Previews

  • Agile Fighter (Playstation) - A jet fighter game for the PS1.
  • Destruction Derby (PC) - I loved this game but I played it on the PlayStation, not the PC.
  • Frantic Flea (SNES) - A puzzle game featuring fleas.
  • Hexen (PC/PlayStation) - One of the earliest Doom clones. I had a blast playng this one though it wasn't quite as good of a multiplayer game as Doom.
