FEATURE: Let's Play: Pacman [NES] & Let's Play: Barker Bill's Trick Shooting [NES]

Gaming Till Dawn plays through one of the most well-known games ever as well as a lightgun NES game...


Pacman is what it is - a brilliant classic video game that is always entertaining once in a while, the NES port is my favourite of the earlier ports of the game, the Atari 2600 version is playable and it's fun but the NES port flows much more and feels a lot like the original arcade code in my opinion.

I always have this memory from high school where I would play a flash version of Pacman constantly, this was for various reasons; 1. I was extremely bored and 2. I wanted to beat all of the scores from fellow classmates, in the end I got caught and was banned from using the computers for a few weeks, either way enough of that, the gameplay can be seen below.


Onto the next game...


Secondly, we have Barker Bill's Trick Shooting - there are quite a few light gun games on the NES, I'm sure you're familiar with the likes of Duck Hunt, but Trick Shooting is my favourite. 

It's not the most difficult game in the world, but it's a lot of fun, there are three main game modes to choose from, each have very similar objectives - to shoot the objects before they leave the screen to gain maximum points, every so often they'll be a bonus target such as a giant shiny diamond, which awards you an extra life.

There is a mode that let's you play all three modes in a row, I imagine this is to see how big of a score you can get through the entire game.  Feature1

FEATURE: Let's Play: Tekken 2 [PS1]

Tekken 2 holds a very special place in my heart in terms of gaming memories, it was one of the very first PS1 games I ever played, and was also one of the first 3D games I touched too.

My Uncle had a PlayStation a few months or so after it was released I believe, and this was one of the games he had, so I used to play it for hours and hours just trying to unlock all the extra characters.

I've never been a great Tekken player (as the video might show) but it's always been a fun game to play every once in a while. Enough of my ramblings, please enjoy the let's play of the iconic Tekken 2. Feature1

FEATURE: Let's Play: Donkey Kong [NES]

This is my first let's play to an extent, I've done a lot of gameplay videos but nothing really like this. It's a quick playthrough of the classic Donkey Kong.

With just three levels, you'd expect this game to get boring really quick but it's definitely the opposite, each level can be challenging enough to keep you wanting to try again because the game is pure fun, but even if you are familiar with the levels, it's such a fantastic game to play over and over. And that's exactly what you are able to do, once you've initially beaten the three levels, you can continue to rack up a high score until you eventually get a game over.

Gaming Till Dawn proudly presents it's first Let's Play. Please note that until I am able to record commentary, only the game itself will be shown. Feature1
