This is going to be a tough one to get through for me. Dragon Quest II and Robotrek are very different games, and I’ve had different reactions to them when I first played them. One of them instantly grabbed my attention, and the other ended up wearing me down as I played it. Both areContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek or Dragon Quest II”

Which is better? Robotrek or Phantasy Star II
It has been a while since I’ve compared two science fiction games to each other. This time, I’ll be looking at Robotrek and Phantasy Star II. This should be fun because I really like one of these games, and the other is something that I want to like more than I do. Robotrek is aContinue reading “Which is better?

Which is better? Robotrek vs Destiny of an Emperor
This is going to be another odd one. Robotrek and Destiny of an Emperor don’t have much in common. There aren’t too many RPGs out there that are similar to them. One interesting thing is that neither game has magic. These are two games that I played on an emulator first before finding the cartridgesContinue reading “Which is better?

Which is better? Robotrek vs Sweet Home
This should be fun to go through! Sweet Home and Robotrek are very different games, and don’t play like other RPGs. With how different these games are, this will get a little strange as I go through them. After all, one is pure horror, and the other is a comedic science fiction game. Sweet HomeContinue reading “Which is better? Robotrek vs Sweet Home”
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? 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”
Which is better? Mystic Quest vs Phantasy Star III
Final Fantasy Mystic Quest and Phantasy Star III don’t have much in common. Beyond having different settings, they have very little in common aside from turn based combat. This is another starter RPG vs one targeting older fans of the genre. One is also a more traditional sequel. I have a newfound appreciation for bothContinue reading “Which is better?

The Pirates of Dark Water: A Great Hidden Gem
Pirates of Dark Water is one of my favorite beat’em ups. Interestingly, games based on this property were released on the Genesis and SNES. They are not the same game, and I like one of them much more than the other. I’ll just be going over the SNES game here. This game quickly became oneContinue reading “The Pirates of Dark Water: A Great Hidden Gem”
Rival Turf! Not Terrible but Not Great
Rival Turf! is an odd beat’em up that was butchered in localization. The game had a number of changes that really harmed its overall presentation. The story was gutted from the game. This is the first game in the Rushing Beat series. Outside of Japan, these games don’t appear to be connected in any way.Continue reading “Rival Turf! Not Terrible but Not Great”
A Look at Brawl Brothers on the SNES
Brawl Brothers is a beat’em up from Jaleco. I did review this game a while ago, but for some reason, I didn’t write a blog post for it. That is what I’m going to do today! I played this game a few years ago, and I revisited it for this. Back then, I thought theContinue reading “A Look at Brawl Brothers on the SNES”
