Feature on the gorgeous JVC WonderMega from from Sega Force 5 - May 1992 (UK)
I nearly have all consoles that I want, but this is one of the very few that I wish I had...
I don't have any real retro games I want to play enough to say get a hold of an emulator; I fully admit most games I played 10 hours a day in my youth (the 1980s) were shit. The oldest games might actually fancy to play still functions on Steam.
Of course there were good ones like Arkanoid, Uridium, Balder Dash, Tetris and a bit later Defender of the Crown and a few others, but most were played because they were the only game in town.
It took them a very long time, but Limited Run finally got both the regular Game Boy as well as the newly done Game Boy Color version of Trip World to me.
As I'm now thinking about some of my favourite Playstation 3 games, I wanted to do a shoutout to Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes.
This is Capcom's take on Omega Force's Musou (Warriors) games.
Even more over the top and somewhat more of an action game, even if you're not into the whole Musou thing, I still recommend to check this one out.
It is also on the Wii btw.
Absolutely brilliant series that rarely left Japan, sadly.
Decided to pick up 2 ¥5000 PSN cards on Play-Asia last night and grab a bunch of PC-Engine and PSone games that I was still missing on my PS3.
I notice that certain games that I bought before seem to have been delisted over the years...
I was shocked that I didn't have Devil's Crush yet, despite having Alien Crush. No idea how that came to be.
While it's not quite the start of the weekend yet, I've lost way to much time by being sick these past couple of weeks, so I wanted to get a head start this time.
So what better way to do this than with a new magazine release.
GamesMaster 79 - March 1999 (UK) has just been added to the magazine catalogue.
If you ever saw a pixel-perfect screenshot from a virtual machine running MS-DOS in the default VGA text mode, you probably noticed that it looks slightly off.
The characters are too wide, and the whole image seems stretched.
But did you know that what you’re seeing is a perfect representation of the actual image, while your monitor from 1995 was deceiving you? Let’s have a closer look.
