      The Big Blue Kickstarter ends unsuccessfully

      As expected, the Big Blue Kickstarter campaign, led by Ecco the Dolphin creator Ed Annunziata, ended unsuccessfully today. The campaign had 867 backers, who pledged $55, 764 but was far shy of the $665,000 goal. However, while the campaign may have been a failure, Annunziata has a plan that he recently revealed, where he’s going to develop a free demo of Big Blue, which will be known as Little Blue. Once it’s available, he plans to create…

      New Sonic hack released – and it’s pretty darn good

      There are tons of hacks around for the original Sonic the Hedgehog games. Some are good, some are a bit ‘meh’ – but it’s always nice to see what the hacking world can come up with. Well there’s a new release, from a Russian hacker, vladikcomper, over at SonicRetro – Sonic Winter Adventures and it’s pretty impressive. Quite a few hacks I’ve seen, will just take a Sonic game, change around the level designs and…

      Review: HOTD: Overkill – The Lost Reels

      When SEGA released The House of the Dead: Overkill on Nintendo’s Wii in late 2009, I was really blown away. First, by the mere fact a developer was able to make a great “lightgun” game for the system, and second, the game’s over-the-top “Grindhouse” atmosphere worked surprisingly well, even with the ridiculous overuse of the “F-bomb.” Fast forward to today, and there hasn’t been a truly new entry in the series apart from HOTD: Overkill –…

      Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai 2 gameplay trailer released

      SEGA has released a gameplay trailer for the upcoming Hatsune Miku: Mirai 2 game for the 3DS. The game was teased earlier this month, where we actually assumed it was part of the main Project DIVA franchise (also starring Hatsune Miku). However, Project Mirai is technically a spin-off series of games and so far has only appeared on the 3DS – whereas the main Project DIVA games have only really been on Sony platforms, with…

      DreamcastGaga visits SEGAKawaii store

      We reported the other week that to help launch its new ‘cute’ clothing brand, SEGAKawaii would be holding a two-week long exhibition in Tokyo’s Shibuya district. Unfortunately what with the SEGA Nerds’ team being based mostly in the US and me floating around on the the lonely isles of the UK, we haven’t been able to go visit the temporary store/exhibition setup by SEGA. “Best of all was the two game areas were they had…

The video is based on the real-life Battle of Teutoburg, where Roman forces were ambushed by German tribes. The narrated video explains some of the new features the game brings to the franchise and part of the game’s underlying story. Personally, I absolutely…

      Super Hang-On 20th Anniversary OST now available on Amazon

      So yeah, this was reported by a few SEGA fan sites yesterday and initially we didn’t report on it, because it didn’t make sense… sort of. Basically it was announced that Super Hang-On‘s 20th Anniversary soundtrack had been released on iTunes and Amazon. Why didn’t this make sense? Because it wasn’t Super Hang-On‘s 20th anniversary. It’s not even it’s anniversary year! Having another look in the cold morning light today, I realised where the confusion…

      Ghost Blade announced for Dreamcast

      Things are really looking up for Dreamcast fans this year, what with DUX 1.5 and Sturmwind being released recently. There’s also the announcement of Pier Solar HD coming to the Dreamcast and now, Hucast Games (makers of DUX) has announced another Dreamcast title, Ghost Blade. Ghost Blade is a scrolling shooter, but unlike DUX this one is vertical scrolling. And it looks like Hucast Games has stepped up its game, because, even in its Alpha…

      House of the Dead Overkill: The Lost Reels shoots onto Android and iOS

      It’s time to “suffer like G did” once again as the House of the Dead franchise has finally made its way to smartphones with House of the Dead Overkill: The Lost Reels. This is a quasi-sequel to the Wii’s House of the Dead Overkill, where you play as the same characters, Agent G and Detective Washington, in a game with a ridiculously over-the-top grindhouse movie feel to it. And I say ‘quasi-sequel’ as the game…

      Relic open to new Warhammer title if Games Workshop allows it

      Relic Entertainment has said that it is open to working on future Warhammer titles, if the franchises owner, Games Workshop, allows it. Following THQ’s bankruptcy earlier this year, Relic was bought by SEGA for $26.6million. Part of the deal secured SEGA with the rights to allow Relic to continue working on the Company of Heroes franchise, with Company of Heroes 2 due out in June. However, Relic was also well-known for working on the Warhammer…
