Power Rangers: The Movie was a big deal for me when it came out. At the time I was just finishing up Grade 6, and was obsessed with the show – especially the Green Ranger arc! To see the Rangers on the big screen was awesome, but I never got around to playing the Genesis… Read More Genesis Review – Powers Rangers: The Movie
I never played Double Dragon 2 growing up. I played the original (which was only one-player and thus not a great game for my bro and I) and part 3 (which was way to hard – I couldn’t even get past the first level). The series left me quite dissatisfied as I personally didn’t like… Read More NES Review – Double Dragon 2: The Revenge
Battle Toads & Double Dragon was a game that my bro and I played a ton when we were kids. We never owned the game, but borrowed it from friends. We also never beat the game – it was damn hard. But the game always had us coming back for more, and each time we… Read More SNES Review – Battle Toads & Double Dragon
It’s Morphin Time! The early 90’s had me dancing each morning as my brother and I would be dropped off at our babysitters’ house before we went to school. At 7:30AM we would watch an episode of Power Rangers to pump us up for the day. When the game came out, I was understandably excited, and promptly… Read More SNES Review – Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
The Golden Axe series is synonymous with the Sega Genesis back in the 90’s. It was one of the blockbuster beatem’up series that brought the arcade experience into the home. While I liked the first one, I find that the second one really refined it on so many levels, improved the graphics, and has slight tweaks that just… Read More Genesis Review – Golden Axe 2
Street Fighter – what an amazing series! It really kicked off the competitive fighting game craze in the 90’s – but what is Street Fighter 2010: The Final Fight? It’s a sequel of sorts to the original game that stars Ken and it takes place in the future when he is a cyborg. It’s actually an action… Read More NES Review – Street Fighter 2010
Growing up, my favourite beat’em up series was Golden Axe on the genesis – it was fantasy brutality destruction with a friend! As I was so satisfied with the series, I never ventured outside of it. This review reconfirms one of my original reasons for starting this website – to find and play awesome games that… Read More GENESIS Review – Streets of Rage 2
I am always down for a good beat’em up game, and up until a few weeks ago never knew this game even existed! I remember seeing this game growing up and figured it was a USA made RPG (something I was not a fan of back then) and questioned why the elf on the cover was not… Read More SNES Review – King of Dragons
Legend! One of the hidden gems of the Super Nintendo. I found my copy of this game in Toronto recently – it was cart only with barely a label on it (which I prompt reattached with super glue). The cartridge looked like it had gone through a “legendary” journey of its own just to make it… Read More SNES Review – Legend
Golden Axe was the first beat’em up game that I ever remember playing. I was six or seven at my babysitters house for the weekend. My brother and I played this game with our sitter and made it to the last level but ended up getting slain by Death Adder (side note – Death Adders are… Read More GENESIS Review – Golden Axe
