SNES Review – Earthbound
This is a very special game for me. I remember when this game came out – I didn’t buy it right away. A friend of mine from camp told me how was awesome it was – how you could stay in hotels, order pizzas, and how some of the enemies were actually vomit! The game… Read More SNES Review – Earthbound
NES Review – Dragon Warrior 2
Dragon Quest is one of my favourite RGP series. I recently completed Dragon Quest 11 for PS4. The series has obviously evolved since the first entry, but what’s so lovely about the series is that each Dragon Quest game feels like traditional Dragon Quest game – whether it’s the iconic music, turn-based RPG mechanics, or… Read More NES Review – Dragon Warrior 2
PSX Review – Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
The Castlevania series is one that I have been following since the NES days. I played most of them as I grew up, but one that I missed was Castlevania: Symphony of the Night – arguably one of if not THE best in the series. When I started collecting PSX games, this was one of… Read More PSX Review – Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Genesis Review – Alisia Dragoon
Alisia Dragoon is one of those game I have been trying to find for months as it’s a hidden gem I never had the chance to play as a kid. I recently found it in by one of my local video game stores for a decent price, so I picked it up and haven’t been… Read More Genesis Review – Alisia Dragoon
PSX Review – Final Fantasy 7
This review has been a longtime coming over the past month. I tried to publish it multiple times but things in my life got busy and deadlines slipped numerous times. Life happens sometimes and we end up needing taking a break. When I first played Final Fantasy 7, I was in grade 9 and was… Read More PSX Review – Final Fantasy 7
PSX Review – Legend of Mana
One of my favourite games from the SNES was Secret of Mana. I loved the graphics, story, and fantastic multiplayer! When the next game in the series – Legend of Mana – released back in 1999, it was a day one purchase for me! 17 years later, I recently picked up a copy and thought it… Read More PSX Review – Legend of Mana
GBA Review – Pokemon Fire Red / Leaf Green
I am a huge fan of the Pokemon games. When the original Red and Blue came out, my bro and I decided that we will get each other the Pokemon games for our birthday. I ended up with Red and he got Blue. Having just finished the most recent Sun and Moon, I thought it would… Read More GBA Review – Pokemon Fire Red / Leaf Green
Game Boy Review – Gargoyle’s Quest
Gargoyle’s Quest is one of those games I had no idea existed until I got back into retro gamin over the past year. Turns out this is the first in a trilogy of games that ended with Demon’s Crest for SNES! It stars the evil monster Firebrand (from the Ghouls and Ghosts game series) who turns out… Read More Game Boy Review – Gargoyle’s Quest
SNES / DS Review – Dragon Quest 6
Dragon Quest! One of my favourite JRPG series in the world! I really only discovered the awesomeness of this series over the past few years apart from the first game which I played as a kid. For this review, I played both the Super Nintendo version (on a translated reproduction cart because we never got it… Read More SNES / DS Review – Dragon Quest 6
