Another wonderful shoot 'em up for the PC. I gotta dig up the rest of them as there are a lot of obscure ones that weren't even made by companies. Just love it!

Game-bit of the day 929: Xargon (PC)

Here we have another wonderful game for DOS. Xargon is pretty epic as it involves side scrolling platforming action. It was the norm back in the day and is still used to this day with some of the newer retro style games.

This is a classic RPG for DOS. Look at the classic cover art, it's just old school to the max! Imagination at its best!

Ads from the Past 440: SEIRYŪ DENSETSU MONBIT

This is some random game and even though there is no photos of the actual game, the dinos caught my attention. I would be crazy enough to actually buy it for that reason only.

Game-bit of the day 927: Happyland Adventures (PC)

This game mimics Super Mario in a lot of ways and it was quite popular back in the day. It's the perfect Mario by many although the Keen games can definitely compete with the title.

Finds 1143: Super Hydorah and Nurse Love Addiction

Two really neat special editions from Limited Run Games! Nurse Love Addiction is for the kinky minded and Super Hyrodah is for the old school shoot 'em up fan! They're definitely different from each other.

Game-bit of the day 926: World Quest (PC)

Such a sexy cover art for a game about the World! Should I say more? Lets just leave it a secret, a secret to everyone!

Retro Game of the Week 168: Montezuma's Revenge (PC)

A classic of all classics especially because of how many different platforms this one has been in. Montezuma's Revenge combines exploration with side scrolling that has kept in memories of gamers for decades now. It's an early  game that was released on PC and various other consoles. The main purpose is to jump around and be careful with the various monsters and obstacles you are given. Remember, they are ruins so be careful! Game on! Be sure to get this for pretty much any console out there.

Game-bit of the day 925: Pickle Wars (PC)

This is an odd game with an odd story line that just works. It really does! Stop the pickles from taking over the planet. Exterminate them!

Ads from the Past 439: Dungeon Explorer 2 (PC Engine)

This one was released on CD and came with cut-scenes. Can't beat more Gauntlet style dungeon crawling action. I believe this one was released on the Turbo Grafx as well.

Game-bit of the day 924: Gateworld (PC)

A very underrated game for the PC. This game reminds me of the first and second Duke Nukem. Talk about classic Sci-fi genre. Love it!

Game-bit of the day 923: Skyroads (PC)

Skyroads is just a very fun game. It can be frustrating but helping your ship dodge death can definitely become addictive. Love it!

Game-bit of the day 922: Champ Kong (PC)

This is just a clone of the classic Mario Bros but for the PC. Can you blame them? I'm digging the graphics though... they're just beautiful!

Ads from the Past 438: Shinobi (PC Engine)


This is an ad for Shinobi. I heard this port of the game is not as good as the one for the Sega/Mega Drive. You are better off sticking with Sega on this one. No offense my beautiful PC Engine.

Game-bit of the day 921: TMNT (PC)

Lets face it, this game is horrible and at times, unplayable, but it's the ninja turtles so you gotta love it. Unplayable though...

Game-bit of the day 920: Arya Vaiv (PC)

A shoot 'em up for the PC that plays really well. I can't believe it fits in one floppy disk! Try it out if you haven't . I'm here to bring all obscure titles into the light!
