Phantasy Star III and IV are pretty different games. While they’re in the same series, they weren’t made by the same development team. These games have different settings, graphical styles, and storytelling techniques. Phantasy Star III is set in the far future. It takes place after the events of the fourth game, which makes thingsContinue reading “Which is better? Phantasy Star III or IV”

Phantasy Star II and IV have a lot of similarities, aside from the setting and gameplay. Their plots are very close to being the same.

It is kind of fun that Sega was so consistent with what was in the Phantasy Star games. I don’t have too manyContinue reading “Which is better? Phantasy Star or Phantasy Star IV”
Phantasy Star IV: The Best RPG on the Genesis
Phantasy Star IV is one of my favorite retro RPGs. I like it more than most of the games on the SNES, NES, PS1, and PS2. There isn’t too much that comes close to it.

Mindscape’s NCAA Football Game, It is not Great
This is such a strange game. NCAA Football for the Sega Genesis and SNES were both published by Mindscape. These games were released in 1994, and this was a one off game on the home console. This isn’t some in depth experience. It is similar to other college football games that only have a handfulContinue reading “Mindscape’s NCAA Football Game, It is not Great”
Which is better? Final Fantasy II or Dragon Quest
Final Fantasy II and Dragon Quest are very different games. One of them is very basic, and the other is more experimental. Both games have some good things in them, but they aren’t the RPGs that I would hold up as being great games. Dragon Quest was great for the time it was released. ThereContinue reading “Which is better? Final Fantasy II or Dragon Quest”

Which is better? Final Fantasy II or Dragon Quest II
Final Fantasy II and Dragon Quest II are games that I’ve changed my mind about over the last few years. Before I started making YouTube videos and blog posts about video games, I liked Dragon Quest II and really disliked Final Fantasy II. Now, things have changed a little for each game. Most of myContinue reading “Which is better? Final Fantasy II or Dragon Quest II”

Which is better? Robotrek vs Final Fantasy
Robotrek and Final Fantasy are pretty different games. They have different approaches to just about everything, but there are a handful of similarities. Many of them are because these are both turn based RPGs, and they have similar approaches to telling their story. These are two of my favorite RPGs. Final Fantasy was the firstContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek vs Final Fantasy”
