retrospective

Well, folks, it’s time for another retro gaming session! This evening started on a bit of a rough note due to some not-so-great news, and honestly, it was hard to focus at first. But retro games are like a warm blanket for the soul, so we decided to go ahead with our plan and dedicate the night...

Hi! Haven't posted or been posting on any forum sites for like almost 12 years now? I've been an active member of forum sites before (Otaku streamers, animax-asia, anime planet etc). Due to the growth of social media platforms, forum sites has almost been inactive. BUT, as we all know, social...

I remember the first time I became aware of the existence of the whole Dungeons and Dragons concept. One of my uncles was a bit of a nerd and had a bunch of cool stuff in his library. Star Wars novels, Star Trek memorabilia, sketches, fan art of fantasy characters, you name it. A smorgasbord of...

It’s time to finish the 8-bit generation of Marvel games. Some of you may have even read the first article (https://retrogametalk.com/threads/marvel-games-in-the-third-generation-part-one.53/) and I know you’ve been chomping at the bit to see the epic conclusion to these games of the utmost...

Like every child of the 90’s obsessed with superheroes, I would routinely browse the shelves at my local Canadian Blockbuster or local game store, ‘GAMES- BUY, SELL, TRADE’ (seriously, that place was great despite not having a name) and often I would be searching for something specific. A bounty...
