September 27th, 2015 Carl Williams Volgarr the Viking is a newer 2D side scrolling action adventure for Microsoft’s Xbox and Steam, well it was released almost a year ago but that is still newer than Rygar or Ghouls n Ghosts, right? I mention those two classics because it is quite clear that Volgarr the Viking is taking, at least, visual […]

BRAWL Takes Bomberman to a Hell that Jigsaw Would Feel Right at Home in
August 13th, 2015 Carl Williams What happens when you take a classic idea like Bomberman and add in a bit of mature content such as blood, guts and other hellish trappings? You get BRAWL, available on PC, Linux and Mac. Why is BRAWL unique? I mean, I just covered a fan port of Bomberman coming to the Colecovision yesterday, why […]

New Game: Alice’s Mom’s Rescue Coming to Sega Dreamcast
January 6th, 2015 Carl Williams The Sega Dreamcast is a system that, for most retro gaming fans, should not have been discontinued so quickly. This is proven again and again every time a new game comes out for Sega’s final console- we are going on nearly a decade and a half since Sega pulled the plug. HuCast Games is one […]

New Game: Volgarr the Viking on Xbox One, PC, Mac Reminds Us of When Games Were Tough
November 2nd, 2014 Carl Williams It is no secret that Microsoft is kind of taking a beating with the Xbox One versus the Playstation 4 right now. While there are many possible reasons for this, I like to think it is a case of lack of retro content available for the platform- Sony has their whole PSOne Classics catalog of […]

New Game- Outpost 13 Brings Horror to Point and Click Adventures
September 5th, 2014 Carl Williams Remember the movie “The Thing”? Outpost 13 is similar to that classic movie (not the remake) but with a slight twist.
