There is something incredibly badass about a giant flaming space snake glaring at you into the depths of your soul. I knew before even putting this game in that it was going to fun! Again, this is a game I never knew existed until I got back into retro gaming and am happy that I… Read More NES Review – Life Force
When I got my Dreamcast back in high school (through a trade), I got a couple games with the system including Soul Caliber, Sonic Adventure, and Grandia 2. The last game I got was Tennis 2K2 – and I was a bit disappointed. I certainly didn’t get the dreamcast to play tennis, but I was pleasantly… Read More Dreamcast Review – Tennis 2K2
I rented this game with my brother back in the 90’s and remember having a blast playing it! The characters were hilarious, the moves were funny, and the fighting was fun and seemed so different and more accessible compared to the ultra competitive Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo. I decided to revisit this game with my brother… Read More SNES Review – ClayFighter
Gundam Wing was the first Anime that I watched that was not kid-focused like Dragon Ball Z or Pokemon. When I saw it on TV, I was blown away by how amazing the robots were, how cool the art was, and how it blended war drama with awesome space combat. How cool would it be to play… Read More SNES Review – Gundam Wing: Endless Duel
Contra as a series are games my brother and I have played since the beginning of our video game days. We never owned any of them, but would borrow them from friends or rent them from game stores. Contra 3 – the first iteration of the series on 16-bit consoles – is an awesome run and gun… Read More SNES Review – Contra 3: The Alien Wars
Blades of Steel! I got this game for Christmas when I got my original Nintendo when I was six years old! My twin bro and I played the heck out of it. While I never really followed hockey that closely (and still don’t to this day), since Blades of Steel, I have enjoyed the odd video… Read More NES Review – Blades of Steel
My first Dreamcast review! Do I ever love this system! So many great hidden gems! I got my first dreamcast while in high school. I traded my old bass guitar for a giant collection of Dreamcast and Genesis systems and games. One of the first games that I tried was Soul Calibur. It quickly became one… Read More Dreamcast Review – Soul Calibur
Bubble Bobble is one of the games that I grew up with playing with my bro. As a twin, it was always awesome when a game was two player cooperative so we could both play at the same time. This game filled that gap and we played it for hours! At its core, Bubble Bobble is… Read More NES Review – Bubble Bobble
Early in the life of the N64 – my brother and I rented Killer Instinct Gold – at the time the graphics dazzled me, and I was super impressed with how cool the characters were, and how crazy the killer combos could get. Having not played the game for at least 15 years, and having not… Read More N64 Review – Killer Instinct Gold
Super Mario 3 – I have beaten this game annually for the past 10 years with my twin brother. We do it the old fashion way; no skipping levels and when you beat a level or die, you pass the controller. The amazing thing about this game is I never get board. It’s just so… Read More NES/GBA Review – Super Mario Bros 3
