Happy holidays to you all and a final video from me this year. Since I forgot to shill my channel in my script or video I'd just like to say if you like what you see please engage with the video and my channel to help stimulate my fragile ego.

My Blood Omen Retrospective is currently being edited. I recently watched a music video for a song called One Night In Tokyo by the amazing beast in black and the art style was so like Flashback that I had to dive back in. This video is the result of that trip down memory lane into the realm of what I consider true retro gaming.

So here we'll be looking at Flashback and Fade To Black. These two games were developed by Delphine software in France. Flashback is one of the stand out narrative platform games from the Sega Megadrive / Sega Genisis and Amiga 500 while it's sequel, Fade To Black, was a janky but heartfelt attempt at creating a unique 3rd person action game for DOS and the PSX.
So let's dive in and take a journey with Conrad Hart as he fights evil shape shifting Aliens to save the Earth in this science fiction 16bit classic. Sure hope I got enough key words in this description.

$The Legend Of Alessa Gillespie. A fairly deep dive into Silent Hill 1 and 3. Hello and welcome back to another overly long talk about an old playstation 2 game made by me, Arkham666. If you like the content please remember to like, share, subscribe and comment to help the channel grow and help my fragile ego make it to the next mild dopamine hit. Today we are taking a look at the story of a young girl named Alessa Gillespie, a fantatical cult and a quiet little resort town called Silent hill. When Konami tasked team Silent with the impossible task of creating a horror game to compete with Capcom’s Resident Evil with only a fraction of the budget, nobody expected them to succeed. What they created, however, was a horror experience that was not only equal too but maybe even surpassed Capcom’s survival horror masterpiece. The first Silent hill game is a gem of the playstation one era and told an incredible tale of a man trying to find his daughter in a literal nightmare. With the game being a massive success the public and of course Konami wanted more. With the advent of the Playstation 2, sequels that could take advantage of its much greater power were very much on the cards. Silent Hill 2 took things in a different direction to tackle some difficult issues with continuing such a complicated story but 3 is the direct sequel many fans wanted. So let’s take control of Heather, a young teenage girl trapped in a nightmare of her own, and walk with her once again through the streets of that quiet forgotten town near Toluca Lake. Once more ladies and gentlemen. Welcome back to Silent Hill.
