RETRO GAME OF THE YEAR:
ROBOCOP

One of my childhood favourites. Love the music, graphics, and gameplay. While it's not the arcade game (and what a cheap game that is!) the nes counterpart has a lot going for it.

I only ever managed to beat the game with the Game Genie as a kid. But last year I hunkered down and decided it was time to send Bodiker down for good. Dead or alive, it was being beat by me.

Once you get the patterns down on the bosses and know where to stand in certain areas (the last ones especially) the game isn't all that difficult.





In any event let me know in the comments section of Facebook about any NES games you've beaten in 2014. Any new favourites? Did you vindicate some long standing childhood hatred to a video game? Would keeping track of completed games and trying to top each year be something you would be interested in? Let me know.
