94 down, baby! Reviewed every Turbo chip

DesmondThe3rd · 03/04/2011, 04:06 PM

Whoa, I just kinda realized I nearly completed my 3 year dream of reviewing every Turbografx-16 card released in North America here on Youtube. It's a strange mission but at the time (2008) there weren't too many reviewers talking about this awesome machine on the website despite how much I loved it as a kid and that's a shame. Yeah, some of the reviews are poorly edited and sound pretty odd today (Spida1a is killing me on production values) but I don't care, we need more people talking about the Turbo in my opinion weather the games are good (Military Madness, Blazing Lazers) or not (Gunboat, Deep Blue). Here is my latest TG review: Dungeons and Dragons Order of the Griffon

93 down, 1 to go, baby! Let me know what you think. What reviews you liked, which ones you hated, are the reviewers better when I'm playing with friends, what's the deal with the burger king crown and all that junk?

esteban · 03/05/2011, 12:04 PM

I must admit that I laughed at certain parts.

hizaygizirlz · 03/06/2011, 12:12 AM

Nice job man. Congratulations. I'm pretty sure I had to use a guide to find my way out of the dungeon you were stuck on. If not that one then the next one.

Ceti Alpha · 03/06/2011, 02:14 AM

Congrats, Soldier! It's been a long journey. heh

Now you just have the CD games and over 500 PC Engine titles to review and you'll have all the bases covered.

Yes.

You referenced the theme song for "The Facts of Life". That alone was worthy of a chuckle.

Yeah, the Iron Ring Woods and Red/Blue Dungeons were just insane even with the online maps.

DesmondThe3rd · 03/19/2011, 12:33 AM

Woohoo, I dragged this out long enough cause I finally reviewed every TG16 game on video now! It's the last title on the list, here's yet another low budget review of the evil Devil's Crush:

While I'll debate my Ninja Spirit and Andre Panza video were not the most informative, thanks for watching all the same, eh?

ddd1234 · 03/27/2011, 10:06 PM

Yeah baby....you starting on those pesky imports now?

Jesse813 · 03/27/2011, 10:15 PM

Well, I have a few PCE titles anyway I'll like to review.

DesmondThe3rd · 03/28/2011, 10:39 PM

Now that I'm done reviewing all the Turbografx-16 card games I figure it'll be cool to look back at some of my favourites and pick 10 of my best:
My Top 10 Turbografx-16 games

I also decided to be objective and partake on the sciencific breakdown of my least favourable titles released from it's 1989 to 1993 era as well in this videocast.
My Top 10 Worst TG-16 games

I love your special features. I think you should prolly do best and wort graphics moments in turbo gmz.

Bernie · 03/30/2011, 01:07 PM
