SEGADriven is a SEGA news and information source that focuses on SEGA's console history, retro games and new software hitting the shelves. We want to share a love of great, quirky, clever and down-right fun games - something that SEGA have always specialised in. See below for the latest news, reviews and features added to the website.
Golden Axe Myth is a new Golden Axe fangame developed using OpenBOR; a Streets of Rage-style engine made specifically to power the development of side-scrolling beat-em-ups. The game has recently been released along with a downloadable soundtrack and art ‘book’.
Unlike a lot of OpenBOR games, the graphics for Golden Axe Myth are completely drawn from the ground up giving the game a completely unique look. Take a look at some gameplay footage below:
Want to see a complete act of modern Sonic’s Green Hill from Sonic Generations?
I think it’s safe to say the Hedgehog Engine that made it’s debut in Sonic Unleashed is definitely powering Sonic Generations. You could easily mistake this video for the announcement of new DLC for Unleashed!
We’ve spoken about Hez’s Sonic the Hedgehog Classic before and had much praise for it. Sonic Classic is a 16 bit style fan-game created in MMF. The project has come along leaps and bounds since the last time we mentioned it. So much so that it’s finally been released!
SEGA have announced a new, free-to-play online MMO for PC called Spiral Knights. The game is being developed by Three Rings who are also responsible for Yohoho! Puzzle Pirates. As is typical for MMOs, the game is of the sword combat and magic variety but with a rather cute and inoffensive presentation. Check out the announcement trailer below:
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.
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?
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!).
4 years ago, BlazeHedgehog (infamous for his fan-game ‘Sonic: The Fated Hour’) was developing a 2D remake of Sonic the Hedgehog 06.
Why remake one of the worst Sonic games of all time? Blaze explains that he was disappointed by the game’s release as all the pre-release hype promised “a High-Def, Next-Generation return to the good parts of the original Sonic Adventure” which was obviously appealing to most Sonic fans at the time.
Unfortunately, all hope for the project was lost when Blaze encountered computer problems which meant he hasn’t been able to access the source material for 4 years.
Earlier this year Blaze finally managed to gain access to the source material and has to decided to polish up the game and release it as is (approximately 85% complete) as he doesn’t have the time to finish it completely.
Check out the below trailer to see what the final release includes:
Here we have 2 doses of new Anarchy Reigns gameplay footage to show off. First off we have Jack’s character trailer:
I’m really hoping the inclusion of Jack from MadWorld is an indication that we might see more SEGA cameos in Anarchy Reigns. How about Axel from Streets of Rage, eh Platinum?
Finally we have a whole heap of gameplay in the first trailer focussing on the entire game and not specific characters. Check it out:
