Hearing that Bitmap Books was creating a book called Metal Slug: The Ultimate History was music to my ears, a game series famous for its stunning pixel art and a book publisher famous for their stunning book designs, mouth-watering stuff. First impressions are spectacular, Bitmap Books constantly achieves such high standards, the cover is beautiful […]

DuckTales Woo hoo! Just the title conjures up the iconic theme tune of my youth. It’s a wonderful Disney show which originally came from a 1952 comic book series. Uncle Scrooge has become one of Disney’s most beloved anti-heroes. Debuting in a Donald Duck story and becoming so popular over decades that he finally warranted […]

Blade Force – 3DO Review

1995 was the highlight year for the 3DO, with software releases flowing and cheaper hardware hitting the stores worldwide. True, it was shown to be outclassed by the newer Sony PlayStation and Sega Saturn, but there were solid plans for the future and all looked good. Games released that year included PO’ed, Space Hulk: Vengeance […]

When we think of a platform for turn-based military strategy games we usually don’t think of the handheld consoles. That purview was generally confined to the PC market. With Nintendo’s Advance Wars for the Game Boy Advance, that premise was blown out of the water. It was an incredibly addictive experience and placed you in […]

S.C.I Chase HQ II – Commodore Amiga Review

‘Punch the Pedal’. Just one of the iconic phrases from the original Chase H.Q. still lingers in the minds of many, as does the woeful Commodore 64 and Amiga ports.

Ahh the Nintendo Gameboy, a sometimes forgotten part of my youth, this small but incredibly important handheld packed an incredible punch in the 80’s and early 90’s. I fondly remember settling down with my new Gameboy and obsessively playing the title which was packed with it – Super Mario Land. Released in 1989, this was […]

Metal Slug Advance Review

Metal Slug is one of the most highly regarded shoot ’em ups ever developed. It had dominated both the Arcades and the Neo Geo consoles for years. In 2005 that changed when a version appeared on the GameBoy Advance. This was one of the first truly authentic arcade-style Metal Slug titles to ever appear on […]

NARC – Commodore 64 Review

Winners don’t do drugs. The slogan adorned many an arcade for the best part of a decade and is rather apt for Eugene Jarvis and Williams’ hyper-violent run ‘n’ gun, NARC. After blasting its way to coin-ops in 1988, it arrived in unsuspecting homes in 1990, chased by a bunch of angry parents and holier-than-thou […]
