Under construction

After roughly six months without an update, I'm back, and the new website is live!! Construction of the new site is still in progress, but I feel like I've got enough content ready to publish what I've got. I've also worked out most of the design quirks, so I should be able to provide fairly regular updates until I fully convert all content over. The Every Game Played section is in the process of being expanded and other areas of the site are also being updated and redesigned. Please be patient with me as I get it all created and uploaded. Some links aren't currently working, but everything will be working properly in time. Please feel free to contact me with any feedback, positive or negative, so long as it's constructive. Until then, please enjoy the new website look and some of the new content. Hopefully you'll enjoy the new design as much as I've enjoyed creating it.

15 more Odyssey 2 reviews have been added, including a few games that were only released in Europe, and never made it to North America. Four games have also gotten the "Side by Side" treatment...

Latest update: 06/07/2026

34 more Intellivision reviews have been added, meaning that I've reviewed a sizable portion of the Intellivision library now. It will likely be a while before I add any more Intellivision reviews...at least in bulk...

Latest update: 04/26/2025

I've added 23 more Atari 2600 reviews, and also sprinkled a new feature around called "Side by Side," which compares the same game I've reviewed on different platforms. More to be added soon...

Latest update: 04/16/2026

This is how I'm planning updates to eventually be - just one, single game added at a time. But it'll be a while before this is the norm. Anyway, Ultima has been reviewed for the Apple II...

Latest update: 04/09/2026

Adding games so that the upcoming 1981 list has some "new" games on it, I've tossed another 21 reviews up in the Arcade section, with a nice mix of good and obscure titles...

Latest update: 04/01/2025

It ain't no joke! The new list is finally live!! It only contains games from 1980 and earlier, with the goal of eventually getting to present day, but we'll gradually get to more modern games on there again...

Latest update: 02/22/2026

I've been overhauling how I do the average scores, and part of that includes tossing magazine reviews into the average...so, a new section for magazines has now been born. Only two publications right now, but more will be added as I go...

Latest update: 12/21/2025

As a bonus, to go along with the new Apple II section, I decided to go ahead and review every game (that I'm aware of) that was released for the obscure APF MP-1000 home console from back in 1978-1979. 13 new reviews have been added to go along with this section...

Latest update: 12/21/2025

Continuing to play various games from 1980 and earlier, I figured now was as good of a time as any to introduce an Apple II section to the website. 34 brand new reviews accompany the new section as I get closer and closer to launching the new list...

Latest update: 12/05/2025

Since I've added a bunch of Intellivision reviews after only having 3 for a few years, I felt like I should also add a bunch of Odyssey² reviews, after only having 3 for a few years. 19 new reviews have been added, and the launch of the new list creeps closer...

Latest update: 11/29/2025

In anticipation for the new variation of the list that I'm hoping to have out by the end of the year, I've added an Intellivision section and added 18 new reviews to go along with the whopping 3 reviews that I already had on the site...

Latest update: 11/22/2025

Another quick update and and brand new console, to boot. I've added reviews for the base games and the first 9 cartridges for the Fairchild Channel F console. Since this console had less than 30 official releases, all reviews are on a single page...

Latest update: 11/21/2025

Another update so quickly?! While not a huge update, I've added 8 more Atari 2600 games from 1980 and earlier. This is for the upcoming variation of the list that I mentioned in the previous update...

Latest update: 10/17/2025

A Playstation 3 section has been added, along with 10 brand-spanking new reviews. This was actually a bigger section than I thought it would be, but it still has plenty of room to grow...

Latest update: 10/10/2025

A Super NES section has been added, along with a few new reviews. This may be the largest section for the time being, but I still have plenty more to add over time...

Latest update: 10/10/2025

A Sega Genesis/Mega Drive section has been added. I've also added quite a few new reviews for this section as well. The Action 52 compilation is its own entry, so if you'd like to see how awful all 52 games are, you'll find them together on one page...

Latest update: 10/10/2025

A Nintendo Wii section has been added...I've also added Chuck E. Cheese's Super Collection, a compilation, since I had already reviewed the two games in the compilation individually at an earlier time...

Latest update: 10/10/2025

I've begun converting some of my ol' wrestling research for 19th century wrestler, Evan "Strangler" Lewis, over to a web page. As I'm doing this, I'm also going back and checking for more information (and finding some) to fill in gaps I've got..

Latest update: 10/10/2025

A Nintendo 3DS section has been added, along with a few new reviews. The section is not very big yet - a lot of empty pages, but the plan is to have more reviews added over time...

Latest update: 10/10/2025

A Nintendo Gamecube section has been added, along with a few new reviews. I have a few games on the console that I'd like to revisit in the near future, so expect more updates popping up in the next few months...

Latest update: 10/10/2025

An Xbox 360 section has been added, along with a few new reviews. There will be a few more updates to this section eventually, with games from this platform, played on other consoles eventually being added, but there's still a few dozen reviews here as-is...

Latest update: 10/10/2025

An Atari 2600 section has been added, with a bunch of very retro games reviewed. A few new reviews have also been added, including a personal favorite of mine, made in 2010 by Ed Fries, Halo 2600. There are still plenty of Atari 2600 games not covered, so this page will be updated plenty in the future... 

Latest update: 10/10/2025

A Sega Dreamcast section has been added, with a large portion of the Dreamcast library reviewed. I'm still missing some of the big ones (and some of the mediocre ones) but it's a pretty solid section. I've also added two compilations - JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Street Fighter III: Double Impact. More to come...

Latest update: 10/10/2025

An Ouya section has been added, with an assortment of Ouya game reviews. Were you one of the many that never really played an Ouya despite it setting record backing numbers on Kickstarter when it was originally announced? Maybe you can get an idea of what you missed out on here...  

Latest update: 10/10/2025

A Nintendo Switch section has been added with a bunch of reviews...more reviews coming soon. Since the Switch 2 doesn't have a ton of new, must-play content yet, maybe you can find something worth playing from the original Switch...

Latest update: 10/10/2025

A Panasonic 3DO section has been added with a bunch of reviews. It's probably not a surprise to many as to how many awful reviews this console got...but it may surprise some folks that there ARE a few gems hidden with the stinkers...
