Also, instead of doing a VG Advanced Strategy segment and BC Advanced Strategy segment every week, I'll be alternating one every week on Saturday as I realize that writing those takes up a whole lot of time. In lieu of one of those weekly segments, I'm putting up a new segment, Flashy Friday, that will appear every Friday. Alright, I know it sounds cheesy, but I like alliteration damn it. In this segment I'll just link you a cool flash game that I found that you might find fun to play.
This week's game is Duck Hunt. Sure, you could play this on your NES, but this is a really well-made flash version that uses your mouse instead of a laser gun. You can play in three different modes with shooting one duck, two ducks or using a machine gun to shoot a lot of dogs. Game C, Clay Shooting, for whatever reason, doesn't work. Still, this will keep you entertained for awhile.
Video games have a great quality of still being awesome despite being old and outdated. I can never tell if this feeling is nostaglia for me or if there is intrinsic value in retro-style games. Ah, I'll get into that in another post later. For now, enjoy Duck Hunt through this link.
Re: "Video games have a great quality of still being awesome despite being old and outdated," I think the clearest example of this to me has been the infinitely replayable NHL '94, particularly the Sega Genesis version. This game was undoubtedly the highlight of the 16-bit sports games, and though nearly all of the players in the game's 1993 rosters have now retired, the game retains an incredible timelessness somehow.
ReplyDeleteThe game is far from perfect - the graphics are simply terrible by modern comparisons, the passing system is riddled with inexcusable glitches, and the sound quality is abysmal. It is one of the few hockey games not to have any fighting in it all, and drop passes weren't possible. The goalies are completely invincible. And somehow the game is the most awesome and replayable game I own. I can't explain it rationally.
One of the coolest/oddest parts of the game was the "absolute dominance" of Jeremy Roenick, who was, for some reason, completely unstoppable. I mean it was just sort of ridiculous. Roenick scoring 20 goals in a regulation game was not out of the ordinary.
Apparently I'm not alone - the game has apparently inspired an entire online community devoted to it, and an online emulator-based league. Who knew that such a game would stand the test of time?
