SEGA boss wants to revive the SEGA spirit of the 80s and 90s







Quote
Speaking to The Game Business Mr. Utsumi said he wants SEGA to cover all bases going forward and have software for everyone, “I’d really like to revive that SEGA spirit. Sometime around 2000, even around the 1980s, we were regarded as a very cultural company. If you compare it to the music industry, I believe SEGA brings rock and roll. In the arcade business, we really had a rock and roll mindset and trying to provide new stuff. So nowadays, we want Sega to always be trying something different, while ..."

Shenmue is on 10 Best Crunchyroll Original Anime, Ranked Screenrant







Quote
Based on the cult classic Sega game series, Shenmue: The Animation follows teenage martial artist Ryo Hazuki as he investigates his father's murder and uncovers a world of crime and mysticism. Despite its condensed runtime, the series remains faithful to the game’s tone and world-building, offering longtime fans a sense of narrative closure they never got from the games.
While the animation and pacing have received mixed reviews, Shenmue succeeds in capturing the meditative spirit of the source material. Ryo's quiet determination and methodical approach to problem-solving feel refreshing in a genre typically driven by hyperactive action. It is a unique journey that respects its roots while  ..

26 years ago today, the game engine M.U.G.E.N was originally released on PC via a public beta (Version 9X.07.27 Beta).









Quote
M.U.G.E.N, designed by Elecbyte, is a 2D fighting game engine that is enables you to create commercial-quality fighting games. Almost everything can be customized, from individual characters to stages, as well as the look and feel of the game.
The majority of content created for M.U.G.E.N tend to be distributed as individual characters, stages or motifs. Assembling a game is as simple as downloading the content of your choice, and configuring M.U.G.E.N to know about it.
M.U.G.E.N is designed to be used by people with little or no programming experience, but with some artistic talent and patience to learn. Of course, having some programming background does give you a bit of a headstart. However, if you are just looking to play with downloaded content, all you need to know is how to unzip files and edit a text file.
