Golden Tee Arcade Classics is a fascinating package. As far as I can tell, it is the first time that Golden Tee has been released on console. I’m sure someone’s going to correct me on that, but I’m a fair golf fan, extending right back to the Microsoft Windows Golf on Windows 95 machines, and this is the first I’ve…
From the period where BioWare (free from EA influence and able to make good games) released Baldur’s Gate (1998) to the release of Obsidian’s Neverwinter Nights 2 (2006), we have what could be called the “golden age” for digital Dungeons & Dragons adaptations. Before that, the bulk of D&D work…

There are few things that I enjoy more than a good retro games collection. Sure, emulation exists and it’s not going anywhere any time soon, but as someone who creates for a living, I do like the idea of supporting other creators by actually buying their creations. In the retro…

It’s been quite the year for fans of niche JRPG properties. First, there was the Suikoden collection a month ago, and now it’s Lunar’s turn. Originally released for the Sega Mega CD, the first two titles in the series were pioneering and beloved titles that somehow never converted into something…
