It’s not often someone sends you a message saying “here’s a video I made featuring a cover of the Monster Village theme from Wonder Boy III. Also it’s been done on a banjo.” Well that’s exactly what happened to me recently and the video was supplied by a certain Ollie LongZ; a talented little musician who has recently taken to arranging banjo covers of video game themes. Check out the impressive little arrangement below:
Here’s hoping Ollie has more SEGA covers up his sleeve, but if you’re interested you can check out another of Ollie’s cover’s by clicking here (it’s a Castlevania one).
Ooh this feels familiar! It’s been a while since we reviewed a retro title but today we present a review of Altered Beast on Master System! This also marks our first Master System game review at SEGADriven and we hope to have more coming soon.
Anyway, enough waffling! Click the link below and get reading!
Our 4th review round-up for this year’s Sonic Amateur Games Expo is now live. In this round-up we have in-depth reviews of Sonic Black Ace and Bingo the Multiva. We will continue to run more review round-ups throughout the event and try to cover as many games as possible.
There you have it; Akira Yuki from Virtua Fighter in Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax!
Akira appears as a part of the 20th anniversary celebrations of the release of the original Virtua Fighter. His appearance in Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax is that of a boss character who is partnered with Pai Chan as a support character.
As Akira only appears as a boss character he is not playable in the arcade game. Fingers crossed this will change if the game gets a home console release.
Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax is out in Japanese arcades this Spring.
Our 3rd review round-up for this year’s Sonic Amateur Games Expo is now live. In this round-up we have in-depth reviews of Sonic Xperience and Sonic X-Treme 2D. We will continue to run more review round-ups throughout the event and try to cover as many games as possible.
Our 2nd review round-up for this year’s Sonic Amateur Games Expo is now live. In this round-up we have in-depth reviews of Sonic Project Eclipse and Sonic Game Land. We will continue to run more review round-ups throughout the event and try to cover as many games as possible.
The Sonic Amateur Games Expo is almost upon us! This means it’s time for the final trailer before the show begins which is exciting as its the first time we’ve all seen any gameplay footage for the games featured at the show. Check it out below:
The Sonic Amateur Games Expo runs from February 23rd to March 1st 2014. It showcases a selection of fan made Sonic games as well as indie titles.
Ryu Ga Gotoku Ishin will receive exlusive PS3 bonus content for anyone who owns previous Yakuza PS3 games.
In a short interview with Siliconera, Toshihiro Nagoshi has revealed that if you have save data from past Yakuza games on your PS3 then you will receive “a little bonus”. This content is exclusive to the PS3 version of the game and will not make its way on the PS4 version.
Ryu Ga Gotoku Ishin is released in Japan on the 22nd of February. A Western release has not been confirmed at this time.
It’s been a while since we took a look back at some classic SEGA anthems and I thought it was worth featuring the below track simply because it’s been stuck in my head all morning!
Today we are taking a look at the rather lovely 8 bit ditty that is the theme to Jungle Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog for Master System and Gamer Gear. The track was composed by Yuzo Koshiro who is more famously recognised for his thumping, dance style and the Streets of Rage soundtracks.
The Sonic the Hedgehog 8 bit soundtrack showcases Yuzo Koshiro in a lighter, more poppier mood yet still manages to be a highly memorable collection of songs. Hopefully you will all be whistling the Jungle Zone theme once you’re done with this!
