Zelda movie trailer

for those that don't know this was just an April fools joke, but how awesome would it be for someone to create a live action Zelda film?

Disney's Aladdin (SNES)

Whats up readers, was just reading a blog from another blogger that I'm subscribed to (click here), and noticed he did a blog about Disney's Aladdin for the Sega. After watching the video I noticed that its not the Aladdin that I remember. Because I played the one on SNES. So I figured I would put up a blog about the SNES on. This was one of those games that didn't take a lot of skill to get into, but once you started playing it you where hooked. It's so much fun trying to jump and bounce off guards then try to grab the sides of buildings and pull yourself up. And fro some reason throw apples at attackers to knock them out. One of the other fun things about this game was the password, instead of saving the game you get a password, and when you come back to play again you just enter the password and pick up where you left off. Sure its more work then just saving, but there was always something cool about having password when you where younger. Here enjoy the video.

E.T. Worst Game Ever!!

E.T. is largely known by old school gamers as the worst game ever, if you remember this game, you're sure to remember how frustrating it was trying to play it. It seemed as if there was no purpose to the game. Me and my friend James the Worthy Critic have talked about this game quite a bit and both decided that the game had no end. You just walked around and collected little dots for points and tried to not get caught by Doctors, or FBI agents. It's easy to think this due to the fact that there was no instruction booklet to the game. After finding out that there was a point to the game it turns out it wasn't that bad after all, still not great, but not worthy of the title worst game ever. The basics of the game is to collect pieces of a telephone so E.T. can call home. And theres even ways of being able to find out which holes these pieces where in before falling down in them. So here is a short video explaining how to beat the game E.T.

Below is another video explaining why it was so hated

Super Mario Bros. 1 (just finished)

I just beat Super Mario Bros. again although I didn't think about grabbing screen shots through out  the game just thought about it at the end, but I'll probably go back through and grab some soon, but for now here are the ones I did get. Oh and I did use the warp zones. Do not look below if you do not want to see screen shots from the end of the game.

my all time favorite game (Zelda)

Figured I'd start out with a post talking about my all time favorite game which happens to be The Legend of Zelda. I remember as a kid setting up all night playing this game, and how cool it was to have an all gold cartridge. One of our favorite things to do while playing this game is to cut off all the lights and make sure it is pitch dark right before picking up the piece of the triforce. Some of you reading this that know what I'm talking about maybe you did it too, and it just seems dumb now, but was awesome at the time. This is a game that I sadly say I no longer own, so if anyone out there has one they want to get rid of please let me know or even if you have anything relating to the game, any type of memorabilia just post a comment on what you have. And hopefully soon I'll be able to edit this post to have a P.S. at the bottom stating that I now own the original cartridge, book, and box that it came in. So for those of you that are old enough to remember the game, get it another try just to relive the quest to defeat Ganon and free Zelda. For those of you that are to young, but love the role playing games, this is one that help start it all, so you need to check it out. It's truly a timeless classic.

and just for fun a zelda speed run, not by me. Nor did I create the video, just wanted to add it to the blog. Warning, it does show the end of the game, and a lot of the inbetween.
