We took a visit to the TITANFALL ARCADE this morning to see what was going on and we really enjoyed our visit due to the Cool 8 Bit Video Games Shenanigans that were taking place in The Titan's very own 8 Bit Retrogaming Video Game Arcade!


When you arrive you are greeted by 3 legendary Atari 8 Bit Retro Gamer Classics....

BUT THERE'S A TWIST! 

In each of these classic Retro Video Games you are now in control of an indestructible Titan!

As the slogan says........

"Beat the 8-bit out of retro Atari games with an invincible, 22-foot-tall war machine at TitanfallArcade.com"

So, choose your fave game, drop the Titan and rack up them points!

We had a go on each one and we found that Asteroids was best suited to the mouse controls and was almost a therapeutic experience as we blasted Asteroids into a thousand tiny pieces with our invincible metal war machine!

Head on over to the TitanFall Arcade NOW and see what you think about these cool twists on the 8 Bit Classics!

Which One Of The Titan's RetroGaming Delights Was Your Favourite?

Playing Crazi Taxi on the SEGA Dreamcast was once upon a time one of the finest ways to spend a drunken Saturday Video Games Night / Sunday Morning

 

Just the mere mention of Crazy Taxi brings back many drunken Video Games memories as we would attempt to achieve the shortest jump by reversing down the Crazy Jump Ramp, oh what fun!

 

Released in 1999 this game has always been popular in the Games Freezer Office and we are so glad it's been ported to Android…..


Last summer we even managed to locate a Crazy Taxi Arcade Machine which even Crazier!

☆What's The Best Version Of ........ "Midnight Resistance"☆ #RetroGaming #GamersUnite

When we think back to the days of playing video games round our Friends Houses

 

We always think back to when one mate had an Amstrad, the other had a ZX Spectrum and next door had a Commodore 64

 

Between these 3 home computers there was a considerable difference between each version of a particular game.

 

It all depended on how well each publisher dealt with the conversion from the source material (which was usually an Arcade game) and obviously the general limitations of the system.


Even with the limitations of a particular system the supposedly less powerful machine could trump the more powerful due to how the gameplay was crafted.


This whole conundrum of working out which version of a particular video game was best was always a hot topic of conversation when there was sometimes such a stark difference between the video games formats.


We thought we'd resurrect those brilliant playground conversations and run a regular feature to find out the best version of some of our all time favourite video games.......


So here goes.....FIRST UP IS......


"MIDNIGHT RESISTANCE"

ARCADE VERSION 


We love the pace of the Arcade version of Midnight Resistance so in order for a conversion to be a hit we think it needs to get somewhere near the running speed as we know the visuals wont quite match the Arcade......so let's see how the home conversions faired up against the Data East classic arcade game...

Amstrad CPC
+ Nice Chunky Art Style
+ Re-Coloured Graphics
- Scrolling is one screen at a time
- Slow & Choppy Hameplay

SEGA SENESIS
+Great Looking Conversion Graphically
- Tricky Control System
- No Two player Mode


Commodore Amiga 
+ Good Looking Graphics
+ 2 Player Mode
 - Gameplay not as fluid as Arcade

Commodore 64 
+ Great In Game Music
+ Best looking of the lower powered machines
- Tricky Control System


VERDICT:

The Commodore 64 Conversion was the one we played most when younger and it's still the one we'd pick again now.

An awesome conversion that really gets the best out of the Commodore 64.

What's Your Favourite Version Of Midnight Resistance?
