Bikini Karate Babes – Gaming Flashback

There are some gaming flashbacks I look to do and I’ve got to go back and watch the video. Sometimes, however, they’re games I’ve never played and hit up youtube to see what I can find. This video review (or introduction rather) to Bikini Karate Babe’s really describes all the action. Unfortunately, many folks that read this may not speak German.

That’s okay! The video is worth a thousand words. Things to note, the guys say something to the fact that the video trailer (shown in the beginning) is “EXACTLY” like the game (being completely sarcastic). Anyone want to confess to being a Bikini Karate Babe addict?

  1. Oh boy 🙂 …

    I have absolutely no idea how to comment that.

    The first thing that came into my mind were those B or C movies where the main (female) character, dressed almost in bikinis would beat the living shit out of 120 kg bouncers.
    This game somehow captures and purifies that down to the essence: almost naked girls, weird screams and fighting.

    How did it sell? 🙂

  3. @Herr_Alien : I’m not sure how it sold but I know it’s still on their website selling in a bundle with the “making of” style DVD.

    @Jonah : I used to post when I used to have time to post. With two-to-three audio shows a week, 7 cocktail video’s and a 40+ hour a week job it gets challenging. I also like to spend time with the kids between show notes, posting video content, updating recipe wiki and managing the day-to-day for five or so websites.

Gaming Flashback: The Incredible MachineGaming Flashback: The Incredible Machine

The Incredible Machine (TiM) is a game designed and developed by Kevin Ryan and produced by Jeff Tunnel (now co-founder of GarageGames and their successful title Marble Blast Ultra on the 360 and co-founder in Dynamix makers of A-10 Tank Killer and The Red Baron). At the time, The Incredible Machine series came out of the shop known as Jeff Tunnel Productions.

Jeff Tunnel Productions published the first Incredible Machine games from 1993 to 1995 while Sierra Entertainment published all the rest of their titles all the way up to 2001. What is The Incredible Machines all about? It’s a game where you must build a series of Rube Goldberg devices in a “needlessly complex fashion” all to perform some simple tasks. That is the entire point to a Rube Goldberg device, which was originally defined as “accomplishing by extremely complex roundabout means what actually or seemingly could be done simply.”

I think everyone has seen a Rube Goldberg device, their are examples in science museums, and entire Myth Busters Episode about them, they appear in many movies (Goonies used one to open the fence to let in Chunk after he does his dance as did Doc Brown in Back to the Future to cook his breakfast and get his dog food).

Gaming Flashback: DOOMGaming Flashback: DOOM

DOOM is a PC game titlat that wasn’t initially released in stores. It was uploaded to an FTP server in the University of Wisconsin-Madison and on the Software Creations BBS on the 10th of December; released as a shareware game, people were encouraged to download and spread the game around to all their friends.

In days before social networks and the wildfire of the Internet (or high speed networking) this game still managed to spread around to everyone in the gaming community. From1993 to 1995 the title had an estimated install base of 10 million computers. We were one of them.

Granted, ten million copies were installed but most were not registered and simply remained as shareware. However, over one million copies were sold for the registered version of DOOM and this brought momentum to their next non-shareware copy of the DOOM series. The Ultimate Doom (version 1.9, including episode IV) was released, making this the first time that Doom was sold commercially in stores.

Mega Man was foundation brick in the early Nintendo consoles and a bread winner for Capcom, he was a mascot to represent a genre typically dominated by Mario.

The name Mega Man, in the 1980’s was synonymous with the word awesome. It was also synonymous with the word difficult.

A character that had so much potential you can now find him in mobile phone gaming and the virtual console in Europe.

“In the year 200X, master robot designer Dr. Thomas Light, and his assistant, Dr. Wily, worked on a project to create human-like robots with advanced intelligence.” (wikipedia) Each robot was designed to perform a specific task, Cut Man was designed to cut down trees, Guts Man is designed to pickup heavy things, Ice man for arctic exploration, etc. His assistant grew envious of Dr Light so he reprogrammed the robots to do his bidding, which was nothing but evil. Your job is to undo this evil.
