NBA Jam 99 is a good, not Great Game
NBA Jam 99 is another game in the Acclaim branch of this franchise. This game was a console exclusive, as versions of the game were made for the N64 and Game Boy Color. It was made by Iguana, who had handled the other ports of NBA Jam games. For some reason, the N64 version was…
NBA Jam Extreme is Good but far from Great
Do you remember the game NBA Jam Extreme? I didn’t, and I don’t even remember seeing this game in stores. There are a handful of games that I remember seeing at stores like Best Buy, Meijer, and Circuit City throughout the 1990s. This wasn’t one of them. I do applaud Acclaim’s restraint here. They could’ve…
NFL QB Club 2000 is Not Great
NFL Quarterback Club 2000 is where the series really fell apart. This game was released in 1999 on the N64 and the Dreamcast. I’ll be looking at the N64 version, and I’m not planning on getting the Dreamcast version. Given the review scores from 1999, this is going to suck! Iguana handled the previous games…
Better than the Last Game: NFL QB Club 99
NFL Quarterback Club 99 was an N64 exclusive. It was released in 1998 and is the fifth game in Acclaim’s football series. Unlike the previous game in the series, the developer was only working on versions of this game for the N64 and the PC. The PC version was never released. There were a few…
NFL QB Club 98 on the N64 has Great Graphics
NFL Quarterback Club 98 was an exclusive for the N64 and was released in 1997. It was published under the Acclaim Sports banner and was programmed by Iguana. This was the first football game announced for the N64. Brett Favre was the spokesman for this game. This was before he started stealing welfare money from…
Super Smash TV: A Great Arcade Port for the Genesis
Super Smash TV isn’t a sequel to Midway’s arcade game or the NES game. It was released in 1992 and is a graphical improvement over the NES version. I’ll be looking at the Genesis version of the game for this review. Acclaim used Flying Edge to publish this game. It is a little odd, but…
Smash TV: Great Arcade Game, Fun on the NES
Smash TV is a twin-stick shooter that was originally released in the arcades in 1990. It was later ported to just about everything. Midway developed the arcade game, and Acclaim published the ports. Some of the ports were published by Acclaim’s other publishing labels, such as Flying Edge. Because of the game’s control scheme, I’m…
Beetlejuice: One of the Worst NES Games
Beetlejuice was a huge deal for a short period of time, much like other fads that entered pop culture. I remember the movie, the cartoon, and some of the merchandise surrounding it. Heck, my school picture from kindergarten has me wearing a Beetlejuice t-shirt. I vaguely remember playing the NES game. My friend Joey rented…
Welcome to Elderfield, a Promising Horror Game
Welcome to Elderfield is a cozy RPG that uses a Lovecraftian setting. This is one of those odd times that I have to use the word cozy to describe a horror game. The Steam page describes it as an RPG, which is a nice twist on the farming simulation genre. This game has many of…
NFL QB Club 96 on the SNES Looks Great
NFL Quarterback Club 96 is the follow up to the first game in the series. This game was released in late 1995 and uses the active roster for that season. The biggest improvement made to this game is having the NFLPA license. This means you’re actually playing as your favorite players, or at least the…
