Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 12 years, 9 months ago
Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing Review

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it" - Trite as the adage may be, kart-racers found their balance of fun, skill and challenge some time ago, so it's no wonder recent releases have had more than a few things in common. Despite this the iOS has been sorely lacking in strong contenders for the genre, that is until now. Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing packs in everything you'd expect to see in a kart-racer while managing to make the clashing worlds work in its favor. It's hard to imagine h…

Streets of Rage 2 Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 12 years, 11 months ago
Streets of Rage 2 Review

Trying to review games like Streets of Rage 2 can be difficult - other SEGA Genesis emulated titles for the App Store have suffered from a similar problem - notably, it's hard to separate the nostalgia from the reality that is in front of you. Some games have aged poorly while others have stood the test of time and despite its age Streets of Rage 2 manages to keep its charm in spite of the emulator that surrounds it. Despite the supposed defeat of 'Mr.X' in the original title, Adam Hu…

Virtua Fighter 2 Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 2 months ago
Virtua Fighter 2 Review

Wait wait wait, before you get too excited, this is the Genesis version of Virtual Fighter 2 (VF2), so don't come in expecting crazy old-school 3D fighting madness. With that said, VF2 on the Genesis was a fairly competent fighter, emulating the fighting system available in the 3D version in a 2D arena, creating something unique and strangely enjoyable at the same time. As with all of the Genesis emulated titles you're stuck with a virtual d-pad and three buttons (none of which are cu…

Sonic Spinball Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 2 months ago
Sonic Spinball Review

Sonic the Hedgehog had an odd period in his career where he was placed in all sorts of strange predicaments and situations that have (in retrospect) been considered fairly questionable. Though strangely enough, the idea of Sonic in a pinball game wasn't much of a stretch and in 1993 gamers were given Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball (or Sonic Spinball as it's now known on the App Store) by SEGA. While regular pinball titles were often content with simple physics engines and skill-shots to…

Altered Beast Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 2 months ago
Altered Beast Review

SEGA have been busy in their mineshafts, digging down through the lower strata of their video game release bedrock and recently managed to recover and repackage a classic that just about everyone from the 90s should remember - Altered Beast. As a spirit summoned by Zeus to fight off the evil Neff you are able to to collect spirit balls in order to power up and transform in to were-creatures over five different stages. Each level scrolls automatically, forcing you to continually fight…

Football Manager Handheld™ 2011 (US and Japan) Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 3 months ago
Football Manager Handheld™ 2011 (US and Japan) Review

There have been very few games I have actively sought not to play, but I'm almost loathe to admit that Football Manager by SEGA is one of them. I should perhaps caveat that this isn't because I dislike these intensely statistic based games; no, I just know how badly enthralled I am by them - once you're down the rabbit hole you can kiss just about everything else you had on your schedule goodbye. 'Handheld(TM) 2011' is the latest installment in the franchise and the second release for…

Gunstar Heroes Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 4 months ago
Gunstar Heroes Review

Sometimes it's hard to keep the torch of my youth alive and fondly remembering oodles of time being wasted on a game like Gunstar Heroes fills me with joy. Unfortunately nostalgia can be a brittle thing and when poor controls make an already challenging game even harder, the warm buzz of the past is quickly usurped by frustration. SEGA's emulated titles for the iDevices have been difficult to enjoy as there's nothing quite like having physical controls to maneuver with the exacting de…

ChuChu Rocket! Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 5 months ago
ChuChu Rocket! Review

If you never had a chance to play ChuChu Rocket! the first time around on the Dreamcast, then you're in for a treat as SEGA have ported this title over for the App Store. This classic puzzle title of 'cat and mouse' antics takes a somewhat surreal twist as you attempt to help the mice (Chu-Chus) to escape the clutches of the hungry cats (Kapu-Kapu). Both the mice and the cats will run endlessly around in loops, turning to their right every time they hit a surface and you'll need to di…

Sonic The Hedgehog 4™ Episode I Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 5 months ago
Sonic The Hedgehog 4™ Episode I Review

It has been a long time coming, but Sonic The Hedgehog finally feels like it has come back home. My reunion with the blazing blue hedgehog was a tentative one - I won't lie, I was scared I'd be burned like I was with Rush 2 - but once I dove in I was at once relieved and surprised to find that things just felt... right. And this is no mean feat, especially for iDevices without physical inputs - a bane to all platformers trying to recapture the past glory of the 8 and 16 bit era. Howev…

Ecco the Dolphin Review

Ecco the Dolphin Review

Once again, SEGA has dragged one of their premium titles from the 90's kicking and screaming on to the App Store and the lucky pick this time is Ecco the Dolphin. This loveable aquatic mammal has been left behind to discover why his pod was sucked up in to the sky and he'll travel around the globe and time to get to the bottom of things. SEGA's Genesis emulator for the App Store is put in to overdrive to get Ecco blasting his way through the seas and the controls are surprisingly good…

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Review

With Sonic the Hedgehog being on every electronic device that's in some way wired to the internet (and possibly on some varieties of toasters), it was only a matter of time before the sequel made its debut. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was a landmark title for the Genesis (or Mega Drive for those of you outside the US) that is still one of the consoles highest selling games. Much like the port of Sonic the Hedgehog for the iPhone the controls are simplified with a virtual d-pad for movement a…

Super Monkey Ball 2 Review

If you’ve jumped at the sound of this title, then it’s safe to say that you know what’s coming. Monkeys! In balls! Yes, the sequel to the highly popular Super Monkey Ball has hit the iPhone and gives players more monkey rolling madness than you could throw a banana at. The core gameplay is still the same but there are a number of improvements and additions you’ll love. Much like the first game, players control their monkeys by using the iPhone's tilt accelerome…

Sonic the Hedgehog Review

Review SEGA By Andrew Nesvadba, 14 years, 9 months ago
Sonic the Hedgehog Review

Just about every mobile device has had an incarnation of this popular classic console game and there's no reason that SEGA shouldn't have brought it to the iPhone too. Iconic in its design and gameplay, the iPhone version of Sonic the Hedgehog 1 plays just as flawlessly as the Mega Drive version it's taken from. A digital d-pad is used to run, spin and jump Sonic around each of the levels and the response has to be played to be believed. A major flaw for almost every mobile port has b…
