PS2
Action
A bedazzling, breathtaking but above all believable yarn spun by Sony that brings you in to the delightful Ico world in a way that’ll surely see it be entered on the tapestry of the PS2’s legacy. A simple must have masterpiece bursting with emotive gameplay.
Playstation
Sports
Crazy chaos as Crash hits the road and lives up to his name as racers spin and bump around the locales with multiplayer mayhem a real treat.
PC Engine Super CD ROM
RPG
Princess Minerva knows a thing or two about fighting and gathers together a posse of suitably skilled female protagonists after the annual fighting tournament. Together you must fight through towns and dungeons to overthrow the evil Queen of Whistler.
Dreamcast
Simulation
Roommania is not you average game as players take the role of a young lad locked up in his small apartment. Well hes not imprisoned or anything, at least physically. Its possible to control their actions, a little like a 3D Little Computer People update. Actions include watching TV, having a smoke under the kotatsu, quick go on the PC, watch a bit of TV. Unusual and very in the distinctive Sega Dreamcast era style.
Sega Saturn
Simulation
Stunning visual impact showing the effort that went into this little known Blade Runner inspired RPG that snuck out in the Dreamcast’s shadow. Well worthy of reinvestigating.
Sega Saturn
Simulation
The Sakura series has a huge following and this is a mish mash of sub games, interviews, songs and of course anime from the celebrated series.
Sega Saturn
One on One Beat Em Up
Genki still enjoys the confined feel of Viper’s arenas and the delight found in smashing your opponents armour off. Japanese version contains Pepsi Man as one of the many hidden characters.
Sega Saturn
One on One Beat Em Up
Many believe this should have been released with the Saturn instead of the original version. Yet the pressure of hardware release deadlines meant that the somewhat rushed VF came out first and this superior VF Remix a few months later.
Sega Saturn
Shooter
Jaw dropping visuals and a story whose threads gently wrap around you before you realise you are cocooned in it. Whilst gameplay is on the rails the 360 degree firing range makes it feel unrestricted as you fly against hordes of critters to drop them from the sky. A Saturn must have title that announced the new generations arrival.
PC Engine CD ROM
Shoot Em Up
Data West works wonders with the Engine creating great effects such as parallax, multidirectional, dual playfield scrolling all at light speed – its just a shame you’re not given an inch to appreciate them. Or maybe Genki has been weaned too much on modern titles recently? On second thoughts, maybe not. This is one tough cookie. Only for the hardcore.
Super Famicom
Puzzle
Players zip around screen in their space ship looping around the on screen blocks to keep the screen clear, in this intriguing twist on the Tetris formula, full of X Files style UFO conspracies.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Fine Famicom version which is very playable title in it’s own right. Detachable arm power ups rock!
Super Famicom
RPG
The hugely popular series shows its true colours as players explore walled dungeons, tree lined mountain-scapes and towns in the familiar 3D dungeon explorer style. Plenty of intriuguing folks to meet along your quest with items to boost your inventory and a battle never too far around the corner.
PC Engine HU Card
Sports
Classic Video System title from back in 1989 which stirs memories of Olympics past as players try to get their team, perhaps tactically wearing shorts a little too tight, to become the best in the world.
Super Famicom
Puzzle
Colourful characters as bright as the descending spheres which send immoveable blocks raining down on your opponents side of the screen. Plenty of emotion in both victory and defeat with Konami’s polish in presentation in ample evidence. Full title: Tsuyoshi Shikkari Shinasai Taisen Puzzle Dama (or loosely translated as: Sort it out Tsuyoshi.)
Super Famicom
One on One Beat Em Up
Risque girl on girl fighting game also converted to the Saturn. The developers have tweaked the saucy-ness factor to keep inline with Nintendo, but it still stands up as a solid fighter with smooth mechanics.
PC Engine HU Card
Puzzle
Columns style match the falling blocks gameplay, but with a twist required to fit the shapes together adding an extra dimension to gameplay. Blocks become plants and animals on later levels to spice up the action. Comes with an extra GT mode to allow the handheld owners to link up for two player action.
Famicom Cart
Action
A more refined look in line with the PC Engine incarnations of the bomb and run blast from Hudson. A simple concept, but remains the height of multiplayer gaming and, as later versions prove, the formula is best suited to the full screen, 2D look.
Gamecube
Action
Capcom’s surprise decision to bring its Resident Evil series to the GameCube shocked those who knew Nintendo’s policy on mature themed games almost as much as those dogs jumping through the window shocked Genki. Looks absolutely wonderful on the GC making it well worthy of a revisit.
Wonderswan
Simulation
Cherish your little cheeky chappy Hamster with lots of loving and care. Meet friends and sample the variety of mini games to savour with your furry friend such as collecting peanuts, not forgetting to enjoy the odd spin on the wheel or roll in the ball.
Mega Drive
Utilises the official license and some nice graphics, with little touches such as on court logos, to make a sports game that still generates plenty of nostalgia from gamers of a certain vintage. Particularly in the UK where Mr Jordan was building up a basketball frenzy, no doubt helped by some nice boots for fans to sample.
