When we think expensive retro games, for some strange reason, Nintendo 64 games do not come to mind. This is true, despite the fact that just last year a sealed copy of Mario 64 was sold for a whooping 1.5 million dollars at an auction. Yeah, that’s way more expensive than ‘kidney’ money. This week,…
Sonic 3-D games, for the most part, have sucked. Don’t get me wrong, I highly enjoyed Sonic Adventure back in 1999-2000, but that might be the only 3-D game in the franchise that I thought was any good. My son (who is 5 years old) loves Sonic, he loves Mario too (and has played dozens…
Final Fantasy is a long-time running series populated by good to great games. But there are a few exceptions to that rule. I have made an effort to list the five worst main Final Fantasy games of all time on this list. This is not a list based on Metacritic or GameRankings. It is a list…
The original Rogue Legacy was the second roguelike I ever played; the first was the legendary The Binding of Isaac. I recall Rogue Legacy being a fun side-scroller roguelike and playing it for hours on end. However, I whole heartedly believe its successor, Rogue Legacy 2, is a vast improvement and easily deserves a spot…
Namco’s Tales series is popular these days thanks to the recent (successful) release of Tales of Arise. However, JRPG fans have been around this series for a quarter century. Despite the long running nature of the series, the PlayStation pair of “Destiny” titles both remain the most legendary and hard to find, making them “kidney”…
Traditionally, when talking about great years for gaming, 1998 is often referred to as the greatest year for gaming ever. A close look at 2010 showcases a gaming list (at the top level) that is as good, or nearly as good, as the legendary 1998 top ten best games’ list. 2010 brought us games in…
News and recent trailer of the upcoming Final Fantasy XVI have been exciting for many FF fans for a variety of different reasons. First, the game is seen as some sort of rebirth for the series after nearly two decades of unpopular mainline Final Fantasy games. Second, the game’s producer, Naoki Yoshida, has a good…
Bernie Stolar passed away this week (at age 75). He is best remembered within the world of video games for his exploits as Sony Computer Entertainment of America’s Vice President during the PlayStation’s early days and as Sega’s President of the American branch during the late Saturn early Dreamcast era. He successfully laid the groundwork…
When we think about old classic turn-based Japanese Role-Playing games, Final Fantasy Tactics and the Shining Force series come to mind. A game that is not often mentioned, and it should be (mentioned) among those great titles, is Dragon Force. Dragon Force is a tactical Sega RPG. It was published by Sega in Japan, but…
As we approach the end of the 2000s decade, we begin to see some of the most refined games from the PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 era. As always, we took off the list games with less than 20 reviews to their name, and games that had multiple versions on the list. We have removed versions…
