Sega Saturn
RPG
Futuristic, self-proclaimed cyber punk adventure. Very slick Blade Runner style gameplay. One of Konami’s finest moments.
Sega Saturn
RPG
One of the Saturn’s finest RPGs which is more than sufficient recommendation given the plethora of on the system. Solid, workable combat system. Painstakingly detailed graphics.
Sega Saturn
Simulation
Beautifully animated sprites give this board game a wonderful isometric appearance. Fantasy Japanese creativity at its best.
Sega Saturn
Simulation
Takes a moody approach to the table top game with its heavy metal soundtrack and mystery monk figure drifting around the intro, besides the vocal interludes. But the table themselves are well thought out and further impress on the good work of Last Gladiator in this accomplished sequel.
Sega Saturn
One on One Beat Em Up
Risque girl on girl fighting game originally on the Super Famicom, all aspects of the title have been improved as you’d expect. The developers have also tweaked the saucy-ness factor in the move away from Nintendo with it now warranting a yellow over 18’s badge from Sega.
Sega Saturn
Shoot Em Up
Shooters are where the Saturn far excelled itself and Darius is thankfully no exception. A very unique feel. The robotic cat fish is a Genki favourite.
Sony Hardware
Controller
A real work of ergonomic art, such is Hori’s achievement that it has hardly changed throughout the decades. A real must for fight fans of a certain vintage.
Super Famicom
Platform
The first title to make it to the West and with the original being so full of Eastern promise plenty survived the cut. But here in its unadulterated Japanese form the true genius behind the Goemon series shines brightly drawing in many a gamer moth into its fun filled villages to gamble, eat, rest even have a blast on Gradius. Its enough just to try and take it all in – festival masks, ninja cats, the village drunk, the fisherman rushing through town with his catch, not forgetting Ohana chan in her kimono. Also known as the Legend of the Mystical Ninja.
Sega Saturn
Shooter
On the rails shooter with plenty of twists and turns: enough to generate motion sickness. Players journey through the cityscape to the edges of the stratosphere with plenty of finger powered needed to take down mechs and alien vessels.
Sega Saturn
Action
Booming Bond song in a karaoke style announces the arrival of the big budget Gundam juggernaut with slick intro with high production values evident in the nostalgic anime intro. The action is perfectly accessible as hulking mechs smash chunks out of each other following some suitably heated avatar exchange.
PS2
Platform
Based on the atmospheric anime from Akira creator Otomo san and set in an alternative Victorian England, Steam Boy must harness the power of the Steamball. But this only follows the latter half of the anime: an original off-shoot in the plot awaits. Fan service at its finest, this captures the feel of all those weird and wonderful steam powered contraptions along with the period setting very well.
PS2
One on One Beat Em Up
Arcade port is almost perfect with stirring orchestral score and dazzling, fluid special moves and combo’s. Still remains one of the finest fighters ever to grace the console scene.
PS2
One on One Beat Em Up
Tekken’s success led to its big budget feel in terms of introducing the bouts and its slick presentation. The fight mechanics have been well-worked on as much as the elaborate backgrounds, be it jungle, shopping centre with excited shoppers or the urban, underground car park complete with appropriate acoustics for a concrete fight. Not forgetting the showdown in the ring too…
PS2
Sports
‘Feel the sports emotion’ as Square tackle real world physics of racing with a plethora of Japanese sports cars. Includes the Suzuka and lesser known Tsukuba circuits.
Playstation
Simulation
Train up your chose Chocobo from cute little fledgling to champion race stallion in this twist on the horse racing game. Great for fans of Squaresoft.
Playstation
Shooter
Light gun game full of fun and a real pleasure to play as a result. The conversion doesn’t betray its arcade roots and the levels are zippy with players being thrown into the fray to stop a car heading straight for them, keep a can up in the air in a shooting version of keepy upy or shooting the fleeces off poor sheep that scamper by. Known in the West as Point Blank 2.
Playstation
One on One Beat Em Up
2D fighter looking fine on the PSX: souped up in this EX Edition so it can conjure the magic of the arcade without breaking into sweat or slowdown. Seeing the huge Juggernaut in fluid action must bring a smile to the face of Capcom’s head honcho.
Super Famicom
One on One Beat Em Up
Martial arts mayhem requiring no introduction. With such brilliant characterisation, attention to detail on the small screen and finely honed play mechanics its easy to see how Street Fighter swept the world.
Super Famicom
Platform
Also known as Genjin, this wee man has to rate as one of the coolest and talented game characters around. Spin, head slide, bite, climb trees and waterfalls, perform rhythmic gymnastics, turn into a bird, a drill, an angel, even a tank to help deal with some even more zany adversaries. Putting the fun back into gaming.
Super Famicom
Sports
Bring up your wee foal to become a champion stallion. Just don’t hang around with the shady characters at the Tokyo Race Course too much though…
Super Famicom
Platform
Putting the fun back into gaming, Konami expertly combines tight platform sections and clever 3D effect bosses with exploring the hospitable towns to stock up on octopus dumplings and rice balls. Its hard not to smile taking control of the rampant Impact Robo and running riot. The resulting explosive mixture is a firework of intense and long lasting beauty – a real gem in the series and a must have Super Famicom title.
