As a kid at the local Dairy Queen they had a playchoice-10 machine. At the time I didn’t know this, but being something of a gaming enthusist I’ve found out that nintendo released arcade units with nintendo games on them called Playchoice-10. These machines were around a few…

River City Ransom is one of the games I wished I had got as a kid. A friend of mine had it, we would play for a bit, then get stuck. We didn’t know you could wander around the city or that you get stronger buying foods. We just liked beating the [...]

randombullseye wrote a new blog post: Old School Games: Yakuza series

For those that don’t know, Yakuza is essentially River City Ransom 3D. That might be a bit silly and reviewerish of me, but that’s instantly what I got from playing it. It’s no where near as popular as it should be. Considering how amazing the first two games I are, I’m very…

randombullseye wrote a new blog post: Old School Games – Emulation

During my inagural run of the internet on Starcraft, I met a guy who told me that he liked playing all certain game X on his computer. I explained I never played 2 or 3 and he said he could just send me the “rom.” What? A rom? Really? All I had to do was [...]

”


Shin Megami Tensai, what the heck could that possibly mean? Translates to New (or True?) Reincarnation of the Goddess. I don’t know what that means really. Information I have gathered indicates that the story was originally based on a novel about [...]

Today’s article is about the genesis 1995 exclusive, Vectorman! Hooray for Vectorman! I just love saying his name over and over. I found Vectorman sitting amongst the other genesis games in my local rental store. When you start up the game instead of the just the usual Sega logo,…

One thing I’m always reading in response to my articles is about Nostalgia. The idea that I only like these games because I played them twenty years ago. Wrong. Some of my readers seem to act like that too. I’ve a game I’m playing for the first time today that I’ve heard [...]
