For the release of the latest installement, Doom Eternal, Doom 64 is finally getting an (official) PC port, as well as getting released on Xbox 1, PS4 and Switch. And like the classic Dooms back with the Doom 3 BFG edition, Doom 64 is also getting a brand new additional episode-campaign! That's some awesome news, and a great excuse to replay it once more.
I love Doom 64. I always felt it was the perfect missing link between Doom 2 and Doom 3 in its gameplay and atmosphere (developed by Midway or not). And it even works nicely as a prequel to Doom 2016. So it's nice to see it getting re-released.

#Gaming NEWS! Resident Evil 0 - Prototype to HD Remaster
I think I forgot to talk about this...?
So lemme get this straight - the only way Capcom found to sell this upcoming Resident Evil 0 HD Remaster was by comparing it to the unreleased Nintendo 64 prototype?
I guess that goes to show how little the game was upgraded from the original GameCube game, I think I'll stick with it thank you, but no thank you Capcom.
Sure the visual upgrade looks impressive put that way, next to the 64 prototype!! But it's just a slight HD revamp. Even the HD port of the REmake had more work put into it what with Capcom remaking the 3D backgrounds for most of the mansion scenes. Lazy Capcom, lazy...
Back when they completely redid RE1 from scratch for the REmake on the Gamecube, now that was impressive! (And people still believe Capcom could remake RE2 or 3.. sigh..)
This RE0 remaster will be out on PC and consoles early next year.

#BestOf The Powerpuff Girls - you got some ZELDA in my PPG!!
The crossover nobody ever expected!
Who knew the Mayor had a N64 (that apparently plays without cartridges - it's probably an emulator)!

VGR Quake II
Did you like the original Quake 1? Well, good. This game doesn't have a thing to do with that.

#As - Super Smash Bros the 3DS commercials
Alright.
Most of that looked awkward, and almost cringe-worthy...
Still, check it out for yourself:
These don't have a thing on the old 64 commercial:

VGR Tonic Trouble
Here's Ubisoft first attempt at a 3D latformer in the late 1990s.
Perhaps one of Michel Ancel's most underrated titles.

VGR QUAKE 1
The first fully-3D FPS, a game supposedly originally titled Timequake.
We can all be grateful they decided to shorten that silly name...

#Design - Knight's Chase & Doom64 EX custom cover art
Please! Do not ask for these! This was a personal job, not
outsourcing the work to other people. If you want me to work out
something for you, I will do so for money only.
I decided to make some improvised custom coverart for my boxless CD of Knight's Chase. And a quickly made-on-the-spot logo to go along.

VGR Duke Nukem 3D
Long before sequels started using "3D" as numbering sequence for third installments, when the actual 3D used to stand for graphics and not reliefs and when it was still a pretty new thing in gaming..... came the King of all shooters, DUKE NUKEM! (that's what she said!)
If Doom & Wolfenstein 3D are the grandfathers of the genre, Duke sure is the undisputed King to the title.
After two simple Dos sidescroller (as seen in Duke Nukem and Duke Nukem 2), Apogee, by then 3D Realms, came back with an all-new Duke using a completely different engine, with new gameplay mechanics yet still pretty similar to its predecessors at heart.
The rest is now history...
