It’s the final episode of the InRetroSpect Review Show and Xero talks about why he put together the show and what he feels the show has tried to achieve, looking back on two years of retro games criticism.

Michel Ancel’s directorial debut is explored in this super special edition of the InRetroSpect Review Show. Xero explains his feelings towards the early 32 bit era platformer, bringing the decisive verdict on this fondly remembered title from Ubisoft.

Xero gets in a copy of this SEGA platformer for a few ‘Knights’ (see what we did there?) to see if it’s still a classic title, or should gamers take it out back and put a ‘Sword’ to it…? (we’re sorry)

Xero shifts into top gear for his latest review, leaping into a Team Hornet branded racing car and taking Daytona USA out for a spin.

Straight from the arcades of old comes Virtua Cop, an early light gun shooter. But is it worth a shot, or is it a misfire all over? Xero gives the definitive verdict on this SEGA classic.

It’s time for Sonic The Hedgehog to take a back seat for a moment as the chief mascot of SEGA, as the InRetroSpect Review Show dusts off Ristar from the collection to see whether you should be adding it to your games collection. Is this relatively forgotten SEGA platformer a shining star when reviewed 15 years later, or does it burn up on re-entry? Xero investigates.

Xero takes a look at this Super Nintendo Japanese Role Playing Game ‘classic’, trying incredibly hard to not make any bad time related puns. Is it just the same as any other JRPG? Does its focus on choice offer anything new? Tune in to find out!

Flying reptiles, lazer weapons, tribal warfare, it’s a weird world that Panzer Dragoon paints, but is it one you should spend any time in? Xero investigates this Sega Saturn classic.

The return to the world stage of the most beloved 2D fighter series of all time, but is this a superb addition to the Street Fighter stable or one one-on-one brawler to avoid? Xero investigates…

In this month’s episode of the InRetroSpect Review Show, Xero takes Air Combat for a spin. Is Namco’s port of the arcade title still a dream to play after 15 years? Listen now to find out!

Oh, what’s this? Another episode of InRetroSpect? Fantastic. This month, Xero looks at the unique little 3D platformer that is Jumping Flash, but the big question is, is it any good?

This month Xero dusts off Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island to see if it holds up some 15 years later. Is the sequel to one of Miyamoto’s finest works any good? Download and find out!

This month Xero reviews Wing Commander III.

Not just one of the first games to use FMV, but one of the first mediums to use full CGI backgrounds. It cast  a full cast of professional characters (although it was not the first game to do so) including Mark Hamill, Malcom Mcdowell, John-Rys-Davies, and Tom Wilson [Who played Biff from Back to the Future fact fans]. Wing Commander III didn’t just pionner with it’s use of CGI, it also had the highest budget of any game made to that date ($4m).

The movies may have been groundbreaking, but were they any better than other failed attempts at intergrating live-action FMV? More importantly although billed as an interactive movie, was the interactive part any good? Xero Investigates.

A true 3D racer on the Super Nintendo? It can’t be done surely? It certainly can, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s good… Xero investigates this classic, but largely forgotten racer from 1994.

Final Fantasy 6 is one of those rare games that we hold up as a paragon of design, a title that we reminisce about fondly with friends. A perfect game then to take apart piece by piece to analyse whether it is still a classic RPG tale, or if its quality is now just a legend.

Streets Of Rage 3 was a side-scrolling brawler for the Mega Drive, how well has it held up after 15 years? Xero investigates…

Micro Machines was developed by Codemasters. Codemasters were most famous at the time for the Dizzy games, now they are more likely to be associated with racing games such as the Colin McRae franchise.

Micro Machines 2 Turbo Tournament was released 3 years after the original. It added hover boats and helicopters to franchise as well as a head to head mode. Codemasters developed the ‘J-Cart’ for the game which placed two controller ports on the cartridge allowing 4 people to play the game without the use of a 4 player adapter. The game would eventually be remade in the form of Micro Machines Turbo Tournament ‘96 exclusively for the Sega Mega Drive (Genesis).

Join us as Xero find out whether the game was a revolution in racing games leading to Codemasters future success in the genre, a fun distraction or a waste of time?
