The Soviet Borgs are here to free you from your freedom! Along the way, they’ll shoot just about everything they see. Xenocider developer Retro Samus is back with a new Genesis title, and we got to try out an early version. The game looks promising so far, and it looks like a lot of exploration and shooting action for 16-bit fans.

Sasha Darko’s Sacred Line II
Sasha Darko returns with the second entry in the Sacred Line series, and it’s a step up from the original. Sacred Line II brings creepy visual horror to the Genesis in a much larger fashion than the original game, and it’s definitely a title worth playing during the Halloween season.
Resident Evil: Code: Veronica
Dreamcast owners got a special treat when Capcom gave them the exclusive next chapter in the Resident Evil saga. Code: Veronica brought 3D environments and big upgrades to the established gameplay, and while it stumbles a bit over its aging mechanics, it manages one hell of a ride. If you have a Dreamcast, then you simply have to own this game.
Zombie Revenge
In 1999, Sega expanded on its House of the Dead series with an solid beat-’em-up that came to Dreamcast the following year. Chock full of extras, Zombie Revenge was fun for a while, especially with a second player. It’s a little bare if you’re planning a long gaming session, but there’s enough fun to be had fending off the undead.
Resident Evil 2
Capcom gave Dreamcast owners another taste of Resident Evil with a quick port of the second game right after Code Veronica debuted. No major upgrades were included, and while this version wasn’t on the same level as the latest entry in the franchise, there was still some (undead) life left in the classic adventure that warranted another trip to Racoon City.
