While Voltron has had a few iterations, including the direct sequel series Voltron Force currently airing, there is just something about the nostalgia and, yeah, cheesiness, of the original Lion Force saga that is special to nearly every child of the 80s.
From Peter Cullen’s introduction to the ridiculous voices that the main actors provided for bit parts, Voltron is a mixed bag until you remember that it’s about five awesome robot lions that turn into a butt-kicking giant robot.
Impulse Gamer - Voltron: Defender of the Universe is an action-adventure game for Xbox Live Arcade and Playstation Network. The game’s main selling feature is the fact that it is based off the old Voltron TV series from the 80’s and it’s low price of ten dollars. However, is the game worth even the low price of ten dollars? Well that all depends on how hardcore a Voltron fan you are.
"New DLC is now available for the Xbox Live Arcade game Voltron which is of course a remake of one of the best 1980's children cartoon series ever made. The new content is entitled "Zarkon's Arena of Doom" and is a new challenge level where you must choose your Lion and attempt to survive the onslaught of Zarkon's Doom Army along with new Achievements."
I haven't even tried this game yet, as big as a fan as I was of the old cartoon. Is it any good?
Even if it seems a bit dated im still trying to let myself be excited. hopes not up but still smiling lol
Good nostalgic fun.
