Some of you might not have known this, but without a doubt, Wing Commander is one of if not my favorite PC game of all time. I guess the simple reason behind this is the fact that it was the first computer game I played that really put me in the shoes of the character completely. I felt like I was the one in that cockpit blowing away the bad guys to save mankind and restore peace. Cliched...yes. But the music, sounds, and graphics were so blended together perfectly that I've not felt the same wi
Another of my older reviews, one of my first in fact. Again originally and still posted over at Jose Q's Emuviews website, this review was more of a comparison between the arcade and 7800 version of Ms. Pac-Man. It was to demonstrate how close the 7800 port of this game is to its arcade parent. The 7800 version is considered to be one of the best ports of the arcade brought to a home console. I've updated the review in a few places but it appears largely as it was when originally posted.

Another of my older reviews hosted from Jose Q's Emuviews website. This time I delve into the one game that made me want an Intelly in the first place! Had I known that a game like Microsurgeon existed originally back in the day, I might have wanted the Intellivision much earlier in my life than the late 90s...hehe.
Title = Microsurgeon
Platform = Intellivision
Genre = ?Shooter/Simulation?
Released = 1982
Players = 1

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to
My first Wii review and like the rest of my reviews, it is very wordy. Not sure if that is a good or bad thing? Anyway, here is my take on the game which, has changed a tad since my first initial review on the game I made last month. Sorry for the pics, I took them with my digital and it doesn't like my CRT HDTV too much.
Title = Dewy's Adventure
Platform = Nintendo Wii
Genre = Platform (Tilt mechanic)
Released = 2007
Players = 1 - 4

First for those that don't kno
This is considered to be one of the best games available for the 7800. I do agree that the game is an excellent arcade port, but I still feel that this game doesn't show any justice to what the 7800 could really do. As such while many of the comments in this old review seem negative I actually score the game pretty highly. Review is posted below as it appears on Jose Q's Emuviews site.
Title = Food Fight
Platform = Atari 7800 ProSystem
Genre = Platform? (Run 'n Splat more like it)
Release
The D&D arcade games are my favorite arcade games ever! Many don't care for the fact that these were just upgraded hack n slash games in the vein of Golden Axe etc. But I love that side scrolling brawling action and to me the D&D games were the creme de le creme of their day. Here is my entire review of one of the D&D arcade games and my favorite of the two released.
Title = D&D: Shadow over Mystara
Platform = Arcade (Capcom CPS2)
Genre = Hack 'n Slash/ w some RPG elements
This was my first review I did for a video game. It was done several years ago now and was and still is originally hosted at the now defunt musuem known as Jose Q's Emuviews. Grab something to drink and get comfortable. My reviews were and still are quite the read.
Title = Starmaster
Platform = Atari 2600
Genre = Shooter (early Space/Sim)
Released = 1982
Players = 1
---------------------
1982 was a good year to be the proud owner of an Atari 2600 VCS system. Atari made several releases
Another of my older reviews that I apparently never posted here to AtariAge. This was originally posted and still to be found over at Jose Q's Emuviews website, this review is of one of the many games that made me want the Atari 7800 back in the day and is one of the elements related to video games in my life to help create my online alias today. I present to you my original review of the Atari 7800 arcade port of Crossbow!
Title = Crossbow
Platform = Atari 7800 ProSystem

Many of you have known me for some time. Some of you even know me on a personal level having been a part of or attending my events here in Tulsa known as the Oklahoma Video Game Exhibition or OVGE for short. As such you may also know that I play lots of video games...lots...and lots of video games. I've been playing video games since I was about 4 and figured out how to hook up an old Odyssey 300 that my mother got somehow to our 19inch color magnavox TV back in the late 70s. Since then I was lu
