Sega is joining in on the nostalgia train, and this September will be releasing a mini Sega Genesis with 40 games and cost $80. There is a partial list over at Polygon, tho my only real concern is there is already a pretty substantial collection on the Xbox, Sony, and Switch. Many of the games in this mini already exist on there, so I am hard pressed to believe they will find 40 games warranting that price tag. It will be interesting to see tho, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Romero Games And Paradox Interactive Team Up
Reported by Variety and announced on Twitter by Brenda Romero, Romero Games (Gunman Taco Truck and Dangerous Dave in the Deserted Pirate’s Hideout) for mobile. Not much has been said, except that more will be announced at E3 this year and it is a strategy game of some sort. Don’t let the name Romero fool you tho, it is a pretty popular last name and there is no relation with the famed director George A Romero so chances are it is not a horror-themed game despite some speculation I have seen in some forums. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Playstation To Allow Returns On Preorders, Provided You Don’t Download It.
As reported by TechRadar Sony will now be allowing returns of preorders with a few rules of course. First, you can’t download it, and yes that includes pre-loading the game. However, this is good until launch if you ordered more than 14 days before launch. There is more to it and the TechRadar link provides more details, but those are the big points you need to know, most notably the don’t download it part. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Master Eraqus in Kingdom Hearts 3. Now, Mark Hamill will be Chucky in the new Child’s Play. Enjoy the video, an may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Elder Scrolls 6 and Starfield Won’t be at E3
As reported by Gamespot Bethesda has already confirmed they will hold a conference at E3 but at Pax East said they will not be showing The Elder Scrolls 6 or Starfield. Todd Howard also said the tech they will be using in Starfield and TES6 will be seen first in Starfield then in TES6, if there was any doubt of the order of release before that should really put an end to it. Either way, we have a long wait and patience will really be a virtue. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Kerbal Enhanced Edition, History and Parts Pack DLC
At long last, a long needed DLC and update for the console version of Kerbal Space Program. The History and Parts Pack is basically the making history pack for the PC minus the mission builder and with the extra Mun launch pad.
The extra parts are pretty nice, and I like the ability to change the color of many of the parts. The cost of $9.99 isn’t too bad either tho admittedly it really is for people that truly love the game. I can’t see people that only kind of enjoy the game feeling the price is worth it for the parts and some color swaps along with some new launch sites that really don’t change the way you play with one exception.
The Mun launch is essentially the games super easy mode in a way. See the Mun has no atmosphere and insanely low gravity. This lets you build the most minimalist rockets to enter orbit and head for wherever you want in the solar system. That isn’t to say it is easy to get to them or land and return, but it is far easier than launching from Kerbin. Not to discourage anyone from using it, how you play the game is on you. Personally, I would get to the Mun then use it as a sort of base kind of like a Mun base. Anyway, feel free to check it out and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Borderlands: Game of The Year Edition
Coming April 3rd and The unfortunate victim of some huge technical issues at PAX East we instead got to listen to people working on the game tell us a few things, for example, it will be in 4k and it moved from being 2 player co-op to 4 player split screen. Luckily you can now find all the details in the trailer on youtube (Down Below) and below that, I will include the Handsome Jack Collection update as well. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Finally, Borderlands $@!&’in 3
I think the title says it all, PAX East saw the reveal trailer for Borderlands 3, and I am excited. We saw some bad guys, Tiny Tina less tiny, found out there will be over a billion guns (Yes with a B) and at least one will have legs. Don’t believe me, watch the trailer below and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Streets Of Rage 4 Teases New Characters
Finally a new gameplay trailer for Streets of Rage 4, and it is a good one tho it is a bit short. At the end tho you can see Axel and Blaze who were also in the trailer and the outline of two unknown characters. Who they are and what their roles will be are obviously quite unknown, as is much else about the game. I do however really appreciate that the graphics and sound have that old school feel but look quite updated and I can’t wait to get my hands on it. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Mortal Kombat 11 Characters
Recently new MK11 characters have been revealed and admittedly I am quite excited for two of them. One is a personal favorite of mine, Noob Saibot that I have been using since he first became a playable character. Of course, the other character I am excited for is the first confirmed DLC character Shang Tsung. Why some may ask am I excited for the return of the original bad guy from the MK universe? Well, he is voiced this time by the Shang Tsung from the first move, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, and that to me is worth being excited about since when I think Shang Tsung I think of Tagawa. Kotal Khan was also announced but admittedly I don’t know of anyone that was excited by that one. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
