This week marks the birth week of the very first Squaresoft mecha-heavy turn-based strategy RPG title Front Mission, a 1995 Super Famicom title that mixes Battletech mecha fights with allusions of politics in a sci-fi world. There are five main entries and a number of side games in the series. The main games have their ups and downs, but they're s...
It's common knowledge now in 2020 that Final Fantasy Tactics is a verified classic; great battle system, lovely customization with its Job System, and a detailed Shakesperean story for the ages (mangled by its localization in the PS1 days). But you know what else? It's also a modder's favourite as the game has been hacked to provide tougher fights...
In case you couldn't tell byour recent Facebook cover page updates, we REALLY dig the pixel artwork of the PS1. It's funny: despite the console having limited capabilities in doing 2D sprites when compared to the Sega Saturn in the same era, somehow or other it came out as the better console in the long-run when it comes to overall graphics. Simp...
This month marks the 25th year since the first PlayStation home console was launched in Japan.

PlayStation has released 8 custom-made wallpapers that show of the initial ve...
Today marks the 25th anniversary of the PlayStation, in case you couldn't tell from your game-fuelled Facebook feed or on our front page of the website. 25 years ago this week, the first PlayStation was launched in Japan. It was the first home console to surpass 100 million units sold globally. Since then, PlayStation has continued its success in ...

Today marks the 25th anniversary of the original PlayStation, which originally launched in Japan on 3 December 1994 and changing the landscape of the gaming industry forever. Sony's first console is currently the fifth best-selling gaming console of all-time (including handhelds), with over 102.49 million units sold to date. No other console can...
Man, I remember a time when I enjoyed the heck out of Chrono Trigger on the PS1. Yes, I'm one of those guys late to the SNES JRPG party. But the fact that a 1995 SNES cartridge game ported on a CD anthology -tacked on with loading times, mind you- can still impress me more than all the PS1 FFs and Konami/Capcom JRPGs combined is a testament to the...
The PlayStation 2 will be keeping its throne as the best-selling video game console of all time but the original PlayStation goes down to third place and replacing it is none other than its own younger brother skipping one generation, the PlayStation 4. Accoriding to Sony's recently published Q2 FY2019 Consolidated Financial Results report, tota...
Talk about strip-mining your vestiges of long-forgotten IPs. Koei Tecmo, the publisher of such high-brow fares like the Dynasty Warrior series and the next Dead or Alive game, is going back to the well with Monster Rancher. At least, that's what everyone is guessing based on the newly-opened Twitter account from the publisher. This is to celebrate...
Did you love the deconstructivism and sombre narrative of Chrono Trigger's sequel on the PS1? Most importantly, did you relish in the majestic soundtrack created by Yasunori Mitsuda, arguably one of the most important composers in video game history? Then you'll love the Cross Symphonic album. Created by composer John Paul Hayward, the upcoming al...
I took the PlayStation Classic for a spin recently. And while a few of the games deserved to be on the retro-throwback cube, I felt that there should be other worthy titles in the mix. As it stands, the motley of games on the mini retro console is, how shall I put it, lacking. I'm not saying I know better, but as someone who lived through the 90s ...
Update: Japan's version of the PlayStation Classic has its own unique list, and it's way better. So PlayStation is getting into the mini retro console game with the PlayStation Classic. So far, PlayStation revealed 5 games for its PS1 Mini: Tekken 3, Ridge Racer Type 4, Final Fantasy VII, Jumping Flash!, and Wild Arms. Now we get the full 20 game...
Not one to be outdone by Nintendo and SNK in their respective quests to weaponize nostalgia and charging people for it, Sony PlayStation announces its PlayStation Classic mini console a few days before Tokyo Game Show 2018. Here's what we're getting: A small PlayStation One mini console with an HDMI output and a USB cable that connects to a powe...

The Blue Bomber himself, Mega Man, is the de facto Capcom mascot back in the late 80s when 2D platformers were all the rage. The titular original series was groundbreaking stuff. Its pick-any-order stage selection process was novel, its weapon-stealing mechanic was innovative, and its challenge level was brutal yet fair. Its spin-off SNES serie...
First 4 Figures announced its latest creation: Castlevania: Symphony of the Night's very own bishounen protagonist Alucard. It costs US$499.99, but holy hell does it look amazing! And heavily-detailed with the black cloak and the suit and the hair and the sword! And the size! [gallery ids="7672,7673,7674,7675,7676,7677,7680,7681,7682,7683" type="...
