I’d been hearing about Manborg — the no-budget homage to 1980s VHS action movies — for a while now. But I only realised that it was out on DVD today after I saw this tweet from Irrational Games writer Joe Fielder.
Seems only fitting that Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and Manborg get released on the exact same day. youtube.com/watch?v=mBHau4…

Meanwhile, in video game land, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon comes out today too. The creators behind the two works clearly share a lot of the same obsessions but it’s a huge coincidence that they’re out on the same Tuesday in April. Well, either a coincidence or the renaissance of corny, half-human, half-machine heroes is about to kick into high gear.

Blood Dragon Hype Get.
Now watch CyberTracker and Kickpuncher series (not a real series)
Kickpuncher 2: Codename Punchkicker.
Kickpuncher: Detroit was the best of the lot imo… unless you were from detroit.
Manborg actually came out April 18 in Australia.
Quit work. Play Blood Dragon. Worth it 😀
Not Really!
