Super Castlevania Video

Game Play-Through

@lordKayoss’s Super Castlevania Video

Lab Work – Super Castlevania Video – Castelvania IV Coverage

Dive into the Super Castlevania IV Video, a 1994 Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) epic adventure.

Quick Take

Gamestop or Ebay classic game choice, pick up any of the Castlevania games in the series (regardless of console). Simon Belmont vs Dracula, like Tom and Jerry, Batman and The Joke, classic good vs evil game. This game is truly an epic, genre defining game. Remaining  relevant today for you gamers out there. Specifically, those that enjoy Metroid-vania style games. Including these titles: The Last Faith, Blasphemous I, II and more.

Furthermore, a great follow up to the NES/Game Boy series games: NES – Castlevania I, II, III GB – Castlevania I, II. There were a few arcade games I never got the chance to play in the arcade, which is a bummer… So, for reference there is a huge jump between GB Castlevania II and SNES Super Castlevania IV and Dark Souls for example.

The Castlevania Series

Those of you who are new to the Castlevania series, or new title, be prepared for an adventure. The goal is taking down Dracula and his minions. Do so, be agile, climb, jump, dispatch enemies quickly and solve puzzles. The games ‘in series’ are fairly quick to play/playthrough. The older games, in my opinion are a little less forgiving unless you’ve built up a toolkit on ‘how to solve’ the enemy ‘ai’ (enemy IQ, or artificial intelligence).

Additionally, my two cents, like the Mario (watch any early SNES/NES even PS or XBox speed-run, this will help to show specifically enemy IQ or ai), most of the early games have patterns and similar enemy IQ, just find the pattern and dispatch of the enemies accordingly.

Next, thanks for the coverage @lordkayoss, love the video and voice over, this was one of the first games I completed back in 1994 or 1995.

Warhammer 40K 2 Video

A Warhammer Third-Person View

@theRadBrad Warhammer Play-through

Video – Watch Warhammer 40K 2 Video

Warhammer 40K 2 Video, @theradbrad’s play-through by Saber Interactive September 2024 release.

Let’s start with some context, I was hoping that @theRadBrad would cover this game, not a typical third-person shooter, or action RPG played on his channel. Boy, was I right about this one.

I can’t believe that 40K Space Marine 2 turned out to be another huge title fro the year. That’s Elden Ring DLC, HellBlade 2, Stellar Blade, Black Myth, Ronin and Warhammer all in one year. There are certainly others (games) in the mix here that I’m skipping over…

Video Backlog, DLC’s and Other Channel Specifics

Not done on purpose, just highlighting the games in his backlog viewable this year. For what was a big year back when Elden Ring was release, you have a DLC that could take up the mantle, a Warhammer game and Black Myth Wukong. I’m blown away, gobsmacked by the quality of games being produced and featured on his channel.

Rewind to 2022 – 2023, where we saw the release of Spiderman 2, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, RE (Remakes), Hogwarts, Alan Wake 2, and more. There are some serious games there* in that lineup, but not all of them. For one gamer and content creator, Elden Ring and God of War Ragnarok stand out… However, there are still a far fewer titles in the drop zone for 2024, such as Assassin’s Creed Shadow, which promises to shake up the samurai class.

What Is Next

More games are on the horizon, here in the 4th quarter. For me, I’m considering the Metroid-vania style The Last Faith or Blasphemous 2… Alternatively, I might revisit God of War or return to Elden Ring, despite being less than 1% complete after over 24 hours of gameplay. It’s crazy to think that less than 1% of the game has been completed.

Super Punch Out Video

Full Play-through

@lordkayoss Does Super Punch Out Boxing in 4k

Video – Watch Super Punch Out

Super Punch Out  Video, @lordkayoss’s play-through by Nintendo from 1994.

Quick Take

First, I never had a chance to play Super Punch Out, so this is a game I’ve always wanted to play. Shout out to @lordkayoss for putting this video together, as I mentioned this game was on the bucket list per se, as I’ve always wanted to play the game… goal being playing another boxing game as successful as the original Mike Tyson’s Punch Out! I think Kayoss does a fantastic job presenting another epic play-through. @Zallard1’s blindfold runs are epic, making Super Punch Out boxing lore even more exciting. Kayoss guides us through the double circuit, with the first circuit serving as a warm-up or training round.

The second circuit features CPU AI that changes offensive and defensive strategies, unlike the first circuit. It’s great to see Super Punch Out back on the list of videos to watch.

I recommend checking out @lordKayoss’s play-through. Additionally, @Zallard1 showcases a blindfolded run of Nintendo Punch-Out!! Wii Boxing. Yes, blindfolded. Check that out.

Stay tuned I’ll cover @LordKayoss Super Castlevania IV play-through in the next few weeks. A quick shout out to Kayoss for the Super Punch Out coverage. Watch this video and more on Super Punch out Video on YouTube YouTube or explore other videos in the video category.

Steelrising Video

Let’s Play Steelrising

@FightinCowboy Souls-like RPG Video

Video – Steelrising Video, A Let’s Play

Steelrising Video is available now, @fightinCowboy play-through (Let’s Play), of Steelrising…

Quick Take

Grab a copy of Steelrising, Steelrising is an older Souls-like action RPG game (first released in September. 2022) by Nacon. A steampunk-souls-like game an epic robot fighter… This is a “buy” for me and also on the short “buy” list.

Like other souls-like games, be prepare for a slog, a challenging and epic experience. While some gamer pros (content creators) make it look easy, it is not.

I’m not sure how realistic an edited video, showing a few blockers here and there (the videos are edited down for compression, length etc.), so take that warning for what it is worth. I like the live or like live Let’s plays as for me I can gain a better understanding of the game and it is going to be extreme challenge.

I’m also prepare for the impassable, and impossible at times seemingly impossible; but those obstacles will eventually be overcome. I anticipate that some farming time will be necessary, so it’s best to plan for that now. This preparation will make it easier when you find yourself relying on the internet for help. Let’s dive in! A big shout out to @fightinCowboy for both the walk-through and Let’s Play videos… these will surely come in handy soon.

Black Myth Wukong Video

Wukong Walk-Through

@theRadBrad Black Myth Wukong

Video – Watch Black Myth Wukong

Black Myth Wukong Video, @theRadBrad walk-Through.

Quick Take

Black Myth Wukong is a new action RPG by Game Science. At first glance, this is a fantastic game! I picked this up late December to have a go. Thanks to @theRadBrad, I was able to see multiple endings and whatnot. The level of game play, development, story etc. is all top tier. I would say, this game is everything; this game is off the charts. Secondly, the video quality of the content is superb. Honestly, I don’t keep up with upcoming games or what’s set to launch. That’s why I rely on content creators like Brad, Kayoss, and the NES Play-through folks who are experts at what they do and great to have around.

Next, I have no idea what’s to come in the gaming world, but if this game is just a small glimpse of what’s to come; graphics, story, voice acting, performance all working together. Above all, the realism is there, but with a good mix of Chinese lore. The lore here might be worth spending a little more time on for someone who wants more information. It’s like Warhammer in the fact that the backstory is worth poking around, exploring and watching other video where it makes sense.

RE DLC Shadow Of Rose Video

Classic Resident Evil Horror Survival DLC

@Shikkaro RE DLC Shadow Of Rose Video

Lab Work – RE DLC Shadow Of Rose Video – Full Walkthrough

Embark on a horror venture, with the Resident Evil Shadow Of Rose, a classic RE expansion that will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout the game.

Hot Take

Tough game to pick up and roll with, Shadow of Rose is a great Resident Evil horror expansion. Historical play, skills and experience goes far (will carry the average player beyond the puzzle intricacies, resilience and boss difficulty) in this DLC. Shikkaro takes us deep into the hearts and minds of the Resident Evil series with the Shadows of Rose DLC. The Village at the time, won Game of the Year and sold more than 10 million copies/units (to date). Shadow of Rose, being a DLC, is not just a boring update. Play as the Ethan’s daughter (Rose) and conquer The Village DLC game.

Although the game is not new, it delivers a cold surreal terror within Rose’s world filled with twists, turns, evil bosses, soul reaper zombie types, the mold and jump scares. The nearly 4 hour DLC run will keep you on edge, as you run, jump, solve puzzles and navigate through the depths of the village underground. The expansion was made available in October 2022 and is playable on PC, PS4/PS5, and Xbox series console.

Even if you’re not a RE expert, the game stays true to the franchise’s roots and offers an epic storyline reminiscent of the early survival horror games. If you enjoy the game, survival first-person shooters or the video created by @shikkaro, show some love by subscribing or checking out at – https://shirrako-store.creator-spring.com -creator merch online.

Lastly, thank you for the coverage @shirrako! I loved the video, the game play, the full play-through without commentary or frame share.

The Last Faith Video

Last Faith Game Play-Through

@fightinCowboy Conquers The Last Faith The Last Faith Video

Lab Work – PlayStack Limited – The Last Faith Coverage

The Last Faith Video, is a new classic mashup with a ‘metroid-vania’ backdrop and game treatment; more importantly carrying on the modern metroid-vania style games.

Hot Take

This might be one of those games that stick around, like Blasphemous, Blasphemous II, Metroid or Castlevania. I love this game, the feel, the Metroid-vania style, the back story, and the battles. It’s a ‘buy’ for me and is on my list to be purchased. With so many titles, games out there, from PC games to PS5, The Last Faith is the kind of game I want on my console when its time to get serious. Although MLB The Show, Elden Ring and NHL get most of the playing time. The Last Faith will be next in line, hence the ‘buy’ recommendation. I’m a big fan of these 2D world games, horizontal maps, etc., very nostalgic for my childhood. For what it is worth, these games have always landed on my buy list. We didn’t have many games, but the ones we had like Mega Man, Super Mario, and Castlevania, you get the picture.

If not, The Last Faith is another title to add to the list of buys, when you can or if you can. For some to these games I resort to the expert(s), like @FightinCowboy to fill in. The Last Faith, check out Cowboy’s coverage, the game playlist, his livestreams, and more @fightinCowboy’s playlists.

Elden Ring Video

Play-through:Elden Ring

@theRadBrad PS5 Walkthrough

Lab Work – Elden Ring via @RadBrad

Thank you to @theRadBrad for the Elden Ring Video. This is super helpful for those like myself who are struggling with the game difficulty.

Quick Take

See my full review, sneak peek into the World Of Elden Ring – Elden Ring Review. I can’t express more thanks and appreciation for the online coverage and play-through content @theRadBrad and @fightinCowboy, for the hours you both put into covering the game as content creators.

Quick excerpt: “Let’s continue the Elden Ring Review, in my opinion, as a viewer, Elden Ring tops the charts. Elden Ring is definitely at the peak across the board. I’m not a hardcore gamer, but I follow games closely, both new and vintage. I wanted to share my thoughts on one of the top two games of all times. Elden Ring is top tier, especially in today’s market, 1. it excels in epic graphics, 2. fluidity of in game fighting 3. play and combat, narration and voice talent (check) and 4. game difficulty.

After playing for under 20 hours at home, I haven’t even come close to 1% completion. Shoutout to @theRadBrad who makes this SoulsBorne like EldenRing game look easy; it’s not. I’ve learned that the hard way, farming is key to success, similar to D&D where XP and complementary skills are crucial. It’s been a while, more than 6 months since I’ve played D&D. Maybe it’s time to start up a solo, old school D&D game again.”


Finally, skills are needed. The skills needed to complete the main game is a very high bar. Same for the DLC, both  are tremendous dose of skill of which I don’t have (yet). More over, thanks to you both, it might be possible one day.

Dark Souls 3 Video

Let’s Pay, Watch Game The Souls Play-through

@FightinCowboy Does Dark Souls 3 Video

Lab Work – Dark Souls 3 Video

Watch the Dark Souls 3 (DS3) video, this is an epic game in the SoulsBorne genre.

Quick Take

Dark Souls is a redefining and continuation of the FromSoftware and Bandai teams. Got to love a good Dark Souls video game series, specifically for 3rd iteration… Dark Souls is another iteration of the famed (in my opinion) FromSoftware and Hidetaka Miyazaki.

I think it’s fair to say, FromSoftware has created some very good games such as the Dark Souls series. Including the Bloodborne series, Armored Core, Demon’s Souls and Sekiro games. There are more, but I wanted to mention the game titles and series I know of from a historical perspective.

Honestly, it’s a tall order to beat the developers and dev teams in terms of game design, difficulty, and epic adventures and so on. Dark Souls is it’s own “beast” of a game series and I hope the same direction and game play carries on through the Elden Ring series, *which seems to be the case with the recent release of Elden Ring DLC – Shadow of the ErdTree.

I should preface my comments as I am a viewer, so please take my comments with a grain of salt. I can only speak from a viewers perspective as I just can’t put together a good Elden Ring run to save my virtual backside. In terms of Buy or Pass, Dark Souls 3 is a “future buy” or wishlist item for me… I wouldn’t belabor the point.

Rust Video

William J’s Rust Videos

Rust @WillJum

Video – Rust Video with @willjum

Rust might be one of the easiest games to ‘passively’ watch. Rust is one of those games that requires hours, experience, the grind and farming skills.

Hot Take

Rust videos are a daily ‘consumable’, typically on one of the many windows open, playing non-stop. I find the videos helpful for those downtimes, during break times or creative block. These content creators spend thousands of hours to create these videos, edit and post. This @willjum Rust video is no different. The quality of gameplay and video creation is excellent, something to work towards for those out there looking to break into the content creator world.

Passively watch as @willjum tackles Rust. By the way, there are plenty of games in @willjum’s playlist, so don’t miss out on those… Great content.

I use the term passive because time is fleeting… I don’t have the required 1000+ hours to keep pace with the likes of Willy J and other Rust content creators. As a passive viewer… that’s what I have for now. It’s tough to construct a narrative, starting out a piece highlight such and such game when the writer is a viewer or fan, just like you perhaps. Sometimes that’s just how it goes in the gaming world. There is never a dull moment, never seems to be enough time in the day to perfect my skills in Rust, especially with new games. like Elden Ring and Spiderman 2, and Assassin’s Creed Mirage creeping into view. The list of games for a recent PS5 recipient goes on and on. I’m not complaining though, more the merrier. We use to wait quarters for new NES games. So it comes with the territory. So, take this article as it is, and that is marketing @willjum and Rust game!

Let’s stop there, @willjum, great content and a great game to cover. Watch this video and others Rust videos like it on YouTube Logo YouTube or check out our other videos found under the video category on our website.

Baseball Video

Play NES Baseball

@worldOfLongplay Nintendo’s Baseball

Lab Work – Baseball Video

It has been sometime since I posted any NES content. Let’s do NES Baseball.

Hot Take

The NES baseball game (baseball video) may have been the first real games I played as a kid outside Mario or Frogger, Alex The Kid, Shinobi (which might have come later), Donkey Kong and RType? Depending on the day, Baseball was my favorite game. Perhaps winning contributed to its likability as well. It was an easy game to pick up and play any time, especially on weekends.

Thanks to @worldoflongplays, the channel has provided us with a play-through of NES Baseball. Bases Loaded, Super Bases Loaded, Griffey Jr (SNES), and MLB The Show. I have spent very little time spent on baseball games. Therefore, it is fair to say that NES Baseball ranks higher on my list of favorite baseball games. Maybe MLB, Baseball, RBI Baseball, Griffey Jr. could be a tight number 2. Regardless of the ranking, if I had the chance to play it again, I would. It would be a ‘buy” for me if I had a way to play it (outside of an emulator or online keyboard (WASDX) game. I would usually choose either the A’s or Cubs, as others had the first choice mainly. Eventually those two teams became my favorite teams. New favorite teams discovered on MLB The Show ’23, check out the teams, the up’s and down’s and review; MLBThe Show 23 Review.

NES F-1 Race Video

Let’s Race, F-1 Race

@WorldOfLongplays Formula 1 Race

Lab Work – Break Out The Controllers, NES F-1 Race Video

Another great option for you racing fans out there, Race F-1, F-1 Race.

Quick Take

If my memory serves me well, this game was difficult to say the least. Rad Racer was a slightly easier, more palatable back in the 80’s. Rad Racer has an F-1 car as well. But, F-1 Race was more indy car/f-1 car friendly for those of you who enjoy track racing. Also, if you can get your hands on this game, it’s a lot of fun. Turns were out of control, at least for me, probably the more difficult part of the game. Again, this is 40 years ago, so, enjoy if you can get your hands on F-1 Race today. Refresh your memory with @worldOfLongplays play-through.

It has been years since I last played F-1 Race and it may be many more before I pick it up again! I want to highlight the level of difficulty in this game. Similar to Excitebike, where I struggled with concept of temperature and engine overheating. or landing a fighter jet in Top Gun, which in both cases are critical concepts to progress in the game. So, once again, it took me sometime as a child to figure those out. Unfortunately, landing in Top Gun never really panned out nor improved. F-1 Race is different in that the game was difficult so multifaceted, multiple areas for improvement.

F-1 had similar mechanics to Rad Racer, with turns and speed being key components. I believe where I struggled most was in putting together a solid run without being distracted by other race cars. Those cars always wiped me out on the turns. Therefore, for this article it is more cathartic to recall the frustration experienced while playing this racing game. This is probably the main reason why I avoided other racing games like RC Pro Am, Super Off Road, and Excitebike, particularly those with tight, hairpin turns such as F-1 Racer and MotoGP. These were all valid reasons, possibly just due to being to young at the time.

As a young gamer (in hindsight), I’m glad I kept at it because most of the racing games turned into some of my favorites: Rad Racer, Super Off Road, Excitebike, Mario Kart, FZero… taking us down memory lane.

Double Dribble Video

Let’s Play Some Hoops, Double Dribble Basketball

Jump Into An Instant NES Classic

Lab Work – Double Dribble Video

Starting with Double Dribble, watch the Double Dribble video which might be one of my favorite basketball games on the NES console.

Quick Take

Let’s start with the greatest games: NBA Jam, Jordan vs Bird, Bulls vs Blazers, and Double Dribble… While all of these titles are great games, Double Dribble to me is where it all began for me. It was the undercover Jordan vs Bird basketball game.

Game play, now some 40 years later, I will assume the Chicago Ox, New York Eagles, Los Angeles Breakers and Boston Frogs were meant to represent the Bulls, Knicks, Lakers and Celtics, respectively. But you know how copyright and naming rights work, licensing was clearly an issue, it wasn’t until the 2000’s with NCAA and NIL that it came to a head. Assumption yes, some unknown console company wants to use professionally licensed team names ‘Name In Likeness’ with the dough? Assumption is probably spot on.

My go to teams were Boston and Chicago for obvious reasons, as they represented the classic Bird vs Jordan era. So, for those of in your 40s and older, you should know the lore behind a Bulls Celtic game. That’s Double Dribble in a nutshell.

Perhaps I should include Double Dribble on the All Time Greats list for basketball. Watch this video and others like it on YouTube Logo YouTube or check out our other videos found under the video category on our website. You decide!
