    Reviews Reviews by Meteo Xavier on Comments1

    This is a first for me. After years and years of reviewing videogames through various channels and formats, through wild, unpredictable, untamable prose and skits and songs and haikus and diatribes an

  • Sesame Street: Oscar’s Letter Party (VMIV)

    Reviews Reviews by Paul Franzen on Comments2

    The Interactive Vision is God's way of assuring us that crazy people can make videogame consoles, too. I spoke about the system in some depth last month in Dear Readers, but for those of you drawn in

  • Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (PC)

    Reviews Reviews by Carl Houghton on Comments3

    It's great to review one of your all-time favorite games. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (FoA) was what LucasArts provided to their p'n'c fans after the sublime Monkey Island 2, and it would

  • La Pucelle Tactics (PS2)

    Reviews Reviews by Meteo Xavier on Comments2

    Strategy RPGs piss me off. It takes 20 minutes to do even a simple battle, you get virtually no exploration, you don't get to strengthen or balance your party but you DO have to micromanage everything
