Retro Gaming: Cho Aniki (1992)

6/8/2015

0 Comments

Cho Aniki which translates as "Super Big Brother" is bizarre video game from Japan.  The game gain cult status from its surreal graphics, wacky humour and homoerotic overtones. The game is essentially a side-scrolling shoot-em-up, where spend much of the game semi-naked, with other semi-naked muscle men, fighting more semi-naked and oiled-up muscle men. There are pyramids of semi-naked men, rocket powered dildos, and an end of level boss that fires a giant man shaped penis out of his robotic cod-piece. You really can't make this stuff up, and that's all just a brief explanation of the weirdness that is Cho Aniki, that actually spawned a whole series of sequels. 
The first game debuted in 1992 for the PC Engine system. The game's many sequels and spin-offs later appeared on the Super Famicom, Sega Saturn, PlayStation, and PlayStation 2.  

The game is an example of what the Japanese refer to as "kuso-ge", meaning "shit game". In fact it's classed as a sub-genre, known as "baka-ge", which translates as "idiot game".

How To Have Cybersex On The Internet!

3/8/2015

Picture
This video clip from 1997 first popped its head up on the Weird Wide Web last year. Originally a brilliantly funny instructional video found by the curators of the Found Footage Festival Nick Prueher and Joe Pickett, in a Minnesota thrift store, on an old VHS tape. With the bad fashion of the presenter, her sudden unexplained appearance topless, and hysterically delivered dead-pan lines like, "I’ll show you how to reach a cybersex climax. We’ll also visit others who have mastered the art of one-handed typing." It's a gem of a find.
Literally the most unerotic video about sex you may ever see. The delay in her typing, and the response, in typing lines like. "I'm very horny and I'm looking for some good cybersex are you interested?" To which our pervert at the other end of the dial-up connection replies, "Yesssssssssss" is classically creepy 90s chatroom/cybersex foreplay.

The crazy Christian album covers have been a popular Sunday feature over the past few months. Starting with the Touched By The Hand Of God series (part 1 and part 2), and God's Dummy: Christian Ventriloquists.  All followed by The Further Adventures Of Crazy Christian Album Covers. 

There are plenty more out there to be found on the Weird Weird Web, but today's Sunday blog brings you the 12 best of the rest, that I've come across while digging around. Saving some of the best until last, from a Christian ex-wrestler, to the blind Chinese choir for Christ.
