I think that was a genre that we were lacking representation. There’s so many great racing games from a variety of series, while Burnout 2: Point of Impact is one of our favourite it’s perhaps falls short of not being the best racer for the system.

With Halo Infinite delayed, Are you looking forward to the Series X launch?
I’m a big Xbox and Halo fan. Unfortunately I just cannot get excited about the series X/S launch. It’s not just the Xbox launch either, the PS5 doesn’t excite me either.
Do you guys think it’s the lack of news available for the new consoles? For the Xbox One/PS4 we…[Read more]

Congratulations once again to Unleash for getting the correct answer, which was of course – Land of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse.
Phil was close, but with his shotgun approach I couldn’t give it to him.
I’d like to thank everyone for taking part in the guess the game over the last 10 weeks. If you’d like to see it continue, likely with…[Read more]

Wait, or was it World of Illusion!!!
What’s your actual guess? So far you’ve said three titles there.
Barry Pearson replied to the topic What Games Would You Like to See on Sega’s Astro City Mini Arcade? in the forum All things Sega 4 years, 3 months ago
Wonderboy should be a given, along with either Shinobi or Shadow Dancer.

This is the final week of the Game Gear – guess the game.
This week we have one of the best selling titles on the console, but what is it?
Barry Pearson replied to the topic GUESS THAT GAME | GAME GEAR 30TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION WEEK #8 in the forum Game Gear 4 years, 3 months ago
This week’s correct answer is… Mortal Kombat 2.
Well done to Phil and Tom who got the answer right.
A cookie goes to Anthony who got the correct series, just not the entry 🍪.
Don’t forget to check out the penultimate Guess the Game here.

This week’s game is a little more obscure, with the main character only ever having two outings. One on the Sega 32X and the other this game gear platformer. But what’s the name of the game?
Barry Pearson replied to the topic Guess that Game | Game Gear 30th Anniversary Edition Week #7 in the forum Game Gear 4 years, 3 months ago
This week’s answer is Gunstar Heroes. So congratulations to Phil and Unleashed for the correct answers.
I was always free shot I think
Yeah you went free shot, I always preferred fixed shot for the 8-way firing.
Also I spent most stages just drop kicking and hurling the enemies anyway.
Barry Pearson replied to the topic GUESS THAT GAME | GAME GEAR 30TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION WEEK #8 in the forum Game Gear 4 years, 3 months ago
I think 2 from the outfits
Phil, I’m going to lock you into Mortal Kombat 2 with that comment.
Mortal combat. No idea which one
Just take a guess, I did make sure to include two characters in all titles, although the style of one of them will exclude one of the games in the series.
Barry Pearson started the topic GUESS THAT GAME | GAME GEAR 30TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION WEEK #8 in the forum Game Gear 4 years, 3 months ago
An easy one this week.
While you should get the series without too much trouble, which particular title is it?
Barry Pearson replied to the topic Guess that Game | Game Gear 30th Anniversary Edition Week #6 in the forum Game Gear 4 years, 4 months ago
The fire effect on his uppercut did make me think 2
You should have said Streets of Rage 2 then, why didn’t you?
