It's back to my 10s this week, with Might and Magic VI. This game is one of my all-time favorites and one of the reasons I even consider PC games in my coverage.

Going back through the blog archives once again, this time to check out the beginning of one of my all-time favorite series.

We are going back to the early days of the blog, which went back to the early days of the PS1. Warhawk was one of the console's early titles, but is it still worth playing

It's time to play ball. It's kind of funny to see what people thought baseball might look like in 2020 way back in 1991. Was Super Baseball 2020 a good game?

Heretic was a 90's FPS, a boomer shooter, if you will, designed to capitalize on the success of Doom. Did its medieval treatment of a successful formula succeed?
