I played some Ikari Warriors on 7800 today. I never had this one back in the day. It's brutal! The NES version is a cakewalk in comparison.

One thing I really like about the 7800 version is that if you hold the fire button, it locks you into whatever direction you are facing, allowing you to strafe easily. I'll be playing it some more tonight..


I loved Ikari Warriors. It was one of the first NES games I ever beat. The first sequel Victory Road was great too.

Really cool looking guns in Cyberpunk, for iconic weapons etc.

But a lot of the time normal weapons you acquire have better stats. So you have to choose between something that looks cool vs something more potent.

Shame you can't customise the look of your guns.

Does anyone know how the car colouring option works? I was hoping I would be able to copy the decals of cool looking graffiti cars. Gang member cars.

Oh wow. Had been seeing stuff about Hulk Hogan not doing well recently but wasn’t really expecting him to pass away. He was a huge part of creating what wrestling is today and a huge part of me getting into it when I was a kid. Shame that he was quite an asshole in real life though.

My favorite thing about Hulk Hogan was him playing Thunderlips in Rocky 3. That scene is still hilarious. LOL

Yeah, I loved that as well. Seeing him throw Rocky around like a small child made me giddy. LOL

This is pretty much my thoughts. I was a huge Hulk mark back in the eighties. Now I don't care for the guy. Guess he did live long enough to see himself become the villain.

I find that the less I know about celebrities in real life the better.

It’s true what they say, “Never meet your heroes.”

He was a huge part of my wrestling viewing childhood. And we didn't even get proper WWF shows broadcast here terrestrial.

We got lots of WCW before they merged.

I think celebrities should only talk when they are on the screen and only be seen at launch events.  If they stuck to that, most of them would have better careers and happier lives.

Hogan was a real life turd, but I will always give him credit for being great with his fans. It really didn't matter what was going on, he would slip right into character when he was meeting people.

Case in point, back in the 2000s, a friend of mine would often go with his mom to work, who was a night nurse at a hospital in Tampa while she worked. And at 12 or 13 years old he would just hang out in the unused areas of the hospital and would make trips to the cafeteria or vending machines, etc.

One night on one of those trips he was in the elevator when who is standing next to him? Hulk Hogan. In a hospital gown and pushing a mobile IV stand. My friend said hi to him, and Hogan slipped right into character even in that state, telling him how great nurses like his mom is and how important it is to take care of your body, etc.

So yeah, guy who could do that in a hospital gown with his ass hanging out deserves some credit for that. But he deserves every single knock against him as well. And boy there were a lot of them.
