Alright, to set the record straight I’ve heard about this game through certain Neo Geo forums, but I’m no expert in regards to the major details behind this game. I remember someone was selling their copy back in 2005 but I’m not sure how much he got for it. I do remember the emphasis on [...]

Clock Tower is a horror series that has a cult following. Even though the original game on Super Famicom never made it out west, the following games on Playstation and PS2 were well received by the few that played them.

The first appearance of the Cheetahmen was [...]
