Remakes, reboots, and general updates to games from yesteryear happen at a decent clip. We saw the remaster of the Crash Bandicoot games, Spyro the Dragon franchise, and even Turok which hit fame on the Nintendo 64. We might see a remake of Star Wars Dark Forces sooner than later if things move forward like […]

Computer Generates New Doom Levels
May 17th, 2018 Carl Williams Way back in 1993 we saw the release of Doom by id Software. Once this seminal title was available, PC gaming was never the same again. First-Person Shooters (FPS) had taken over and they were only going to improve with time and hardware improvements.

January 4th, 2018 Carl Williams The Nintendo Switch is not yet a year old, but we are already seeing lower numbers for third party games.

Doom Mod Brings Modern Features to Classic FPS
November 24th, 2017 Carl Williams Anyone that has been playing video games since the days of the original Doom know things have changed. A Lot. What was once common place, and free, is now locked behind a paywall of some sort. Expansion packs always cost, though there are some companies that gave those away as well. Up until we saw […]

Sega 32X Running on Nintendo NES Classic Mini Console
February 17th, 2017 Carl Williams Okay, the Nintendo Classic Mini is getting more and more interesting. Hackers recently figured out how to add more games which was cool. Then we saw hackers showing off how to get even more games on the thing (shattering previously thought limitations of memory). Now we have a video of the Nintendo NES Classic Mini […]

Wacky Wednesday: The “Doom”ed Trilobyte
February 15th, 2017 Michael Crisman Prior to the 1990s, people looked at the IBM PC as a joke of a gaming machine. Long diskette load times, clunky processor speeds, and a choice of CGA or EGA graphics were no match for the fast-moving sprites of the NES or arcade-quality graphics of the Sega Genesis. But 1990 saw the release of […]

5 Games that are Too Much Game for the Hardware
May 20th, 2016 Carl Williams Gaming has always been about pushing the boundaries of the hardware. Whether it was 3D on the Sega Saturn or too many sprites on screen at one time in Gradius III on the Super Nintendo, developers have consistently pushed the envelope.

Revenge of the License: Board Games
May 15th, 2016 Michael Crisman The most obvious shortcut you can take as a game developer is to make a game out of something that is already a game. Chess programs have been used to sell people on the idea of home computers since the 1970s, every version of Windows has shipped with Solitaire built right in, and casino games […]

The Five Most Badass Retro Game Cheat Codes
February 3rd, 2016 Michael Crisman We’re not telling you to wreck a good relationship or risk expulsion from school, but under the right circumstances cheating can feel so damn good. By ‘under the right circumstances’ we mean ‘when playing retro games’ because, duh, we’re Retro Gaming Magazine. While there’s something to be said for plugging in a Game Shark or […]
