A new Sonic X Shadow Generations trailer has dropped and this time it puts the focus squarely on Shadow’s new Doom powers that he inherits from Black Doom. Shadow can now use 5 new abilities called Doom Spear, Doom Blast, Doom Morph, Doom Wing and Doom Surf and they are all showcased in this new trailer. Check it out:
Sonic X Shadow Generations releases on October 25th 2024 on PS4, PS5, PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch. The game comes in a standard edition which includes a copy of Gerald Robotnik’s journal, a reversible cover and a Sonic Adventure skin for Sonic. There is also a digital deluxe edition which includes an additional skin and level for Shadow, alongside a digital art book and soundtrack. Limited Run Games are also producing a collector’s edition which includes a Sonic and Shadow Dreamcast statue, a physical art book and soundtrack plus many more goodies.
1991’s Asterix for the Master System is a game that is likely going to be shrugged off as “Euro trash” by a certain contingent of retro gamers (cough cough, Americans, cough cough) thanks to the franchise’s French origins. Licensed platformers also don’t have a great track record when it comes to quality, but what we’ve got here is an internally developed SEGA platformer from an era when the company were on a hot streak.
A recently discovered 1995 prototype of Pinocchio for the 32X has been discovered. Dumped by Radar and released by drx, this 32X version of the game features a wider colour palette and some additional layers of parallax scrolling backgrounds. You can see the game in action via our video below, where we also compare it to the eventual 1996 Mega Drive release:
Eric Chahi’s Another World was a monumental achievement in 1991 featuring beautiful artwork, rotoscoped animation and cinematics that were animated using flat polygons instead of pixel art. This masterfully directed piece of work features no heads-up-display at all and each scene must be played through trial and error to discover how to progress.
New on our YouTube Channel is the first Review Request. The concept of this feature is we ask our followers to suggest a Mega Drive game for us to review. We choose one we haven’t played before, have a little muck around with it and share our first impressions.
For the first edition of Review Request, Titanscreed from Project Phoenix Productions requested Sparkster. Check out our opinion of the game below:
We’ve spoken about Freedom Planet in the past as the game has been doing the rounds in the Sonic community for quite some time.
However, Strife (the developer) has now taken the game to the next step and is seeking funding using Kickstarter and Steam Greenlight.
At the time of writing the game has smashed its’ funding goal of $2000 with an impressive total of $7580. However, with 25 days to go you can still get involved with one of the more impressive SEGA-inspired projects out there.
So the new James Bond film ‘Skyfall’ is out today. We’re big fans of Daniel Craig’s James Bond so we decided to celebrate in the most SEGA way possible, by playing James Pond II: Codename Robocod! See what we did there?
Senile Team, the indie developers responsible for the fantastic Rush Rush Rally Racing, have just released a free downloadable platformer for the Dreamcast called… wait for it…
Polyko’s Super Jelly Bean Quest in the Sketchbook of Illusion.
Bit of a mouthful eh?
The game is a simple platformer that can be downloaded from Senile Team’s website for nothing. The file contains a disc image that must be burned with a package like Discjuggler to play on your Dreamcast.
