Doom of the Vuvuzela

Monday, June 28th, 2010

It’s been some years since I last saw the opening of Doom II – and never before like this! Umm… kudos to the author? Reminds me a bit of this reworked trailer for Invictus.

Super Mario Bros Crossover

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

You might already be familiar with Super Mario Bros. Crossover, a flash game created by Jay Pavlina over at Exploding Rabbit, that allows you to play Super Mario Bros. for Nintendo, with many other famous characters from classic games. These excellent little demo videos made by the developer show off what it’s all about, but are worth watching for the comical play-acting of the creator.

Left 4 Dead: 8-bit

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Finally, a version of Left 4 Dead that will run smoothly even on this machine! With today’s release of Left 4 Dead 2 obviously stealing all the limelight, I thought it only fair to spread a little love for this rather amusing creation from Eric Ruth. Just turn the clocks back twenty years and imagine the hype that would’ve surrounded the release of Left 4 Dead in 8-bit fashion, this is what is rather modestly termed a ‘de-make’ of the original. Slated for free release in January, and including all of the maps and monsters of the original, be sure to check it out!
