Two Retro Lets Play Games (0 Comments) (link)
 Monday, 11-November-2024  21:35:16 (GMT +10) - by MUTMAN

This month's "Retro Let's Play" is now a Two for the Price of One Retro Deal.

First up we have GUN from 2005
When life robs Colton White of all that matters, the only thing left he can trust is his GUN. Follow Colton on his quest for discovery as he seeks to exact vengeful justice...
It's an epic tale of the old west, gritty, free roaming adventure, that came nearly 5 years previous to Red Dead Redemption, and some say, is the better game. The gunplay is very tight and the controls are nicely defined and feel very solid.

The second 733t game is POOYAN from 1982
The goal is to rescue or protect the piglets, by firing arrows from the elevator at the attacking wolves. Pretty easy right? Looks very easy, but isn’t.. The best versions of this game in Vanne's rubbish opinion are the arcade and the Commodore 64 editions. Easy to find, even easier to load up.

Happy Birthday Vanne!
