Gaming News That is Awesome and Radical

  • SNES Repro – Treasure of the Rudras

    Lately I’ve been into purchasing reproduction SNES carts on eBay or through 3rd party sites like Timewalk Games. “What in the hell are reproduction SNES carts” you’re probably asking. Well, basically, these individuals/companies are creating physical SNES cartridges that play either a) games only ever officially released in Japan with English translation patches applied to…

  • I Think the Site is No Longer Hacked

    After a traditionally long absence I’ve decided to randomly start posting on Awesome Radical Gaming again. Because, why not? I was inspired by Will Smith, long story. I think I also fixed the very much hacked RSS feed. I don’t understand how it is that WordPress always gets hacked. The plugins? I don’t know, or…

  • Epic Astro Story is Very Awesome

    Epic Astro Story is an amazing combination of everything I love: city builder, space and RPG. You’re in charge of a space colony on an alien planet. You recruit people named after Star Trek characters like Gordi Forge, Wes Smasher, Bones McGee, James Turk and Pavlov Hekov. You send them on away missions. You level…

  • Star Command – Amazing

    I will be buying this game, because I’ve always imagined myself as a Jean-Luc Picard-level star ship commander.

  • The 90’s Are the Best

    1UP is doing a series about why the 90’s were amazing (and sometimes not) for video games. I fully support this. I had no idea 1998 was so amazing. Also, don’t miss the X-treme ads. Only the 90’s could give us an awesome game starring Aerosmith and another starring Michael Jackson.

  • April Fool’s Day Round Up

    For me, April Fool’s day and video games don’t mix well most of the time. A lot of the jokes feel really tired or forced. Like, everyone feels the need to do something, funny or not. However, IGN’s Mass Effect 3 cartoon is pretty amazing a) because I’d rather play that game and b) I…

  • Reason 95 Why Final Fantasy 6 is the Most Awesome: Ultros

    Ultros is a recurring bad guy in Final Fantasy VI. He is a delusional, carnivorous octopus. He’s not all bad, though. He tells cheesy jokes and hits on female party members. People like him so much they do cross stitches with him in them. He’s so loved, he is going to appear DLC in Final…

  • I Feel Like Super Nintendo Games Are Just Getting More Expensive

    My dream is to some day own Star Fox: Super Weekend but, at prices like these, that’s just never going to happen. I can accept that, it’s actually rare. But why is Earthbound now going for an average of about $150? Why are you so expensive, Mega Max X3? Chrono Trigger, available on I don’t…

  • Peter Molyneux Leaves Microsoft

    Old news, Peter Molyneux has left Lionhead Studios to join a new start up 22 Cans. I think it’s a good thing, as a) I just never liked the Fable series and b) I feel like they just had to keep creating Fable sequels instead of doing new and interesting things, which is what Mr.…

  • Paid Game Reviews, They Happen

    I’m a big fan of conspiracies, so I believe everything that guy said. Also, in case anyone wants me to do paid game reviews, I will do this thing. I will also gladly plaster your ads all over the place. This way I would get paid twice. I would also get to play the game…
