Ah, the Sega Genesis—arguably the most rebellious, leather-jacket-wearing, blast-processing-fueled console of the early ‘90s. This was the system that swaggered into the gaming scene, pointed at Nintendo’s Super NES, and said, “You call that speed? Hold my Chaos Emeralds.”
The Console Itself
Looking like a sleek, black, slightly melted VCR, the Genesis had a no-nonsense design that screamed “serious business” (if your business was making an anthropomorphic blue hedgehog run at unsafe speeds). It had a volume slider for headphones—because Sega wanted you to feel like a DJ while mashing buttons—and a giant POWER switch that made you feel important when you flipped it.
Blast Processing™ (Whatever That Was)
Sega’s marketing team conjured up the term Blast Processing™, a mysterious and scientifically dubious feature that essentially meant “our games are fast, and we have an attitude about it.” It was never quite clear what it actually did, but it was enough to make kids feel like they were piloting a fighter jet instead of playing Sonic the Hedgehog in their pajamas.
The Controller
The Genesis controller was a hulking, boomerang-shaped piece of plastic with three whole buttons (which felt futuristic at the time). Later, when fighting games became popular, Sega realized that, oh no, three buttons weren’t enough! So they released the six-button controller, which made the original feel like a rotary phone by comparison.
The Games
Sonic the Hedgehog – A game so fast it felt like it was trying to break the laws of physics.
Altered Beast – A side-scrolling “Greek mythology but weird” game where a guy yells “RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE!” at you like an undead gym coach.
Streets of Rage – Where you settle all disputes with fists, steel pipes, and the occasional turkey dinner found in a trash can.
Mortal Kombat – The game that made parents gasp in horror while kids cheered at pixelated fatalities.
The Console Wars
If you had a Genesis, you were on Team Sega in the legendary Console War against the SNES. It was a brutal playground battlefield where kids debated whether Mario or Sonic would win in a fight (the answer: Sonic, if there were no walls). Sega’s advertising even threw shade at Nintendo with the iconic slogan: 👉 “Genesis Does What Nintendon’t.” (Which is hilarious, because in the end, Nintendid survive longer.)
The Legacy
The Genesis may have eventually lost the war, but it left an undeniable mark on gaming history. It was the cool older sibling of consoles—edgy, stylish, and maybe a little too obsessed with speed. Today, it lives on in retro collections, mini consoles, and the hearts of those who still hear the words “SEGA!” in their dreams.
Would you like to add any Blast Processing™ to your day? 😆

The PlayStation 4 is like that cool friend who always has the best movies, the latest games, and somehow still runs smoothly even after years of use. It hit the perfect sweet spot between power and affordability, packing a serious punch without making your wallet cry. Whether you were swinging through New York as Spider-Man, hunting robotic dinosaurs in Horizon Zero Dawn, or losing yourself in a God of War existential crisis, the PS4 was your loyal digital sidekick. And let’s not forget the Share button—because if you pulled off an insane trick shot in Rocket League but didn’t record it, did it even happen?
Of course, the PS4 also had its quirks, like sounding like a jet engine every time The Last of Us Part II booted up, or occasionally deciding it just didn’t feel like ejecting a disc. But those flaws became part of its charm, like a beloved pet with an attitude. It was the console that kept the gaming world spinning for nearly a decade, bridging the gap between old-school couch co-op and the online multiplayer chaos of today. Plus, with a library that still holds up, it’s the kind of system you can dust off years later and still have a blast—assuming you can find where you left that one controller that always has drift.
Think you’ve seen it all on PlayStation 4? 🤔 Think again! These underrated PS4 games deserve a spot in your library:

The PlayStation 4, or PS4 as it’s lovingly called by gamers and begrudgingly tolerated by parents, is the sleek, black box that promised to revolutionize gaming—and deliver a soundtrack of button mashing to living rooms worldwide. Released in 2013, this console is essentially the Swiss Army knife of entertainment. Need to game? Done. Want to stream Netflix? Easy. Accidentally fall asleep during a binge-watch session and forget to turn it off? It’s got your back. Its iconic DualShock 4 controller, with its touchpad and light bar, makes you feel like you’re holding a spaceship dashboard. But let’s be real: that light bar is mostly just a glowing beacon for your cat to attack.
The PS4’s interface is slick and modern, as long as you don’t mind the occasional existential crisis caused by updates that take longer than a Tolkien trilogy. It also has a knack for transforming into a jet engine when playing graphically intense games, as if it’s personally trying to power your gaming session with sheer enthusiasm. And let’s not forget its library of legendary exclusives. God of War, The Last of Us Part II, and Spider-Man are proof that the PS4 can do more than just make your thumbs sore—it can also emotionally destroy you. In short, the PS4 is that friend who always shows up with snacks, keeps things exciting, but occasionally demands a two-hour nap to recharge.
Atari is like the cool grandparent of the gaming world—back in its prime, it threw the wildest Pong parties and made “joystick” a household word. Founded in 1972, this trailblazer brought us classics like Asteroids and Centipede, proving that all you needed for fun were blocky graphics and a good imagination.
Sure, Atari had its awkward phases (cough the E.T. game burial cough), but let’s be honest: who hasn’t made a few questionable life choices? Despite the ups and downs, it’s the brand that planted the pixelated seeds for the gaming empire we know today. Long live the 8-bit legend!
