The Fifteen Most Difficult Genesis Games (That Are Not Battletoads)
September 7th, 2016 Michael Crisman Last year we held a combination shouting match/kumite among the staff to determine the fifteen hardest NES games, discounting Battletoads. In the end, two things happened. First, you all made it the most-read, most-shared column we’ve ever published–you rock! Second, the local hospital told us if we pulled a stunt like that again, they would ‘accidentally’ […]

Hardcore, Unreleased Sega Genesis Action Shooter Shown
December 2nd, 2015 Carl Williams Okay, 1994 would have rocked had we had some of these titles that were in development, presumably for release that year, available. Especially if you are a Sega Genesis fan, I mean, can you imagine playing Elite in 1994? Or how about Hardcore, another unreleased title for the Genesis that was in development 21 years […]

Today in Retro Gaming: G-Police (PS1)
October 15th, 2015 Michael Crisman Hey, you! Yeah, you, the idiot jabbering away on his phone implant. Pull over! Pull your vehicle over to the side of the road, turn on your blinkers. All right, shut off the engine. Let me see your keycard. OK, drop it on the ground. Now step out of the air car, place your hands […]

Five Great Side Scrolling Action Games that are Not Mario
March 3rd, 2015 Carl Williams It is no secret to retrogaming fans that Nintendo single handedly revived the North American video game market with their Nintendo Entertainment System and a little game called Super Mario Bros.

Bandit Gaming- Wipeout Ported to Atari 2600
February 17th, 2015 Carl Williams When the Sony Playstation hit way back in the mid 1990’s it was a seminal release. Sony was new to the console world and their aim was to be as different from the competition and what came before as possible. One way this was accomplished was through requiring, through their stringent approval process, mainly 3D […]

Game Hack: Sega Genesis Shadow of the Beast Colors Corrected to Match Commodore Amiga Version
December 21st, 2014 Carl Williams The Sega Genesis was the recipient of a ton of Commodore Amiga ports throughout its life, especially in the first couple of years. This was facilitated by the fact that the two machines shared A LOT in common with each other under the hood. Electronic Arts was one of the bigger companies to port many […]

Easter Egg: Blast Lemmings with Super Scope 6 in Super Nintendo Lemmings Game
November 9th, 2014 Carl Williams Easter eggs are popular, at least they were before taking a nosedive worse than scrolling shooters did in the first decade of this century. There was a time when Easter Eggs were frowned upon, we are looking at you Warren Robinette and your “sticking it to the man” egg in Atari’s Adventure for the Atari […]

Kickstarter: Quantum Rush- Champions Looks to Recreate that WipeOut Experience
July 4th, 2014 Carl Williams Wipeout, and some of the sequels, were quite the experience in gaming. When the original hit the Playstation, that made a lot of fans look at Sega in a “what do you have” light and when nothing comparable appeared, those fans went with Sony in large chunks. Psygnosis were just too far ahead of the […]
