Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D review

It's a high score galore!

One thing I miss about being young with saved up pocket money is spending it on arcade games. It's a magical experience as a child, going to the arcades and blasting coins out on games like Time Crisis. Sadly I have missed those times, I respect having money too much to spend it on a whim and arcade machines... read more

Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest review

A fantastic evolution of the original adventure

RPGs are a certain breed of game. Not only are they different from the typical platformer of the NES days in mechanics, it's a different experience entirely and one that we weren't incredibly familiar, nor comfortable with.
