Bomberman Generation (Battle Mode), GameCube

Here’s a separate set of grabs of Bomberman Generation Battle Mode for the GameCube. The reason I think it deserves this extra set is because the Battle Mode in Bomberman Generation is arguably the best Battle Mode in any Bomberman game, and because it also has a variety of different play modes that I haven’t seen in a Bomberman game before. And it also looks great, too. So enjoy these bonus screenshots!

Evil Dead: Hail to the King, Dreamcast

Evil Dead: Hail to the King was developed by Heavy Iron Studios and published by THQ in 2000. It is a survival horror game based on Sam Raimi‘s classic cabin-in-the-woods horror film, and – to be honest – it’s pretty bad. Which is a pity because I’m a big horror film fan (have been since I was a teenager), and this game should be right down my street.

Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters, Game Boy

Developed by Nintendo and TOSE Co., Ltd., Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters is the sequel to Kid Icarus – a much-loved game released for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1986. Of Myths and Monsters was published by Nintendo, exclusively for the original Game Boy, in 1991 in North America, and 1992 in Europe. For some reason, it wasn’t released in Japan, where it was made.

The Typing of the Dead: Overkill was developed by Modern Dream and published by Sega in 2013. It is a first-person shooter that fuses the gruesome and colourful horror of the House of the Dead series, with keyboard typing mechanics. A sort of: “Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing with Zombies and Monsters“, if you will.
