    Keen and Graev have the list of servers for the Pirates of the Burning Sea launch, coming less than a month away now. The game will open with 12 North American servers, six European servers, and an unannounced number of Oceanic servers. Some of the servers are named after pirates (Blackbeard, Morgan, Kidd), while others are named after actual places (Guadeloupe, Barbados), and there's no indication from FLS if the separate naming conventions mean anything (WoW, for example, names PvP and RP servers in certain ways from standard PvE servers). If you're planning to set sail in Pirates at launch, now's the time to pick your server. And don't forget that if you preorder the game, you get to jump in ahead of time.Finally, on an almost-completely-unrelated- but-still-so-strange- we're-reporting-it-anyway note, West Karana points out that one of the servers' namesakes, Antigua, recently became a real place for pirates-- copyright pirates, that is. Antigua (the country, not the server), according to Slashdot, can ignore US copyrights for up to a year. So if you want to be a real pirate, there's only one server to play on.

    Seeing Alex Kidd was good and all, but now we're talking with new videos of Ecco the Dolphin and Columns that will be crammed into Sega Genesis Collection.I know there are a lot of young gamers around these days and some of you may not be old enough to have experienced the greatness of these two games. That's why I'm so excited Sega is releasing this collection of almost 30 Genesis games. It's kinda funny because Sega's old slogan - "Genesis does what Nintendon't" is so fitting. You see, Sega has put all their classic games onto one disc, while Nintendo forces gamers to buy all their NES games separately. For shame!

    If you enjoyed Alex Kidd on the Sega Genesis, you're sure to be salivating by now after just watching the above video. Alex Kidd, which was Sega's first answer to Mario, is one of nearly 30 old-school Genesis games making their way onto the PSP in the form of Sega Genesis Collection. The game comes packed with extras like exclusive interviews, behind-the-scenes footage and wireless multiplayer modes. What more can a Sega Fanboy ask for? Yeah, I said it.
