Trevor McFur in the Crescent Galaxy review
When the Atari Jaguar was first released in November 1993, there were a measly two games available at launch: the pack-in of Cybermorph, and also a 2D shooter called "Trevor McFur in the Crescent Galaxy". Trevor McFur is a game in the…

Missile Command 3D review
Missile Command 3D is really three games in one cart. One is a reasonably close replica of the original arcade version: an enemy has launched nuclear missiles at your cities on the bottom of the screen. As the missile contrails streak down…

Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story review
Do you remember that Bruce Lee game for the Atari 8-bit computers? That was a great game, man! Hey, do you like 2D streetfighter-style games? Yeah? Well, imagine if you made a videogame about a real-life fighter. How about if that fighter…

Checkered Flag review
One of the favorite genres of many videogame players is auto racing. Just like many other folks I enjoy racing games, and when I first read that Rebellion, the creators of the two fantastic games Alien vs. Predator and Skyhammer, had also…

Brutal Sports Football review
I don't enjoy most team sports games; they usually seem pretty boring to me. Something like Madden will put me to sleep faster than a bottle of Nyquil. However, there's one such game for the Jaguar that I can recommend to even the…

Breakout 2000 review
Remember the classic old video game BREAKOUT? You move a Pong-like paddle left and right, bouncing a ball off a wall of bricks, destroying one brick at a time as the bounces and returns in your direction. In the late 90s the company…

Atari Karts review
One of the rarest cartridge games produced for the Atari Jaguar is "Atari Karts". It was released near the end of the Jaguar's lifespan, and never had a chance to sell in substantial numbers while Atari was still ‘alive’. Atari Kart has…

Iron Soldier review
"Mech for the Jaguar" When you ask a Jaguar fan what his or her favorite game is for this console, you usually get Aliens vs Predator, Tempest 2000, or BattleSphere as the number one game. I can't say for certain that Iron Soldier is my…

Cybermorph review
"So this is what 64 bits looks like. Who let loose with the Crayolas?" When Atari were creating their new 64-bit game system in the early 1990s, they contracted a developer named Attention to Detail to create a program for demonstration of…

WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007 review
SD v.s. Raw has climbed the rung of entertainment! THQ has laid the smackdown upon wrestling gamers once again, but this time, the game really feels like new! Of course, the graphics are vastly improved over the '06 game for the PS2, but…

Earth Defense Force 2017 review
This is a game that will make you cry. You will take a look at the graphics, and come to the conclusion that they are simply not up to the job. They are, at best, last-gen. Character models are basic, animation is barely existant, detail…

Phantasy Star IV review
The long, long struggle of ancient times finally ended… The victor sacrificed the vanquished to the heavens. Four bells tolled. Four torches were lit. And the world continued for thousands of years… This is the backdrop to one of the most…

Super R.C. Pro-Am review
Radio-controlled cars are fun little gadgets, you can drive them under normal cars, try performing stunts by going up a ramp and over pits, and freak out your family pet with one, among other things. So, of course, a game where you use a…

Once upon a time, AiAi and his primate pals were enjoying yet another sunny day at their tropical island hideaway. The lives of these monkeys are a far cry from those of their brethren in the wild jungles; instead of foraging for…

The Nintendo Entertainment System had a lot of quality games. It also had a lot of arcade to console translations. Yup, the arcade fad did not hit when Playstation or Nintendo 64 started, no, it went all the way back to the days of the…

I have played a lot of Arcade games in my lifetime. Some I have enjoyed very much, and some were the biggest waste of change I have ever wasted. The Fighting game genre has always been very well represented on the arcade scene since the…

We all know what Pong is by now, it's pretty much the first commercial home based game ever released. Sure, there could be a debate as to what the first ever game was, but I'm just going to go easy and not bore you with the history of this…

Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes review
When I used to make regular trips to the arcade, I used to play Marvel vs. Capcom a lot. Since I am a huge fan of 2D fighting games, especially ones made by Capcom, I was really excited about the game. Featuring all of my favorite Marvel…
