The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
For years now, many gamers have wondered what Sega’s plans are concerning their back catalogue of games. We’ve seen a few brands rise from their graves, like OutRun and Ecco the Dolphin, but there’s growing concern about the future of two of their premier RPG series: The Shining games and Phantasy Star. Where are they going? Will we ever see new entries in the classic style?
There’s nothing like a four-day weekend for getting caught up on one’s gaming pile of shame. Amid several hour stretches of Dragon Quest VIII (screw the haters; it’s amazing), some love was also given to another famous RPG series, which only saw one outing on the Genesis – Dungeons & Dragons. Warriors of the Eternal Sun is short and sweet and very much worth checking out.
The 32X found some light-hearted platforming action with Sega’s off-the-wall platformer Tempo. It’s colorful and completely weird, and it’s also a 32X exclusive. If you own the little mushroom and are looking for a solid platformer for it, then give Tempo a try. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll scramble to lower the volume once the cows start yodeling.
Sega’s signature RPG series goes portable on the Game Boy Advance. It’s missing the fourth game, and a few compromises make it less than the ideal compilation, but there’s still lots of fun to be hand stomping Dark Force on the GBA. Our full write up has all the details.
The Genesis is the home to many great sports titles, and its diversity goes beyond just different genres. Our 16-bit loving cousins across the pond got in on the action too, with games like Elitserien ’95, which was the Swedish league version of EA’s NHL series.
