I guess that would have come in handy. I blame society.
2014-09-25 20:21:56 +0000 UTC View PostYou really have to be impressed by the Game Boy's ability to play host to some top-notch yet generally forgotten titles. But let us not forget this one; it's much too good for that.

The more I write about Bionic Commando, the more I appreciate how advanced it was for its time. Seriously, this game was like, I dunno, the John the Baptist of NES titles. Except the beheading was rep...
