I would have liked a new VF reveal alongside those games, but right now I'm just glad we're getting new Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio, Shinobi, Golden Axe and Streets of Rage titles, especially the last two.
It wasn't even that long ago we got SoR4 (which I loved btw) but it still feels nice seeing the series staying active, and a new GA is something that I have been wanting to see for a long time, almost as long as with VF.
Seriously though, the original announcement of the new Earthworm Jim game back then was the first time in my life I heard about this laughable system, which would have still been doomed to fail even if it got released.
The fact that they believe a mobile app will save it now is just sad.
One of the reasons I love The Fallen Star is because, unlike the majority of Sonic fan games out there, the game use an 'original' sprite model design for the main character(s), and such things are always a plus in my book. It also helps that the gameplay is very enjoyable as well. Can't wait to try out this upcoming beauty as well.
Cool, will be my first time playing the original version. I live in Europe so I only played βDevil Worldβ (the 2-player version that cut the other playable guy).
I never cared that much for famous actors in games like these. In the end I only remember the funny "meme-worthy" moments like Tim Curry in C&C: Red Alert 3 ("SSPPAACCEE!").
I remember seeing that video on Last Window's website years ago. I feelt a little sad back then on how we never got to see all the characters' actors outside of those shown in the video.

Re: Sega Resurrects The Iconic "Sega Scream" For Sonic Superstars
@Damo:
"Since then, the Sega Scream has become somewhat forgotten β until now."
Actually, as AshMcCool points out above, they already 'resurrected' the scream as recently as with atleast two Sonic Frontiers ads last year.

Re: Nightdive CEO Pitches Potential Way To Remaster More Classic Titles
I would love to see official re-releases of the NOLF games, but not like this tbh (especially since it will be a legal mess sooner or later).
Re: Flashback: Xbox Got Its Name Because The Other Suggestions Were "F**cking Appalling"
All of these 'names' are either awful, boring, or just plain generic.
Whats quite funny is that, in a way, one of them eventually got to live on in the second Xbox console: "TSO (Three, Six, Zero)".
