Video Games Of The Week

Game of the Week PS4

shoot em up

Raiden Fighters, Raiden Fighters 2 and Raiden Fighters Jet make up the trio of this compilation that goes in all guns blazing and takes no prisoners. The soundtrack is relentless, the in game characters given a millennial make over, yet veteran gamers may fear not as the action remains true to its pure adrenalin roots. Some may even be tempted to take advantage of the different play modes to flip back through a particularly turbulent section. A fine tribute to a much-loved series.

Game of the Week PS5

Shoot Em Up

Taking the original Reboot that sought authenticity to the original and cutting a bit loose on the broomstick with a new character, extra multipliers, graphical shift and the highly amusing enemy capture adding much hilarity. Gaming veterans Beep reveal their retro tattoos and it’s a young witch on a broomstick. A fine series to go back to, especially such a relatively unknown version.

Game of the Week Switch

Action

Always one of the most unlikeliest names for a video game hero, Earnest Evans Collection contains his a fore named game Earnest Evans from the Mega CD era, besides the seminal MD El Viento and the cult classic from the Mega CD Anett Futatabi. Telenet always had such devoted followers and these three titles demonstrate why.

Game of the Week Switch

Action

A huge license in Japan based on the classic manga. You play the role of Mr. Saeba – a bit of a Japanese bond, fond of both ladies and firearms. Good advise would be to keep em peeled for the helpful nurse on each level. Reminiscent of Rolling Thunder in parts. Brought back for the modern era thanks to a fabulous live-action film on Netflix.

Super Famicom
Puzzle
Players zip around screen in their space ship looping around the on screen blocks to keep the screen clear, in this intriguing twist on the Tetris formula, full of X Files style UFO conspracies.
Famicom Cart
Platform
Fine Famicom version which is very playable title in it’s own right. Detachable arm power ups rock!
Super Famicom
RPG
The hugely popular series shows its true colours as players explore walled dungeons, tree lined mountain-scapes and towns in the familiar 3D dungeon explorer style. Plenty of intriuguing folks to meet along your quest with items to boost your inventory and a battle never too far around the corner.
PC Engine HU Card
Sports
Classic Video System title from back in 1989 which stirs memories of Olympics past as players try to get their team, perhaps tactically wearing shorts a little too tight, to become the best in the world.
Super Famicom
Puzzle
Colourful characters as bright as the descending spheres which send immoveable blocks raining down on your opponents side of the screen. Plenty of emotion in both victory and defeat with Konami’s polish in presentation in ample evidence. Full title: Tsuyoshi Shikkari Shinasai Taisen Puzzle Dama (or loosely translated as: Sort it out Tsuyoshi.)
Super Famicom
One on One Beat Em Up
Risque girl on girl fighting game also converted to the Saturn. The developers have tweaked the saucy-ness factor to keep inline with Nintendo, but it still stands up as a solid fighter with smooth mechanics.
PC Engine HU Card
Puzzle
Columns style match the falling blocks gameplay, but with a twist required to fit the shapes together adding an extra dimension to gameplay. Blocks become plants and animals on later levels to spice up the action. Comes with an extra GT mode to allow the handheld owners to link up for two player action.
Famicom Cart
Action
A more refined look in line with the PC Engine incarnations of the bomb and run blast from Hudson. A simple concept, but remains the height of multiplayer gaming and, as later versions prove, the formula is best suited to the full screen, 2D look.
