These are all the wrestling games on the Game Boy and Game Boy Color that I know about and could get my hands on. If I missed one, please let me know, or tell me where you would rank it. There were two that I wasn’t able to play because the copies I had weren’tContinue reading “Ranking the Game Boy Wrestling Games from Worst to Best”

SmackDown! Just Bring It a Great Game on the PS2
SmackDown!: Just Bring It is the third game in the series. It was released in November 2001 for the PS2. This is one of the many games I’ve never played, and I’m wondering what I was doing in November that caused me to miss this game. I was in my final year of high school,Continue reading “SmackDown!

Vanguard Bandits is a Good, but not Great PS1 Game
The PS1 library is full of RPGs that I’ve never heard of. Every time I think I know about them, I manage to find a few more. I know this won’t last forever, but at the moment, it feels like I keep stumbling across a new one every other month. Vanguard Bandits is one ofContinue reading “Vanguard Bandits is a Good, but not Great PS1 Game”
A Hidden Gem on the NES, Destiny of an Emperor
One of my favorite RPGs is Destiny of an Emperor on the NES. I found it one day while I was looking for a ROM to download. It was one of those days when I was home sick and didn’t have anything else to do. I spent most of the day playing it, and IContinue reading “A Hidden Gem on the NES, Destiny of an Emperor”
Tail of the Sun: An Extremely Bizarre PS1 Game
Tail of the Sun is a bizarre game. It is an action-adventure game where you play as a tribe of cavemen. You only control one at a time, and in theory, they get stronger with each generation. This is one of my favorite PS1 games because of how weird it is. It has a simpleContinue reading “Tail of the Sun: An Extremely Bizarre PS1 Game”
WWF Attitude on the Game Boy Color is a Good Version of the Game
I’m a little more forgiving when it comes to the Acclaim wrestling games. They aren’t great games, but they have a charm that I like. I consider them to be average games on the PS1, N64, and Dreamcast. The Game Boy conversions are a different matter altogether. There was no way the developers could portContinue reading “WWF Attitude on the Game Boy Color is a Good Version of the Game”
One of the First Cozy Games, Harvest Moon on the SNES
The first Harvest Moon is where the farming simulation games started for me. I remember a friend telling me about it in the late 1990s, and we eventually found the ROM online. So, my first experience with the game was on an emulator. Harvest Moon was released in 1997 on the SNES. This was veryContinue reading “One of the First Cozy Games, Harvest Moon on the SNES”
Trapt: An Underwhelming Survival Game
Trapt is an odd game in the Deception series. For some reason, Tecmo decided to drop the series name for this game. I stumbled across this game in the mid-2000s when I was in the Navy. In Japan, this game was called Kagero II, which adds to the confusion for people following this series. TraptContinue reading “Trapt: An Underwhelming Survival Game”
Let’s Compare Final Fantasy 1 to Phantasy Star 1
I’ve been in a little bit of a funk lately. I’ve been struggling to get into an RPG to write about, and I thought about some of the ones I’ve played a few times. Instead of doing individual reviews, I compared the games in three series: Phantasy Star, Dragon Quest, and Final Fantasy. For theContinue reading “Let’s Compare Final Fantasy 1 to Phantasy Star 1”
Gekido: Urban Combat, a Good Beat’em Up on the PS1
Gekido: Urban Fighters is a beat’em up for the PS1. It was released in North America in June 2000. This is one of the games that was first released in Europe and later brought to North America. I really want to like this game, but something is holding it back. The gameplay and controls areContinue reading “Gekido: Urban Combat, a Good Beat’em Up on the PS1”
