Year: 1988
Fun Fact: originally released in the arcades and then on TG16 as Bikkuriman World
Wonder Boy in Monster Land is easily the best 1980s platformer not starring a fat, little, Italian guy. It deserves all the praise that its sequel instead receives and then some. If you’ve ever wondered what it would feel [...]

In the latest edition of the UK Nintendo Power Magazine they included a massive 8-page preview of Sonic Unleshed (for the Wii version obviously). They talk about gameplay, provide screenshots, and have an interview with the games lead designer, Yoshihisa Hashimoto.

The screen shots show a CG scene as well as some possible gameplay (as seen above). With a title of “Sonic Unleashed” I am sure there will be [...]
