This week's pair of games presents itself as royalty and nobility, but that just goes to show how little the divine right of kings is worth these days. Not that Poseidon Wars 3-D is bad, mind you, but it certainly doesn't have much going for it beyond its historic connections. No, not its connection to Greek mythology (it doesn't actually have one)—I mean its links to Sega's own past. That's certainly more than Lord of the Sword has going for it, a game that plays like someone dredged a forgotten mid-tier Falcom clone from the PC-88 library and did nothing whatsoever to freshen it up.
