What made me so interested in computer games? Which games keep me going? Which games make me wish I'd watched TV instead? Good questions. This section will soon list all the computer games I ever played, and a mini review of each; The Techtite Review Archive!. Yes, as a matter of fact, I personally owned all of the games listed here!

Please note: some newer reviews from when this site was first constructed (after summer, 1999) have order links. However, after a few years there is no guarantee they still work. If they do, they are still online for your convenience.
