The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Virgin’s lovable caveman belly-flops his way onto the Game Gear, but he’s kind of devolved in the process. Instead of a Cro-Magnon hero, we instead got a Neanderthal who lumbers through dark and silent stages. While the core (no pun intended) of what made the Genesis game is intact, the presentation and gameplay have suffered.
Few companies know the strategy genre like Koei, and its Romance of the Three Kingdoms series has endured for decades. The second game appeared on the Genesis, and while it’s a bit rough in the interface, there’s some fun to be had if you’re a fan of political intrigue and nation-building.
Sega has debuted a new service for Android and iOS that offers free downloads of its console classics! Each month, new games will be made available, and there’s even a promise of Dreamcast and other games! Check out our preview for more information and get ready to play some Sega games on your phone.

This is definitely one you’ll want in your game library.
May has come and gone, and the summer is about to start.
