This game is hard to describe, not in a Toejam and Earl kinda way, just that it is odd and I like it despite not being able to come up with a tangible reason for liking it.

Space Harrier was released in arcades in 1985, and while I was about 1 when this was released, I did play this a bit in the arcades in the early 90s, I don’t remember much about it so I thought…

Golden Axe Warrior. Sega (1991) Sega Master System
I’ll be honest, I thought I was going to absolutely hate this game. I don’t especially like the Golden Axe series, and lets be honest, this game looks like a Legend of Zelda clone. So let me take you on…

Shining Force II, Sonic Software (1994) Sega Genesis

Streets of Rage 3, Sega (1994) Sega Genesis
Streets of Rage is good, and Streets of Rage 2 is marginally better, and I am on a Megadrive kick at the moment, I thought I’d finish of this trilogy. So… Is SoR3 any good?

Golden Axe II. Sega AM7 (1992) Sega Genesis
All right, so I didn’t like Golden Axe. I thought it was bland, the combat wasn’t very interesting and what little fun there was is exhausted after 5 minutes of playing. So with 2 whole years between this release and…
