Cho Aniki - The Strangest Game Ever?

Posted by simoniker on Thursday September 4, 2003 @11:31PM from the most-disturbing-shmup-of-all-time dept.

Thanks to NFG Games for their newly-posted detailed look at Ai Cho Aniki for the PC Engine / TurboGrafx, a side-scrolling, bodybuilder-filled shoot-em-up where, as the author explains: "The game starts as many do, in space above some clouds with... floating heads, swords and a strange guy on a half-moon who throws babies at you." The extremely odd graphical presentation, encompassing "burly men, angels, [and] machines with faces", even extends to the game's front cover - and it's not the only version for the PC Engine, even. There's also now a PlayStation 2 sequel, called Mighty Brothers: The Legend of the Holy Protein, due later this year.

Forget the video game. Imagine what NFL football will do to your kids - not only is it full of burly men in super-tight pants, but they also spend half the game rolling around in the mud with each other!!
