Phantasy Star IV (Sega Genesis)

Published: March 10, 2013

An absolute gem of a JRPG. The story is epic, the characters are memorable, and the comic-book style cutscenes were revolutionary for their time. A must-play for any Genesis owner.

Score: 9/10

Super Metroid (SNES)

Published: Jan 5, 2014

The pinnacle of 2D exploration and atmosphere. The world is massive and interconnected, and the sense of isolation is palpable. A true masterpiece that still influences games today.

Score: 10/10

Final Fantasy VI (SNES)

Published: Feb 12, 2014

An epic story with a huge cast of memorable characters. The opera scene is still one of the most iconic moments in gaming history. The gameplay is polished and the story is one of the best in the series.

Score: 9.5/10

Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse (NES)

Published: Mar 20, 2014

The best of the NES Castlevania trilogy. Multiple paths and characters add a ton of replayability. The music is legendary and the challenge is tough but fair.

Score: 9/10

Mega Man X (SNES)

Published: Mar 22, 2014

A perfect evolution of the classic Mega Man formula. The wall jump and dash mechanics add a new level of speed and agility. The story is darker and the new villain, Sigma, is iconic.

Score: 9.5/10
