Sega Deals: Crush for $15 at Amazon

Critically acclaimed, criminally underlooked and completely fun to play. That’s Zoë Mode’s Crush for PSP in one sentence.
In case you missed it the first time around, now’s your chance to purchase one of the most innovative handheld titles this generation for a price so low it’s practically stealing from a blind, deaf and paralyzed person. […]

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 […]

If you’ve recently played Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer and have been yanking your hair out in frustration, you might think about trying a much easier, albeit equally bad game instead. EBGames is currently selling Alien Syndrome for the PSP for only $10.

Developer of Full Auto series closes shop

Pseudo Interactive, developer of the Sega-published Full Auto series, has shut down due to cutbacks at parent company SCi. Over 50 people were employed at the Toronto-based game developer as of 2006. The company was reportedly working on an unnamed project that has now been canceled.

Alien Soldier hits the Virtual Console

Are you scared? I’m scared. Hold me.
Alien Soldier exploded onto the Virtual Console today for eight bucks nine dollars? What? What tomfoolery is this?
Oh! It’s never had a real North American release, you say? A sidescrolling run-and-gun shooter by Treasure, you say? Made predominantly of rockin’ boss fights, you say? Not on the Sega […]
