When the Sony PlayStation was launched it was an anomaly. Gamers were not quite sure what to expect from this newcomer. Sony had plenty of experience in gaming prior though.

“PlayStation Classic” Set For December US Launch
September 19th, 2018 Michael Crisman If you’re like most gamers, every new console generation prompted a massive sell-off of your old tech to make room (and money) for the new kid on the block. It made sense at the time, with your limited budget and desire to move on to the latest and greatest. But time passed, you got older, […]

September 19th, 2017 Carl Williams Who reading this remembers the original Shadow of the Colossus on PlayStation 2? I do. I chose Shadow of the Colossus over God of War back in the day and never regretted it.

PS1 Collecting: Thirteen Must-Haves For Anyone on a Budget
July 30th, 2017 Michael Crisman If there’s an easier system to pick up and start collecting for than the original Sony PlayStation, I’ve yet to find it. The biggest entry point obstacle to collecting on old school systems is usually buying the console itself, but the PS1 is so ubiquitous and inexpensive it’s absurd. Twenty years ago, putting a PlayStation […]

The Best Sandbox Game of All Time (Is From The PS2-era)
June 25th, 2017 Michael Crisman Free-roaming sandbox-style games come in all shapes and sizes, and there’s no denying the biggest and best-known developer of the go-anywhere, do-anything chaos simulator is Rockstar. Whether they set you down in the middle of a modern-day city the size of New York or Los Angeles in Grand Theft Auto, a private prep school in […]

Top 3 “Desert Island” Games (Top 3 Tuesday)
April 30th, 2017 Michael Crisman I have to say, when I saw MichaelB’s Top 3 Tuesday topic this week, I was confused. This appeared to be the one that broke him. I mean, really, top three games featuring desert islands? As if that wasn’t strange, the video’s thumbnail features Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! which, as far as I can tell, occurs somewhere […]

Cardcaptor Sakura Receives English Translation on PlayStation One
March 24th, 2017 Carl Williams When you think of console gaming you have to do so in regions. What we see in Japan is often never seen elsewhere, or in any other language. Next is often North America and then Europe with the rest of the world battling for fourth in line for new releases. This means some interesting games […]
