A new review!? That doesn’t happen very often!
Today I bring you a bumper review in the form of 3 Dreamcast indie games. We have decided to review DUX, DUX 1.5 and Redux: Dark Matters as a single, bumper review simply because the games are so similar and it’s a lot easier to compare the pros and cons against each of the games.

“Have you ever bought a game you were really excited about only to be disappointed? I’m sure we all have. Have you ever tried to convince yourself that said game is actually better than you think it is? Perhaps. Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed (now known as SASRT from here on) fits into both categories.”

Gunlord is the latest game from indie developers NG:Dev.Team who are better known for Last Hope and Fast Striker. In a slight move away from the shoot-em-up genre, they present us with an action game in the Turrican vain.

20 years of Sonic the Hedgehog! That’s a bit of a mad concept, isn’t it? What better way to celebrate it then with an anniversary game! Sonic Generations is here to do just that, but is it a game that celebrates Sonic’s history in style or does it miss the mark? Lucky we reviewed it so you can find out!

Movie games are a right old mixed bag, aren’t they? For every Spider-Man 2 there’s a hundred Enter the Matrix’s. But they’re so tempting! I mean, who doesn’t want to play one of their favourite action movies?
So here comes along Thor: God of Thunder. Marvel video games tend to be better than most but does Thor hammer this one home? Click here to find out in our full review!

My Mega CD addiction continues! This time we’ve got Batman Returns, developed by Malibu Interactive.
The game is actually a continuation of the film’s storyline and not an interpretation of it. The Mega CD version adds extra Batmobile stages to the original Mega Drive version’s platforming stages as well as a new soundtrack composed by Spencer Nilsen.
Click here to be taken straight to the review where you’ll find out whether this is worth adding to your Mega CD collection!

Ever wanted to shunt baddies off the road in an invincible death-mobile and watch them explode like in the films? Well Road Avenger is the game for you!
I’ve just uploaded a complete review of the Mega CD FMV-fest and you can read it by clicking this link. There’s a lot of FMV games on the Mega CD; is this one to hit or miss?
Now sing it with me!

Helen’s at it again with a review of Sonic’s only foray into RPG-Land; Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood for Nintendo DS. You can access her review by clicking this link.
Again, Helen takes an interesting approach by reviewing this with no prior Bioware knowledge and judges the game on its’ own merits. It also takes a more observational stance.

The lovely Helen Doherty has reviewed the X-Box 360 version of SEGA Superstars Tennis for SEGADriven. You can access the review by clicking this link.
Helen takes an interesting, retrospective approach with this review by comparing the game to Sumo Digital’s more recent Superstars entry, ‘Sonic and SEGA All-Stars Racing’. She also takes into account that the game can now be purchased for a very low, second-hand price (£3 from CEX!? Get involved!).
Massive thanks to Helen for reviewing this!
