November 12th, 2017 Michael Crisman I’ve been playing and collecting video games since the early 1980’s, and while there’s something to be said for enjoying the greats of the gaming world, there’s no better feeling for me than picking out something I’d never heard of, throwing it into my system, and being unable to tear myself away from it because […]

Revenge of the License: Cobra
August 17th, 2014 Michael Crisman One year before Peter Weller stalked the streets of Old Detroit as Robocop in his mission to eradicate crime, Sylvester Stallone and his mirrored shades stalked the streets of Los Angeles as Detective Marion “Cobra” Cobretti, AKA “the strong arm of the law.” And just as they did with Robocop later on, Ocean waved some […]

Most importantly was that it was breaking the trend of “licensed crap” that had been plaguing systems at the time.

November 14th, 2013 Carl Williams To say the Harry Potter books were a success would be quite an understatement, to say the least. Based on the second book in that children’s series, Chamber of Secrets was quite different on portables than it was on consoles. Rather then recanting the storyline, let’s focus on the different versions of this game.
