The Video Game Archeologist is a magazine style publication that is dedicated to keeping the memory of the golden age of gaming alive. During the 8 and 16-Bit era there were over 2,500 games released, yet most people would be hard pressed to name five that don't include "Mario, Sonic, or Final Fantasy" in the title. The primary focus of this series is to not only look back at some of the games we remember, but to also dig deep and examine games that time has forgotten. By utilizing hundreds of screenshots as well as an in depth review, each game recieves cover story treatment.

Volume 2 covers: Challenge of Nexar, Gauntlet, TechnoCop, Dahna, Yume Maboroshi, Defender of the Crown, Platoon, Revengers of Vengeance, Montezuma's Revenge, Teddy Boy, Nosferatu, Super Chase HQ, Legendary Axe, Ninja Spirit
