Virtua Fighter (Saturn) (1995)

3/3
Jeffry the Aussie fisherman standing atop a skyscraper at night, getting the crazy idea of flying body pressing the entire building, seen here mid fall. I honestly don't know what he expects is gonna happen. A portrait of a man, carrying on his shoulder the burden of his inner bratty child, played on this desert stage by the Chinese cook Lau Chan, carrying on his shoulder the alternate costumed Lau Chan who looks very annoyed by the prospect of being carried by Lau Chan. On the beautiful, sun-lit beach, Wolf Hawkfield learns that Akira can't swim so he picks him up, wanting to forcefully throw him in the ocean to teach him how to swim while Akira is wildly flailing with his legs up in the air and yelling "but there's sharks in them there waters!" What looks like a helicopter landing platform in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by canyons, a white mist and unrealistically #1000f8 blue skies, is the battleground, or should I say sniffingground for two clone Jeffrys doing a sort of a 69 style vertical piledriver move, which is obviously just an excuse to sniff each other's taint, with the original Jeffry looking extremely deep in there, clipping through Other-Jeffry's nether region.

Virtua Fighter (Saturn) (1995)

2/3
The unfortunate ninja can't take a break because the next morning the beautiful blonde Sarah Bryant punches the heck out of Kage, and as he's levitating for a fleeting moment, he looks at the camera and does the "well, that's me... you're probably wondering how I got here". Wolf just doing his thing, venting his frustrations, howling and doing a very awkward squat with his arms spread wide with a permanent constipated grimace on his face, looking like he's about to shart his shorts. A top-down view of Kage and Pai Chan, both wearing varying shades of blue, looking like they're dancing, with Pai seemingly doing the "turtle dance" where her head kinda flips backwards and retracts into her shoulders. It takes years to master that move but it's a blast at parties. Kage finally gets his revenge on Mr. Hawkfield on this lovely evening sunset, with red and purple colors intermingling to create a masterpiece, as Wolf flies backwards from the powerful kick, looking at the camera and thinking "well, that's me... you're probably wondering how I got here".

1/3
Two young men enjoying their day on the beach when a mysterious wind blows, turning them into low-poly characters and instilling in them the burning desire to fight. That, of course, has nothing to do with Virtua Fighter. Well, except for the lovely beach under the beautiful SEGA-blue skies. Akira Yuki, the Ryu to Jacky Bryant's Ken, just kicked his opponent so hard he made Jacky fly up in the air as he's looking at the camera in a very "well, that's me... you're probably wondering how I got here" moment. The blue ninja Kage grabbing Jeffry and doing a very elegant, almost ballet-looking throw while holding his leg at almost 45 degree upwards as his opponent is about to hit the stone floor. Cannot confirm but I'm assuming the ninja is also doing a little tee-hee giggle. On the aforementioned beach, Jeffry McWild with his bare chest, beard and ponytail dreadlocks, having an argument with the Canadian pro wrestler Wolf Hawkfield, shouting at him and stomping his feet while Wolf looks hunched down like he's devastated, apologizing for not paying enough attention to his friend and possibly lover. Perchance later in the day, Wolf vents his frustrations at the poor Kage, doing a suplex on his ass, with the ninja looking at the beautiful rainbow colored sunset skies before he passes out from the ground slam.

Extreme-G (N64) (1997)

2/2
Rushing towards what appears to be a massive crashed alien spaceship with wide octagonal engine exhausts or docking bays, hollowed out to make way for this dumb bougie racing league. Imagine if LV-426 from Alien was rebuilt into a racing track, driving through the alien spaceship, that's what this is. Zooming past even more alien junk but who cares the ratings are skyrocketing! Driving the neon green and chunky Mooga bike with an enemy yellow and red checkered vehicle passing you by from the left, which is embarrassing since you're just driving through an endless looking straight metallic tunnel, looking like the transitional rusty metal sliding sections in MDK. Riding the purple bike with jarringly yellow wheels called Grimace (you can't see it but it has a smiling beastly jaw with sharp teeth painted on the front) doing a medium right turn while being followed by a floating green holographic drone thing, driving past a building with a yellow neon sign spelling out "GOLDRU$H". I guess they build casinos on alien planets now as well, figures.

Extreme-G (N64) (1997)

1/2
A dystopian racing league with Akira bikes and dizzyingly twisting tracks through alien ruins, with complete disregard for the historical or cultural importance of the planets they're racing on. We see Raze, the blue and red bike, currently equipped with two side cannons, speeding towards what looks like a brown egg or an American football pigskin, floating under an ancient cuboid structure with gray aliens carved into its stone pillars. Fox Mulder believed so Extreme-G could run. A sidelines view at the race as a few of the bikes exit a tunnel into the open night sky with spiky brown stone formations rising upwards and a nearby blue moon looms over the planet. If we assume someone is filming this from the side of the track, they must be a real hardcore fan since there ain't a living soul on the surface of this planet. I just hope they're wearing some sort of space suit. The stylish white Rana bike with red and blue stripes, speeding towards an impossibly twisting sci-fi road that's warping at more than 90 degrees, forcing the racers to defy the laws of gravity. It's like if someone took the "twirl" tool in Photoshop and applied it to the world. The bright red Apollyon bike riding on a blue checkered track as it's entering a cat eye shaped tunnel entrance with the sides of the road filled with lava, or possibly just sand, depending on who you ask.

As is sometimes customary here, I like to showcase some little low-poly animals I come across, this time a flock of white pigeons flying over a road going through a semi-open tunnel, showing their beautiful little orange beaks and flat cardboard wings.

Bloody Roar (PS1) (1998)

3/4
While the kickflip didn't quite work on the grumpy gorilla, it seems super effective against Fox as Alice is kicks them backwards while doing a powerful pink swoosh with her legs. Long in his human form doing a squatting rainbow swoosh with his arms, only managing to summon the green frequency of the light's spectrum, which seems fine for his opponent Greg because his gorilla face seems amused by the pretty lights. Bakuryu as a mole giving Yugo a tight hug in the air as they're falling upside down together, looking at the rolling green hills and trees under a beautiful blue sky and an ominous beige fog covering the lands. The game has a mostly useless but hilarious first person camera mode, here showing the view from Bakuryu's perspective with his little hands scratching Yugo's wolf form snout and looking deep into his beastly green eyes.

Bloody Roar (PS1) (1998)

2/4
A muscly buff goddess with short hair and thin bandana, wearing a yellow shirt and green overalls, the amazing shopkeeper Mitsuko the Boar, currently grabbing Bakuryu the Mole by his shirt while in his beast form and jumping upwards, looking like she's about to leave for her home planet with her newly found mole friend. With beast forms reversed, we see Mitsuko in her boar form holding up the twice-smaller bald Bakuryu with his Heihachi Mishima hairstyle, close to her ample bosom, giving him squeezes and kisses with her boar snout. If you zoom in closely, you'll see Bakuryu looking like he's a pouting child. Alice the Rabbit in her fluffy bright pink rabbit form looking a bit confused as Greg the Gorilla with his thick old man muscles in suspenders and green pants while sporting a top hat, turns around, doing kind of a clumsy back kick, possibly asking Alice if she can crape off the sticky gun that he just stepped on. With shoes cleaned and ironically taken off now as Greg has transformed into his gorilla form, Alice goes back to her human form as it took so long to take that chewing gum off, getting annoyed and doing an acrobatic backwards kickflip.

Bloody Roar (PS1) (1998)

1/4
The very fem and queer coded Hans the Fox (they are female in the European version so they/them pronouns seem appropriate), a part of the pantheon of beautiful killers a la Vega, covered in neon-green leather sleeves and chest harness covering their pale skin and short shorts and thigh-high shiny orange leggings. They're currently kicking the Chinese martial artist Long the Tiger right in his tiger nuts as he's already transformed into his beast form, with flashy sparkles emitting from his crotch with what I can only assume is a loud pop. With roles reversed, Fox transformed in their white-fur foxy form, doing a deadly downward swoosh with their claws right on Long's noggin. Gado the pink Lion with his black mane, numerous belts and camo pants, doing a dumb trick for Yugo the Wolf as he's telling him to look at his closed palm and then punching him in the face when Yugo gets close enough. Yugo got all angry at the prank and beat the crap out of Gado, with the announcer declaring him the winner, showing Yugo with his blonde Leon Kennedy hair, X-shaped scar on his forehead, bare-chested open red shirt and white shorts, doing a powerup winning stance with some electricity flowing through his arms.

I'm happy that someone already recommended Kin-Dza-Dza! so I'll mention Mars et Avril (2012) about an old maestro finding love while mankind is preparing to step foot on Mars, if nothing else for the beautiful visual design by François Schuiten.
An old man with white hair, prominent eyebrows and twirly beard looks surprised while sitting at a bar while the bartender is serving drinks, looking like an outlandish mix of princess Leia made out of white paper and a program from the original Tron movie.

Metroid Prime Hunters (NDS) (2006)

3/3
A transdimensional chamber of the Stronghold Void, a green, alien tunnel with some rocks and a futuristic bridge leading to a glowing gate that looks like a camera aperture, with twisty root-like shapes twirling around the room, suggesting ideas into Samus' mind that this must be what it's like to live inside a kiwi fruit. A circular tunnel leading to a locked triangular door with the Klingon emblem on it, guarded by a bipedal green dinosaur-like creature with multiple jaws, looking like a Demogorgon from Stranger Things and looking kinda angry, probably because its official name is the Lesser Ithrak, but its ambitions in life leads it to be much more than a lesser member of its kind, perhaps even one day becoming the crime boss of Gotham City. Samus Aran standing on top of her gunship like she's riding a mythical dragon, looking so damn cool that she's naturally emitting little sparkles and stars around her that make her glitter and shine even more. Just a lovely look at the beautiful graphics of this game, this time set in some ancient alien ruins, a green light filling the small corridor with lots of shriveled plants, leading to a rectangular room with sand on the floor and the roof completely devastated, with just a few bits of stone held by barely holding iron beams, letting in the natural light of the poopy brown alien skies.

2/3
Samus arriving on the red planet Alinos, standing on top of her orange gunship for a better view at the orange desert vista with a nasty yellow river separating her from a natural rocky wall formation with some huge spiraly symbols and a gateway carved into it. Samus Aran wonders what culinary delights she might find on this newfound planet. After defeating the Cretaphid, Samus looks upwards in awe of the newly revealed Octolith, a rhombus-shaped crystal and the main thingamabob she needs to gather around the planets of the Alimbic Cluster. From time to time, Samus likes to just get some rest and curl up into a ball (literally) so we see her loitering inside some alien structure's vent. I wonder if the ball form is similar to a Pokeball and if Samus is like sipping tea in a cozy room while pedaling her feet in the air as if riding a bicycle to make the ball roll around. A closeup of one of the several hunters Samus encounters in this adventure, the menacing Kanden - a green, muscly humanoid with black, insect-like carapace armor with huge neon-yellow areolas (hubba hubba) and a butthole face on his grub-like head.

1/3
A closeup of the relentlessly awesome Samus Aran in her classic golden and red Varia suit, standing kinda startled while looking at something possibly surprising or horrifying, or both, just off camera, which seems to often be the case in her line of work. A huge alien dome covered in a chaotic concentric circles pattern with the ceiling twisting in a spiral, dramatically lit in red and purple colors and a towering totem spire (called Cretaphid, it has a name) rising in the middle, rotating and spouting thin, laser-like concentrated jets of fire, hinting at the possibility that this might be a boss fight of some sort. SamSam finding herself trapped in a room with an orange glass ceiling with half a dozen floating one-eyed drone things, but what they don't realize is that they're trapped here with Samus! A giant sci-fi hall with all sorts of 45 degree edges, greebles, green glass, displays and a spindly yellow generator looking thing. In it, Samus is greeted by a lanky looking robot Guardian with chicken legs and a spiny torso leading to a claw-like head with a red eye in it, with the same texture used for its knees and like the inbetween space on its chicken feet, possibly hinting that its knees and feet have eyes on them? Alien robots, am I right?

Virtua Racing (Saturn) (1995)

2/2
Racing through the Bay Bridge racetrack, literally driving over a red bay bridge that looks suspiciously low for the oncoming boat from the left side. Oh wait, that just might be a rock, nevermind. Racing over a red bowstring truss bridge (I only just found out what this type of bridge is called, you learn something new every day) through the lovely Big Forest track, just taking in the natural sights under a lovely SEGA-blue sky. A look at a different, frontal angle of the vehicle with the driver's tiny helmet sticking out, passing through a rocky area with some nice clear green grass next to the edge of the track. I just realized it says Position 16/16 in all of these screenshots. I'm not that bad at racing games, I was just focused on taking screenshots, I swear! The driver racing towards an evergreen forest with a large Ferris wheel sticking out and a smaller circular ride, maybe a Super Star next to it, seriously contemplating to ditch the race and get on one of them rides and have some fun!

Gorgeous blonde babes with ponytails and skimpy red dresses walking off the track after announcing the start of the race, or at least that's what I'm gathering from the cardboard looking low-poly models, with one of them leaning in to either give you a kiss or bonk you on the head, it's hard to tell. Your trusty red and white formula one racing along a beautiful coastline of the Acropolis track, with the aforementioned ruins slightly visible on the left side as we're racing past them, towards a quaint little village with cute white houses with red roofs. You and another pink vehicle parked in the middle of the track next to one another, perpendicular to the road, just having a chat and catching up while also extremely jeopardizing the rest of the racers. Priorities I guess. A first person view from the racer's seat driving through a highland area with some palm trees coming up in the distance. We can see the driver's little low poly claw-y hands gripping the red steering wheel, kinda looking like someone is holding the wheel with two wrenches. Now THAT'S hard mode.

Cruis'n World (N64) (1998)

2/2
A neon-pink old timer Rocket speeding through the dense streets of London, cluttered with fancy stores and restaurants. Did you know that in 1968, the City of London sold the London Bridge to entrepreneur Robert P. McCulloch who transported the exterior masonry and rebuilt it in Lake Hawasu City, Arizona. The monstrous red pickup truck Monsta rushing through a surreal dirt road tunnel covered in ancient mesoamerican ornate walls and Mayan stone carved jaguar heads breathing fire right above the racers. Did you know that Mexico is home to 35 UNESCO world heritage sites, including ancient pyramids, preserved colonial towns and natural parks, one of which seems to be used as a racing track for cruis'n. The sleek red Kamikaze AWD with its split dual rear window racing over the Brooklyn Bridge with a green car up ahead not liking the lane you're in so it just decided to stumble over the other tracks on the left, almost causing a crash with another yellow car. Did you know that according to postal supervisor Howard Wallace Connelly, one of the early mail packages sent through the 1897 New York Post Office pneumatic tube system was a cat? “How [the cat] could live after being shot at terrific speed from Station P in the Produce Exchange Building, making several turns before reaching Broadway and Park Row, I cannot conceive, but it did,” Connelly notes in his 1931 autobiography. “It seemed to be dazed for a minute or two but started to run and was quickly secured and placed in a basket that had been provided for that purpose.” One former railroad employee actually referred to the pneumatic tube system as the NYC USPS “Cat Subway.” Driving the Tommy, a classic red Mini Cooper, through the streets of Paris with the finish line just a few meters away, waiting at the Arc de Triomphe with bikini babes and surfer dudes waving at you and oh god they're not moving away I can't break in time oh dear lord MOVE AWAY DAMN IT! Did you know that the oldest standing bridge across the Seine river is called Le Pont Neuf or the New Bridge? Everything has to be topsy turvy with the French!

1/2
Cruuuuuiiisn', cruis'n the wooooorld! A beautiful underwater tunnel set in Hawaiʻi, very rectangular and wide, basking in the deep blue color of the ocean with a range of aquatic vegetation scattered about. We see the Serpent, a yellow car with two green stripes in the middle doing a side wheelie, trying to impress all the little fishies. Since there isn't that much to talk about, it's just cars in different countries, I thought I'd post some dumb *facts about the world. Did you know that honking your car horn in Hawaiʻi is very frowned upon? Don't Be a Menace to Hawaiʻi While Sidewalk Skiing Your Car on the Road. *note, none of these facts have been verified. Driving through a wonderful Japanese country highway with a lovely red temple on the right and big torii gates over the road while the peaceful calm of the scene is disturbed by two Zombie XXX hot rod Mustang-likes side bumping while a red car is flipping up into the air just yonder. You don't see people pulling that kinda stunt in Initial D. Did you know that off the coast of Susami, Wakayama lies the world's deepest mailbox, 10 meters underwater? Driving the big blue Rhino 4x4 through what appears to be an ancient tunnel with two obelisks and three masks of Tutankhamun with walls filled with hieroglyphs, which I'm sure is a common occurrence in Egypt. Did you know that the Statue of Liberty was originally designed as Egypt Carrying the Light to Asia, a similar concept of a statue that was to be placed at the entryway of the Suez Canal? Driving a London black cab through a winding and well lit tunnel in Germany, with the lights and and shadows creating a mesmerizing ribcage sort of look, kind of making it feel like you're driving through the insides of a giant whale. Did you know that in Germany civil law allows breaking and entering if you're in pursuit of your bee swarm that you're trying to retrieve?

Chaos Break (PS1) (2000)

2/2
Having kicked one too many zombies, Mitsuki runs into a big Shai-Hulud of a monster with spiky bits and a nasty maw, chasing her down a chilly corridor like a rolling boulder chases a bandicoot. One of the missions of a D.E.F. agent is to gather data and intelligence on location, no matter how small or trivial it may seem because it might mean the difference between life and death. So naturally the best place to start is the restrooms, quickly managing to find a floating CD-ROM over one of the toilets, undoubtedly filled with sensitive corpo data. Deeper into the facility, Mitsuki gets to the red light part of the base, finding one of the scientists lying dead on the ground, being eaten by a weird little facehugger kind of creature with a fleshy tail and two big front eyes and horns/claws, squiggling on the ground and making a mess of the place. Mitsuki promptly employs her devastating high kick, quickly realizing that it's a bit too high to hit anything lying flatly on the ground, and starts worrying. Not long after, Mitsuki runs into a whole gaggle of the little buggers, hanging from the ceiling like Half-Life barnacles, looking very creepy and oozing their green puss all over the floor, eww.

1/2
One of our heroes, Mitsuki, a member of the Defense Earth Force, a sharpshooter and biochemist, wearing a kind of a police officer uniform with a blue flat cap and denim shorts. She's entering the facilities of one Fluxus Inc, clearly dealing with shady shenanigans that needs investigating. One of the burly D.E.F. agents, Larry, looking kinda confused, while she manages to boot up the computer systems in the facility, suddenly turning on a large and wide array of monitors on the front wall, showing static on many of them while some of the security cameras still appearing to be working. Mitsuki tells Larry to "fix the communicator circuits" but he's just giving her a blank stare and kinda giving off a "can't you do that?" vibe. Finally, we see Mitsuki's expertise work, encountering a couple of purple metal droids with four legs and cylindrical bodies that pop out different kinds of weapons out of them. She's got two cool laser weapons akimbo style, held like batons or tonfa while shooting from the front. One of the robots is going haywire, shooting streaks of electricity and exploding all over the place while the other is watching from afar, contemplating whether to stick around or run away. However, robots are not the only enemies here. The bioweapon threat has infected the scientists, growing out fleshy tendrils and spikes out of the unfortunate nerds, covering most of their torso and their head, making them into blood-thirsty zombie monsters. This time, Mitsuki decides to do her powerful high kick, hitting the zombie right in the chest, making it shoot out a green puff of smoke. 🎵A kick in the heart, and you're to blame You give zombies a bad name (bad name)🎵

We finally hunt down the true gang leader, the cool as heck Joe Fang with his long hair and shades, wearing the most futuristic black cyber armor and a jetpack twice his size, holding a futuristic railgun in his right hand and a machete in his left, I guess because he's trying to look more threatening? He's obviously moving his mouth and trying to say something but he's like a mile away and you can't hear a word. Well, you've won! Joe Fang is done (for now) and we see three thugs (including NOO guy) holding their hands up while the final twist reveal is shown in text, spelling out "VIRTUA COP 2 STAFF", confirming that the real criminals were the devs of this game. I'm just kidding, this is one of my top 10 favorite games of all times and I love it to bits. James "Smarty" Cools, also known as player 2, the cool and calculated blonde hero walking past a cop. The police officer, thrilled to see the famous "Smarty" raises his hand for a high five as James instead gives him a salute, creating a really awkward situation. And after that long ordeal, Michael "Rage "Hardy, our sleek haired hero sits down on the dirty pavement, knee bent and hand resting on it, looking far into the distance while reminiscing about all the times he shot someone, feeling sad that there's nobody to shoot anymore. But perhaps, one day, there will be more people to shoot.

Hence, we see one of the balaclava wearing thugs looking confused as they see their groin area flash and fshhhhh out water. This guy though he'd take an innocent passenger on this train as hostage but nope! Ninja dick explode! A very chunky and muscular trucker guy with caterpillar mustache and black shades and tank top, suddenly stops running and looks confused as a very tiny gushing blue flash explodes from his pants. I forgot to mention that the size of the flash is directly tied to the size of one's ween. A crazy looking criminal rushes in with an axe oh wait dick explode.

As a cop, our hero has no sense of private property and privacy so he barges in one of the ship's rooms which just happened to be taken by an actual member of the gang so we see him crouching down and pulling out a gun while his red shirt is all unbuttoned and showing his other guns and things. Storming through the ship's dance lounge, police hero guy's horrible aiming skills manage to miss most of the miscreants onboard, instead shooting all the champagne bottles as they splash on one of the thugs' face so he looks like he's crying as he's wiping his eyes with his sleeves. The corruption has gotten so far that even the members of the Sega Sound Team band on stage have taken up arms and are trying to shoot you in the face. I'm very disappointed in them. You find yourself in a large hangar with a big tank with two robotic arms but you quickly destroy it, forcing its pilot, one Garse Bradley to jump out, looking like a green Santa Claus, pissing him off as he runs towards you, bringing a wrench to a gun fight.

A drama in four pictures. As our hero drives through the city, he is startled by a tiny ninja with a tiny axe on his windshield. A completely unrelated drama is also ongoing on the distant bench between a man and a woman. As he frantically tries to pull out his gun and starts shooting the creepy little ninja, our hero shoots a few stray bullets and manages to hit the man on the bench as the words MISS! LIFE-1 appear on the screen while another ninja is preparing to shoot you from right next to the bench. After some of the commotion is done and the dead man naturally vanishes in a quickly blinking flash, we realize that the lady is still completely unpreturbed by what's going on, not even noticing that her partner has phased out of existence. Sadly, we are still threatened by the dishonorable ninja that aims his gun at us so we continue our murderous rampage through the city, leaving the red-haired woman with her thoughts about something... or someone else. As we find that the gang members have kidnapped and are holding the mayor hostage on a cruise ship, our hero barges in and by complete chance runs into an elevator that, upon opening reveals the red head lady from the bench, looking startled, standing next to a young dashing sailor whose guilt is shown clearly on his face. You decide that this is none of your business and proceed to action hero your way through the ship.

It was you. You took the shot and are continuing to drive through the city with a helicopter hovering above and a large truck with its container open in the back, showing another thug wearing a blue shirt and balaclava, trying to look cool but knowing deep inside that this ain't gonna end well for him. One of the helicopters near the pier, flying really low in front of the ferry terminal with a soldier fellow with a camo uniform, goggles and a green military helmet sticks out and tries to shoot you. These guys will never learn, will they? Running through a subway as you're mowing down the thousands of criminals and soldiers, you get to the exit with a couple of limos and ninjas while two nincompoops are cowardly holding their heads down and running towards each other, about to bonk their heads with a satisfying coconut sound. Driving through the lush Virtua City with beautiful glass covered office buildings and completely destroying a biker and his red bike. His buddy who is still riding his own identical looking bike looks over and sees the absolutely disassembled state of the other vehicle and decides to drive off into the cityscape, where we can see a huge billboard with a grayscale image of a dude about to pour a small beer bottle into his mouth and the words "JUMBOS' DRINK!

Virtua Cop 2 (Saturn) (1996)

1/6 (I know, it's a lot)
Some decisions can turn more fatal than others. Take for example thug #43, waking up in the morning, brushing his teeth and getting ready to rob a jewelry store. He opens his wardrobe and looks at the assortment of shirts on display, grabs the first available and looks at it. An inconspicuous old gray shirt, except for the short writing in front spelling out "NOO". The man hesitates for a moment, thinking that perhaps this is a message from the universe, that perhaps it would be wise to put on a different shirt, or wear no shirt at all? Of course, his rational, analytical mind decides against such nonsense. Besides, he's already late to meet his buddies. There's a job that needs doing. Half an hour later, thug #43 is shot in the dick while yelling the very same word spelled out on his ordinary, simple shirt. N. O. O. Science, logic, reason. These are the qualities that have gotten mankind to the moon and beyond. Sometimes, that is required. Sometimes... that is enough. But sometimes, the shirt you wear can mean the line between life and death in... The Virtua Zone. A closeup of one Bobbie Louise, a burly bald man wearing a puffy orange and black vest and big red pauldrons, shooting frantically from a machinegun while looking completely out of it as shown on his tiny shrunken face. All that shooting completely annihilates two of the police cars, sending them flying and burning in a hellish inferno while the two cops are covering their ears and running away like the pussy ass cowards they are. The large jewelry store sign is partially obstructed so it looks like it just says "World Joy Max", which is exactly the world I'm enjoying right now as I'm seeing these cops running away in shame. Our heroes decide to follow the robbers (of which there are hundreds) as they're fleeing in a dodgy car with flimsy wheels made out of cardboard. One of the passengers decides to climb out of the car, sitting on the opened side window and pointing a gun at you. You see a large billboard in the distance with the face of the beautiful Sarah Bryant from Virtua Fighter and you get distracted for a moment. Who will take the first shot? We might never know.
