When you buy these bootlegged games what’s actually in the game content ? I always wonder this. I've seen modded GTA San Andreas', Mugen and more. |

When you buy these bootlegged games what’s actually in the game content ? Usually, if you're lucky, a collection of old games (usually NES - Game Boy ones), half of which will be the same games just with a bizarre hack like starting you at a later level or changing the physics or something. But at least with those you usually do get some of the bigger names, working and in full. I suppose I wouldn't be surprised if they started doing these multi-cart things for PSX / PS2-era games as well now that technology has advanced, but it does seem like they still usually stick to NES-era stuff, probably because the ROMs are so small you can easily fit hundreds of games, if not the entire library, in a single cartridge / SD Card or even just the bootleg system's internal memory. And many of them have fallen into abandonware of even public domain by now. If you're less lucky, a port of a game for another system whose quality can be anywhere from on par with the original to making you throw your controller at the walls. Even with the better ones, expect missing features and levels, inappropriate soundtracks and visual oddities. If you're even less lucky, something that pretends to be one of the aforementioned ports but is actually just a hack of another, unrelated game that vaguely resembles the one being ripped-off. Again, expect all the downsides mentioned above. If you're downright unlucky, a collection of boring arcade-ish games. Don't expect any of the famous ones but do expect clumsy, poorly-designed, glitchy rip-offs of those. If you're really unlucky, a collection of barely working homebrews you can find better version of for free on any Flash games site. And if we're talking about those LCD screen things, pain. You'll find pain. Check out Ashens' POP Station Watch series for more detail. |

 The most iconic horror movie villain. Ah yes, the iconic star of the Bad Dreams on Oak Crescent movies. |

Had it not been for Sharp Hand Joe, I'd have been married a long time ago. Seriously, never get a physical from a doctor you found on Cragslist, or if you do, make sure they use surgical gloves as razor gloves are just asking for trouble.

A Ghostbusters bootleg, which doubles as a He-Man bootleg.

People don't seem to call attention to the fact that, for all its notoriety, the only image presented by PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is "Guy with Tie Wearing Welding Mask", so they have to recycle that very image THREE times. |

As usual, it's worth it just for the ending alone.

I like how he has "S" on his belt, so his name must be "Style", I guess?  |
