Mega Drive
RPG
Old school RPG with plenty of combat potential to beef up the players posse of vagabonds to turn them into valiant warriors, especially with some well spent gold down the local armoury. Fans of the 16 Bit era RPG genre will lap this up.
Super Famicom
Puzzle
A puzzle off-shoot of the Ganbare Goemon world in which the rotund Ebisumaru must be guided through isometric puzzles through manipulating the terrain that lies ahead of him. Plenty of familiar looking chaps pop up and bonus items add an extra dimension to gameplay whether or not to go out of the way to collect them. But bumbling Ebisumaru plods on regardless of the surrounds so care must be taken to keep him onboard.
Playstation
RPG
Epic action RPG adventure with the emphasis more on hack and slash rather than anything too cerebral. The RPG elements involve boosting your attributes through collecting crystals defeated foes leave behind. Beautiful graphical style in the style of a Hong-Kong fantasy flick.
PSP
Action
Battle to save the country against the invading force mech on mech in this anime inspired action title. Looks very sharp on the small screen with thoughtful attention to detail such as weather effects and in the anime cut scenes. Subtitled Dead Aggressor.
Sega Saturn
Shoot Em Up
Up there with the best of Saturn blast fests, which is no mean feat. Unique lock on system allows you to unleash untold destruction. Massive bosses. Clever sprite scaling makes for a great looking Tokyo to fly over as enemies scale in and out of range. Lovely attention to detail as shrapnel plummets to earth.
Gamecube
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.

PS3
One on One Beat Em Up
Doesn’t seem fair that Darth Vader can elevate an opponent whilst strangling them remotely, but it certainly is a pleasure to be able to test his lightsabre skills against the Soul Calibur crew, complete with the swishing hum sound effect. Happy days.
Sony Hardware
Controller
Limited Edition Soul Calibur themed joystick for the PS3 with lovely finish, but more importantly Hori’s sturdy design and perfectly, zen – balanced layout of buttons – not too spacious or finger cramp inducing. Satisying clicks add to the contentment of executing a tricky special move – the accompanying joystick sound soon becomes more familiar than the dexterous manoeuvre itself.
Playstation
One on One Beat Em Up
Few fighters manage to wield as much weaponry and yet remain true to a balanced bout as Namco brings a true arcade experience back to the PSX cognoscenti. Arenas are impressive with rice fields, Chinese temples and rafts on water all linked by the common denominator of being able to ring out. Yet it’s the character design where Namco has made most graft and its fruits are a real roster of splendid scrappers.

Super Famicom
Action
Super Famicom take on the famed laser disk title that wowed arcade gamers back in the early nineties. The action tries to replicate the hurried need to react quickly to the changing terrain and forced scrolling which would test the joypad dexterity of even the GamesMaster himself.
Super Famicom
Shooter
Take on giant mecha adversaries that dart around onscreen in this anime themed light scope game from the big N themselves.
Dreamcast

Gyrate to the beat with the sexy Space Channel reporter Ulala. Just don’t ask about the story! Unique feel to graphics, full of futuristic frolics. A Dreamcast must have.

PS2
Rhythm
Ulala once again bust’s a groove whilst looking fab in her futuristic attire in this sleek Sega production. A great addition over the prequel is the two player co-operative mode which sees control of Ulala split with one player taking the direction pad, the other the buttons and frequent off screen scraps as to who was at fault for the missed hip gyration. Look out for a guest appearance from Michael Jackson on one of the stages, but his moves suffer in comparison to our Ulala. Much more affordable than the DC release.

Guide Book
Going by the title of ‘Sugoku Sugoi’, (or ‘Superbly Super’), this guide book covers both the PS2 and Dreamcast versions of the game. Full colour bringing the vibrancy of the game alive.
PC Engine Super CD ROM
Simulation
Known as ‘Starblazers’ in the West, this space simulation is based on the true classic, which even has its own exhibitions in Japan and its own distinct feel in an over crowded market place. Yamato is a flying naval ship and also the believed to be the essence of the Japanese spirit. The game captures the romantic overtones of the original anime.
Super Famicom
Shooter
A very faithful arcade conversion lacking only in cigarette burns in the cabinet and jammed coin slot. With added battle mode. Hard to put down even today. Subtitled The Original Game.

PC Engine HU Card
Shoot Em Up
Genki doesn’t remember any shortage of 100 Yen coins, nor 10 Pence pieces for that matter; just a strange, cigarette burnt machine in the middle of the local toy shop. A must for any self respecting retro heads collection as a true piece of gaming history. Subtitled ‘The Revival Day’, additions include powerups and vector graphics.
