The Aging Gamer

Hello internet! It’s me Josh, The Aging Gamer. I love retro video games and my whole channel is all about spreading the love and talking about those nostalgic titles. On this channel you’re going to get no bull reviews on classic titles from the yesteryears. You’ll get honest opinions, i’ll talk about my person experiences with the game, learn some tips and tricks and you’ll even get some trivia. All WITHOUT any cheesy skits, asking for donations or me taking time to tell you about any sponsors.

I’m just a real guy that wants to talk about retro video games.

    @@TheAgingGamer oh yeah, multiple playthroughs! The levels can be played in any order like a Mega Man game; but the order determines their length and difficulty. So you get new parts and bosses in each stage depending on what order you play them in. It’s even better now that they’ve finally added online co-op!

They look like regular enemies, but the Double Dragon theme song plays during the fight. It’s pretty dope! My friend and i played it online through the Switch Online service and that’s when i learned about it.

    I m an expert at this game and its one of my favorite nes games. I m sad you didnt beat tyson, but tbh on modern flat tvs its not possible due to the lag of sad tvs. I m sure you didnt beat him because of that - and to save everybodys time. Please remember, you need an old crt tv to beat tyson. And thats the only possible way. Sadly mtpo is one of those games that need original tv set up to be played properly.

    Had never played it before but I recently got the game after hearing about it from AVGN and gave it a go, I might have gotten a beating so far but I'm still playing it, it's a hard game alright but there are other games on SNES that are even tougher, like Battletoads or Ninja Gaiden or even Contra, just don't give up on Maximum Carnage, it's difficult, but not impossible... It's the type of game about Practice makes Perfect and Perseverance...
