The List's 18th Anniversary Blowout Post!

It would be easy for me to say that I started this list when I was a much more motivated man, but let's not kid ourselves. I've maintained the same level of motivation for the past 18 months, the designated motivation level is simply set to "Low". I have, however managed to chip away bit by bit at this legendary list. So without further ado, on to the games I've picked up (Presented Steven style!). In the interest of shorter posts, I'll present one game per post (or one pick up per post) until I've caught up to my current pick ups.

#1 - Alien Crush (Turbografx-16)

Acquired: September 2009

Price: Traded for a 4-Pack of Mike's Hard Lemonade.

Condition: Complete

While visiting Next Level Games, my good friend and cat enthusiast Carson picked this little gem up for me. I'm a huge fan of Devil's Crush for the Turbografx, so I figured I should pick this game up as well. Playing it, it becomes obvious that this game is sort of a rough draft to Devil's Crush's sleek final copy. The visuals are on par, but the screen tends to "blink" between boards, as opposed to the smooth scrolling of Devil's Crush, which in the end comes out being the superior game. However, in the end I still recommend this title, it's one of the Turbo's more affordable games. Speaking of affordable, as previously mentioned I picked this game up for the cost of some Mike's Hard Lemonade for a friend of mine. She promptly drank it way too fast and threw up.

Conclusion: Drink lots of water and buy a Turbografx.

Next Game:

#2 - J.J. and Jeff - PC-Engine

Acquired: June 2009

Price: $8

Stay tuned!
