Blades of Steel - VC goodness

If you haven’t noticed yet, Blades of Steel is now available for the Wii VC, go get it now. This video made me smile, I can remember playing this game for hours and listening to the crowd cheer as I made a save and the announcer yelling “Get the Pass!”. The highlight of the game was the fight cut scenes, these were so much fun at times I wouldn’t even try to score goals just cause as many fights as I could. This is definitely good old fashioned 8 bit fun and great to see on the VC!

Poll: What era of gaming is your favorite?

ConsolesAfter hearing MS brag about their best lineup in history it got me thinking, throughout the years we have had different eras in gaming and consoles, which is everyone’s favorite?

For some their favorite will be the newest cutting edge technology, the nostalgia of the old 8 bit consoles, the progression to 16 bit or the classic old school Atari days. This can be viewed from many aspects like, games, hardware or just pure preference.

For this editor I think my favorite era of gaming has to be the NES and Sega Master System days. This opened the world of gaming to my eyes and got me really hooked, I can recall spending hours playying Ninja Gaiden and Contra, while discussing with my cousin which was the better system between the two. (I was always the Nintendo owner)

What do you guys think?

Who has the better trailer?
