Oh, wow! It never occurred to me they could've done essentially a Golden Axe port for MOTU. Why didn't they?! Glad someone's done it now, anyway.
The franchise was made for a hack n slash type game instead we got stuff like this
And this (I owned this one sadly)
-
Now this fan made game is pretty much exactly what I wanted from a Masters of the Universe game in every way
Instead we got some terrible adaptations of the franchise littered around various systems that nobody cared about
I absolutely love how remisisant of the show this is, from the art style to the sound effects and soundtrack
And you can even choose Lion O for some fantastic reason

Maybe on a similar avenue, games on vinyl!
This video just popped up on my feed featuring a little game about The Thompson Twins of all acts, I know Chris Seivey/Frank Sidebottom also had a game on a b-side of his, too.
I imagine even at the time they were a pain in the fucking arse to get working.
She is amazing
Watch her repair videos

Honestly, Im not the one to ask, If ever there's a situation of someone just being "the bloke who writes the checks" its me for Progress.
I believe the focus is on a few things (Im a layman remember)
1. Providing a great platform and structure for talent to flourish and want to be part of and represent Progress. Theres alot of wrestlers that, this is their full time job. And pulling in 100 quid a show doesn't cut it, but they supplement with merchandise. We want to be supportive in this.
2. Improve our streaming service and video content. The WWE contract ending was a blow but nothing we hadn't anticipated. it would be a really shitty business plan to rely on one contract to survive. I expect us to still be selling content to them. We have so much they want. Things just need to settle first. The double whammy was our streaming and subscription provider shitting the bed and us having to pivot so to speak. My main thing in doing anything is, don't fanny about rushing to do it. Do it slowly and do it correctly, so its robust and meets purpose.
3. More and bigger venues. We are at a point with alot of our shows that we could use a bigger venue. The jump in price compared to how many tickets we will sell is a big gamble though and we certainly do not want to increase prices.
As for "where does it fit in" - Like I said, I don't know the scene. All i can tell you is the stuff I've seen and teh stuff I've been to, I see alot of fans having a great time. Maybe it doesn't grow a whole lot. Maybe it stays as it is, with a small, loyal fan base and one day its passed on to others with the passion.
I popped up on here because someone on the boxing forum I'm on asked me if we were going out of business.
What boxing forum you post on out of curiosity?

Sorry not trying to backseat mod or anything, I just don’t think you’re doing them justice!
Edited last two posts
It's a very valid point and I totally agree with you

Some are definitely missing (Mega Man 8!) but that‘s a cool list i’ll definitely be having a try of.
@Big Bully Busick I watch your Youtube stuff during work but it might be worth talking a bit about the links you post rather than dead dropping them! They’re interesting stuff and it would be nice to get some discussion going.
Fair point
I'll do more of that moving forwards
Admittedly I droppthe last one whilst cooking 😂

Now this is a game we all played at a video shop in Stratford in the 90s
Before the days of street fighter 2 and fire balls, this was button mashing at its finest (that still applies today)
Thought I'd fire up the Super console X and see if it holds up and whilst it's alot of fun, boy I haven't been as frustrated with a game as much as I was with this one in years
-
So I'm going to be doing some more of these challenges
The systems I collect for only which are
Any form of Xbox
Any form of playstation
Nintendo Wii and Wii U
And the Switch (it's possible to add these but very difficult)
Rules are I can't just pick cheap games but only games I intend to play and think I'll enjoy somewhat
Now £10 is relatively easy and buying 3 games shouldn't be a problem but once I complete each challenge, I'll be moving on and lowering my budget
So if successful the next time will be £7 then 5 and I'll finish at £2(god knows how I'm gonna achieve that one)
Hope you enjoy and always love to get feedback of any sort on my content

Because I clog this board up with retro game stuff all over the place when I should maybe just keep it in here, you might have missed it when I played the full game a while back and posted about it in the PS1 thread.
Obviously I’ll be doing a little write up of the demo as well though, cos it’s a different thing innit?
Vib Ribbon is brilliant fun
It's on PS Plus currently and I played a ton of it recently
On a slightly different note, I was playing Taito's Violence Fight over the weekend and throughly got my arse handed to me
It's been edited in to a video I'll drop tonight

Croc was very good for it's time
I recently played through it again and as you mentioned, the controls haven't aged well but once you get the hang of it, it's still a fun time

The covers are night and day aren't they? The PAL cover is awful in it's own right.
It really is
It screams £2 at CEX but obviously it's a bit more than that lol

Fun coincidence actually. I was watching @Big Bully Busick’s Youtube channel and he picks a game up and says “what on earth is that”.
I knew what it was straight away.It’s the Japanese copy of Mr Moskeeto! It’s definitely a fetish thing.
Makes sense now
I've only ever seen the Pal release cover

Just had a quick look (I’m meant to be working) and as someone who also scours CEX and retro stores at any chance it seems right up my alley! Will watch properly later, nice one.
Much appreciated

Went in one yesterday as had time to kill before the bus. They had the GTA collection on PS One for £58!!!
Is this normal?
Probably cheaper than what you'd find on ebay tbh

Recently started a YouTube channel which is heavily focused on retro

Wasn't on Takeover though.
Did they not televise it?
I was there so only flicked through the show when back home

Elias has become every bit of the star I knew he would be 3 years ago. It's amazing how well he's done. He never even had a Takeover match!
He did
Takeover London Vs Bull Demsey

I got them all right, being a psychopath and everything, but look at Bob Orton Jr. Everytime I see that figure, I start to believe the rumour that he was a prototype for the "Cowboy" Bret Hart figure. Bret even says in his book they had all the merchandise drawn up before he told them where to go. It looks nothing like Bob Orton.
Same here
I had quite a large amount of LJNs at one point

The demo disc years were truly amazing
Alot of people collecting them now too
