Turnabout is a seemingly simple puzzle game that came out extremely late in the PS1’s life cycle. The game takes you on a relaxing journey while you play with colored balls, but is it enough? 

It’s been almost a year since we played Einhander, our first schmup on the show. Mike struggled while Jimmy and Kyle used save states to get by. We felt that it was time to give the genre another shot with the Japanese exclusive cute em’ up Harmful Park!

With the year coming to a close, we decided to take a look back at all the games we covered and determine which was the best and worst in several categories. Do you agree with our choices?

For this week’s episode we couldn’t think of any better way to celebrate the holidays than to play the game based on everybody’s favorite Christmas movie, Die Hard! With three separate games in one, Die Hard Trilogy has so much to offer. But with the infamous reputation of licensed games around this time, would you be better off just watching the movies?

2D Zelda-likes were far and few between on the original PlayStation. Alundra aims to take the formula made popular by titles like A Link to the Past and update it with a more mature story. Does it stick the landing or should you should just stick to the classics?

This week, we’re playing 3 volumes of the Namco Museum Series. A big undertaking in itself, join us as we do our best to play through (and enjoy) dozens of classic arcade games.

Today we’re looking at one of the weirdest games on the PlayStation, Rising Zan: The Samurai Gunman. The only non sports game developed by Cool Boarders developer UEP systems, this unique action game has a ton of personality. But is it style over substance?

Beat ‘em ups are a genre that we have somehow yet to check out on this show. The genre had its heyday in the 90s but slowly began to fade away as gamers began to look for more substantial gaming experiences. Today we’re looking at Crisis Beat, a 3D beat ‘em up that takes cues from the classic action films of the 80s and 90s.

In a much needed change of pace, today we’re looking at a little known PS1 game named Tail of the Sun. This exploration based title where you play as a caveman really pushed us to our limits. Is this weird little game a hidden gem? Or is it one of the worst games we’ve ever played?
