A Short Crysis Review
Far Cry was awesome, totally cool, with a wicked setting and solid game beneath the unparalleled graphics. Crysis is the sequel, the game that many people – myself included – had firmly in mind when building a new PC not long ago. Read on for my review… And please, beware of spoilers! I really loved […]

PC Engine Modem – Unveiled!
According to one Japanese source the PCE Modem, or Tsushin Booster, was released as a prototype to 20-30 PC Engine groups or fans, for monitored testing. After this, up to 100 ‘final’ units were produced before NEC pulled the plug and ordered them destroyed. The 20-30 early units were not recalled, and some of the […]

Another Site Redesign
I just can’t help myself some days. In lieu of actual content, here’s another new look. I’m very pleased with the way this turned out. Still a few parts to fix, individual article pages are still broken, but the hard part’s done. Here’s the intro from Zoom’s Phalanx for X68000. This GIF is made from […]

XCM Component to VGA Review
It’s astounding as time goes on that popular products, such as the XRGB line, become harder and harder to find. Even older versions.

Nectaris on Wii VC
NFG’s Patron Saint of Strategy Games, Military Madness, hits stateside next week. Audible waves of angst from Australia expected to coincide. According to a barely cryptic message on the Hudson forums, Wii owners will soon be blessed with Nectaris on the Virtual Console.

Send Anonymous Email To My Wii – I subject myself to hell for the greater good.
Wiimail at you! While the Wii is in its infancy, people sending cute little messages to one another is still a good deal of fun. The only problem is the hoops that Nintendo makes you jump through in order to communicate with other people (registering each other’s “friend code” or email registration). So as an […]

Castlevania Sprites!
As some of you might remember, after writing my Mario Sprites article I was given the opportunity to write a book focusing on video game sprites. Included in the book were several game sprite histories like the Mario one. One of them is Castlevania. I’ve put it online, along with some updates and what I […]
