Personally, I wouldn’t go that far. Posters, floor tiles, accessories are more my thing than having my skin pierced by needles just to make a statement that I love […]

Talk about inspiring. I’ve just finished my daily rounds of Internet video publishing websites and found this classic video on YouTube featuring the different boss fights of yesteryear. Contra! Mega Man! Castlevania! Legend of Zelda! Punch Out! Sigh. Let me just shut up and dish out the video:

I’m currently watching a video on the history of video games by YouTube user applemctom, and my wife, Joyce, keeps asking me why I know majority of the games featured in the video. I guess my video games addiction is finally showing, eh? To test my mettle, I tried to list down in order all […]

Sigh. This is something we never had in this little tropical archipelago when every member of my generation was still young.

Picking up from where we left off, I was talking about Ken Masters’ Touch of Death combo on Street Fighter II. After a few tries (I’m trying to master it, but my fingers are kind of stiff, having been overused in MMORPGs), I’m thoroughly convinced that you can do a Touch of Death combo with […]

I found this really nick trick for Ken Masters on Street Fighter II for the arcade, Super Nintendo Entertainment System, and Sega Genesis. It’s called the Touch of Death Combo, and I’ve been trying it out (trying being the operative term). The move actually entails two combos: the first disables an opponent, the second knocks […]

Did you know that there have been at least 63 video game consoles and personal computers in the past 50 years? Well, I didn’t … honestly. So imagine my surprise when I came across this video:
The author of this mish-mash, however, missed the entire Apple line of personal computers. I owned an Apple IIc, so […]
