Video Games Of The Week
Game of the Week Switch
Shoot Em Up
Much-cherished Milestone shoot ’em up gets a Switch reboot and there are Hitchcock overtones for this crow related shooter. Utilises power ups for the shot, sword and shield giving it a strategic element. Known as also ‘Crows’ and ‘Karous’.
£94.99
Game of the Week Super Famicom
platform
Redesigned packaging to celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of this still stunning Super Famicom platformer with gothic overtones, stunning shafts of sunshine and fleeting shadows. A rare SFC title in the mould of such sublime titles as Demons Crest and Nosferatu with a twist of the graphical skills of the Actraiser teams. Some of the in-game assailants and bosses are more than a bit twisted looking like they just broke out of the Splatter House. The main hero can thankfully upgrade his skills as the supernatural bosses are dispatched – all the way up to the big hoedown with the Demon King. And these transformations help even if the concept of becoming a demon to beat them doesn’t sit too nicely when surrounded by such creepy creatures.
£59.99
Game of the Week Switch
platform
Includes the rare DS version Gallery of Labyrinth – Gothic chic has never looked so good as Count Dracula tries with all his vim and vigour to rid himself and his mansion of the trespassing Belmont clan – even if protagonists Jonathan and Charlotte’s links to the Belmont ancestry are slim. Both players have a different skills set. Keeps true to the manuscript of the Castlevania tradition and those familiar with its whip cracking action will feel right at home in the spooky splendour of the Counts castle. Concessions are made to the modern gamer in being able to plough right through quickly, yet the seasoned vampire slayer will take their time to explore the plethora of in game secrets. Plus players can leap into paintings to take on off shoots from the castle with plenty of visual variety in this platformer set in WWII. The bosses mark a stunning return to form and show the Konami team to not be shy on eating cheese before bed.
Another fine DS conversion in Castlevania Order of Ecclesia included too: Konami style alright – packed full with a bounty of varied levels and surprises all drawn in the most chic gothic fashion as the developers seem to have been hanging around the streets of Shinjuku with Gackt look a likes as much as Transylvanian castles. Plenty of innovative touches and a commendable blend of keeping true to the series traditions and bringing in new blood.
Finally includes the arcade version of Castlevania: Akumajo Dracula Revisited, also known as Haunted Castle.

New Arrivals
PS2
Action
Bringing their own style to the table comes hard negotiator Namco tossing the player into the full on One Year War against the Zeon in this intriguing collaboration with Bandai going by the moniker of Project Pegasus. Distinctive retro feel to this off shoot in terms of the late 70’s section of the mecha series it is based on, but the graphics engine is far from outdated. Freshening the series up with ground and space based missions offering freedom and a refreshing twist of Namco style. Also known by its Japanese name of ‘Kidou Senshi Gundam Ichinen Sensou.’
PS2
One on One Beat Em Up
Sammy proves its no schmuck using Dreamcast based technology to produce an arcade armada in Guilty Gear with which to plunder SNK and Capcom’s warchests. The smooth conversion to PS2 sits proudly as possibly one of the series finest 2D fight fests.
PS2
Action
Drawing on the warring period of Japans history, Ikusagami sees players sweeping away the army of ten thousand when ploughing through the battlefield crammed with opponents. Some serious specials are needed and the PS2 handles them admirably as huge armies get swiped away in a circle of the huge sword. And with over 60,000 enemies on screen at one time, that is quite some sizeable sword… Known as Demon Chaos in the West.
PS2
RPG
Spectacular combat with visual pyrotechnics to set this apart from the competition. The development of the series from the Saturn and Dreamcast is a joy to watch and the progression with each instalment is quite staggering.
PS2
Action
Capcoms polish is more than evident as this epic samurai slasher captures gamers hearts and minds. Beautifully set in a Feudal Japan with plenty of adversaries straight from Japanese mythology. Thankfully the slash of steel can bring down even the biggest and baddest of boss monoliths.
Super Famicom
Sports
Conversion of Capcom’s coin-op capturing all the company’s arcade flair blended with the artistry of the Fist of the North Star series and the odd Final Fight character. Full of razzmatazz with each competitor having a intro tune and dance. Use of ringside items also adds spice to the grapple action, especially when used in multiplayer matches.
Super Famicom
Platform
Delightful, adorable platformer but don’t let the sweet Disney characters deceive the challenge at the heart of this example of how licensed games should be done. Konami delivers yet again.
Super Famicom
Shoot Em Up
Conversion of the much heralded Seibu Kaihatsu coin-op that never relied on cheap tricks or gimmicks, just simple play mechanics, hardcore level structures, a riffing soundtrack and good old fashioned high scores awarded for collecting medals. The weapons can be powered up but there are only two to select along with two supplementary bomb attacks. Pure arcade shooting action.
