Back when I played a lot of PangYa with the boys, sometimes I'd listen to the soundtrack from this when I really needed to lock in

It's not truly a complete collection until they add Pyst

Just remembered these vampires from 1973's Vault of Horror whose fangs look like rolled up tissue paper.

75. Tetsujin 28-go: The Morning Moon of Midday (2007). A spinoff which takes place in an alternate continuity from the above anime, with characters are even cast into different roles, which is not distracting at all. Unfortunately, it also suffers from some of the same problems as the main anime.

74. Tetsujin 28: The Movie (2005). Kinda hard to believe how dull this is. Made heavy use of CG and despite this also made sure to animate the robots as minimally and devoid of personality as possible. Would've been much better served as a traditional tokusatsu suitmation film.

73. Tetsujin 28-go (2004). I really like the post-Pacific War setting and themes, but unfortunately, I think by the end of it, it starts to collapse under the weight of a lot of twists and turns that it doesn't really pull off that well. Tetsujin itself is an all-timer of a robot design though.

The face he be makin' at them whenever they try to get rid of him

72. Garbage Pail Kids: Mad Mike and the Quest for Stale Gum (PC). A very nice palette cleanser for the shitty movie. Does a good job of balancing the playable characters and has a good selection of extras.

71. The Garbage Pail Kids Movie (1987). So bad that it's still bad. Everything in the movie is wrong, especially the overall tone they picked for the subject matter. I don't know if it's the worst movie I've ever seen, but it's certainly down there.

70. Illusions (ColecoVision). As much as I didn't really get the general strategy in Fortune Builder, I understood it even less in this game. I guess you gotta navigate optical illusions to merge and then re-split your globules? I dunno, but visually this game looks fucking nuts for ColecoVision.

69. Fortune Builder (ColecoVision). A pretty complex for the era city simulation game. There really isn't all that much concrete information out there strategy-wise for it, so I ended up playing mostly just based on vibes which did seem to work out at least.

68. Tarzan (ColecoVision). This actually kinda feels like an early take on a Prince of Persia-esque cinematic platformer. Pretty fun once you realize that (of course) vine swinging is the best way to go from screen-to-screen. The only problem I have with it is the pit traps are fucking annoying.

Two 80s icons united by their hatred for balls

67. WarGames (ColecoVision). Basically feels like Missile Command but with a strategic map and more defense modes. And like Missile Command, it's a really stressful game, especially on the higher difficulties. In fact, I struggle to imagine how the hell this is even possible on Skill 8.
September 8, 2025 at 7:46 PM
66. Cabbage Patch Kids: Adventures in the Park (ColecoVision). Another licensed Coleco title that they actually turned into a solid little platformer. This one feels kinda like their take on Pitfall and unlike Smurf, actually gets pretty difficult really fast.

65. Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes (1984). Featuring one of the Highlander's lesser known identities throughout his long life. Really good and very character-driven. Also has some great ape (har har) costumes courtesy of Rick Baker.
September 8, 2025 at 12:16 AM
64. Rocky: Super Action Boxing (ColecoVision). Unfortunately, this was the only Super Action sports game that seemed remotely playable both in single player and without the Super Action controller. But even still, it feels like I wasn't getting the full picture, which is a shame.

63. Ken Uston Blackjack/Poker (ColecoVision). Admittedly, I didn't play this for very long. But I might go back to it one day, because given who it's based on, I'm actually very curious if the blackjack portion is "solvable" via card counting.

62. WarGames (1983). aka Ferris Bueller's Nuclear Armageddon. Very entertaining movie with a really cool ending scene. Must've felt wild to watch in 1983 for both Cold War reasons and new technology reasons. Amusingly, it still feels less dated than Hackers despite coming out over ten years earlier.

I'm so smurfed up

61. Smurf: Rescue in Gargamel's Castle (ColecoVision). A very simple, but good platformer, and one of the earliest games to really capture the look of a cartoon, thanks to the relative power of its console. That said, the suddenness of the death animations always crack me up.
September 4, 2025 at 1:40 AM
60. Undersea Super Train: Marine Express (1979). Another of the Love Saves the Earth charity specials, this time an adventure involving a trans-Pacific Ocean train and an environmentalist theme. The most amusing thing about this one is the aggressively 70s beat theme song.
September 4, 2025 at 1:40 AM
59. Don Dracula (1979). The adventures of silly Dracula and his cute daughter, which was famously canceled after only four episodes aired. It's a shame, because I thought it was pretty amusing, though I am I giant Dracula-head.
