Welcome to Retro-Sanctuary this website was started on March the 25th 2008 to provide quality info on all things retro, from the Atari 2600 right up until the Dreamcast, I intend to have a quality reviews section which will have not only my own writing but details of scores received from popular publications of the time, a forum where like minded individuals can talk about the good old days, as well as this I intend to write many interesting features, including top 100 lists and game comparisons and to provide a general all-around quality retro service.

07/04/2009: Added a Top 100 Master System Games of all Time feature here and there's also a genre feature on Run and Gun Games that I actually finished weeks ago but forgot to mention which is here

26/02/2009: I've recently been neglecting the comparisons section of late so I just added two more 16-bit ones James Pond II - Robocod and Joe and Mac - Caveman Ninja

04/02/2009: We've got two major updates to the site this time, my feature on the Top 100 N64 Games Ever Made and finally the site has a forum! though it's still in it's very early days at the moment.

10/01/2009: Hope everyone had a good Christmas, mine was pretty dull tbh, as they tend to be as you get older, anyway I've added a new genre feature, this one's about top down shooters , I also cleaned up the pages on the 100 games video's so that they now have full game lists next to all of them.

03/11/2008: Added a new feature to the genre section, this one about kart racing games, it's a short but sweet one this time.

23/10/2008: I've finally managed to re-synchronise with my site after a virus knocked out my PC, and I had to format my hardrive and start loads of stuff again :( So here's the long overdue Top 100 Mega Drive games feature

25/08/2008: Finished my Top 40 3DO games, read it here, I'm pretty confident that one day i'll be able to improve it and upgrade to a top 50 (if I'd added Japanese language only games I could've easily made it a top 50 but I decided that the language barrier is too much for the average gamer) for now this is going to be as good as it gets.

13/08/2008: Finished my feature on scrolling Beat-em-ups, read it here, as well as a comparison of Thunderforce 3. Sorry for the slow updates but everything is taking a lot longer to do than I first thought it would, I've recently ordered a USB capture card for my PC which i'm hoping will allow me to get more done in a faster period.

12/07/2008: I 've been quite busy for the past week working on the Reviews archive in an attempt to get it to a stage where it is more useful, there's been quite a major update to it information wise on this occasion.
