Oh my god, I LOVE crappy games. I don’t know what it is – I think I have a problem. I was told a while ago that my brain responds to negative emotions in the same way it does positive ones, so I can only assume that there’s some twisted psychology gubbins going on for…

Yearny Thursday: ASCII Keyboard Controller
The GameCube controller is my favorite controller ever. I love how rounded it is, and clicky, and colorful. The only way it could possibly be improved is if I could use it to quickly type to whoever just beat me at Rocket League that I intend to shag their dad. With that being said, and…
Yearny Thursday: Seaman
Alright, look. The Dreamcast was ahead of its time. I will die on that hill. A hill that also has Sonic Adventure down as the best 3D Sonic game ever made, and Croc: Legend of the Gobbos as one of the most frustrating and overrated games to hit the PlayStation. Yes, I’m this hill by…
Yearny Thursday: Steel Battalion
Oh my GOD, we need to talk about this controller. Have you ever fantasised about driving an actual tank? Well, look no further! The closest you are ever going to get is right here, in the 2002 game of Steel Battalion. That is, assuming you aren’t planning on joining the army – but all things…
Yearny Thursday: Legend of Camelot
This week, I am yearning for The Legend of Camelot on PS2. Yes, it’s another Phoenix game. What can I say; I have a problem. An addiction, if you will. To shitty games. Legend of Camelot is another one of Phoenix’s godawful republishings of a Dingo Pictures cartoon, which they had previously made a game…
The Rare Case of the Bootleg of a Bootleg
Ooo, yes. I do love me some crappy bootleg games. Unlicensed, zero quality control, zero f*cks given. Bootleg games were absolutely rife for years, before the likes of Nintendo put their massive corporate foot down and made it harder to publish them. Many were copies of already published games, and many were simply redos of…
Yearny Thursday: Crabby Adventure
Excuse me – yes, you – have you seen this? Have you seen this complete and utter BELTER of a video game cover art? It’s 100% the best cover art I have ever seen, it really gets me pumped for what the game might be like. If I saw this on the shelves in a…
Look at this bulls**t Sega Sports Pad controller
I’ve been editing a video about Sega’s ‘Great Sports’ series for the Master system, released between 1986 and 1988, and happened to come across this monstrosity. This is the Sega Sports pad, released in America in 1986. It only had two games that were meant to specifically work for it – Sports Pad Football, and…
The Last of Us II – A Masterpiece Soaked in Blood
At the time of writing, The Last of Us II has an average of 4 out of ten user reviews on Metacritic. That’s especially low for a AAA game, and what’s more bizarre is that the critic reviews come to more than 9 out of ten. Well, if you wanted proof that there’s still a problem with…
