Urban Yeti!

Posted on September 3, 2021 by Cassidy

“I Don’t Think You’re Ready for this Yeti.”

What do you get when you combine a mock cult, Dolemite, surfboarding, and multiple failed distribution deals? Why, a Game Boy Advance cartridge about cryptids, obviously! The story of what is possibly the GBA library’s oddest entry, and the industry history of the folk responsible.

Posted on April 27, 2020 by Guest Author

“Into the Sky, so Very High, Enter the Dragonfly.”

At the peak of Spyro’s popularity – coming off of a wildly successful and acclaim PlayStation trilogy – his ascent was cut swiftly and shockingly short with his inaugural sixth-gen appearance. Who is most to blame for clipping his wings?

“Hootie & the Road Trip.”

When it comes to Hooters, you should expect your licensed games to be “delightfully tacky yet unrefined.” But can this PS1 racing title live up to even that low expectation?

Arthur’s Quest: Battle for the Kingdom

Posted on April 23, 2017 by Cassidy

“In Thy Battle for the Kingdom Come, Arthur is Done.”

Could this vintage ValuSoft release be a cool bargain, or is its cruelty matched only by Morgan LeFay herself? A classic GameSpot review may have given us a pretty good clue.
