You can look for Turok 2: Seeds of Evil on either Steam, GOG or Humble Bundle in just a few short weeks on March 16th. While being somewhat of a straight port…
It’s one thing to play, review and talk about an older game to help preserve its legacy, but gaining a copy of a classic game’s actual source code is another. Silicon Enthusiasts, a group of classic video game enthusiasts (check out their YouTube channel HERE) came in possession of work stations that were once in possession of…
If you’ve read my feature about the Nintendo 64’s library of comic books games, you’ll know that there wasn’t that many released from the time in launched in September of 1996 to the time its last game, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3, arrived in 2002.

September 26th, 1996. In limited release, Nintendo launched their first ever three-dimensional console that defined how games would be played in this bold new perspective, thanks to games like Super Mario 64, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Rare’s Goldeneye 007, the latter of which showed developers how first-person shooters, a genre that exploded in the next console…

And with the final review of Turok (2008) on Xbox 360, The Year of Acclaim comes to an end. Over the past twelve months I’ve looked at fifteen games through multiple console, handhelds and console generations. While some of the games I’ve looked at have confirmed that certain games are bonafided classics or huge surprises, others are…
