Posted under Site News, Hideo Kojima, features, weekly features, snatcher, zone of the enders



This week we are taking a look at a few of Hideo Kojima's more overlooked titles. You would think that with a name as big as his, these games would stand out just as much as the Metal Gear Solid franchise. Sadly that is not the case.

That being said, our featured game is Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner. This is one of my favorite games. It has the unrivaled cinematics you have come to grow and love from Hideo Kojima as well as enough action to keep one satisfied for months. Along with the featured game we have the featured image which is Snatcher, the acclaimed Sega CD game produced by Hideo Kojima. The featured collection is eternalblue81's collection which consists of nearly all of Hideo Kojima's games. Finally the featured hardware is the Gamecube modem. The logic behind this is because that thing is as funny as the scene in Metal Gear Solid 3 where Eva ramps the motorcycle off Revolver Ocelot's face.

Besides the games which I have mentioned, there are plent of other Hideo Kojima related games which are overlooked such as Policenauts, Boktai, and Tokimeki Memorial Drama. Hideo Kojima has a bit more under his belt than just the Metal Gear Solid series, and this week is dedicated to those games.

Well to a certain extent that is. I received quite a bit of help from the users to determine the specifics of this week. I would like to thank those who gave me suggestions. To start off, the featured game is Sword Master, a very mediocre game that really doesn't have too much going for it. The featured hardware is the Sega 32 X. With the exception of a few diamonds in the rough, this, like Sword Master, doesn't have much going for it. The featured image is that of the hilarious cover of Valis III, thank you Dreamcaster for the recommendation. Finally, the featured collection is hydrobond's unbelievably awesome collection which consists of one game. That game, my fellow droogs, is World of Warcraft. It just goes to show that quality>quantity. And with that, adios and keep it tuned to channel 3.

After last weeks amazingly awesome features, I pretty much decided there was absolutely no way in bloody hell I could top Tan. So, I do what I do best, I decided I would simply make everything about me. The game of the week just so happens to be one of my all time favorite RPGs, the screenshot of the week just so happens to be of my favorite  action game of all time(hard as balls too), the featured hardware is of a controller that is so unGodly uncomfortable I have blisters on my thumb from using the damn thing's d-pad while destroying all who oppose me in Capcom vs. SNK 2 EO. The featured collection is that of a user whom I've never talked to but have dreamt of having his username as my own, also his collection is nice and organized which I could only wish mine was like that.

So...Yay this week is about stuff relevant to me. Booyakasha to all those who disagree with the way I choose to do things around here. Actually, PM me because I'm running low on themes for the week <_<.
Anyway, the featured game is Shadow Hearts Covenant, and outstanding RPG from, gasp, Midway. The featured Screenshot is of Devil May Cry 3, which, if you have played the game, will make you cringe. The featured hardware is that of Nintendo's Wavebird, a fairly cool wireless controller. Finally the featured collection is that of Rajaat the Warbringer. Lots of NES games, nice cabinet, really organized. Damn I wish I could claim to be that organized.

Well there you have it. Sorry it isn't as outstanding as Tan's features. You only have to deal with this for a week my good chum.

Yup. April Fools day is going to continue a bit longer as we focus on toddler stuff this week. This may or may not be fun. The featured game is Fisher Price's I can Remember, a game which I can proudly say I own. The featured image is that of Sesame Street ABC/123 which is yet another game I own. The featured collection is that of Cobra Blade, congrats on being nominated and do not take offense to having the featured collection. I simply made the connection between Cobra and G.I. Joe. Finally the featured hardware is the purple Nintendo Gamecube because...
1. Kids like purple.
2. Nintendo is kiddy.
3. Nintendo is kiddy.


April Fools. Anyway, keep it tuned to channel 3.

After a long hiatus, the RFGeneration features are finally updated. My apologies about that. Kicking off this week we have a theme centered around a genre of games which seems to be unknown to the RFGeneration community. I am talking about the sports genre.


The featured game this time around is WWF Wrestlemania Challenge which I firmly believe is the wrestling counterpart to Tecmo Super Bowl. Our featured image is that of Ken Griffey Jr.'s Winning Run which at the time had some of the most gorgeous graphics. The featured hardware is the classic Sega Genesis controller which is one of the most comfortable controllers ever made. Finally, our featured collection is the collection of Rabusma, a user whom has multiple versions of many systems.


So there you have it. Hopefully with the addition of sports week RFGeneration can become a bit more diversified. As always, keep it tuned to Channel 3.

Well everyone, here it is, the week we have all been waiting for. Yes, it is the week where Shimra presents another halfway thought out article and declares an even more poorly thought out week. Yes everyone, it is the week you have all been waiting for, it is of course Super Quirky Handheld Games Week.



Now that you have let the awesomeness seep in, I shall present to you the featured game of the week. It is an outstanding game where you take the role of a rookie defense attorney whom is quickly raising in the ranks. Yes I am of course talking about Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Our featured image is of Trace Memory, a unique point and click adventure for the DS. Our featured collection would be DevIancE's. The reason being that DevIancE has tons and tons of handheld games and systems, not to mention the name DevIancE is pretty amazing.



Well there you have it. As always, keep it tuned to Channel 3, and may we never forget Michael Collins.
