Burning Rangers gets lost 2P Co-Op mode restored with downloadable patch

Did you know that Burning Rangers (1998) was planned to have a two-player co-op mode during development? This was shown in early previews and was found in some prototype builds of the game, but no such mode exists in the final retail release. Turns out that the code for the co-op mode was left within the game’s data, so dedicated Sega Saturn reverse engineer Bo Bayles has restored that co-op mode with a special patch. You can download the patch and try it out with your own image file of Burning Rangers. (Which I trust you obtained legally from a copy you own, which you may or may not have paid hundreds of dollars for, but that’s not my place to judge.)

Now then, to the next phase and to the next stage. Come with me past the break for the patch download and more info.

Rumor: Bayonetta 2 to feature co-op?


Here is another rumor out of the blue. We don’t even know for sure if there will be a Bayonetta 2, but infamous Hip Hop Gamer has already pronounced it will have a co-op mode called “Twin Sisters”. This rumor will most likely turn out to be false.

Not only has HHG ran a ton of rumors, most of them have turned out to be false. Some have come true, but if you throw enough darts, you’re bound to hit something. Last big SEGA rumor of his  said that SEGA would announce a new Shinobi game running on the Bayonetta engine. Not only that, the game was going to be announced in 2010. With TGS already behind us, we can basically dismiss this.
