Video game bosses are significant for a number of reasons. And it can all be traced back to the basic principles of storytelling. Every protagonist needs an antagonist, the yin to their yang, the hero and the villain, good versus evil, and what other clichés you can conjure. This contrast is how the human mind defines right and wrong. And it's the first pathway to making sense of the digital worlds we passively occupy.

Most games are (or used to be) designed as quick yet satisfying forms of amusement, taking a minimal chunk of time for the sake of entertaining individuals in moments of high stress, agitation or exhaustion. Most folks play video games to simply have fun, though every now and then we'll see games that have a sort of addicting quality, almost like it's some form of pixelated crack. But what makes a video game addicting? Is it the general flow of events, or repetitive grinding methods that seem to make one feel "stronger" with each lasting step?
Articles With us moving forward into the new year & 2011 already showing promise of being the better year we've all desired, it also shows promise that the memories of our previous gaming memories can be made available again for a whole new generation. Retro games are already available though, this is nothing new. There are platforms like Wii's Virtual Console & The Microsoft Game room.

Articles In this episode of Bullet Heaven, we take a look at the only shmup on the infamous Virtual Boy: Vertical Force by Hudson.
Viewers beware... the only way I could capture this one was with a camera jammed into the visor, so the sound and picture are... uh, comprimized. I very nearly abandoned this episode, but Vertical Force is one of a kind on the Virtual Boy, and still makes for an interesting episode. Thankfully, this will be the ONLY episode filmed this way!!
