Subspace Brief Facts – Psychic Killer Taromarou!

May 6, 2018April 8, 2020Steve W0

Psychic Killer Taromarou is one of the rarest and most expensive games out there. Nobody should pay for it – but if you can find a way to *cough* acquire it *cough* it’s worth a look. It has the kind of bizarre late ’90s charm that only the Saturn could bring.

Snake Rattle ‘N Roll

February 14, 2017April 7, 2020Steve W0

It’s time for another Subspace Brief Facts! I don’t know if there’s much else to say about Snake Rattle ‘N Roll other than “it looks great and it’s annoyingly difficult” – but somehow I squeezed a five minute video out of this! Enjoy!

Video Pinball 666 Salute!

January 22, 2017April 7, 2020Steve W0

This post is more than a bit late… behold! My tribute to the insanity that is video pinball: Over the years, I have amassed quite aof video pinball games. Even though I’m not much of a pinball player, I’m a huge fan of the genre, and I’ve long wanted to do a retrospective on the legendary Alien Crush. […]

Castlevania Symphony of the Night: Maria Goes to Saturn

November 19, 2016April 7, 2020Steve W0

It’s difficult to cover something that’s been done to death, but I’ve always wanted to do something on Symphony of the Night. Hopefully I’ve provided something somewhat new and original by exploring a very specific aspect of the Saturn version of Dracula X: Nocturne in the Moonlight– the ability to play as Maria Renard. Enjoy! You’ll also […]

Arcade Memories, Pt. 2: Time Killers

October 26, 2016April 8, 2020Steve W0

Wistfully reliving the blood-drenched arcade summers of my youth

Deep Fear

August 19, 2016April 7, 2020Steve W0

This one was a doozy! Deep Fear is one I’ve been meaning to play for a while, so I figured it would make a great installment for the 10th Brief Facts! As you’ll be able to tell from the video, I played through the Japanese version of Deep Fear. While all the text is in […]

The Krion Conquest

June 30, 2016April 7, 2020Steve W0

At least I got to play this on HD thanks to my beautiful new Analogue NT? If I never play this game again it will be too soon… but it’s an interesting historical footnote, so WATCH THE VIDEO. This project was like jumping in front of a bullet that was aimed at no one… but I […]

Gain Ground SX

May 15, 2016April 7, 2020Steve W0

It has been FAR too long – I hope you’ll find that this video retrospective on Gain Ground SX for the PC Engine CD was worth the wait! Gain Ground SX is an obscure port of an obscure game for an obscure system. Nevertheless, I would HIGHLY recommend it to any TurboGrafx, PC Engine or Sega enthusiast. If […]

Ultima: Quest of the Avatar

March 20, 2016April 7, 2020Steve W1

Ultima: Quest of the Avatar for the NES is quite possibly one of the most complex RPGs of its era. I tried to beat it when I was in fourth grade and failed miserably. Figuring that I had gotten just a LITTLE bit smarter since then, I thought I’d pop it into my Analogue NT […]

Way of the Warrior/Naughty Dog 101

February 13, 2016April 7, 2020Steve W0

Subspace Brief Facts is back from its brief hiatus! I just picked up a 3DO, and decided to break it in by doing an episode on Way of the Warrior. Way of the Warrior is the kind of “bad” that can’t really sustain 10 minutes of content, so I decided to turn the project into brief history […]
