Star Wars Battlefront early access

So far after spending around three hours of Star Wars Battlefront I must say its freaking awesome! Sure it´s mostly mutliplayer (there are a few things that you can play singleplayer but nothing with a story) but there´s so much to unlock and do. Wanna ride a speederbike on endor? Sure you can do that! Wanna defend/attack hoth with At-Ats? You can do that aswell. Or do you like more x-wing vs tie fighter battles, you can do that aswell. The later is really awesome, there so many spaceships in the air at the same time so there´s nearly impossible not to get a kill. I truelly love that game and I can´t wait to start playing it with my friends. If you haven´t done so already, BUY it now!

The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past Review

Okey this is actually the first Zelda game that I played and enjoyed. I remember I had my problems with this one as well when I was younger, mostly because I weren´t that good in english (yeah i´m a swede). But however I did my best and the deeper in the game I came, the more I wanted to play it. I got help from my friend who had beaten it. This was the start of my Zelda gaming. Since then I have been hooked.

So A Link To The Past is the third part of the Zelda game series. It goes back to the root of the series (that is The Legend of Zelda for the NES) and takes the gameplay from it but makes it bigger and better. This was a common theme in SNES era to do games from the NES era but this time bigger and better (Super Castlevania, Super Mario World, Super Contra and Super Metroid to mention a few). It´s top view of Link again, and this time he is asked to first get three pearls to be able to get the Master Sword. Just as he has gotten the sword and defeated the evil wizard and the player thinks the game is beaten, Link gets teleported to the dark realm. Which is as huge as the light world is.

There´s plenty of stuff to get in A Link To The Past such as heartpieces, if you collect four you get a new heart. There´s plenty of items to try and find aswell which will help Link conquer the darkness. And there´s a few minigames to win extra rupees. The game offers a something extra for the player which is rarely seen in a game.

The enemies in the game is something extra aswell, they have a nice design aswell, and it´s fun to see enemies from the first and second game in a better looking game with updated designs. The bosses are staying true to the SNES theme with being alot bigger than the player himself. The bosses also adds a element of strategy which the player needs to figure out, example what item to use and how to avoid its attacks.

This can be a challenging game but it never feels impossible, as long as the player stays cool and taking it slow everything can be conquered. If you haven´t done so already, try this game out because this is a real diamond in the snes library that needs to be played.

10/10 This is one of the best SNES games out there which needs to be both played and owned!

Here´s the video from me playing this game 100%

Onto the next game!

So legend of Zelda 2: Links Adventure is here by finished, next game in line is Links Awakening, that is a game I haven´t played since I owned the first Gameboy and man that is ages ago.

If you want to see my run through of A Link to the Past you can watch it here:

And here´s my playthrough of The Legend of Zelda, beware that the sound in the first part is cut out, the reason is because Twitch somehow thought that the music was copyright... hm well here we go:

Triforce heroes chaos... fun chaos!

So last night I played Legend of Zelda: Triforce Heroes, and man is it fun to play with people. The chaos it ensures is a fun kind of chaos, especially if the team tries to complete a bonus mission. It was me and two (for me unkown people) who tried to beat the last level in the watertemple world. At the same time we had to escort an orb through every level before the timer reached zero. It was an awesome display at cooperative gameplay when you really can´t talk to your companions. I must play this game more! :D

By the way, tomorrow will be the last day of Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past, I will be done with that game tomorrow!

New LoZ timeline!

Okey so thanks to The Legend of Zelda: Triforce Heroes game we got a new timeline. I really love how the story somewhat is connected in all games. Check it out here:

The question is now should I continue with my plan on what games to play next or should I go with this one!?

Update on LoZ month!

Hey guys, so yeah im still at school but im coming back tomorrow. However I bought LoZ: Triforce Heroes and it is freaking awesome so far. Still I havent tried the multiplayer yet. So im trying to do this solo and it is somewhat difficult.

The costume thing is real cool feature still I only tried out 2 different "special" costumes. But as I said I'll be black online tomorrow with some LoZ: A Link To the past.

Update on the Zelda Month!

Yey so we´re getting closer and closer to face of against Ganon the king of darkness in A Link to the Past. I have recently completed the second dungeon in the dark realm and are now making my way to the third. However I will not be able to stream/play until friday (hopefully) because I´m going away this week. I´m going to the middle of sweden for studies so that kinda sucks!

But on friday (hopefully) I will be back online with some more Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, so meanwhile I´m gone, rest up and have fun!

The Legend of Zelda month has begun!

So it´s begun, my Legend of Zelda month. Why? Well because about two years ago I bought The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds for my nintendo 3ds, I was about to start playing it when my wife screamed my name and said it was time. Time for our daughter to say hello to the world. Our daughter Zelda was born November 23rd 2015. So I thought to myself why not celebrate both her and the Zelda franchise by doing a Zelda marathon in a whole month (probably will be longer)

The Zelda games are my favourite games and now it´s time to play them all again. It´ll be so much fun! I will be doing All of the Zelda games, however I´m not sure just yet how to be able to stream and upload videos of the game cube games just yet (those I know I can upload and stream and how, just need a nintendo wii to do it). The hardest part is to be able to upload videos of Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks and A Link Between worlds, because I have literally no idea on how to get it on my computer so any idea is appreciated.

The Zelda games are dear to me mostly because I love the exploration in those games, getting new equipment in each new dungeon and the boss fights. The visual compartments and the soundtrack is just awesome as well. The character design is pretty neat aswell. I love the trio of Link, Zelda and Ganon(dorf), they truelly represents evil vs goodness, courage, wisdom and power.

So everyday I´m uploadin one to two videos on youtube from the Legend of Zelda month, mostly from my streams. The first game out is A link to the past, yeah I know I didn´t start in a correct order, but the reason I choose to start with that game is because it´s the first Zelda game that made me really love the series. I did play the first and second game on the NES before A Link to the Past and while I enjoyed those I didn´t really care much about them first. Nowadays I pitty myself for not liking them more back in the days.

I´m not sure just yet how I will do with the gamecube version of Four Swords Adventure, mostly because I do not own that game as we speak but maybe if I get a hold if I will stream it and upload it to youtube.

And when I´m not streaming I´m probably working with my new art, The Legend of Zelda meets Star Wars... I´m really getting satisfied with that piece, I will upload it when it´s complete! 

So the list are as following:

A Link to the Past (snes)
Legend of Zelda (nes)
Links Adventure (nes)
Links Awakening (GB)
Ocarina of Time (N64)
Majoras Mask (N64)
Oracle of Seasons (GBC)
Oracle of Ages (GBC)
Wind Waker (GC)
Minish Cap (GBA)
Twilight Princess (GC)
Phantom Hourglass (DS)
Spirit Tracks (DS)
Skyward Sword (WII) ps. This is if I get an hold on a wii and the game.
A Link Between Worlds (3DS)
Triforce Heroes (3DS)

And I hope you will follow me through this marathon.

Here´s the link to my stream

And here´s the first part of my A Link to the Past videos:

Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi Review

The last game of a trilogy of really cool star wars games. This is the one that sums it up and actually the only one that I owned myself under the snes era (I have bought the other two later on).

There´s so much to talk about this game, it keeps the arcade game feeling however this time around it´s a bit easier. This is actually the easiest game of the three, might be because I have played this through multiple times but I don´t think so. There´s not as difficult platforming like in the other two games.

So what has changed since Super Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back? Well to start it off, you can now choose you´re character again (most of the times). You can also play as two new characters, Leia and Wicket (you know the little Ewok bear?). Leia plays out different depending on if she´s dressed with bounty hunter gear, slave or rebell. That´s a really cool feature that they have added, the different costumes that plays a big role in the movie is in here in the game as well. And frankly there´s probably a big lot of guys who as always wanted to play with slave Leia. Wicket is one heck of a cool character aswell, armed with a bow he can fire arrows and climb upon those. This reveals new paths to go which is kinda awesome. Also his bow is really powerfull and ofcourse his height aint that big which makes him a harder target to hit for the enemies.

Don´t get fooled by that the game is easier than the rest because there is still alot of deathtraps in the game like small moving objects that the player needs to land on, all kinds of different enemies with a taste of blood in their mouths. The boss battles still is pretty bad ass, mostly due to the oversized bosses (which was a thing in retro games and still are) but also that it mostly takes memorable characters from the movie and let´s the player fight them. Bosses like Jabba the hutt, Darth Vader and ofcourse the Emperor.

And ofcourse there still are vehicle based levels, the game even starts with one where the player needs to travel to Jabbas palace. You will be able to speed through Endor with speederbikes and fight against the deathstar in Millenium Falcon.

The third time around this gaming continue on delivering what fans of the game and movie expects which is packed with lore and really cool action. It´s fast paced, difficult but a real fun experience. There´s not a dull moment in the game and it´s something for the whole family to enjoy because of the easy controls.

Overall - 9/10, easy to pick up, hard to let go off. Get your friends and play this now!

Hey if you haven´t already done so, check out the first video in my lets play of this game here:

Super Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back Review

Ok so I told you guys that I loved Super Star Wars: A New Hope, well this time around nothing has changed. The second game in the ssw saga deliveres both challenging platforming but also fun gameplay elements such as more vehicle based missions, character powers and more levels.

What makes this game great is that it still have the touches that made the first game great but it adds more. Now if you die and have used up all of your continues, you don't have to start all over, you can use a password which will take you to the start of the level you were at. This is a great way to get the player coming back for more. Also do I need to remember you guys that under the snes era it was more usual to use passwords rather than to save?

The game delivers on really challenging platforming, sometimes the player needs to guess where to jump to next. In overall the level design as been scaled up a notch. The levels are much bigger this time around, there are multiple paths to take and explore. However this time around the player can't choose who to play as. Each level has its own character, which seems only natural because the game follows more of the story from the movie than the first game did.

The characters you take control of in this game are the same as last time, you got Luke Skywalker, still got blaster and lightsaber but this time he got force powers (well later in the game). He got he´s rebel pilot suit on and it looks awesome. You get to play as Han Solo again, still got fire blaster upgrade but also got grenades that he can throw which does huge amount of damage on the enemies. And lastly you get to play as Chewbacca and he can this time around spin around hurting enemies and still not take any damage himself, this is usefull all the time. You get to drive snowspeeder, millenium falcon and an x-wing but you also get to ride a tauntaun on Hoth.

The player still needs to keeps his focus on what´s happening on the screen because there is alot of projectiles flying around and enemies who are trying to kill the player. At the same time the player is trying to do almost impossible jumps which are prompting the player to jump at the last possible pixel.

The game world is filled with more life this time around mostly because the background environment is more detailed and there´s lots of more "living" enemies. Hoth truelly looks amazing, so does Dagobah and the cloud city.

Overall - 9/10, If you haven´t done so already, buy this game, it is a classic that will never die!

Here you can check out the first part of my playthrough of the game:

Super Star Wars review

Ok so if we think back to the year 1993, the snes console were still pretty new in europe. High quality games were produced like butter, one right after another. But still there hadn't been a good star wars game, and star wars were huge in my school and between me and my friends. So when Super Star Wars hit the stores me and my friends played it like crazy. It was the best way to expierence star wars other than the movies. But nowdays we got plenty of star wars games that we can play, some are ok, others suck but some are real good. So the question is if Super Star Wars still holds out as a great game, but also as an great addition to the star wars universe?

I have bought Super Star Wars and Super Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back to my SNES recently (yeah I did it after playing through the Star Wars Battlefront beta). I already own The Return of the Jedi. I started SSW up together with a friend of mine and the first thing to hit us was that this will not be a walk through the park. The game is extremely difficult even on the easiest difficulty. There are enemies and projectiles flying everywhere so the player needs to be really aware of the surroundings.

 There are so much detail in the game world, they´ve nailed all from the classic star wars soundtrack to how guns sounds when fired to enemies growl or death shouts. Ofcourse there are enemies in the game that haven´t been seen in any star wars movie but it doesn´t do anything because at the time the game was released the star wars world was a big mystery itself.

So the game starts at Tatooine, where you control Luke Skywalker in his quest of finding first C3P0 and then the story goes like the movie (almost with a few spinoffs), you will see areas like inside the Sandcrawler, more of the city Mos Eisle, inside the death star and also the attack on the death star. Most of the time you control a character that goes blasting through alot of enemies (hey you even get an lightsaber later in the game), but sometimes there are vehicles which you control. Vehicles like the Sandspeeder and X-wing are playable, and those missions stand out from the rest of them, here you have an objective to fullfill. Sometimes you need to massmurder Jawas and other times blasting down Tie fighters and defensive gun towers.

The thing I love most of the game is how the game takes it source material very serious but then does something new has well. Like I told you already there are some missions in the game where the movie never shed any light on but the game does in its own cool way. There´s also huge boss battles in the game, you will fight of the Sarlacc, huge defensive robot in the deathstar, also the tractor beam which is shut down by Ben Kenobi in the movie is an boss.

The game is still quite fun to play with some pretty difficult areas which sometimes are mostly based upon luck due to some poor controls (not always poor controls but sometimes). I would really recommend you guys to test it out if you haven´t done so already.

8/10, Overall the game is challenging, fun and a real contribution to the star wars universe.

Check out my gameplay of the game here:

Mega Man review

Mega Man the blue robot who can take the powers of his enemies, that´s a short description of Mega Man (Rock Man, japanese title) that I used when I was earlier when I was trying to tell my friends of this game. The game released in in december 1987 in north america and may 1990 in europe. This was actually not my first Mega Man game that I played, I started playing Mega Man 2.

Mega Man was thought to be an action arcade game that friends would compete against eachother for the highest highscore, however the game didn´t sell as good as the developers thought it would, it wasn´t until Mega Man 2 that the little blue bomber got the attention he deserved.

In Mega Man you take control of a blue little robot called Mega Man who was created by Dr. Light, you are off to fight against your old friends who have turned evil by Dr. Wily. However the game didn´t follow the traditional level order, instead it let´s you choose between 6 different levels right from the beginning. Each level had their own distinct look and music, but also they had their own robot master. There were 6 robot masters that needed to be beaten before the real adventure to get to Dr. Wily began. Cutman, Elecman, Fireman, Iceman, Gutsman and Bombman, they all had their own power that could Mega Man could be getting from them. My favourite is Cutman, not sure why but I really like his level and the boss battle.

Once you have killed all 6 robot masters Dr. Wily stage is accessible, his levels are a true test on the players skills, this is not an easy game, not by far. The player needs to check his/hers surroundings all the time, make difficult jumps on moving platforms while being shot at, Mega Man has a life bar and next to it you have your ammunition bar. If a player runs out of ammunition it´s empty but can be refilled with item drops from enemies (which are rarely seen).

This game started a series of 10 games to different consoles, a couple of other Mega Man series games included in them are Mega Man X and Mega Man Legends. The blue bomber has however yet to recieve a game that is doing him right in the later years of gaming history, except for Mega Man 9 and 10 that went back to the roots there haven´t been a mega man in many years that can compete with the NES games.

Summary
The game is brutal in difficulty but enjoyable because you can always try again. It´s fun to see how Mega Mans upgrades works and finding the right weapon against a difficult boss to see his life drop down to zero in mere seconds is as enjoyable as it can be. However Dr. Wilys stages are the most painful way to see the end of your adventure.

Overall Rating
7/10 It still holds up a tough challenge and the game and music is great to play in short bursts, my recomendation is getting this on 3DS and play it while you are on the move.

Donkey Kong Country Review!

Last sunday I decided to play through one of my favourite game on the snes. This game is a game that play every december in while waiting for christmas eve, Donkey Kong Country. This game defines quality in games. It got cool characters full of life, one of the best soundtracks in the gaming world and some awesome game mechanics. It also has some of the best graphics on the snes.

So lets begin describing the story, there are an Island where the Kong lives. The Kongs are the heroes of this game and consists of Donkey Kong (main protagonist), Diddy Kong (main protagonist aswell), Cranky Kong, Funky Kong and Candy kong. Their archenemy the Kremlins have stolen Donkey Kongs banana collection, ofcourse D.K and Diddy sets out to get them back from the Kremlins. The story aint very complex but that is somewhat expected from a platforming game from the 90s. 

The game mechanics are pretty simple aswell, you push B to jump, Y to roll and if you hold Y you run faster. The things that stood out however from other platforming games like Mario is that instead of upgrades such as a mushroom that will make you grow in size and take a extra hit you got your monkey friend Diddy Kong who is following you. This means that you start of playing as Donkey Kong and if you take a hit you change to Diddy Kong while DK is runnign out of picture. You can also swap who you want to play as anytime you like, if you have both monkeys with you. If the player runs out of monkeys he or she will loose an extra life. Why you would like to swap monkeys is because they are different from eachother. Donkey Kong who is a big gorilla, is strong and can jump kill bigger enemies that Diddy Kong would just bounce of from. While Diddy is smaller, faster and can jump higher. However that is not all, there are a couple of animal friends locked in boxes that the player can save and take control of. Rambi the rhino can jump on spikes and smash into Zingers without taking damage (Zinger is a bee like enemy), Engaurde the swordfish grants the player the ability to fight back under water, which could be fatal for the outcome in a level. Nonetheless, if you get hit while riding on a animal you will loose it, but you can easily get him back if you catch it before it runs down a cliff or something. The animals run around like Yoshi does in Super Mario World (if you have played it).

One of the strongest part of the game is the level design. Platforming has never been as fun as it is in DKC, it´s challenging but never feels impossible. I´ve lost countless with extra lives while trying to beat a level. Oh by the way did I tell you that every world has a boss fight? The bosses are huge animals who sits on a part of DKs banana collection. They are fun and kinda creative, they are often bigger versions of some common enemy. They are not so difficult once the strategy against them are learned. By the way there is one song in the game that is actually bigger then the whole game itself, it was way to big from the beginning to even have in the game however the developers really loved it so they somehow made it to work and I can only say thank God for that because it is one of my favourite songs from a video game, the track is called Aquatic Ambiance.

Summary
In Donkey Kong Country you run, jump, swim, blasts from barrels and ride minecarts to get from point a to point b. It´s a fun, sometimes stressful and unforgiving game but that manages to compete against Super Mario and Sonic. If you want more mayhem try out the cooperative gameplay with a friend, fun and challenging. It´s still as fun today as it were back in the 90s and you could listen to the music anywhere and still love it. The visuals are from an era where magical places where players got lost in how beautiful and riched detailed the world really were was something that was a big thing in games. I can start spotify and play Aquatic Ambiance and close my eyes and letting my thoughts wander away.

Overall
10/10, A better platforming game on the SNES is hard to come by, this is the top of it´s class.

Resident Evil Review

Resident Evil the game that many claims to be the first successfull survival-horror game. It first released for the Playstation console, but then later got ports to nintendo 64 aswell as pc. It has been remade into a completely new experience in Resident Evil (for gamecube) and Resident Evil HD remaster (xbox360/one, ps3/4 and pc). It was also released with another edition for the Playstation system with Resident Evil Directors Cut.

I was only nine years old when Resident Evil hit the shelves in europe. Me and my brother had been together with our parents to the capitol of sweden (Stockholm) for a shopping trip when we found this game. We were nervous and excited on the trip back home which took around two hours, we couldn´t wait to get home to be able to play this game. When we got home we put the disc into the playstation, sat down quiet infront of the tv, and it began. The first thing we got greeted to was this man walking in a corridor and the camera chased after him, the man turned around and started to scream. The screen went black and then the blood sprayed our scream and we heard a voice saying "Resident Evil". We knew already there that this was something new, nothing could compare with this at the time.

This was 21 years ago, much has changed, we no longer use these "tank" controls or fixed camera angles. Our characters we take the role of playing today moves faster, aims faster, shoots faster. We are not used today with this slow paced fear. But I must admit that still today the fear of being eaten by a zombie still hunts me. However will the game still be as good today as it were 1996?

Let start with the story, time to pretend we don´t know anything from the other Resident Evil games. The game starts with giving the player some background information about, strange murders where the victim seems to been eaten, mutilated and then shifts to a helicopter with the elite force S.T.A.R.S. who are sent to the outskirts of Raccoon City where the murders originated from to investigate. The Alpha team who consist of six members (two members the player can control) lands in a forest for continue investigation on the ground. It doesn´t take long until the group is ambushed by a flock of zombie dogs also called Cerberus. One of the members dies and the rest of the group retreats to a nearby mansion. While inside one member is missing (changes who´s missing depending on who you are playing as). They now need to try and find a way to escape the mansion but also the origin of the monsters.
 The game has some cliché moments in the story and the voice acting is terrible, it is often considered as one of the worst acting in a game. Appearently the voice acting in japanese were so bad so they scratched it and kept the american voice acting even in the japanese version. The members of most important is Jill and Chris because these two the player can choose to play and the gameplay will be different depending on who you choose to play as. Chris doesn´t have as much inventory space as Jill but he can take more damage, Jill have a lockpick and Chris has a lighter for starting items. Jill gets back up from Barry and Chris gets "help" from Rebecca.

That was little about the story lets check the game mechanics and controls. So you push forward to walk forward and back to go backwards, however you can´t sidestep or walk at the same time you are aiming your gun. This made the term "tank controls" to come alive. you can run and you will not get tired from running. The game only offers a certain amount of ammunition, weapons and health items so the player need to be sure that it is absolutely necessary to kill an enemy or if he really should use the health item. You don´t have infinite with save oppertunity either, first you need to find a ink ribbon and then you need to find a typewriter to be able to save. And ofcourse there´s a limited amount of ink ribbons aswell.
So the mansion and the other areas aswell in the game are filled with puzzles and items to pick up and solve, books to read to get a better grip of the story aswell as enemies to kill the player.

This is the game that set the tone for the upcoming horror games generations to come. The game didn´t offer just one story line but two depending on who you choosed to play as, it had multiple endings and secrets that could only be unlocked if you met the requirement after you completed the game.  This made the game worth to replay.

Now in 2015 the graphic is really outdated, the voice acting is even worse BUT the gameplay is gold, this is where things started for my horror fascination in games, this is a big title that is still fun as hell to play today, it is challenging for newcomers and veterans alike. It takes around 5-7 hours to complete first time around, but can easily be completed in 2 hours for hardcore fans.

Overall 9/10 - A classic that never dies.

And as always here are some of my playthroughs of the game with Jill and Chris.

Mike Tyson´s Punch Out! Review.

The next game I played on the list was Mike Tyson´s Punch Out! This is and old game but gold.
It´s kinda hard to get a hold on for the NES because there are two releases of the this game, first we have Mike Tyson´s Punch Out! and then we have the regular Punch Out! and in the latter we have Mr. Sandman instead of Mike Tyson as the last opponent.

In this game you control a young boxer named Little Mac, and boy is he small. Your opponents are often twice the size of your character. But that doesn´t stop Mac from entering the ring. You got five different attacks, low left punch, low right punch, high left and right punch and uppercut. You can only do uppercut attacks when you have a star in your inventory and you use by pressing the "start" button. You get stars from hitting your opponent when the "shine" which means your are hitting them with a counter attack or similar. It doesn´t matter if you use your right or left attack but it differs if you use lower or upper attack, sometimes you need to hit the opponent in the head to be able to combo attack him.

You also have a heart symbol in your inventory which represents your stamina. If it goes down to 0 you´ll get kinda paralyzed and you are only able to dodge incoming attacks before it refills. So under that time you are unable to hit your opponent.

This game is all about memorise the movement of your opponent, counter attack and use uppercuts in the right time. If you go all in and just mash the buttons you will most certainly fall to the ground failing to win the round.

So let´s look over the extra life mechanic, you can get knocked down twice in the same round, if you get knocked down three times it´s over, you can´t get up. When you get knocked down the first or second time you will have to button mash the "A" and "B" buttons to get back up. One round has a three minute timer, however it goes a bit faster than normal seconds so I would say you got 2 minutes a round. If you fail to win a match you get sent back to the opponent before the one failed at, if you loose again it´s over and you need to restart the circuit. Don´t worry because at the end of every circuit Little Mac runs behind his trainer dressed in a pink training dress, and at the end of that cutscene you get a password which is the old way of using save points. However the password is very long so you better get paper and pen to write it up.

The game starts off pretty easy, just to get a hint on the mechanics of the game, the first opponent is Glass Joe, which has a 01-99 win/loss ratio, so winning over him shouldn´t be a big of a problem. But the second opponent is more of challenge for those new to the game and the third can be a real pain in the but for newcomers.

This is a game I played alot together with my father, we got pretty far in the game, but never got to fight Mike Tyson, I can probably say that will be the case again, because later in the game the difficulty is a real pain, the game is however still fun to play, challenging yes but fun. The game still holds up for todays standards, not the graphical department but the gameplay, it´s a fun game to pick up, play a couple of matches. You can now buy it on nintendos E-shop for the 3DS, I really recommend this game. Don´t forget that the soundtrack of this game brings awesomeness to new level.

Overall 9/10

Little Nemo: The Dream Master review.

I started playing Little Nemo: The dream master yesterday, it´s one of those nes games that I have in my shelf but never played through when I were a kid. Then I thought to myself that someday I need to complete these old games, how could I call myself a gamer if I don´t?

So a little backstory to the game, Little Nemo: the dream master is a game released by Capcom (the dudes behind Resident Evil and Mega Man series) and is based on the japanese animated film Little Nemo: Adventures in slumberland.

The game takes place in Nemos own surreal dreams where he is supposed to save slumberland from the Nightmare King. Nemo meets with different animals that he can take controll over such as a Gorilla that can climb walls and punch enemies, a Bee that can fly and shoot stingers and a Frog that doesn´t move to fast while going but can jump high and crush enemies under him.

I played this game pretty much when I was younger and one thing that I remembered was that it was pretty difficult, even by NES standards. And that was something that I noticed this time around aswell. Even as we speak I haven´t been able to beat the last level of Nightmare World. It´s not that it is difficult due to random enemie movement (well that´s just a little part of it) but it´s surprisingly difficult due to your own clumpiness as the player. If you die you know why you died, it´s not because of poor programing. What I mean is that multiple times I know I had only myself to blame for my deaths. But it never felt impossible to beat and everytime you get further in the level you got some adrenaline and a feeling of desire to see more.

So you start of with having three extra lives and three health bars. If all extra lives are emptied you return to the title screen, where you can continue. This allows you continue from the beginning of the level you were at. At your disposal as weapons you only have candy that you can throw at enemies to stun them, this is not however killing them and they are only stunned for a short while. However the candy is used to get your animal friends asleep so you can ride them, if you don´t get them asleep they will hurt you aswell. Much later in the game you also get a morning star in your arsenal that is required to kill the bosses.


So the environments in the game really feel like a little kids dream, the first level you start off playing is in some sort of forest, where the mushrooms have grown up to tree length. You are later entering a water level, toy store and your own house. I really enjoyed to the level design and environments, always wanting me to see what the next level would bring. However there are some autoscrolling events in the game, and the first one is in the toy store where you have to ride this toy train through the whole level. This was surprisingly hard and it took me some trial and error runs before getting past that area. To be able to advance to next level the player has to find several keys to unlock the door to next dreamworld. The number of keys differ from level to level, mostly they aren´t that hard to find if you explore the level (which you really should) and they are always in the same place.

The soundtrack has some nostalgic moments that brought me back to my childhood. It was an nice and really set the tone for the level you were at. It´s one of the better NES soundtracks.

Overall the game was difficult but fun ride which should´nt be overlooked in any NES collection. If you haven´t tried the game yet you really should, and if you haven´t beaten it give it another go and I promise you won´t be sorry for doing so.

Overall score: 8/10

update: I have now beaten the game, the nightmare king has fallen! The boss fight itself wasn´t that overly difficult once you learned his patterns. But challenging never the less.

And here´s the video of me playing the game, be aware I curse sometimes Lets play!

New schedule for fall 2015!

Ok so I have been thinking alot lately on how to make my twitch streams better, cause I have this pile of games that only grows bigger the order I get that I want to show you guys in the stream. And then we have requests of games from you the viewers that you want to see me play. So I thought to myself that the best way is to have some sort of schedule that will be working for the coming weeks in fall 2015. So i started to look over the games that I want to play, the games you are demanding and so on. So we got resident evil series, new games such as Batman arkham knight, Witcher 3 and Eso and we also got dark souls 2. What my channel on twitch was all about from the beginning was good old retro games such as super mario bros, donkey kong country and mega man. So the schedule I have put up is as follows:

Mondays - Retro Mondays, here I will play games not younger than gamecube and ps2 era.

Tuesdays - Donated requests, here we'll be having games that you guys want me to play as, however a request will only be accepted with a donation/follow

Wednesday - Fright night - on wednesdays I will be playing horror games.

Thursdays - anything can happen thursday, as the title says, here anything or any game can be played.

Fridays - 1001 games that needs to be played/games from my collection, ok so this is where things get interesting, either I'll go through my book "1001 games that you need to play before you die" or I play the next game on my game collection list starting of with NES and then SNES games and so on.

Saturdays - Games that needs to be beaten, so here I choose a game that I still haven't beaten and try my best to be able to beat it.

Sundays - Forget about monday, this will be a relaxed stream day, playing anything just to be able to forget about that both monday and winter is coming.

This schedule will be starting next week, that is week 32. And remember that the real stream time is 9pm gmt+1 (Stockholm timezone) til approximately 11:30pm (depends on viewers/new followers/donations). This time is for sunday til thursdays due to work in the week, on weekends the starting time is mostly the same however end time is farther away, so the end time for streams on weekends is approximately 3 am or 4 am.

If you have any suggestions on the schedule or any sort of input, please let me know in the comments below.

As always dont forget to swing by Stream.

1001 games I must play before I die!

Is the title of my new event on my stream and youtube page. The backstory for this is as following:

I were in the capitol city of Sweden (Stockholm) with my wife and her cousin plus her cousins boyfriend. We went to a store called Sci-fi bookstore. And there I found a book with the titel "1001 video games you must play before you die", and I thought to myself that it would be a great theme on my stream to have that.

Therefore I bought the book, and while we were riding the bus home, me and Markus sat down and checked what games there were. Well I can say this much, it´s games from the seventies and spans almost to date. So my first thought was "how the hell am I going to find all these games". Well atleast many of them can be found online. So it´ll be interesting to see how many of these games I will actually be able to play.

So my plan now is to atleast start of by going through the games depending on the date they were released. Starting of with the seventies. So every week I will make a schedule for how my streams will be and which game I´m going to play. There´s also a challenge in all this for you guys, I want you to try it out aswell and let me know how many games you came up with.

This week´s schedule is as following:

The Oregon Trail (1971) , play it here The Oregon Trail

Pong (1972), play it here Pong

Breakout (1976), play it here Breakout

Boot Hill (1977), play it here Boot Hill

Combat (1977), play it here Combat

Space Invaders (1978), play it here Space Invaders

Adventure (1979), play it here Adventure

Asteroid (1979), play it here Asteroids

Galaxian (1979), play it here Galaxian

Lunar Lander (1979), play it here Lunar Lander

As you guys can see there is alot of games from the 1970s, after this week we´ll be hitting the 1980s, which will prove to be alot of games to try out and maybe beat (?).

I hope you will be with me on this crazy journey, if not on the Stream atleast on youtube, you can always check my twitter for news from me at twitter.

New theme on the stream!

So the new theme on my stream is: Games that needs to be completed!

I have started today with army of two: the devils cartel. So this theme will work like this, I'm going through every game that i own and that i haven't beaten yet. So now I'm going through my Xbox 360 game list and I'm starting with the letter A and then B and so on. 

As I said I started with the Army of two today and I have now beaten it. It was a typical action game where you don't really have to use your brain other than for aiming and shooting. I will be giving this game a review tomorrow where you guys can read my thoughts of it. Tomorrow there will be assassins creed IV: black flag. 

If you guys have any game that you haven't beaten and wants to see, let me know in the comments below.

Next weeks stream schedule!

So for the upcoming week there will be a horror game theme everyday except for monday.
The reason is because on monday it is may the 4th which is Star Wars day. And ofcourse there will be a Star Wars stream then. Not sure which game but it´s between Force Unleashed or Jedi Knight 2.

The rest of the week will however be horror themed. With games like Resident Evil HD Remaster and Fatal Frame. I got some more games in store that are horror themed, so if your favourite horror game didn´t make it this week it might happen next week.

And one more thing, thanks for everyone that donated to me this week, you made it really special for me. Thanks alot guys/gals it means the world for me. I will try to keep you guys/gals satisfied.

Here comes the schedule by the way.


Monday 4/5: Star Wars day! Happy May the 4th

Tuesday 5/5: Resident Evil HD Remake

Wednesday 6/5: Fatal Frame trilogy

Thursday 7/5: Fatal Frame Trilogy

Friday 8/5: Fatal Frame Trilogy

Saturday 9/5: Outlast

Sunday 10/5: Outlast

I better keep clean pair of pants close to me, playing outlast is something that I wanted to do in long time but not sure how I will react when I play it, will be cool to see what I´m made of.

Silent hill 2

So today I finished silent hill 2 for the first time since i finished it for 14 years ago. This time I understod the story better, got more emotional involved with the characters. Oh man what a great game, it gotta be one of the best phsycological horror games out on the market.

I got the "Maria" ending and at the end Mary (James late wife) reads her final letter to James, explaining her feelings, and are mist regretful towards how she became as a person with this illness she had. Just hearing her reading this letter made my eyes full of tears. Its so sad and yet feels so close to a reality many people alive have witnessed. 

To think that a game from the Playstation 2 era could bring such an deep and emotional story is mindblowing. Too bad Konami choosed to scrap Silent Hill PT because I think that would have been a life saved game for Konami.

With this said I'll need to get to bed because work calls my name early in the morning. Tomorrow (tuesday) we'll start the playthrough of silent hill 3. 

Night all

Streaming schedule for the week!

IHey guys and gals, this week I will be focusing on Silent Hill games. Starting the week off is Silent Hill 2 followed by Silent Hill 3 (hopefully on tuesday). On thursday there will be (hopefully) Silent Hill: Homecoming. And then we'll see when Silent Hill 4, origins and shattered memories will be streamed.

I might even fix so I can play and stream Silent Hill: downpour.

Other than that everything seems to go smoothly and Im still planning for the next weeks stream if you have any ideas or wishes on What you Would like to see on the stream please let Me know in the comments below.

Monday: Silent Hill 2

Tuesday: Silent Hill 3

Wednsday: Silent Hill 3

Thursday: Silent Hill: Homecoming, will probably be an all night stream.

Friday: any Silent Hill game

Saturday: any Silent Hill game

Sunday: wrapping up the Silent Hill week with either Silent Hill: downpour or Silent Hill 1 fast run

Next week plans: 

Either resident evil week, ps1 horror game week, start of final fantasy month or space game week.

Streaming status!

So I'm back streaming again and this time I'm here to stay. I have bought a new computer so the stream flows excellent.

However thats not the only thing thats new I've also fixed new alerts when new people are following me, new donations arrive and people are hosting my channel. I'm also trying to get my gamecube to start working so that I can be able to stream from that one as well. 

And ofcourse a shout out for WoMaTiX who's still the king of donations, thanks man for the $25 donation! :D

Walkthrough videos!

So last night I created a walkthrough video for resident evil (original) on how to complete the game long under 3 hours and getting the best ending, rocket launcher and special key.

However I've only been able to upload one of the four parts, the other three parts will be uploaded today. I will also start on creating a video on how to beat resident evil 2 in under 1 hour and 30 min  today. I'm thinking about doing Claire A and Leon B scenarios today. 

The plan is to have a tutorial video for all resident evil games that I own, Dino Crisis series, silent Hill series, Castlevania SotN and lords of shadow, megaman and much more, so be sure to check my youtube channel often. 

If theres a game you want me to do a walkthrough on please leave a mark in the comments below :)

Resident Evil walkthrough!

Hey guys so my first resident evil walkthrough video is up and running on youtube, check out the first part here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGDVbzzWba0

It´s Jills campaign, speedrun walkthrough with the best ending, this will let you guys complete the game around 1 hour and 30 min which allows you to use the infinite rocket launcher and special key! :)

Rest of the parts will be up tomorrow.
