The world's premier resource for SEGA's arcade and console hardware legacy!
Hentai has been around in gaming for the longest time, but very rarely has it ever tried to go mainstream. When it does, it’s usually nothing more than a half-baked attempt at trading gameplay for some cheap T&A. Divine Sealing is one such unabashed example of a game trying to cover up its glaring faults with digital nakedness. Honestly, when nudity is no help, you know something is very, very wrong…
Among the plethora of shmups available on the Genesis is Atomic Robo-Kid, a game that has received heavy criticism over the years. Guess what? It’s about to receive some more. Sega-16 sat down with the game, and came away…less than impressed, to say the least
The Sega CD is home to many an underappreciated title, and over the years many great games have sat in silence, awaiting some long-overdue attention. One example is Android Assault: Revenge of Bari-Arm, a fun and engaging shmup that was largely overlooked by gamers at the time (that probably had something to do with it being released right after Silpheed, which was the center of an absurd amount of hype). Aren’t you lucky then, that we have a full review to give you an idea of what you missed and why you should find yourself a copy ASAP
So many shmups were left in Japan, and sometimes that was a good thing. such was the case with Asmik’s VeryTex, which was pretty darn mediocre. Read our full report to see just how much.
The 32X tried really hard to impress with its 3D visuals, and to be frank, it didn’t really succeed all that often. Sega also tried hard to attract gamers with innovative gameplay ideas, and they even resurrected a long-forgotten franchise in the attempt. Zaxxon’s Motherbase 2000 didn’t exactly do its namesake justice, but didn’t exactly fall on its face either. Check out our full report for all the flat-shaded details!
