Fallout: London, PC [Part 2 – Avoiding the Bugs]

Before proceeding with the review, I want to bring up the “elephant in the room” with Fallout: London. Something that bothered me throughout my first two playthroughs, and also something that can be mostly avoided with some careful planning and insight. And that is: avoiding the many bugs in the game…

Fallout: London, PC [Part 1 – No Swimming in the River Thames]

Created by Team FOLON, with the backing of gog.com, Fallout: London is a free total conversion for Fallout 4, turning the English capital city into a post-apocalyptic hellscape, with various different factions warring against each other.

Doshin the Giant, GameCube

Doshin the Giant is one of those games where you ask yourself: “What am I playing? Am I a God? Or am I a turd? And is there any reason why I can’t be both of those things at the same time?! And is that my belly button or my cock? I hope it’s the former…

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!

The FM Towns version of the controversial Namco arcade game, Splatterhouse, was developed and published by Ving – in Japan only – in 1992. It doesn’t suffer from any of the censorship, that some versions of the game do, and is a completely uncut and almost perfect port of the arcade original.
