THEBASEMENT

Dan Bush, Adam Edelen, and special guest Tim Roth sit down and start a prediction conversation of what we may see at this year’s E3. Vodka Gummy Bears are at stake for the winner. ALCOHOL AND CANDY PEOPLE! ALCOHOL AND CANDY!

Disregard the opening promises. It’s February, not October. It’s all…part of the plan! Please enjoy this “brand new” episode of John’s Awesome Adventure Through Gaming History released alongside TheBasement 8.0! To start it all off, we take a look into the controller and background of the Dreamcast. Then, we join John and the rest as [...]

Welcome to the first annual tTB Game of The Year Awards. Our huge, multi-opinionated staff has tallied up the votes, and the final decision is in for TheBasement’s picks for Game of the Year 2010. BEST DOWNLOADABLE GAME SOOOO MANY GHOOOOSTS! Pacman CE DX!     Runners up: Super Meat Boy, Limbo, and Hydro Thunder: Hurricane [...]

Her girlish figure won’t stop her from sploding a few scientists in 2011. For those of you familiar with this site, my love for Twisted Pixel Games is pretty apparent. I’ve mentioned several times in previous areas of the site that their last game, Comic Jumper, was hilarious and overall a fun experience, but not without [...]

This episode is so special we made it twice! To start it off, John finally has more knowledge and ability in a game than the pros in Diddy Kong Racing; this doesn’t last long as we continue with Tony Hawk’s Skateboarding, but then onto Zelda in all its glory, and end credits with a special [...]

A special guest joins the bashing of John’s abilities, beginning with Metal Gear Solid, a fun collection game pack…thing (if you haven’t figured it out it is John writing this – a lack of knowledge should be expected), Tekken 2, and Fighting Force 2, during which we discover John’s love for the economics of gameplay. [...]

The dwindling era of Sega is shared by the guys, beginning and failing with Sonic, continuing with Doom and ending with Virtual Fighter 2. So long, Sega consoles. EDIT: I (John) am an idiot – this is not the last Sega console chronologically.

We have arrived, everybody, to the Sega CD! Wow, using ‘compact discs’ for playing video games. This is the future of gaming, I can see it now. Sadly, the controllers have gone slightly downhill in some ways. What the hell, Sega? What gave you the idea that a cord right in my way is going [...]

This Week: The new age technology of the Compact Disc is introduced with the Sega CD! With Adam looking spiffy in a sleek shirt, Dan tells John about this innovative new console. He begins, as always with Sega, with Sonic! Sonic CD specifically, which unfortunately was lost from the recording. We jump forward to the [...]

We’ve arrived at the Super Nintendo! By this time, I have endured much criticism and added to the dissapointment of Dan and Adam. But where would I be without the taunts and jabs at my expense? They help me to surge forward or something. In any case, allow me to conform to my usual intro [...]
