First off, let me take this opportunity to give b5media’s video games channel boss Mike Leaño a pat on the back for doing such a great job at whipping our sorry behinds keeping us all in top form. Actually, I’m just trying to butter him up because I need to borrow one of our favorite […]

What do you do if you only have a 386 PC on your desk and need to sate this craving for world domination? Why, play Conflict: Middle East Political Simulator, of course. And this is exactly what I did back in 1994, when I had been stuck for hours on end manning the editorial offices […]

I’ve found this really neat article about this very subject, The Evolution of Ken and Ryu. Actually, I’ve been wanting to write something just like it for the longest time, but since I don’t have the entire Street Fighter collection within my grasp, I decided not to push through with it.

I just want to share two videos I found about the impending release of Diablo III. Whew! It’s shaping up nicely … very nicely.

Well, it’s not exactly retro gaming, since Diablo III hasn’t even been launched yet. But its predecessors, Diablo, Diablo: Hellfire, Diablo II, and Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, are already classics in their own right.
For now, though, let me focus on Diablo and its expansion Hellfire. These two are probably two of the most played […]
