Evening, all! It’s time for another discussion piece. We aim to do something a little different each time, and certainly we’ve not got much coverage of Japanese RPGs on this site in general. So today we’re looking exactly at just that sort of game, with Ys: The Oath in Felghana.

In the real world, the good guys rarely win
Hi there! Hope you all had a good Christmas. Our final review for the year is Corruption, which gives the site a couple of firsts. It’s our first review of a text adventure, and also the first time my stated intention to review a text adventure wasn’t just a glib throwaway line at the end […]
Buy this car to drive to work, drive to work to pay for this car
Hi there! Tonight we take a look at Test Drive Unlimited, a fact that makes us feel quite old, because we can actually remember writing about it as something new and exciting at various points a few years ago. Still, when you put the depressing march of time to one side, it’s good to be […]

Farewell to Winamp In some ways it was surprising they even lasted this long. Apart from an android version, I can’t remember much changing since Winamp 5 came out in 2003.

He’s a good man for the job, I’d say, John
Hello. In response to a couple of requests, I’ve added some more music from Puma World Football ’98 to the site.

Hello everyone. Tonight we have another guest piece from the J-Man, all about the exciting world of driving lorries. Or trucks, if you prefer. So go have a read about Euro Truck Simulator. Then when you’re done have a look around his own site, the rather fantastic Just Games Retro, which is stacked full of […]
“The Passion”
Hello there! Well, we have another review for you today. It’s Test Drive III: The Passion. Ahem. I’m sure I used to have more interesting stuff to say in these newsposts. Oh, hang on, I forgot we can add pictures now: Yeeeeaaaaaahhhh! *sets off fireworks*
I’m so excited, I’m in too deep
Hi there! I’ve been on holiday, but I managed to do a little retro-gaming while I was away. Here’s a review of an old racer called Crazy Cars III.

Good evening. Fans of football: hey, isn’t it great that the new season has started? Non-fans of football: isn’t it ridiculous that the football season has started again? It’s August, ferchrissakes. Anyway, as we’re talking about football, here’s a review of a computer game that features lots of it: Pro Evolution Soccer 2008.
