I think you've got your Sega blinkers on mate, Sonic Adventures is such a hodge podge, from near greatness, mediocrity then right down flipping awful. Its like tucking into a nice lamb casserole to...

A big thing people seem to forget with the Wii and 3rd party developers, is the long standing assumption at the time and one that still lingers on that by using older tech that it benefitted...

I dont think I've ever seen a company flap its arms around so much whilst failing to execute on any strategy. I think Nintendo just did a Sega Saturn and rushed whatever luke-warm leftovers they had...

I like the fact the SMS has a small self contained library, its something you could collect & fully explore and indulge in, it really irks me reading posts from people who collect and never get round...

Some great points here. I watched the new trailer for the Zelda LttP sequel on 3DS and pretty much felt vaguely similar to what you described, nostalgia whoring. The assets used to create the style...

Shut your ill-informed mouth, child.

The Speccy was many things to many people, but it certainly wasn't Amigas shovelware whore.

Such a shame an inanimate block of slightly wonkily designed...

I really enjoyed the vibe and tone of Earthbound when I emulated it a few years back, especially the music, but the gameplay was and is garbage. Then again Final Fantasy and most grind(y) RPG's bore...

I suppose shit might smell different, but its still shit.

Much like trying to find the merits in Star Wars prequels, its a cynical exploitive mess. Wonder how many rounds of focus-grouping this title took to make.

CSK, the "badly run parent company" that financially saved Sega by wavering their debts? Wow thats new.

I don't get how you make this shit up, these threads might as well be Mr. Sega just sat in a...

I don't own nor have I even spent more than 5 minutes playing one (a retro game exhibition in London), but get a PC-Engine.

The roads less travelled are always more interesting.

Theres a...

Too bad the Intel 740 Starfighter/Real3d collaboration turned out to be a piece of shit, the PCI version performed better than the AGP version. So much for all that hyperbole.

Also on another...

I really don't get the fan-wank over Rouge Squadron on Gamecube, the game does do a good job at showcasing some nice environments and lighting, and runs at a fair old clip, but its a game that...

No, the Saturn does run at 352x224/240, its based on what speed you run the video/cpu clock at, 28.6 MHz means either a horizontal res of 352 or 704, at 26.6 MHz its 320 or 640.

Play ball:

SF Alpha series - Sagat, Ryu,
SF III - Ryu, Q

Virtue Fighter - Akira, Lau, Wolf

DOA - Hayabusa, Gen Fu

Its quite enjoyable watching Nintendo flapping there arms whilst running around in a circle trying to give the impression they understand what there doing. Nintendo releases a 2 minute video...

China are increasingly trying to deepen the wests reliance on there vast raw materials and manufacturing, lately on tech sites the big news is the chinese governments been taking pot-shots at Apple,...

You know what the best part of this article, though I'm cautious in suggesting or using Miller's wonderful honest account as some weapon to settle a score, but this blows most of that bullshit Sam...

Naisss.

Joined, don't have any decent multiplayer titles just yet though.

The Xbox did have slightly more feature rich DX-8 equivalent GPU, but your certainly right, the Wii was rewarmed 6th gen, and topped most of the stuff from that period, when developers could be...

Just reuse the cart slot from the Megadrive. Minor alterations to the internal hardware.

Megadrive + Mega CD in an ASIC, jam it on an expansion card. Milk consumer for money = Profit.

Your a contrarian, and not even a good one at that.

I had Wipeout 2097 about 10 years ago or so, it was the PAL version however so I'm not sure if it was optimised for 50hz, so cant comment on its speed. Bought Wipeout 1 from my local game shop and...

Standard double disc cd cases, nothing special about them, but I agree they were very sturdy.

When I get a Saturn again I might try collecting only plastic hard-cases for Pal games, I wonder if...

The large pool of EDRAM helps a lot in the Wii U's case, much like 360's own EDRAM for effects that require a lot of bandwidth.

However the Wii U according to sources has 32MB vs 4MB, which is...
