^this post was awesome!

I don't play a lot of sports games, but honestly your blog is one of my favorites to keep an eye on lately. Just really great articles, man. You really know how to make an article interesting, even if you haven't played the game. Keep up the great work!

I'm trying to confirm if the PAL cart will work on my genesis if i use a game genie. I'd like to pick it up.
I won an eBay auction from a guy in the UK for a complete EA Hockey copy. With the shipping and currency conversion, ended up costing me $14.50 or something. It's an early enough PAL cart that the Genie should work and I shouldn't need to mod the Mhz (but if I do, I will since I'm going to upgrade one of my Genesis' to S-video).

Updated the first post with a listing of all the articles. They are in chronological order, not alphabetical since I title the articles outside of the game name.

I posted a teaser to my Madden article on the Old Game Reviewer website (they asked me to re-post my stuff there with links back to my site) and it went super retro viral. Over 100+ hits on just that article yesterday.

I've got a number of reviews in the queue for the next week or so but I did want to let people know I've updated this to include my full review and added in screenshots. I had put this together for Snackbar Games and only teased it at my site, but the number of click-throughs was really low so I wanted to make it available to all my readers.
