Speak loudly and carry a big sword.
As one of the creators of such first-person shooters as Wolfenstein 3D and DooM, the name John Romero should be familiar to any longtime FPS fan. His name certainly had meaning in the late 90's, as he would go on to form his own company and begin hyping up its first game, Daikatana for the PC. What started with a trash-talking advert and grew to three years of delays ended with such poor critical reception as to land it on the top ten list of gaming's biggest failures. None of this seemed to deter Kemco from releasing a Nintendo 64 version of the game, which appears to have been ported in three months. Playing the game, it sure seems like that's true.
Available for $2.99 through the Nintendo 3DS's eShop.
Why is he destroying his own territory?
With a name like Charlie Blast’s Territory, I was expecting a game as awful as the pun. What might sound like a ripoff of Bomberman is actually a puzzle game involving pushing explosives together to set them all off in one chain, thus clearing the stage. There are many elements to instill variety into the gameplay, which usually distract from the lackluster presentation. Although it is short-lived, there are some truly mind-bending puzzles awaiting those up to the challenge.
The joke was on me!
This is a fighting game based on the Batman Beyond spin-off, which I had never heard of before. As Batman, you punch and kick your way through mostly side-scrolling levels and must stop the Joker from carrying out some nefarious scheme. There are four different suits to choose from which each have strengths and weaknesses, such as the offensive suit which has good attacks but a weak block. There are cutscenes in between levels which tell the story, which consist of stills and text.
