(AfroGamers.com) I still remember sitting too close to the screen, controller damp in my hands, my boy on the second pad next to me, both of us whisper yelling so we wouldn’t wake nobody’s mama. That was the era. Couch, split screen, no headset required because the trash talk was ...
(AfroGamers.com) Real ones remember the first drop. The bus, the little glider, that half second your boots hit grass and somebody was already cracking your shield before you’d even found a gun. There was a purity to it back then. You against ninety nine strangers, a storm squeezing the map ...
(AfroGamers.com) I been gaming long enough to remember exactly where I was when the first trailer dropped.

(AfroGamers.com) Pokeclones are a favorite subgenre of mine and Koei Tecmo’s Monster Rancher is one of my favorites. It dropped at a time of others such as Medabots, Robopon, Dragon Quest Monsters and an adjacent title such as Digimon. Not too long after Monster Rancher landed on PSX we’d see ...
