The feud between Amiga Power and Team 17 got pretty heated, but there's a bit more to it than simply AP giving a couple of their games some bad scores and the studio getting mad about it. This vid runs through a lot of things that connect -- AP's other disputes with companies and magazines including next door neighbours Amiga Format, highlights from the legendary AP2, flamewars from Usenet...th...

Teddy Hart is one of wrestling's most controversial figures, but this video's mainly focused on one ridiculous night of many: The time in ROH where, after a match, he decided that he was going to do ridiculous flips until he quite literally threw up in the ring. Charming. We've got juicy backstage details, surprisingly calm voices of reason, legendary Internet posts, a proper real-life fight an...

We've got 10 more cool coin-ops from this awesome arcade year, and a lot of them are more important than people may think. There's the legendary Mr. Do!, Berzerk's sequel Frenzy, Anteater and Nibbler, a trio of classic European games incluing Bagman and Blue Print...really, it's a pretty strong selection, despite also having Abscam and Cinematronics' terrible Jack the Giant Killer. Enjoy!

At TNA's Turning Point 2004, Elix Skipper absolutely wowed everyone by walking on top of a cage and performing a hurricanrana on Chris Harris -- a move that had never been seen before, we are very unlikely to ever see again. This is the story of the move, how it came about, and just what made it so unbelievable.

One of the greatest shoot 'em up companies of all time, the list of Toaplan classics is huge: Fire Shark, Truxton, Zero Wing, Twin Cobra, Batsugun, Slap Fight, Grind Stormer...we're covering them all and more!

It's a video all about APW's King of the Indies 2001 - basically, the tournament that gave birth to Ring of Honor. A group of young wrestlers including the likes of Christopher Daniels, AJ Styles, American Dragon, Samoa Joe and Low Ki get together for a weekend of action in California and tear the house down, although it's not a show without any drama. Enjoy!

The 1980 vid went down very well, so here we go with the next one! We've got 10 more intriguing and occasionally obscure titles here - there's Jump Bug, one of the year's more important platformers, the most notorious Donkey Kong bootleg that actually has a very complex story behind it, a whole load of Pac-Man hacks and games that were heavily inspired by Namco's behemoth, the unreleased vector...

It's a new series of sorts, one where I highlight arcade games from a certain year -- not the titles that absolutely everybody knows, but ones that may just not be too well remembered nowadays or in the West, games that are more influential than people realise, and of course some strange obscurities. We've got a couple of big guns in this selection of course with the likes of Crazy Climber, Spa...

There were so many requests on the last video for one dedicated to Low Ki, and naturally I'm not going to ignore them. Ki is a very talented and influential wrestler who hasn't had the sort of career he should have, and really that's down to him -- this vid goes into the various reasons why, whether it's being too stiff, being hard to work with, burning bridges, having tantrums...the lot. And o...

It's a new little games video, and I just had to finally do a video about Sega's I'm Sorry from 1985, a strange and beautiful arcade title. You play as a disgraced and very real politician, you collect gold bars, and you try to avoid the likes of Giant Baba, Michael Jackson and Carl Lewis -- not to mention a giant barrel filled with pork. What's not to love?

It's another big video, one that's covering every arcade game released by the original Irem! There's 68 titles here, covering 1979 to 1994, and there's so many good games - the big classics like R*Type, Kung-Fu Master, and Moon Patrol, but so many excellent lesser known titles too. One of the best arcade game companies of them all. Enjoy!

Today's video looks at 3 incidents of Puroresu prickishness, they're all from the world of Junior wrestling, and...well, they certainly aren't all as bad as each other -- they range from kind of cool to utterly monstrous.

Koji Kitao could have been one of the biggest stars in Sumo history, but then he screwed that up. From there, he could have been one of the biggest stars in Puroresu history, but then he screwed that up too. This 6"7 350 pounder certainly deserves a look, as he had the world at his feet and he would have done a lot better if he weren't such an arrogant prick. Enjoy!

It's a new video! Today, we're looking at all of Capcom's 80's arcade games. Obviously there's some absolute classics here -- Final Fight, Commando, Ghosts 'n Goblins, 1942 and so many more, but there's other lesser known games that shouldn't be slept on and for once, damn near every game here is a good 'un. You can hardly go wrong with Capcom! Enjoy.

I've done vids like this for the Amiga, but here's one for the Speccy...the 20 games that scored 10% or lower from the big 3 mags -- Your Sinclair, Crash, and Sinclair User. Some of these titles are already well known as terrible games, while others aren't quite as infamous -- and the worst one is right down there with Sqij.

Sabu perhaps never quite got the credit he deserved for changing wrestling in his lifetime, which was a shame. This video shows the incredible impact that he had back in the early 90's through the time he spent in FMW, various matches on the indies and a bit of ECW -- there's so much that would have been completely different about wrestling if he'd not been around.

NOW WITH ADDED VIDEO!
This is a video about the moments where wrestling goes wrong...botches, if you will. I've been curious about the stories behind some of these rather wild spots, and I've got 6 here from TNA, WCW, and WWF/E. Nothing shown here resulted in any majorly serious/career-threatening injuries, although it may make you wince in parts. Enjoy!

Finally, Jumbo Tsuruta gets his own video. This video covers Tsuruta's career from 1973 to 1984, highlighting several important matches he had with American legends -- Jack Brisco, Terry Funk, Harley Race, Ric Flair, Bruiser Brody and Nick Bockwinkel are all very much featured. Jumbo is one of my very favourite wrestlers, so hopefully you enjoy this one. :)

Here we go! A vid covering the history of Stan Hansen and Kenta Kobashi, going through the singles matches they had against each other between 1990 and 1996. There's a lot of classics here, and obviously a lot of intense action, but this might just be the best way of looking at the early years of Kenta Kobashi -- by looking at the man who was surely his toughest opponent in the years before he ...

Yes, this video is about that Atari 2600 game. The one that often gets called the worst game ever and all that. E.T. gets covered an awful lot...but that doesn't mean it's always covered well. Far from it -- and the same applies to the events surrounding it, specifically the video game crash in North America. Now that it's unfortunately easier than ever to produce complete garbage about this ga...
