DOS Month Day 7: God of Thunder

DOS Month Day 7 — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 20:40:00 +0000

Want to play a Zelda like game for the PC? God of Thunder has it! This game is truly incredible, not only does it play like Zelda but it also comes with puzzles to make you think your way through. The game comes with three chapters that'll keep you busy for days on. The game has a very neat musical score as well as kewl sound effects. You carry a hammer in order to kill the badguys. For some reason the hammer returns to you as a boomerang which doesn't make much sense but hey it's a video game. There is also a GTA style gameplay believe it or not! You can go to town and kill everyone in there! Of course you will loose your points and the people with regenerate but it's fun to kill them when you are mad or can't get passed a puzzle. Check it out ok? har har har!

DOS Month Day 6: Castle of Winds

DOS Month Day 6 — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 20:30:00 +0000

Due to the lack of internet connection in my home I wasn't able to update the blog yesterday. Sadly, this will happen more than once during this month but the good news is that I will be making them up! So lets start, this time around Castle of Winds is one of the more simplistic unique games for the early windows/DOS systems. The game is a very simple RPG. You create your adventurer and use points at the beginning to make your character either very strong and stupid or very weak and smart. You venture into dungeons and with the help of the mouse you are able to click on commands. Be sure to equip yourself to the max as these games tend to be as tough as you can get. If you are up for a quick adventure that will keep you interested, this is it!

A must play game!! CLASSIC ALL AROUND! Only problem is that it doesn't have sound...oh well...

RetroN 3: NES, SNES, Genesis and wireless, all in one

RetroN 3 — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 16:20:00 +0000

The RetroN 3 gaming system tries to do it all. There's three cartridge slots in this 3-in-1 system: Super Nintendo, NES, and Sega Genesis. And on three of the four sides of the system you'll find a set of two ports for each system's original controllers. If you don't have any of those original controllers, you can play games on the included wireless controllers, which look to be total rip-offs of the six-button Sega Genesis controller. Nice!

A three-way switch on the front lets you select which "system" you want to play. I love that you could have it loaded up with three different games and then just switch between them.

According to engadget, this system is now available for $70, in both red and black.
