PC Engine HU Card
Sports
Tests the drivers concentration as the break neck speed employed by the programmers ensures its essential to keep a beady eye on the hints as to which corner comes next. Very nice celebratory scene in reaching the podium, for those who appreciate their sprites.
Merchandise
Magazine
Features a guide to the Famicom from 1983 to 1991 and a look into Treasure the developer.
PS2
Sports
Daley Thompson has a lot to answer for as the official Olympic license gives this modern day incarnation a bit more of a refined approach to the varying disciples next to its more down to earth, retro podium runner.
PS Vita
Action
The title translates as Ink Devil and the style is like Okami meets Sega Saturn Taromaru meets Kazekiri from the PC Engine. Thats if those latter two games had been drawn using a calligraphy brush. Beautiful screens as players call on traditional mythology to help them progress. The fear of being chased by the giant in stage three as just his shadow looms large in the background with Kyotos Daiji in the background is a fabulous experience up their with the thrill of collecting all the Satellite components in Goldeneye against the clock. Truly gorgeous.
Nintendo 64
Board Game
Card battle game well suited to multiplayer matches with the favourites of the Goemon world making appearances in various guises. The setting is full of Japanese cultural references like dango sweets and the battles take place to Hokusai style background paintings, but at times its not so clear if the programmers have only been eating shiitake mushrooms in their miso soup or not.
Mega Drive
Sports
Football blast from the J League’s hey day playing a nice, arcadey kick about. A real laugh with four players using the multitap, but arguments may ensue over who gets to be Gary’s Grampus.
Miscellaneous Games
A Bit Special
Ladangel, Scoring, Tennis, Maze, Bandits, Mars Man and Space War. A great compilation of original games which test Nintendo’s definition of original.
Miscellaneous Games
A Bit Special
Jam packed with seven titles: Frog Prince, Bounce Ball (Pinball), Spar (Urban Champion), Cobra of Sky, Rescue of Kuck (Donkey Kong Jr.), Bounce (Mappy) and Surface Fire (Centipede). Frog Prince is a competent Mario Bros clone complete with pipes, venus fly traps and warp zones. Players even grab a flag in a run and jump at the end. Very impressive, but not too sure what Miyamoto san would make of it.
Miscellaneous Games
A Bit Special
Seven in one cart which features original titles including Boat Race, Mario Bros clone Roge Brer, Chack n Pop tribute Bomb, Warp Man look a like Aether, Penguin (which is like Nuts & Milk), Twinbee wanabee Van-1 and Conte Energy which is reminiscent of Lode Runner. So whilst we say original the games are not pirated, but are certainly based on existing ideas. Good value little pack.
Soundtracks
Soundtrack
The appropriately named Sakura Flamingo Laboratory takes on the popular Dreamcast shooter Crows and adds its own flamboyant twist to the STG action. The crack developer unit takes influence from many forms of media and the soundtrack is in keeping with its experimental style.
Sega Saturn
Sports
Impressive 3D and scaling for a machine not meant to be suited to the third dimension. Crystal Dynamics shows off its 3DO programming knowledge gained on the Saturn with plenty of use of the official license in names and digitised avatars.
Wii
Rhythm
Updated version of the arcade smash with plenty more tracks to choose from and where moving the Wii remote and nunchuck around in time to the beat is the central premise. Preach no more: this is the game to convince non gamers to get involved and samba. Bursting with colour and sunshine – at least when you’re hitting the beats. Plus Sega fans will appreciate the appearance of Sonic and Space Channel 5’s Ulala.
Super Famicom
Platform
Side scrolling platform shoot ’em up with giant sprites and a rich colour palette as players pilot a mech against a legion of cannon fodder. Often the action comes down to a battle with a single mech at a time and the shields and ability to fly come in handy at out manoeuvring a tricky opponent. Tasty cut scenes build up the tension and the standard of presentation is high.
PC Engine CD ROM
A Bit Special
With anime, a chance for romance in Club UB with Shigeko, Chinatsu or Miyo, an interactive comic and a Totoro RPG; theres plenty on this CD Rom based magazine to keep the budding import fan and PC Engine collector well happy.
PS3
Sports
Sonys Liverpool office attains F1 nirvana with this amazingly accurate representation of the sport only missing the smell of burning rubber and fuel fumes. Not only is the game almost indistinguishable from the Sunday afternoon sport, but the cars handling is true to the laws of physics making for smooth handling Ea mistake is always the drivers fault (or one of the keener competitors!) Includes a career mode to play from the humble beginnings up to the podium with all the official F1 data included from the 2006 season. Attaining new echelons of excellence.
PS2
Action
With interesting side quests such as finding all the mushrooms, players get to gallop through the wide, expansive game area on steeds in a great feel of freedom like a nomad through Outer Mongolia with the wind effect adding to the feel. Strewn throughout the world are what looks like Roman ruins. Pierced with strong shards of like amongst the atmospheric shadows, players negotiate tight crevices, Yet few will forget their first encounter with the Colossus. Up there with Ico on the system and one of the finest on any system. Beautiful, emotive, immense, Colossus. Known as the Shadow of Colossus in the West.
Gamecube
Action
Gets right under your skin from the off as the sense of foreboding grows with each new assailant from the legions of the undead. The detail is a little too much at times.
Mega Drive
Sports
Fine take on the sport in a nostalgic and simple, 16Bit way. Yet the uncluttered take helps players focus on getting the ball in the hoop without any perspective problems.
PS Vita
One on One Beat Em Up
A collaboration between the publishing arm of Media Works, who made the likes of Catherine and the fine reads in the Dengeki Dreamcast and Saturn magazines, and Sega to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Dengeki. As such speed lines and sleek characters in bike jump suits meet the fine mechanics of a Sega fight title. Doujin designs but a fight engine honed by Segas arcade experience as Akiba meets the master carpenter. Certainly put a flutter in Genki’s calloused fingers and a neon flash in the eye.
PS3
Action
Genki must confess Biohazard gives us the jitters. Not quite as much as Konami’s Silent Hill – at least you know where you are with a brain hungry zombie, whereas its hard to suss many of Konamis nightmarish creatures. But we digress – Operation Raccoon City seems pretty free of friendly, furry forest dwellers and a much more trigger happy, FPS style of game than the original. Those of the old school may find it hard to fire off so many rounds, yet there is polish a plenty and a fright round most corners for those of mild disposition.
PS3
Action
Ancient China never looked so good as Koei not only takes advantage of the beautiful setting, but also uses the artistic license provided by rich mythology as players fend off tigers and use a giant mushroom to sweep away the armies of ten thousand. The lighting effects and sheer amount of on screen action truly boggle.
