since he was one of the first to do what he did, he spawned legions of imitators as well as i
