Spyro the Dragon


Spyro the Dragon. Another video game from my childhood that I have many fond memories of, and perhaps the only game I've played where the enemies actually moon you. Oh yes, they know you're literally going to toast their asses so why not show it to you?

Croc: Legend of the Gobbos


In the fall of 1997 Fox Interactive published Croc: Legend of the Gobbos by Argonaut Software for the Sony PlayStation, Sega Saturn, Microsoft Windows, and Game Boy Color. The game stars a young baby crocodile named Croc who was found by a species called the Gobbos. Everything was peaceful until one day where the evil Baron Dante invaded and captured the Gobbos and their ruler, King Rufus. Evading capture, Croc now stands alone with the challenging task of freeing the Gobbos and defeating Baron Dante.

Crash Bandicoot


Crash Bandicoot is a video game franchise formerly developed by Naughty Dog and published by Universal Interactive Studios for the Sony PlayStation. Later on when the games were moved to other publishers it would become available on multiple platforms. Once upon a time Crash Bandicoot was basically the PlayStation’s equivalent of Mario and Sonic.

Monster Rancher


Monster Rancher (originally Monster Farm in Japan) was a game released by Tecmo in North America for the Sony PlayStation in November 1997. It would go on to receive a cult following, earning four more sequels spanning from the PlayStation 1 to the PlayStation 2 and spin-off games for various consoles and even an Anime. Needless to say, Monster Rancher has found a place in many people's hearts, but let take a look at the first game. The one that started it all.
