I've been playing with the idea of making a blog for some time now, more than anything I want to leave something behind for those that care for old games like I do. In that regard I have many old titles that I may come to write about on this blog in the years to come, and if you like what you see here, maybe you would like to come back from time to time and give my ramblings a read. I intend to upload my first serious post in the coming weeks. I don't know if anyone will want to look at, or even care about what I have to say, but I guess it's worth a shot I suppose. If nothing else, at least I'll have something extra to do with my time.

A Review: Alpha Prime, PC 2007

Alpha Prime is a first-person shooter game from the Czech developer Black Element Software, the same company behind popular titles such as Day-Z and Arma. The game puts the player in the role of Arnold Weiss, a wizened and pessimistic mining prospector, as he goes on a mission to save his former friend at the behest of his former lover, Livia. Gameplay is mostly standard for the FPS genre and is one of those titles that is very much a case of 'what you see is what you get'. This game's script and story were written by a famous Czech author, Ondrej Neff, and run through the Enforce 2 engine. One of Black Element's proprietary game engines. Alpha Prime was initially released on Steam, and as of August 2011, it also became available on the cloud gaming service OnLive. Despite the reviews and critics opinions, I liked this game for the most part and enjoyed the time I spent on it. The gameplay is steady and well-paced, with plenty of interesting and engaging firefights and ...

A Review: 18 Wheeler: American Pro Trucker, PSTwo 2000

The third and final review I'll be posting today is for the PlayStation Two game 18 Wheeler - American Pro Trucker. 18 Wheeler: American Pro Trucker is an arcade-style truck racing game developed and published by Acclaim. This is a game that I played a couple of times in an actual ride-along arcade unit when I was a kid. I had no idea that a port to home consoles had even been considered, let alone actually done. This is due to the inherent limitations of arcade games and the fact that they are short by design. No matter, I found a copy online, downloaded it, and made a playthrough, and boy, was this a short game. 18 Wheeler is a game that was originally developed by Sega for their AM2 arcade cabinets and was later ported to the Playstation 2 and GameCube by Acclaim Entertainment. SEGA followed up the arcade success of this game with a sequel, The King of Route 66, which was released in 2002 on arcade units before being ported to the Playstation Two and SEGA Dreamcast. This was t...

A Review: 007: Tomorrow Never Dies, PSOne 1999

Today I shall be posting three reviews, the first is for the game 007: Tomorrow Never Dies, a PlayStation One game from 1999, enjoy. 007: Tomorrow Never Dies is a 3rd-person shooter game with stealth elements developed for the PSOne by Black Ops Entertainment and published by EA Games/MGM Interactive. I found this game in my local Gamestation's bargain bin (before the company went into bankruptcy in 2012) when I was a youngster for £5. I thought nothing of buying it and giving it a go based purely on brand recognition and the box art. I can remember playing through it at least three times and finding the game to be average at best. When I found the files for download on a ROM site, I decided to look at this game with adult eyes and see if I could still enjoy it. This is the first Bond game to come from Electronic Arts after the company acquired the licensing rights from the previous developer/publisher and followed on from the successful Goldeneye game of 1997. Originally, this gam...
