Emulation Arcade – Avengers

Avengers is a fun, straightforward action brawler that involves you advancing toward a seemingly endless barrage of enemies, punching and kicking your way to justice. Yes, this sounds like Final Fight, but there are a number of twists. Firstly, it’s overhead and has a look and feel similar to that of Commando, but with you […]

Emulation Arcade – Action Fighter

Well, I’m kinda tapped out right now as far as creativity, so I figured I’d start up a new series of reviews, this time centering around different stuff I can emulate on my MAME32 emulator. So first off, what is MAME32 and what is emulation? Well, emulation is something I discovered in the mid 90s […]

My Paranoia – Free To Play

I’m 29 and I’ve been gaming since I was 5. To me, a game can be many things, but most of the time, it’s a game you MIGHT play in the arcade, then hope it comes in some sort of console version right to your home. Back in my day (oh man I hoped I’d […]

Play This Fighting Game OR GO TO HELL – Round 1

In an effort to acknowledge all videogames that truly deserve (and totally ridicule those that don’t), I have chosen to go forth and highlight some fighting games. And by that, I mean 1 on 1, 3 on 3, or whatever. Not that beat-em-up, brawler, or hack n slash stuff. Not that it’s bad, mind you, […]

Brawler of the Year – 1999

This is actually a surprisingly good year and what a year to end on. No, there weren’t that many titles, but what was released was pretty damn good. This was not an easy year to pick a #1 as a result.

Brawler of the Year – 1998

This was an incredibly slow year for brawlers. Unless my info’s wrong (and you can blame Wiki for that if it is), there were literally only 3 brawlers this year. Worse still, I had no prior knowledge of these titles going into this and, well…they’re not that great.

Brawler of the Year – 1997

This was a slow year for brawlers (unless Wiki’s being a jerk). However, there were some interesting titles this year all the same.

Brawler of the Year – 1996

There weren’t that many brawlers this year, but trust me…if you recognize at least half the games in the runner ups list, you’ll know immediately this was a hard year to call a #1.

Brawler of the Year – 1995

This was a slow and therefore REALLY easy year to choose for brawlers.

Brawler of the Year – 1993

This year we start seeing many more console titles. They’re not always that great, but they’re there all the same! Actually, this year was tied up for a while, but it eventually became clear who the true winner was.
