GAME asks for your favourite game of all time

 

UK based retailer GAME is asking anybody and everybody to vote for their favourite video game of all time. Unlike a lot of ‘Best Ever’ votes where you have to choose from a list of crappy over-rated games, you actually get to name any game ever made. Which is pretty cool.
I think it […]

CATS ON MY DS?! Yume Neko DS trailer

Have a gander at Sega’s upcoming ripoff of Nintendo’s popular pet simulator Nintendogs, featuring ferociously furry felines rather than curiously callipygian canines. Yume Neko DS looks practically identical to Nintendogs barring the starring species, which might not be such a bad thing since Nintendogs happens to be the best-selling Nintendo DS title ever with […]

Jackie Chan a Sega fan?

 
If anyone knows me, they will know that two of my greatest loves of all time are the almighty Jackie Chan (been a fan for some 18 years now) and the Dreamcast (which everyone loves really).
Well Siliconera has done a little mention of Jackie Chan’s latest screen venture, The Forbidden Kingdom, co-starring Jet Li, Yifei Liu… […]

It’s a huge week for gamers, what with Mario Kart Wii already on sale and Grand Theft Auto 4 and a huge update to PC multiplayer shooter Team Fortress 2 set for Tuesday. It would be easy to forget that Sega and Secret Level’s Iron Man game is scheduled for release this Friday. Hey, […]

Saturn homebrew still going strong?

Well I don’t know if we could call the Saturn homebrew market “strong” but there is definitely something going on out there.
Racketboy has recently interviewed one of the big players on the Saturn homebrew scene, Rockin-B, who is the organiser of C4, the annual Sega Saturn Coding Contest, amongst other things.
Anyway, the interview talks a […]

Dreamcast, ahead of it’s time? Trusted Reviews think so

In a time when Sega Nerds are used to reading about how bad the Dreamcast and other Sega products were from some quite foolish sites - we do tend to come across some more uplifting articles. Trusted Reviews has just done a lovely little piece on the Dreamcast, and why it was ahead of […]

Worst consoles ever? Or possibly the worst article ever?

{Note: Apologies but this article was lost during the transfer to b5. Fortunately the article itself had been saved, but any of the comments you filed have not. So apologies for that, we had some good replies originally}
It’s not unusual to see at least one piece of Sega hardware making a “Worst List” […]

Sega reveals Iron Man’s wardrobe

Sega has revealed a whole array of “costumes” (I guess one could call them that), that Tony Stark shall be wearing when he takes on his super hero persona of Iron Man, in the upcoming game… (err) Iron Man.
As well as the main suit featured in the movie, players will get to strut, thrust […]

Happy Tree Friends coming soon on Steam

Despite being set for release in about two weeks, Happy Tree Friends: False Alarm has stayed decidedly low-profile. We know practically nothing about the game, having seen only one video showing actual in-game footage.
We did know the game was set for release on both the Xbox Live Arcade and PC platforms. We did not know […]

English of the Dead featuring zombies in bikinis

[youtube Iof5bzvApFA]
Sega released an extended trailer for their upcoming English trainer/zombie-killing simulator. I really don’t know what else to say about the video; you’ll just have to watch it for yourself.
Be sure to keep an eye out for this cutie:

Now that’s what I’m talking about!
The game’s official site is also online now. (In Japanese only, […]
