Some games are hard. Not enough to frustrate, but just enough to pose a serious challenge. Other games seek to dominate you completely, and you’re feeble skills are no match for their relentless and never-ending onslaught. Sub-Terrania is one such title, and it’s a game where there’s really no middle ground. You either like it or hate it.
Sometimes, what seems like a great idea on paper doesn’t work at all in practice. That was the case with the Genesis port of Galaxy Force II, which was incredible in arcades.

It was essentially a train wreck in space, and if you ever had any doubt that such a thing could happen, you need only read our review to see.
Few icons have had as storied a history in video games as Batman. From a few bona fide classics to some real stinkers, the Dark Knight has a ton of releases under his utility belt. One of the more controversial titles was Batman Returns, based on the second film. Many debate its quality to this day, and we’ve a review to help you fence-sitters make up your mind. Hey, don’t say we never did anything for ya!
There’s nothing like a four-day weekend for getting caught up on one’s gaming pile of shame. Amid several hour stretches of Dragon Quest VIII (screw the haters; it’s amazing), some love was also given to another famous RPG series, which only saw one outing on the Genesis – Dungeons & Dragons. Warriors of the Eternal Sun is short and sweet and very much worth checking out.
Nothing is more depressing than seeing a beloved franchise take a hit in the family jewels. Such was the case with After Burner III, a game that ignited its thrusters to make a mach 3 jump from awesome to “just plain sucks.” Take a deep breath, leave your expectations at the door, and head on in to our full review.
