Grounseed PC-98 – PA47

Grounseed is practically unheard of and that’s a shame. Developed by Studio Twinkle and published by EXIT in 1996, it’s a stripped down minimalist JRPG at its core, but that’s not what’s important. Where this game stands out is that it has some of the best FM synth around…we’re talking mind blowing! http://media.blubrry.com/pixelatedaudio/ia601509.us.archive.org/2/items/PixelatedAudio47/PixelatedAudio47.mp3Podcast: Play in… Read More »

ChuChu Rocket! – PA46

Released in early in 2000 on the Sega Dreamcast, ChuChu Rocket! was the definition of what multiplayer puzzle games should be.

Power Quest on the GameBoy Color would’ve been an easy title to overlook because there were plenty of terrible fighting games ported to the GameBoy (i.e. Street Fighter II). So back in the 90’s you probably passed on the handheld’s fighting genre which might explain this game’s lack of notoriety. However, Japan System Supply produced… Read More »

Battle Squadron – PA42

Battle Squadron: The Destruction of the Barrax Empire! and it’s slightly less known older brother, Hybris, are arguably two of the best shooters on the Amiga. Right from the start, Cope Com knew how to make a challenging shooter that, in our opinion, is still fun to play today. And composers Paul van der Valk (Hybris) and Ron Klaren… Read More »
