Shop X-Arcade: https://genxgrownup.com/xgaming BurgerTime has long been considered one of the best arcade conversions available for the ColecoVision, but after spending some time with it on Friday Plays, I discovered something I wasn't expecting. Not only does this home version faithfully recreate the classic Data East arcade game, but in some ways it may actually control better than the original. The movement feels precise, the ladder navigation is predictable, and the overall experience is remarkably polished for a game released over 40 years ago. #retrogaming #arcade #burgertime #genxgrownup - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com

Shop Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox Some arcade games emulate beautifully at home… until you try to control them. In this video, we’re taking a look at the new FightBox R10 Dual Flight Stick, a specialty arcade controller designed for games where the controls are part of the identity of the experience. This is not the controller I’d grab first for Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, or Street Fighter — but for games like Robotron: 2084, Smash TV, Battlezone, Assault, and Tron, having dual sticks, triggers, and a spinner can make all the difference. We helped FightBox design this controller to solve a very specific arcade problem: those unusual classics that never feel quite right on a standard joystick, keyboard, mouse, or gamepad. So let’s put it through its paces and see how close it gets to the original arcade feel. - SHOP Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 The Toolbox 01:25 The Solution 02:08 Hardware Tour 05:19 Robotron 06:52 Assault 08:20 Battlezone 09:24 Black Widow 10:17 After Burner 11:21 Arkanoid 12:54 Tempest 14:07 Lost Tomb 15:28 Tron 19:03 Discs of Tron 21:04 Summary

The CULTIC live playthrough continues as we try to finish off The Chapel boss stage and deal with the massive tank enemy standing between us and whatever nightmare comes next. This retro-inspired FPS has already thrown cultists, crypts, mines, and all kinds of chaos at us — but now we’re apparently fighting heavy machinery in a chapel. Seems reasonable. Join the GXG crew live as we push through another round of boomer shooter mayhem, panic reloads, questionable aim, and old-school FPS carnage. Come hang out, chat with us, and help me survive the Chapel! #CULTIC #RetroFPS #BoomerShooter #HorrorFPS #LiveStream #PCGaming #IndieGames #RetroGaming #GenXGrownUp #GXG

After last week’s rough outing with Strategy X, I needed a palate cleanser—and Beamrider came highly recommended. More than 40 years after missing it the first time, I take Activision’s 1984 Atari 2600 shooter for a spin, discover why you can’t simply shoot everything in sight, and see whether this Intellivision-born classic earns its reputation. - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv
