The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Gear Taro has been making great strides in bringing new software to the Game Gear. With two releases out so far, the developer is breathing new life into one of Sega’s more underrated consoles. In this short interview, he shares how the new software came about and how it could lead to a bright future of new games.
The Soviet Borgs are here to free you from your freedom! Along the way, they’ll shoot just about everything they see. Xenocider developer Retro Samus is back with a new Genesis title, and we got to try out an early version. The game looks promising so far, and it looks like a lot of exploration and shooting action for 16-bit fans.
Sasha Darko returns with the second entry in the Sacred Line series, and it’s a step up from the original. Sacred Line II brings creepy visual horror to the Genesis in a much larger fashion than the original game, and it’s definitely a title worth playing during the Halloween season.
Dreamcast owners got a special treat when Capcom gave them the exclusive next chapter in the Resident Evil saga. Code: Veronica brought 3D environments and big upgrades to the established gameplay, and while it stumbles a bit over its aging mechanics, it manages one hell of a ride. If you have a Dreamcast, then you simply have to own this game.
In 1999, Sega expanded on its House of the Dead series with an solid beat-’em-up that came to Dreamcast the following year. Chock full of extras, Zombie Revenge was fun for a while, especially with a second player. It’s a little bare if you’re planning a long gaming session, but there’s enough fun to be had fending off the undead.
