I just missed the Mail-in rebate...
Expired 4/30/99. Maybe I can still use the 100 free hours of AOL(America Online) ? Earthworm Jim was a classic Activision video game. Have you ever tried the Windows 95 version?

I miss games like this that had no real purpose. Just complete chaos and weird missions. But it was still fun. Beavis and Butt-Head The Game was a lot of fun. What other games like this do you miss?

That one time Mario thought getting a tattoo was a good idea!
After saving the princess for the 100th time, Mario thought it was a Super good idea to get a tribal tattoo. Mistakes were made!

Space Jam > NBA Jam?
OK, maybe it's not that good. In 1996, Space Jam was released for PlayStation, Sega Saturn, and MS-DOS. I remember playing this game on the PlayStation. It's actually decent. But definitely not as good as NBA Jam. With the success of the movie back then, it was fun to see the characters in the game. Have you ever played this game?

The Arcade game was GREAT!
OK so let's try to make sense of the difference between games. The actual arcade game, the fun version from 1991, was called Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Named after the actual movie. I loved this version. One of the games I used to play at the arcade at a local movie theater. Later they brought the game to consoles. That was called T2: The Arcade Game. Ha, the irony was that they renamed it so it wouldn't be confusing to people. So a console video game that has arcade game in it's title, based on an arcade game, that was named after the same movie name? Yeah, I'm glad that didn't confuse anyone!

Wrestling on the go!
In 1991 WWF Superstars was released for the Nintendo Game Boy. Don't let LJN logo on the cover fool you. It's not that bad. Maybe because Rare actually developed the game. I like how prints ads in the 90s usually had some sort of celebrity promoting a game. Ultimate Warrior was a beast... Awesome looking back at this print ad today.

Best Horror Series ever Created?
I remember when Capcom's Resident Evil first came out for the original PlayStation. I personally had the Director's Cut version. I never played the non directors cut, lol so I can't tell you what really changed. But this was one of the games where it wasn't easy to play by yourself at night. Haha, I think the scene in the beginning where the dogs break through the window, has me looking around in all horror games expecting for some sort of jump scare. I honestly think half the horror in this game came from the control. Ha, I remember running into walls trying to run away from everything!

Best Game Ever?
If you ask the average collector, most will say that Super Mario 64 is the best game of all time, and were hard pressed to disagree. It pretty much revolutionized gaming and introduced 3D worlds to the industry. Many games tried to replicate it, but you can't deny that even this 25 year old classic still holds the test of time!

This 90s Cartoon was a BLAST!
The video game, not so much. So if you remember this game, it's based off the 90s animated series called Toxic Crusaders. Which is based off the 80s superhero called the The Toxic Avenger! So the game itself, was not an easy game. Very repetitive. However, the music in the game was decent. Have you played the game before? Do you remember the character from the cartoon or movie?

Atari VR > PlayStation VR?
Remember how cool it was when Atari released a VR headset? Oh wait, you don't remember that? Oh, that's right. It never released. With the Sony PlayStation 5 ready to release the PlayStation VR2, I though it would be cool to show you who tried to do this first! This print ad back in 1982 hyped up a new way to play Atari games. It was an interesting technology, that never seen the day of light. That's because in 1983 there was a slight issue where Atari went bankrupt. Something known as the video game crash of 1983... Can you imagine playing Pac-Man in VR. I wonder how good this tech would have been considering how hard it is to make VR work well today.
