Splatterhouse

Released in 1988 by Namco, Splatterhouse was one of the most bloody, grotesque and violent coin-op games ever made. Even by today's standards, it's primitive 2D graphic displays of blood and gore are enough to traumatize a 10 year old child. The object of the game was to guide the bulky, hockey mask wearing, hero, "Rick" through several levels of a horrid mansion in order to rescue his girlfriend Jennifer who mysteriously disappeared into it's hellish depths. The game play is similar to old beat'm ups like Kung-Fu and Vigilante. Although never released outside of Japan, a slightly edited console port did make it to the TurboGrafx-16. With it's intense horror theme, creepy music and fun beat'em up action, Splatterhouse's popularity lead to two sequels released for Sega's Megadrive/Genesis consoles.

Rick: "I've been playing Splatterhouse on my TG16 and now I have to sleep with the lights on!"

Jennifer: "If you think that's scarey, you should play the arcade version!!"

Psychosis

A difficult, side-scrolling, 2D shooter/shmup set in a bizarre fantasy world in which the player must guide a star fighter while destroying strange enemies and weird end-bosses along the way. Psychosis (Paranoia in Japan) was made in 1990 by Naxat Soft and released for the PC-Engine/TurboGrafx-16. Due to the the TurboGrafx-16's unpopularity, Psychosis became a sleeper hit.

Gamer A: "How do I get the butterflies to show up at the boss scene in Psychosis?"

Gamer B: "You have to protect the worm from the ants."

Snotrod

Improved Definition: Snotrod is one of the four young street racers from the Disney/Pixar film, Cars. He is a 1971 Pro Street Plymouth 'Cuda, sporting a custom grill, "Hemi-orange" paint, phantom decals, Torque Thrust D rims, redline tires, a large blower with an over-sized air scoop, Zoomie exhaust pipes and orange under glows. Also his body style closely resemble that of the new Dodge Challenger concept car. Snotrod normally lags a few car lengths behind his pack buddies; Boost, DJ and Wingo to allow braking distance for his super-charged sneezes which tend to add on an uncontrollable burst of speed.
