The Sega Master System was not a complete failure, it did sell more than the Pioneer LaserActive and the Nintendo Virtual Boy. That is like bragging about coming in third from last but it is not last, right? Anyhow, a new game is in development for the classic Sega console, a game based on Bruce […]

Oceanhorn- Monster of Uncharted Seas Now Available
March 17th, 2015 Carl Williams It is not all that often that we get to discuss games that are similar to Nintendo’s Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker. Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas is just that though, complete down to having a boat to get around the game world’s islands. Oceanhorn is not a rip-off but more of a homage to […]

Kickstarter: Infernax Bringing 8-Bit Horror 2D Action Back from the Dead
February 22nd, 2015 Carl Williams Ah, the good old days of 8-Bit gaming. For those of us that have been around long enough to remember those days, particularly the end of that era, will probably remember how gamers quickly dropped it.

Review- Castlevania Spectral Interlude for ZX Spectrum
February 16th, 2015 Carl Williams Okay, this is a tough review to write for me. Not because it is a bad game or anything but because Castlevania Spectral Interlude is just so damned good. While this is a fan made title, i.e. technically illegal as Konami has not licensed this version, it feels like an official Konami release. Aleksander Udotov […]

February 16th, 2015 Carl Williams The Walking Dead is an interesting hit for A&E Television, a station that is kind of new to the zombie genre. On one hand it is completely outside of their comfort zone for content and on the other it fits right in with the current motif of action shows. The team at Kabuto Factory are […]
