12 Days of Xmas 12 - Bonanza Bros for the Sega Mega Drive
Twelve days of Christmas, done and dusted, and what a fasntic way to finish off this series. Bonanza Bros is like a reverse Santa Claus simulation where you need to break in, get the goods and get out.
Bonanza Bros. (sometimes written Bonanza Brothers) is a 3D-style, 2D side-scrolling stealth action game developed and released by Sega in 1990. It is one of the earliest arcade games powered by the Sega System 24 arcade system board. It was ported to various home systems, including the Mega Drive/Genesis, Master System, PC-Engine/TurboGrafx-CD, and several home computers.
Bonanza Bros. is a side-scrolling stealth action game, with shooter and platform game elements. The players take the roles of one or both of the brothers Robo (1P, red) and Mobo (2P, blue) (Mike and Spike in some PAL versions). The object of the game is to travel stealthily around each building while avoiding guards, retrieve several objects within a time limit, and move to the roof where a blimp is expecting the player with the loot. In this fashion the plot and gameplay resemble the older Atari 2600 title Keystone Kapers, but with added features that are similar to the ones in Lock 'n' Chase. Two players can play cooperatively at the same time, as the screen is always split in two.
The places the brothers burgle include a bank, a millionaire's mansion, a casino, a mint, an art gallery and a treasury. While similar in graphics and gameplay, the story and the Bonanza Bros.' role changes from the original Japanese to the early western versions: in the former, the duo are thieves attempting to steal valuable treasures for profit whilst avoiding getting arrested; in the latter, they are recruited by the Police Chief of Badville to test security facilities and help the police recover evidence from various crooked businesses and institutions, but on the threat of jail if they fail to do so.
The player can walk, jump, shoot and move behind a column or large furniture, which allows both hiding and dodging shots from the guards, which cannot be neutralized definitively, only stunned for a few seconds using the gun or pressing a door against them. They are alerted by sounds or with the Brothers entering their field of vision, and then either hide, call for help or fire against the player. Some guards have a riot shield and can only be hit when moving away. A player loses a life if hit by a guard's projectile or melee attack, attacked by a dog, pressed by a door, or by failing to make a jump onto a springboard or zipline and landing stuck in the ground. Losing a life in these ways causes the player to drop all items. Running out of time both costs players a life and forces them to restart the stage.

12 Days of Xmas 11 - Fighting Force for the Sony Playstation
zhlédnutí 220Před 8 měsíci
On the eleventh day of Christmas (we're getting close to the end now), I wanted to highlight a personal favourite. I absolutely loved the 2D beat 'em ups, but we never got a whole lot of strong 3D entries. Fighting Force is one of the best (in my opinion). Fighting Force is a 1997 3D beat 'em up developed by Core Design and published by Eidos. It was released for PlayStation, Microsoft Windows,...

It is based on the 1993 film of the same name, which ...

For the eighth day of Christmas, we're flogging a metal ball at each other and trying to get it to the other side of the field. Speedball is super easy to pivck and play, and although it doesn't have all the features of Speedball 2, I think it's still worth checking out for its simplicity and style. Speedball is an action game released for the Sega Master System in 1990. The game was followed b...

Halfway through! On the 6th day of Christmas, you go down a deep dark hole to blast away at an endless onslaught of invaders, with some funky music. Often considered one of the strongest Jaguar titles, Tempest 2000 gave the platform some much needed 2-player action.

On the third day of Christmas, we get to shoot each other in the face in the old wild west. Outlaw is a great two player game for the Atari 2600 (and just an okay one if you're playing on your own). In Outlaw the player controls a gunslinger in the Old West. It features both one and two player games. In the one player version, the goal is to shoot a moving target as many times as possible in 99...

    So for Warcraft II, StarCraft/BroodWar, and Diablo II for Mac, can you use a two button mouse? I assumed so. I want to get them running on my iMac G3 and it’s be a real bummer if they didn’t play as nicely as the PC versions I’m used to. Also what do I do about CD keys? And I don’t need to connect them online to Battenet do I? I can just play single player offline?

    I remember the gaming magazines at the time tearing this game to shreds! Giving this game some of the lowest scores I'd ever seen for any game. While this game does have a few flaws, I think it is interesting. I don't know of any other game that gives you the ability to rewind and rewatch the matches with an adjustable camera so that's something. My biggest critique is the matches take a little too long. They should have made the moves do more damage to keep the matches shorter.

    • @LeftoverCultureReview
      @LeftoverCultureReview Před 5 měsíci

      It has its charm! And certainly a lot of competition when it was released. It did well with what the Jaguar could do - I do agree though, the matches could have been a hell of a lot shorter, and being on cartridge, loading between bouts wouldn't have been such a problem.

    I remember that the bad guys couldn't walk to the edge of the screen so if you stood in the right place, you could hit them but they couldn't hit you. Very useful when fighting those big guys 😅 and the repeated elbow technique was also very effective.
