Review – King’s Knight (NES)

1989 Squaresoft | 1 Player Graphics 6/10 So so graphics.  They are OK, but this is for NES standards.  It is a Square game, and they tend to have pretty good graphics for their games when they are released, and this is one of their first games so it's pretty early.  Some of the monsters are easy to tell what they are supposed to be but others seem like random blobs. Sound 3/10 I don't remember anything that really stands out in this game and being an early NES game this area isn't too great.  Nothing spectacular or too memorable…

Review – Zero Wing (Genesis)

      It should be being to be well known that I are an fan of the dying game genre sometimes being called "Shooters".     No, I do not mean First Person Shooter, though those be generally pretty well good as also, I refer myself to side scrolling or upwards scrolling space fighter games where there is being the general point is to see how much large of a score can rack up.

Review – River City Ransom EX (GBA)

River City Ransom is a favorite game among many “old school” gamers. It’s fast paced combination of action and RPG coupled with a first rate two player set up make this a game everyone loves to play.

The best new feature, and probably the worst, is the save system. No longer will gamers be plagues by extremely long strings of random symbols and letters. Now you can…
Review – Sonic Adventure (Dreamcast)

Review – Sonic Adventure (Dreamcast)

1 Player | Sega Sega's mascot makes the jump to true 3D.  Though I believe there was a previous 3D Sonic for Saturn or 3sx or Sega CD or one of those, now he’s 128 bit powered and it shows.  This is the Mario 64 of the Dreamcast, the game that was thoroughly crafted to take advantage of the system's overall capabilities.  Certainly a worthy game and surely feels like a Sonic game to me. Graphics (9/10)   Keep in mind the ratings are determined on the system capabilities.  That is, a NES game could receive a 9 as well…
