Sony Hardware
Controller
The Para Para dance craze swept Japan like the cherry blossom front with deeply tanned girls and bleached blond boys tossing about there limbs in the clubs from Shibuya to Sekijo. This controller allows players to follow the onscreen prompts by passing over the sensors at the right time. Good exercise and very useful for night clubbing (in a slightly retro fashion.)
Sony Hardware
Controller
Improve your dance step using this DDR mat compatible with the Playstation titles. Far better to practise in the comfort of your own home before unleashing your moves on the arcade groupies. Genki keeps the curtains firmly shut when grooving and gyrating, for now…
Sony Hardware
Accessory
These caps fit over the direction controller of the PS2 controller to give the pad greater versatility.
Nintendo 64
Puzzle
The solid puzzle planning of Tetris meets the lush presentation of Disney in Capcom’s expert hand. A very fine version to savour.
Neo Geo AES
One on One Beat Em Up
Strictly adhering to the if it ain’t broke adage, SNK delivers more stomach ripping action in this slightly tweaked sequel with four new characters. Superb.
Dreamcast
RPG
One of the early releases on the Dreamcast and the developers were still finding their feet. Still, all the elements of a Sega RPG are included for the fans. A steady and solid enough title.
Nintendo Hardware
Multitap
Bomberman themed multitap for the Super Famicom that takes inspirational from one of the finest multiplayer titles and has simple colour coded slots to help players remember who they are when burning the midnight oil on gaming sessions.
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.
Mega Drive
Simulation
Known in the West as Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there is often little romance to be found on the battlefield as your troops fight bravely and bitterly to pursue your ultimate goal of unifying the middle kingdom under your control. Training is important to be able to defeat opposing foes as Koei shows where it made its hard earned money.
GameBoy Advance
RPG
The epic opus does itself more than justice of the GBA with a high level of detail poured into this labour of love. The RPG action translates well to the dimensions of the smaller screen and the sprite based world will pull a heart string with gamers long enough in the tooth to remember the 16Bit era.
Sega Saturn
A Bit Special
Sega Saturn related digital magazine with RPG Club, Barbara’s Game Experience Corner, Digital Gallery and Girls Collection featuring Sakura Wars and Virtua Fighter 3. Collectable kitsch.
Sega Saturn
A Bit Special
Sega Saturn related magazine with ‘Virtua Fighter’ comic of Sarah Bryant, playable demo of ‘Layer Section’ and interview with the ‘Nights’ team amongst others.
PS2
RPG
Western style ‘Dungeons & Dragons’ fantasy RPG whose dark caverns never saw light of day in the Occident.
PS2
Action
Konami takes on Capcom’s survival horror crown with similar camera angles, yet Silent Hill 3 cranks up the psychological tension to Hitchcockian heights. You know the bottom of the car is about to fall out, you just never know when in this rust belt town.
PS2
Action
Sega delivers an arcade experience with all the thrills and gut spills an adrenalin soaked ninja with a very sharp katana can deliver. Super fast, Shinobi zips around on screen slicing through opponents with special gratification to be gained from the combo’s. But it takes all the zen patience of a Buddhist monk to beat this baby.
Playstation
Platform
The third release in the Jumping Flash series has some tight controls as you bunny hop from sky scraping platforms in full 3D. Uber cute and cuddly kawaii adversaries give this an adorable Japanese feel. Mission based to add diversity to the challenges.
PS2
Action
Set in the warring period in Japan’s history, this title involves plenty of action in the battlefield with a bit of tactical nous needed every now and then to help your quest. Take on rival clans in fully pitched battles to become the ultimate Daimyo, but be warned desire can never be quenched; so choose your battles carefully so as not to stretch your resources too thinly on the ground. Known as Samurai Warriors in the West.
Sega Saturn
Sports
A tasty piece of programming making the PlayStation eat humble pie. Crisp graphics running a a high frame rate truly brought the arcade experience home. But gameplay is what counts – the developer’s extensive rally car physics research oozes from every powerslide.
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.
XBOX
Sports
The beauty of Konami’s soccer sensation is that there aren’t any flaws in the AI allowing the same goal to be scored each time making each time you hit the onion bag special. Total football reaches the Xbox.
Gamecube
Sports
Genki feared the worse when the news leaked of a GC debut sequel of the delightful Wave Race. Nintendo well and truly delivered the goods keeping the originals relentless, arm pit tingling gameplay and improving the water transparencies beyond anything seen before. Truly miraculous effects that remain cutting edge even today.
