03.23.23 No Filter HD {SE} #17: “Gunslugs 2” on the Atari VCS! Launch Day Exclusive & First Look! (YouTube)

On this NO FILTER HD Special Edition, I play #Gunslugs2 (2015) on it's #launchday on the #AtariVCS! It's my launch day exclusive! I play the #game & show the #trailer. According to #OrangePixel, "Gunslugs 2 takes the action chaos genre further than ever before... into space and beyond. Rockets, tanks, choppers, train crashes, huge metal robots, aliens and hordes and hordes of the #BlackDuckarmy minions ! It's fun, over the top, action movie parody in a not-so-serious way" #Atari #VCS

Which will climb to the top? Also, 8-Bit Bubba reads us his first ever Mailbag spot! Check it out here on BCB #84. And have a happy happy #holiday!

In case you missed it!... on this episode of BCB, I continue on with my '#Atari50: The Anniversary Celebration' complete talkthrough & gameplay! This is part 6, featuring 'Birth of the Console,' part 2 & 'Highs & Lows,' Part 1! This time, we take a look at the #Atari2600, #Atari7800 & #Atari5200, and discuss the growing pains #Atari endured going from one console to the next, thus, beginning the idea of generations of consoles. There were some troubles, to be sure, but some great #games were produced, such as "Star Raiders" and "Super Breakout" on the 5200. What lies ahead? You'll have to tune in to find out!
