I wasn’t sure what to expect when I picked up In Your House on the PS1/PSX. Aside from being a WWF wrestling game, I knew nothing about the game. I think I was expecting something else, but I wasn’t disappointed with what the game had to offer. This game plays like a sequel to theContinue reading “WWF In Your House is a Good Arcade Wrestling Game”

WWF WrestleMania on the PS1 is Disappointingly Average
This is fine. It isn’t all that special, and it isn’t something I would want to revisit. It is a good-looking port of the arcade game, but there are better wrestling games on the Play Station 1. This version of WWF WrestleMania: The Arcade Game is closer to the Sega Genesis version. It has theContinue reading “WWF WrestleMania on the PS1 is Disappointingly Average”
The Best Games I Played in 2023
I played a ton of great games this year. Some were better than others, and I wanted to revisit a few games. I also missed out on some fantastic games that I’ll have to look at next year. Much of the year consisted of wrestling games, shooters, and beat’em ups. I was working on aContinue reading “The Best Games I Played in 2023”
Tactics Ogre is One of the Best RPGs
The Ogre Battle Saga is divided into two sets of video games. The Ogre Battle games focus on grander stories about the big countries in the game’s world. Tactics Ogre focuses on the local conflicts and takes place on islands. The Tactics Ogre games tell more personal stories about the people who participate in war.Continue reading “Tactics Ogre is One of the Best RPGs”
A Review of the Wizardry Novel by James E. Reagen
Wizardry: The League of the Crimson Cresent is fine. It is a run-of-the-mill fantasy story where the hero is transported to another world and becomes the prophesized chosen one. The story is fun, but it left me with a handful of questions, some about the plot and one about the branding. I’ll get into thisContinue reading “A Review of the Wizardry Novel by James E. Reagen”
Sega Genesis Wrestling Games Ranked From Worst to Best
This was an interesting trip through the Sega Genesis library. I was expecting a few more wrestling games, but only five were released in North America. A few other arcade fighting games exist, but I wouldn’t count them as wrestling games. My original plan was to look at two additional games. I was going toContinue reading “Sega Genesis Wrestling Games Ranked From Worst to Best”
WWF RAW on the Genesis Looks and Plays Great
WWF RAW on the Sega Genesis is a great-looking game. It still has that annoying tug-of-war control scheme that devolves into button mashing. Thankfully, this is the last time I have to discuss the controls. There is a lot to do in this game. You have plenty of game modes to keep you busy, andContinue reading “WWF RAW on the Genesis Looks and Plays Great”
Saturday Night Slam Masters: The Best Arcade Wrestling Game
I like the SNES version of this game more than this one. They have the same basic arcade-style gameplay, but the SNES version is more fun. This is still a great version of the game. Saturday Night Slam Masters is an easy game to play. The game has little depth, but the over-the-top characters andContinue reading “Saturday Night Slam Masters: The Best Arcade Wrestling Game”
WWF Royal Rumble: Hamstrung by a Bad Control Scheme
WWF Royal Rumble on the Sega Genesis looks good. The gameplay is still repetitive, and I don’t like the control scheme. The control scheme doesn’t ruin the game, but it is annoying. The bright spot in this game is the graphics. It is a good-looking game, even if it has flaws. This game looks closeContinue reading “WWF Royal Rumble: Hamstrung by a Bad Control Scheme”
WWF Super WrestleMania Looks Worse on the Genesis
I’m going to play these games in order, unlike what I did with the SNES trilogy of games. WWF Super WrestleMania doesn’t look as good on the Genesis as it does on the SNES, and it uses the same button-mashing control scheme. I wouldn’t say that I like this game that much. I had aContinue reading “WWF Super WrestleMania Looks Worse on the Genesis”
