Fascinating story. The creation of Bleem! and the Utopia boot discs are extraordinary feats in the history of video gaming. Did he ever get sued by Sony or Sega…or did he get out of lawsuits via the reverse engineering?
I was about to complain about the ranking of #17 (thinking it was waaay too low), but I was thinking it was the Ghostbusters PS3 game (that was later re-mastered for the PS4). It turns out, THAT Ghostbusters game is #1 on the list, so I have nothing to complain about.
I remember having a fun playing Ghostbusters for the NES, but that’s not on the list. It appears to be the same game as #7, though. It wasn’t fantastic, but it was fun enough for those times.
Sanctum of Slime (#11) was ok. At least it was four player with local co-op, so it gets a thumbs up from me for that! I’d move that one up the list a few pegs just because of the four player capabilities. 😀
This is an amazing feat that I sadly failed to accomplish in my youth. Now, as a 47 year old husband and father of an 18 year old daughter, I wish this young man a prosperous future. What he did IS amazing. He’s obviously got the brains, quick thinking, hand-eye coordination, dexterity and sticktuitiveness necessary to go far in life. Don’t pay attention to the haters, young man. They don’t know and don’t care; leave ‘em in the dust on your way to the top in whatever you choose to do.
And here I was…interested to see where Wipeout, based on the tv show, would land. 😋 I hereby vote for Wipeout: Create and Crash on the Wii. And then I vote for WipeOut 2048 on the Vita. I would vote for the PS4 version of WipeOut because it has PSVR support, but the dang game gets me motion sick before I can complete one lap.
