In this year's Super Replay Showdown , the game I was fighting for was arguably the worst of the bunch. I had heard stories of the insane and hilarious physics of Jurassic Park: Trespasser, and the whole boob tattoo health meter sounded ridiculous. Despite hearing these stories on several occasions...

This year's Super Replay Showdown ended with an unexpected dance-off between Ben Reeves and I. Even more unexpected was my fleet-footed rise to victory, but my triumph comes at a terrible toll; I now have to grind my way through the original NES installment of Ninja Gaiden, an infuriatingly challenging...

On March 6, Andrew Reiner, Ben Reeves, and myself made our weekly visit to the Vault to pick a game to play for Replay. Reiner knelt down by the GameCube wall, Ben Reeves scoured our PSone shelves, and I looked over our Dreamcast selection. Near the top was a game that I had never heard of, but instantly... More

Game Informer's Replay crew has played a ton of crappy games. First there was Overblood , then Galerians , then Overblood 2 , then Cyberia , and we just finished up Blue Stinger . While these games are unforgivably awful, I wouldn't trade my time with them for anything. From the statue falling... More

It's time once again for the Super Replay Showdown. If you remember last year's inaugural tournament , you'll remember the rules. Several Game Informer editors (last year had eight entries, this year features ten) get a chance to choose the game that they'd most like to see as our next... More

Over the last couple of years, the Replay crew has introduced a new installment of Super Replay on New Year's Eve. We continue this tradition this year with a game we hope captures the same spirit of the "classic" Overblood games. Blue Stinger is a survival horror game that launched alongside... More

'Tis the season for crappy holiday gaming. Scattered within the thousands of games in Game Informer's vault, we found two that celebrate the holiday season. Now that Wii U is on store shelves, we can officially dive into Wii's library for Replay episodes. Outside of Tim breaking the rules... More

We had a ton of fun recording our Super Replay of the first Mega Man Legends . Cans were kicked, ruins were explored, and servbots were swooned over. But let's be honest: That playthrough had its fair share of rough patches. We frequently got lost and I may have accidentally sold all of our best... More

In June, we played Batman Forever for an episode of Replay . That game had us laughing for a variety of reasons, but it was topped by the Replay Roulette that succeeded it. Featuring seemingly-random scripted deaths, the most stilted control scheme on the planet, and some awkward plot twists, it was... More

We played through Super Metroid in our most recent Super Replay , and we decided to have our ridiculous inside jokes and off-kilter discussions immortalized in t-shirt form. So, we turned to the Game Informer community to create the designs that would adorn two different Super Metroid themed shirts.... More

Many of you have been wondering what happened to all of the outtakes we include in our Super Replay episodes.

Earlier this year, we held a tournament that would determine our next Super Replay. Eight Game Informer editors chose a game to fight for, and I landed on the original Half-Life. I beat Ben Reeves in the finals , and earned the right to play through the entirety of this classic for the first time on... More

It's come down to this. A field of eight contestants and eight Super Replay candidates has been narrowed down to two: Ben Reeves and myself (playing for Conker's Bad Fur Day and Half-Life, respectively). The winner of this showdown will determine what our next Super Replay is, and tension is... More

It's week four of our Super Replay Showdown, and it's time to determine the final two participants. Considering Phil is leaving before we'll be filming the winning Super Replay, we have one slot to fill. Watch below to see some previous contestants get another lifeline in the tournament.... More
