Saboteur 2 Gets Upgraded to 128k on ZX Spectrum Gaming Computer

Back in the day games had very limited graphics and sound capabilities.  Developers had to work to get gamers drawn into the game world they created.  Work hard.  Take a game like Saboteur 2, in its original form it was a good game but could have been better.  Of the many platforms Saboteur 2 hit […]

Fans Plan to Release Phantasy Star Online 2, Sega Silent on Matter

It is no secret that things with Sega have kind of gone downhill since the demise of the Sega Dreamcast.  Things have just not been the same with the once great company that took on Nintendo, and arguably, won in the 16-Bit gaming days.  It seems that the Dreamcast just won’t die though on many […]
