Space Harrier for Sega Master System

Classic Game Room reviews SPACE HARRIER for Sega Master System from 1986, the 8-bit version of the Yu Suzuki arcade classic. While the Sega Master System doesn’t handle the game with smooth perfection or arcade quality visuals it does a great job trying. Relatively responsive controls make playing Space Harrier fun but choppy visuals ruin that arcade quality experience. It was difficult to see exactly where enemies were or to avoid obstacles, but back in the 80′s this game was the bomb on the Master System. Fans of Space Harrier should look for better versions these days like the Sega Saturn version, Wii arcade, PS3 and 360 or 32X. This CGR review of Space Harrier on Sega Master System has gameplay from Space Harrier on Sega Master System showing Space Harrier game play.

CGR Undertow – Chronos Twins DX for Nintendo Wii

Classic Game Room presents a CGR Undertow review of Chronos Twins DX, a downloadable game from EnjoyUp for the Nintendo Wii’s WiiWare service. Chronos Twins DX has a lot in common with the classic action-platform games of the past. You move through 2D environments while shooting at enemies and jumping on platforms. The game’s hook is that your character exists in two separate times simultaneously. You’re controlling one character, but you have to be cognizant of what you’re doing in both the past and present. This video review features video gameplay footage of Chronos Twins DX for the Nintendo Wii and audio commentary from Classic Game Room’s Derek.

Kaitei Daisensou for Sega Saturn Packaging Review

Kaitei Daisensou for Sega Saturn Packaging ReviewClassic Game Room presents a CGR Packaging Review of Kaitei Daisensou for Sega Saturn. This Japanese SHMUP style shooting game can be described as Metal Slug Underwater. Developed by Irem (R-Type), many of the people involved actually went on to make Metal Slug so the game is rich with entertaining, chunky visuals that enhance its cool 2D shooter style. Sadly it suffers from horrible Sega Saturn slowdown which cripples gameplay. The packaging is very well designed with a full color manual and bright cover design. The artwork features a submarine fighting a giant monster breathing fire. Hooray! Torppedoes armed and ready! Why bother with a spell check…
