	Brutal: Paws of Fury review (SCD) Reviewed on February 26, 2005 When a game is released on three different systems and you own all three systems it can be a small chore deciding what system to get which game on. With Brutal, a 2-D fighting game from the 16-bit days, I had a choice of three versions, the Genesis, the SNES and the Sega CD. If Brutal were a movie then the Sega CD would be the DVD version, the Genesis would be the cheap VHS version and the SNES would be the camcorder in the back seat of the cinema version. While the SNES reformed the game entire...
	Tottemo Pheromone review (PC) Reviewed on February 25, 2005 In the past, companies that chose to localize bishoujo games have experienced tragically short lives. Not only does this result in times where fans must survive through periods with a paucity of new releases, it means that series of games frequently fall by the wayside, forever incomplete to the English speaking world. Sometimes, these series begin never to see their rightful end, but more often certain titles, still proudly displaying numerical signs of their heritage, must make a splash with...
	Valis: The Fantasm Soldier review (GEN) Reviewed on February 25, 2005 Instead of the tale of heroine Yuko and former best bud Reiko's tragic friendship, the Valis manual talks about how Reiko is dating Rogles (King of the Dark World and general menace to society) because she thinks he's cute! What in the hell is that nonsense about?
	Virgin Roster ~Shukketsubo~ review (PC) Reviewed on February 25, 2005 You’re a loathsome son of a bitch who violently rapes innocent schoolgirls and faculty to satiate your hideous urges.
	Inuyasha: A Feudal Tale review (PSX) Reviewed on February 25, 2005 If you have the urge for some casual demon fighting action, then look no further. This game offers plenty of demons, girls with sacred arrows, a lady with a giant boomerang, and a guy who sucks up things with his hand.
	El Viento review (GEN) Reviewed on February 24, 2005 It’s not like I was a complete stranger to El Viento. Even before I first played it, I felt like I knew just about everything about the game. A slew of vivid works describing wonderfully-drawn cinemas and creative levels chock full of innovative and bizarre monsters and obstacles are scattered over the net with one thing in common — they all rate this game a Bo Derek-like “10”.
	Street Fighter II': Champion Edition review (TG16) Reviewed on February 24, 2005 Most people are going to realize that buying this one just doesn’t make any practical sense for them. But that doesn’t take anything away from the fact that NEC pulled off a small miracle to come so close with such old hardware.
	Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim review (PC) Reviewed on February 23, 2005 The major characters get plenty of chances to show their spunk, elation, despair, and grit, but the story isn't Falcom's focus. Let other companies create adventures with schizophrenic main characters! Let other companies fill their games with fifteen-minute-long mindrape cinematics! Falcom specializes in the action part of the action-RPG label, and this is where Ys VI shines.
	Resident Evil 4 review (GCN) Reviewed on February 23, 2005 Resident Evil 4
	Defenders of Oasis review (GG) Reviewed on February 22, 2005 The Gamegear was practically devoid of any RPG’s except for around 20 some, about a fifth of which came stateside. Defenders of Oasis was a RPG that happened to get lucky and find a publisher that brought it to the states. There are no idiosyncrasies that lift Defenders of Oasis above and beyond other turn based RPGS that were out at the time. It’s simply just a game that’s both brief and entertaining. Definitely worthy of your time.
	Dragon Quest VI: Maboroshi no Daichi review (SNES) Reviewed on February 22, 2005 A cool wind blows, ushering the scent of a nearby campfire into your nostrils, causing you to awaken.
	Granada review (GEN) Reviewed on February 22, 2005 Don't be turned away by the game's obscurity or the tiny blue tank's diminutive size — this remains one of the best games on Genesis, even today. Take a chance.
	Mobile Train Simulator + Densha de GO! Tokyo Kyuukou Hen review (PSP) Reviewed on February 22, 2005 But firstly, how does one go about breaking the stigma associated with such games? I could drone on about the anal retentive attention to detail required of players in order to meet the strict schedules of the Tokyo to Yokohama express lines, that however certainly isn't going to help my situation any. Perhaps then we should start with Mobile Train Simulator + Densha de GO!'s realistic good looks...
	Hokuto no Ken 7: Seiken Retsuden - Denshousha heno Michi review (SNES) Reviewed on February 21, 2005 Toei didn't learn from their mistakes when they released HNK7, a gritty Fist of the North Star game on the SNES. The prequel was poor but had a few moments where you could sit down and play the thing for a little while and have a bit, and I stress, a bit of fun out of it. I was hoping that Toei would give the game a total overhaul and improve the gameplay a lot, maybe take out the annoying Aura power thing and also change the character roster. I was overjoyed when I first browsed through at what...
	Hokuto no Ken 6: Gekitou Denshouken - Haou heno Michi review (SNES) Reviewed on February 21, 2005 Hokuto no Ken 6 is a lousy fighting game on the SNES based on the popular Fist of the North Star series. The series was pretty popular in America and Japan a few years back but nowadays it seems that there is only a small cluster of fans of this hardcore anime left. I am proud to say that I am one of those fans and those who have not watched a Fist of the North Star episode or read any of the manga novels are seriously missing out. The series was based in a post-apocalyptic period where the worl...
	Metroid: Zero Mission review (GBA) Reviewed on February 21, 2005 Aliens attack lone woman. Sexy results.
	The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening review (GB) Reviewed on February 21, 2005 That one Zelda game without Zelda in
	Guilty Gear X2 review (PS2) Reviewed on February 21, 2005 Heaven or Hell?
	Color a Dinosaur review (NES) Reviewed on February 20, 2005 Hi there, it's me, the grumpy old veteran gamer, using another medium to express my hatred towards the state of games post-1983. You know me, I'm the guy who goes to Goodwill when he wants a new game. I am wired on Vicodin during the day to treat my Carpal Tunnel-effected wrists. At night I can be found using my laptop, sprawled out on my bed because of a sudden urge to start a bidding war with some punk who will not lose the auction for a pristine Beta copy of Zork. Because it is an auth...
	Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater review (PS2) Reviewed on February 20, 2005 No massive conspiracies revolving around a staged oil spill and its subsequent cleanup structure, no horribly wrong talk of genetics and cloning, just a cool backstory that gives you a reason for being there and a reason for kicking ass.
