Sega does what Nintendon't on your PSP
If you're into classic games like me, you're probably eagerly awaiting the Nintendo Wii's Virtual Console feature so that you can play not only some Nintendo games, but some Genesis games as well. For those of you Sony fanboys that'll avoid the Wii like its a smelly grandmother, there's finally an alternative: Sega Genesis Collection, a compliation of nearly thirty Genesis games is heading to the PSP. The disc will not only come loaded with the games, but exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. PSP owners can rejoice in knowing that an exclusive wireless multiplayer mode is being created just for them. Maybe it'll even support Game Sharing? (I hope so!) Here's the list of games: Alex Kidd Altered Beast Bonanza Bros. Columns Comix Zone Decap Attack Ecco the Dolphin Ecco: The Tides of Time Ecco Jr. Eternal Champions Flicky Gain Ground Golden Axe Golden Axe II Golden Axe III Phantasy Star II Phantasy Star III Phantasy Star IV Ristar Shadow Dancer: Secret of Shinobi Shinobi III Sonic the Hedgehog Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Super Thunderblade Sword of Vermillion Vectorman Vectorman 2 Virtua Fighter 2 Whoa... out of breath just reading that list. Visit 1up to see details about all of these classics.
Golden Axe, very little armor
Joystiq had a post about some blurry next gen Golden Axe screens a few days ago. Turns out that SEGA actually released some very nice non-blurry character art during E3. Readers, meet Tyris. Tyris, readers. Check out one more shot after the jump (safe for work, but that doesn't mean your co-workers won't think you're a perv).
Fuzzy E3 Golden Axe shots surface
Close to a year ago, Sega announced a partnership with Secret Level that would revive a classic Sega franchise. A few guesses about what that franchise might be were tossed around over the months, and then, during this year's E3, Sega quietly announced that Golden Axe would be the series receiving the next-gen makeover.A trailer for the new Golden Axe was previewed behind closed doors at Sega's E3 booth. For whatever reason, the video has been slow to turn up on the internet. Retroplayer.tv recently posted 20 -- extremely blurry -- still frames. Anyone else have a link to a better reproduction?
