MediEvil Resurrection – Review

In 1998, an underdog action game called MediEvil hit the PlayStation. Although it didn't make much of a splash, its likable undead hero and reasonably solid play led into a sequel and something resembling minor cult status among those keeping an eye on the fringe.

The main difference? Instead of a small splash, it slips silently into the water and sinks to the bottom.

Ghosthunter – Review
