When Sega took the quite Western subgenre of first person RPGs and turned it into an early cinematic experience without losing its core aspects. It looks very beautiful, moves smoothly and is a very...
A true Sega classic that mixes two genres that are by no means my cup of tea. However, with such rich, anime-like aestethics, that nice music, a truckload of memorable characters and fast, easy to...
Another mahjong/Shanghai game with a twist: having to guide up to five characters with their corresponding backgrounds and - quite good, it's Sunsoft after all - BGM (which can be swapped through the...
OK, second post about this game… A noble attempt to tell some kind of fantasy tale on an artsy enviroment. Visually brilliant, good sound, so-so gameplay that demands some self discipline from the...
22 now.
This game is pure bliss: the closest thing we have to an actual Shinobi port (that is, until Tryphon finishes his awesome port), better than the arcade, pure Sega arcade action…
Yet there's...
So you get the RPG/arcade style of Cadash, put a swordsdude that looks like Seiya from Saint Seiya (man, Masami Kurumada had a huge influence on that time's Japanese gaming aestethics) but he's...
Sooo…
- That feeling of being in your local arcade, only without the smells, the bullies, the unpolite personnel and the drug dealers? Check.
- Graphics with nifty effects? Check
- No slowdown...
5 years have passed and now I'm able to play this thing on real hardware. And it's still an underrated game with many things to like, IMHO, but it's true that the lack of a save feature hurts it....
Still brilliant. I liked this as a kid, but as an adult I'm enjoying it even more. Memorize the enemy patterns and exercise my fingers with that pumping jazzy music and almost pastel color palette…...
Simplistic as it can be: make your mecha, have it fight on an arena. Toshokan games were kind of the actual budget games on current gen consoles: mediocre and an acquired taste that depends solely on...
Half a racer, half a shoot 'em up, all excitement. It may be one of the fastest games of the system, and despite having huge and quite elaborate sprites (backgrounds are nothing to write home about),...
More adrenaline-pumping motorbike action with slight enhancements on all the aspects of the game: various bikes to choose between (once you get enough dough to get 'em, of course), better sprites,...
A true classic I havent played until adulthood. It combines a simplistic yet outrageous concept and dresses it with good graphics (check that parallax on the background, the slopes, and how can you...
I remember my first impression of the game being a fit of laughter at the ridiculous music, just as the Sega logo appears. The game itself is awful, and has no level for Ma-Ti. The Planeteers'...
Here's Naughty Dog as an itty-bitty, teenie-weenie studio before the likes of Crash Bandicoot, Jak & Daxter, Nathan Drake and Chloe Frazer or Spidey made them the juggernauts they are today. Despite...
Another happy owner of an original, physical Puggsy copy. I still like it a lot, to be fair. Looks and sounds beautiful, has a huge gameplay variety and despite being very hard sometimes it manages...
Thanks to the translation the awesome coders of our community have provided us with, we are now able to enjoy this kinda cult-ish game that can be seen as somewhat of an antecessor to Shenmue and...
On one hand, I don't like this game: slow, boring, unfair and silly. On the other hand, the arcade was like this, too, and if we take this into account, my opinion is that Rastan Saga 2 can be taken...
Part strategy, part puzzle, part fast paced button-mashing arcade and all fun. It's, indeed, a half-forgotten Atari classic that translates into our MD/GENs easily. Of course, it gets even better...
5 years after my first mini-review, this game is still awesome. However, I can't help but think what the heck is Rutger Hauer doing here. Is he secret agent Roy Batty?
We didn't got a[n official] Bubble Bobble port, but we got its sequel. An excellent port featuring the original Rainbow Islands and an MD exclusive extra mode with different enemies. There are only...
I don't think it was that bad. I have no experience with the original arcade, so the only thing I see here is a fairly competent and fun shooter. It's a bit bland on looks but contains a nice...
I think this one has grown on me the more I played it. Sure, it's almost ugly-looking (sounds pretty good though), and even more if we compare this with its big arcade sibling. But I can't help but...
I'll have to try this way, then. Thanks for the advice.
