Last Classics: Fugitive Hunter: War on Terror (PS2)

fugitive hunter war on terrorEncore/Black Ops entertainment are no less than geniuses. By tapping into America’s post-9/11 desire to kill Osama Bin Laden and assorted other brown and black people, Fugitive Hunter deserves a special place in every PS2/PS3 owner’s collection. Playing as Jake Seaver, a former Navy Seal turned bounty hunter, you pursue the FBI’s 10 most wanted fugitives throughout the world. You run through various global hotspots blasting at anything that gets in your way. When you get to the target in question, the game switches to a side by side fighting game in order to take down the criminal ALIVE. That’s right folks, although you’ll blast dozens of his henchmen to pieces, the game teaches humanitarian values and civil rights by having players beat their opponent down with kung fu moves and bring them in alive! No matter who you’re facing, all the bosses seem to know the same style of Kung Fu, even Bin laden!

lmrm2007Developer EV Interactive (whose staff is made up of people who worked on JetFighter and Decent no less) and publisher Vivendi Universal are no less than genius.

The soundtrack features the music of bluegrass legends, The Outlaw Family Band! Forget about Burnout, Midnight Club, Forza, Gran Turismo, Mario Kart, and every other racing game! It’s all about LMRM2k7! This game should be on the Xbox Originals, but shockingly, it isn’t! Click after the jump for hints and tips as well as our exclusive powet interview with Mr. Mojangles himself!

Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions Trailer


GameSpot has the first look at Activision’s newest Spider-Man game, which has the wall crawler going all Jerry O’Connell on us and traveling to alternate dimensions.
The above trailer shows us the “noir” dimension, which looks to me more like Batman with Spider-Man’s powers. Since we now have regular Spider-Man, and dark Spider-Man, it will be interesting to see what the next 2 dimensions end up being. Thoughts or theories? Leave a comment. I’m putting a dollar on Marvel Zombies and Anime Spider-Man myself.

Powet Alphabet: M is for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers in the Megazord Cockpit

Since the alphabet is the building block of our language, the Powet Alphabet is the building block of what makes us geeks.

The Might Morphin Power RangersIn the summer of 1993, a wondrous new phenomenon began with Mighy Morphin’ Power Rangers. This is a show which, in a way, continues today in vastly inferior shows also carrying the name “Power Rangers”. Here I will be discussing only “Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers”, which is what the show was called for it’s first 3 seasons, when the Power Rangers wore the first iconic uniforms they did. This spans the era of the Dinozords, the Thunderzords and finally the Ninja Zords, which includes the first movie. It stops when Power Rangers Zeo starts, but it’s best not to dwell on such things…

A Team of Teenagers With AttitudeThe concept of the show was simple. When the Earth is threatened, 5 teenagers are given the ability to metamorphosise or “Morph” into … well teenagers in spandex of the same colour as the only colour they have in their wardrobe, which gives them the incredible power of dinosaurs and weapons which they use to fight their enemies. They use these to protect the city of Angel Grove, which is always the target of attacks. Each week consists of them dealing with some life problem, facing off against a monster, good guys morph, bad guy is grown, good guys call giant dinosaur robots, good guys win. Rinse, repeat.
