When i walked into my local Gamestation a few months ago i didn't have any great expectations, little did i know i was going to find something magical hidden away in the retro corner...


TURBO EXPRESS GET!

I think the only reason it hadn't been bought within seconds was that these were never released in the UK, and nobody knew what the heck it was...still their loss is my gain!


Here's a little size comparrison between a Neo Geo, MegaDrive/Genesis cart and a TurboGrafx Hucard.

Yesterday i mean't to do a little micro review of each game i played, but i didn't have enough time, today is a whole different story however!


Blazing Lazers (called Gunhead in Japan) is a really awesome top down shooter, with some crazy weapons which must have been amazing for the time, each time you collect a powerup a recorded voice announces it, because back then voices were cool, even if they did sound like ass...


In Bonk's Adventure you play ask Bonk (duh!) a little caveboy with a gigantic head, the object of the game is the use Bonk's head to er...Bonk the enemies...
Thankfully for those of you without a Turbografx it's being released on the Wii virtual console...joy!


R-Type is a famous side on shooter which hit the arcades back in 1988, The TurboGrafx version is really good and keeps pretty much everything intact, including the crazy difficulty...I can't get passed level 4...
