Title: 94 down, baby! Reviewed every Turbo chip
Post by: DesmondThe3rd on March 04, 2011, 08:06:25 AM
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?

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.

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.

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

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.
