Sega’s systems have had plenty of great RPGs, but like Rodney Dangerfield, they get no respect. Sega Dreamcast was a very intriguing system that never lived up to its full potential. Despite having internet connectivity and good graphics, the Dreamcast lacked the sales to keep up with the competition. Remember, the system suffered from the…

The Sega Genesis is a tad underappreciated. I’ve already written at length about how this console was great for the RPG genre despite the SNES getting more glory. However, that was not the only genre that flourished on the console. In fact, many games were great at the time they were released and have…

Retro gaming has a very loyal crowd regardless whether the gamer enjoys playing games via consoles, PCs or mobiles. Today’s gaming software gives players the ability to play gems that were created decades ago at very affordable prices.

Blocky graphics, pre-rendered backgrounds, and controls that could not make sense of a 3D world were all hallmarks of games on the original PlayStation console. However, it seems that for every ten duds that were released, we would get at least one timeless classic. So why does this list only have 15 PS1 games that…

If you’ve visited this site before, you might already know how deep my hatred for scalpers and overzealous eBay sellers runs. It’s a topic I revisit again and again. And if I seem a little extra upset, it’s because I really do take this issue personally. I started this site (and the YouTube channel it…

Star Wars Rogue Squadron. That’s the list. You can all go home. I’m just kidding, of course. The N64 had a lot of unforgettable titles throughout its run. You could probably think of about five N64 games that defined their respective genre in less than a minute. Unfortunately, just because a game is good doesn’t…
