The RETRO Gaming Thread!

[Bad Moon Rison]

Being a wrestling fan, these commercials were always in full rotation :

I don't remember karate fighters, but I remember crossfire.

Good talk about all things, including music

Excellent videos. They really put a ton of effort into SoR 2.

Bare Knuckle III is a far better game than SoR 3 as they said too. Game somehow went of the rails and the Japanese 'Bare Knuckle III' made more 'sense' in a bizarre way.

Wish the cats posting these old videos took the time to upscale them correctly.

Repped for the content though.

KF was on during WWF Syndicated shows.

I remember Crossfire airing during WCW programming

Have you gotten around to playing this yet?

Game is deep, game is difficult.

Nice soundtrack

This game definitely takes some getting used to due to the controls, still fun though. I don't remember how many stages we passed but I remember my nephew got the hang of before I did, lol.

Btw, those commercials took me back. They aired them in between WWF wrestling and also during Monster Truck racing show. FOX ch. 11 here in Los Angeles.

Excellent storytelling

Norm always delivers good videos. He just posted one story I totally forgot about. The time Sega was sued by Nike for copying their Air Jordan XII "frozen moment” commercial.

What do you mean? How? Don't rental stores have your information?

I have read incidences where dudes would do that on Redbox.

I'm sure it was also done back in the day

 

[joe billionaire]

They had your info and would charge you, I mean if you didn’t go back to that spot then u got away.

Growing up I never used block buster it was Mom and pop places, they would take copies of your id and all that.

I remember getting banned from a few for late returns.

I do see a lot of red box games for sale on mercari new releases same seller with at least 5 copies. I’m pretty sure they steal them.

Only time I remember is when I swapped a VHS tape of this anime movie I borrowed from the library. I think it was Inuyasha .. SMH ..

Reminds me of when we went to the mall to pick up WWF Wrestlemania 2000 from Target. We couldn't wait so we opened it on the way out the parking lot and inside the box was a Sega Genesis game. Ended up getting a copy from my cousin I think
