I grew up with the PlayStation 1 under my tv stand and it's one of my favorite retro gaming platforms of all time...so I wanted to do SOME SORT of series on it. But considering it's more fun to talk about the esoteric side of retrogaming I decided to do a ten part series on arcade games that run on PSX hardware; the Capcom ZN-1 and ZN-2, the Namco System 10, Namco System 11 and Namco System 12, the Konami GQ and of course the Taito G-Net.

Up next: Crypt Killer! Konami made a ton of lightgun games for arcades and while Evil Night on the 3DO M2 is my favorite...Crypt Killer is no slouch! I own the original Konami GQ arcade board after all! But if you are into horror games ala The House of the Dead and have never played Crypt Killer...you are totally missing out! It's pure B movie horror retro gaming at its very best. Definitely an obscure gaming experience though!
Its basically The House of the Dead except with near to pure 2D sprites and a different setting...but it was Konami's take on the horror arcade genre and it came out before Sega's all time arcade classic. Sadly its rarely talked about but its a piece of video game history!
It's also available on PSX and Sega Saturn as well!
