Review: Loom

Younger gamers may be worried that this will be a game based around saving men dressed up in giant fruit costume, but this is Loom (not Fruit of the Loom)! This is TurboDuo port of one of the very fi...

Review: Vigilante

Vigilante was one of the very first TurboGrafx-16 games, an arcade port that was neither worth your time or your money. It's a sluggish action game that has you fighting hundreds of brain-dead thugs ...

Review: Deep Fighter: The Tsunami Offense

Best known for the Burnout series, Criterion has been making high quality games for quite some time now. All you need to do is go back and check out Deep Fighter to see this in action. This underwat...

Review: Cadash

Based on a classic arcade game, Cadash is one of the few 2D side scrolling role-playing games you can play with a friend. But this TurboGrafx-16 version isn't quite as enthralling as you might rememb...

Review: Sam & Max Ep. 103: The Mole, the Mob, and the Meatball

It's hard to believe that there have already been three different Sam & Max episodes this season! Even though this newest case doesn't hit all of the highs of the first two outings, it is still an ex...

Review: Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas

After six years isn't it about time we take a road trip to the great city of Las Vegas? Unfortunately it appears as though we booked our trip at the wrong time, because there's bad stuff going d...

Review: Panzer Dragoon Mini

Ever wonder what Panzer Dragoon would be like if you took away those amazing graphics and the cool scaling and rotating effects? Apparently you aren't alone, because Tom is here with a very out ...

Review: Samurai Ghost

It wouldn't be a weekend without another TurboGrafx-16 review, and this time around it's a little game called Samurai Ghost. There's no doubt that we are going to see a good selection of TurboGrafx-1...

Review: D2

Josh is back with yet another Dreamcast review, this time it's for D2, a strange sequel-like game to the 3DO's D. This time around you actually get to control your character, sort of like a snow cove...

Review: Mutant Rampage: Bodyslam

Okay CD-i fans, get ready to continue to hate Defunct Games as we review yet another crummy (although not completely horrible) game for your favorite dead system. This time around it's Mutant Rampage...

Review: Metal Slug Anthology

So you finally got your hands on the Nintendo Wii and you've already busted through Zelda and Wii Play. Now what are you going to do? Why not check out Metal Slug Anthology, a collection of sev...

Review: Soldier Blade

For a system that isn't known for its amazing 2D shooters, the TurboGrafx-16 sure does have a lot to choose from. Soldier Blade is the third installment in the Star Soldier series, and while it may n...

Review: Victory Run

Victory Run is a 3D racing game in an era when 3D racers sucked. Unfortunately this game is limited by the poor technology of the TurboGrafx-16. Thankfully it's not all bad, Victory Run is still a s...

Review: Super Tetris

We all know how great plain old regular Tetris is, so Super Tetris should be simply amazing, right? WRONG! Super Tetris is to the original Tetris what Episode 1 is to the original Star Wars mov...

Review: Sonic the Hedgehog

We all know Sonic the Hedgehog is great on the 16-bit Genesis, but what about the Master System version? Cyril feels that just because this is a stripped down game you shouldn't count it out. I...

Review: Final Lap Special

Final Lap is one of Namco's oldest racing games, it seems somewhat odd that they have yet to release a current (or next) generation update of this game. Perhaps they worry that nobody remembers this ...

Review: Super Off-Road

Who cares if the game is really old, Super Off-Road is one game that still manages to hold up surprisingly well. Perhaps it's because nobody is making games like this anymore, they've all switched to...

Review: Sega Genesis Collection

Believe it or not, one of the best games of the year wasn't a game at all. It was 28 games from the 16-bit Genesis era! I'm talking about the Sega Genesis Collection, the best "game" Sega has releas...
