Namco’s Rolling Thunder was the "John Wick" of the 80s. It introduced a cover system way before it was cool, letting you duck into doors to dodge bullets and reload. The hero, Albatross, is also a fashion icon, fighting a secret society of hooded cultists 🔫⚡

An absolute legend of gaming history turns 40 this year: Gunship by Microprose was released in 1986. For many, many years it remained the undisputed benchmark for helicopter combat simulations. It was universally praised for its graphics, weapons, sound, controls, realistic physics, and documentation (the famously long and historically accurate MicroProse manuals, this one was over 80 pages long). You fly an AH-64 Apache and can play endlessly in the career mode (no classic "end game scenario"), reaching a rank as high as Brigadier General. By the end of the 80s it had sold over half a million copies, making it one of MicroProse's most successful games of the decade.

In Turkey, a heartwarming moment took place in a butcher shop… 🥺 A cat was sent by its mother to go shopping for the very first time. It was its first little mission, but it didn’t know what to choose and felt a bit confused and unsure 😌🐾 Noticing this, the butcher kindly stepped in and helped by showing the meats one by one, making it easier for the little cat to decide 🥹 In the end, the kitten chose what it wanted and got its meat 🥩 This simple but pure moment warmed the hearts of everyone who witnessed it 🫠❤️

The Dig (LucasArts, 1995) didn't achieve the same impact or cult status as Maniac Mansion, Monkey Island, or Indiana Jones, but I devoured it back in the day. In terms of immersion, it was one of LucasArts' best games ever and a milestone of 90s adventure games. It was highly praised by magazines but lost points for high difficulty, making it one of the era's toughest adventure games - and thus diverging from LucasArts' usual style which was usually on the easy/moderate level of difficulty. The visuals and music of The Dig remain incredible, even 30 years later. The large sprites, the amazing choice and composition of colours, the movie like vibe - I found this one to stand out and always wondered why unlike other advneture games this one never got a sequel.

Ecstatica is one of the first 3D survival horror games, and it was pretty advanced for its time. You can play as either a man or a woman, and it features great graphics, atmosphere, and cool mechanics, like the werewolf (not an ape!) stalking you through the town. It's very brutal and has a twisted sense of humor. Really good game.

Double Dragon (1987) – who was a fan? You play as brothers Billy and Jimmy Lee, punching, kicking, and brawling through city slums, factories, and hideouts to rescue Billy's girlfriend Marian from the Black Warriors gang. 80s games didn't have the deepest and most complex of stories but let's be honest, who cared? To this day, one of the best beat 'em ups in co-op mode. The big character sprites, badass soundtrack, and the ability to pick up dropped weapons like baseball bats, whips, and knives made it an excellent game.

International Karate Plus (often just called IK+) was the sequel to the 1986 hit International Karate. Once again, Archer Maclean was behind another masterpiece from the golden era of 80s fighting games. The 1980s were easily the high point for karate and kung-fu style games, heavily influenced by popular martial arts movies of that decade. The three-player mode was an interesting twist on the standard 1v1 fights. It often led to hilarious 2v1 gang-ups when playing with friends. As always with Archer Maclean’s games, the music and graphics were excellent, the controls were tight, and the gameplay was simple but very addictive. I’m always torn between the original from 1986 and this sequel from 1988; I just can’t decide which is better. So, one point each - FIGHT!!

In terms of immersion, it was one of LucasArts' best games ever and a true milestone of 90s adventure games. It was highly praised by magazines but lost points for (too) high difficulty, making it one of the era's toughest adventures - and thus diverging from LucasArts' typical style which was more on the easy/moderate level of difficulty. I wasn't able to finish it without a walkthrough from one of the game magazines back then (Internet wasn't really a mainstream thing yet).

This game is literally "do you know ball" the video game. Developed by arcsys, this game laid the groundwork for what FighterZ would become, and even has a bunch of moves that would end up in FighterZ. The roster selection for the time felt perfect, and this was one of the first games you could play as Super Saiyan Blue Goku as he'd just been recently released in the movie. Extreme Butoden is something special, and I have very fond memories of playing it on a long road trip with my best friend. I highly recommend checking it out!

A dog had been confined in a very small, cramped, filthy iron cage for a long time. Its life was nothing but confinement, coldness, and deprivation. Thanks to Bruno and the rescue team, it was finally saved. 💖✨ The moment it was released, the dog’s happiness was beyond words: it ran and jumped around joyfully, exploring the wide-open space, looking at its new home, soft bed, and clean water… It was so excited it didn’t know what to do first, running in circles and wagging its tail nonstop, clearly showing the joy of being free and loved.

From being forced to breed with its own sibling before it was even a year old, to giving birth to puppies and then losing every single one of them on the very same day, and being abandoned by its owner the next day. At that point, it was terrified and heartbroken. Then they rescued her 💖 People often see the happy moments they share here, but this is the other side of dog rescue work — the heartbreaking stories, the trauma, and the fear these dogs have endured before finally finding a better life.

"The Way It Is" is a song performed by the American rock band Bruce Hornsby & the Range. It was released in July 1986. The song is primarily about compassion, racial and social understanding, and beliefs and practices different from your own. It speaks of a state of complacency so deeply ingrained in its narrow-mindedness and intolerance that it seems it will never change. "That's why the line 'Oh, but don't trust them' is so important." "The Way It Is" calls on people to give to the poor and to protest against racism, white supremacy, and economic values.

It's better to burn out than to fade away... Wings (1990) was Cinemaware’s last game, and maybe their best. I know some people would pick Defender of the Crown or It Came from the Desert, but for me, Wings stood out with its great graphics, music, design, and overall feeling of immersion. The career mode and mission briefings felt like you were in an old war movie. It was also really tough, especially the dogfights. The sound effects when your plane was hit by bullets always let your heart sink a little. Cinemaware didn’t last very long, and I’ve always wondered why a studio that made so many good games couldn’t keep going. Sure, piracy was a big problem in the 80s and 90s, and that hurt everyone, not just them. Still, it’s a shame they only laste from 1986 to 1991.

The Atari 2600 launched in 1977, with the ageless classic Combat as one of its launch titles. It was based on Atari’s earlier arcade game Tank (released in 1974). In Combat, you controlled a tank, biplane, or jet and battled against another player. The gameplay was simple to grasp, yet the skill ceiling was surprisingly high. You had to carefully judge enemy movement, shot trajectories, and your own positioning to avoid getting hit. For a game that’s soon approaching 50 years old, it was remarkably advanced for its time. It remains one of the most iconic games of early gaming history. Younger generations will probably never come across it - and if they did, they’d likely laugh at its primitive graphics. But for those of us who grew up with it, Combat was one of the best two-player experiences of its era.

Exactly 40 years ago today, on February 19, 1986, this classic arcade shooter was released: Ikari Warriors You could play it in single or two-player mode. Commandos Ralf and Clark (or Paul and Vince in the North American version) mow down enemy soldiers, tanks, and helicopters, and blast their way through jungles and rivers to rescue a captive officer. It featured rotary joysticks for 360-degree aiming, limited ammo, power-ups, and the super cool drivable tanks. I played it later on my C64, but the arcade version remains the benchmark. One of the best two-player co-op games of the 80s – always a blast with my brother. I don’t remember how many quarters it took, but maybe that’s for the best…

Paul Schrader explains how 'Rolling Thunder'(1977) ended up being a fascist film: "'Rolling Thunder' (1977) was going to be my first film as a director. That film has an ironic history. I originally sold it to Larry Gordon at AIP, and then Larry moved from AIP to Columbia and took it with him, and then he left Columbia and took it to Twentieth Century Fox, made it there, and then Twentieth sold it back to AIP again and they released it. The story of 'Rolling Thunder' was really botched in the rewriting. The main character in the film was meant to be the same sort of character as Travis, with that same anti-social edge. The character, as I originally wrote him, was a Texas trash racist who had become a war hero without ever having fired a gun, and came home to confront the Texas Mexican community. All his racism from his childhood and Vietnam comes out, and at the ending of the film there’s an indiscriminate slaughter of Mexicans, meant as some kind of metaphor for American racism in Vietnam. In order to get it made at Twentieth, they insisted that that racist element be taken out, which is the equivalent of giving Travis Bickle a dog. Once you take out the perverse pathology of these characters, rather than become films about fascism they become fascist films, and that’s what happened to Rolling Thunder." ('Schrader on Schrader & other writings' edited by Kevin Jackson, 1990)

You just had to be there for ‘W.I.T.C.H.’ — one or Jetix’s best shows ever. There’s a special bond for those of us who watched the series while it was on the air & collecting the comics. The TV show was unfortunately cancelled way too early, as it was handled poorly by Disney and it could have gone for at least another season, however the comics ran for 139 issues up until 2012. I’d argue it has aged better than its contemporaries and that it was ahead of its time. Did you have any of the magazine issues?

Castlevania, known in Japan as Akumajō Dracula, turns 40 this year. It was released in 1986 for the Famicom Disk System (or NES outside of Japan). I found this game to be both highly addictive, super tough and - at times - frustrating. What can't be denied is its cult status and longevity, with the latest title of the series (Haunted Castle Revisited) being published in 2024. A brilliant platformer, if you had the skills (which I didn't). Note: Video edit is the 1987 NES version, which came after the original 1986 Famicon debut.

One of the toughest games I played as a kid was Aztec Challenge on the Commodore 64 (1983). My friend had it, and we played it nonstop until the disk was basically worn out. His dad used to brag that you fight a Pharaoh at the very end. We believed him because we never got that far! Turns out there was no Pharaoh, it was just a fun story to impress us kids. Back then, I wasn't aware that most 80s games didn’t really "end." They just looped back to the start after the last level. But at the time we never reached the end, and I'd be surprised if more than 1% did. It was one of the first games I played, and it made me rage-quit a lot. The levels looked simple, but they were brutally hard. You needed crazy fast reflexes to survive. That horrible piranha death sound still gives me flashbacks!

Maybe inspired by the synergy between the PlayStation and Namco’s arcade-compatible hardware, Sega also developed the Dreamcast and NAOMI together to make arcade-to-console ports much easier for their own games. Because of that, it wasn’t the massive leap that Model 3 had been, but it still ended up getting a huge variety of games from not only Sega, but many other companies as well. Popular titles like Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and Capcom vs. SNK 2 were also NAOMI-based games. What was disappointing, though, was the irony that Virtua Fighter 4 never came to the Dreamcast and was instead released on the PlayStation 2.
