October 4, 2013 By ausretrogamer

What is it with me and Guile. I never use him as my fighting character, and yet, I find the dude intriguing. Here are some cool artwork depicting his killer move – the Sonic Boom.

Care for some Sonic The Hedgehog Boom to start with?

Land of ZOM: The Free Zombie MMO

October 2, 2013 By ausretrogamer

LoZ

There is quite a bit of buzz around for Land of ZOM. This indie game (from Netikan Productions) has been in development for over three years. It’s anticipation is killing us non-partially deceased human beings.

Before you start complaining, this game will be free! One particular cool trait of Land of ZOM is its mixed platform world experience – “We believe that all players should be entitled to exactly the same experience, no matter what device they choose to use” – so regardless of your platform, the experience will be identical whether you are playing the game on Android, iOS, Windows, Linux or OS X! The development of this free-to-play Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) game will be closely watched.

Event: Portland Retro Gaming Expo

October 1, 2013 By ausretrogamer

PRGE

Got any plans this coming weekend? Careful how you respond, as there is only one answer – you will be at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo [PRGE]!

The PRGE is on from October 5 to 6 at the Oregon Convention Centre. With its sister expo in Seattle, these are the premier retro gaming events that you need to attend. There are many highlights that have been announced for PRGE, but I am most excited about AtariAge debuting several homebrew games for the Atari 2600 and 7800!

If attending the expo wasn’t enough, if you buy your ticket(s) before October 1, you can win your very own Atari Asteroids Deluxe cocktail-style arcade machine. Go on, get going!

September 27, 2013 By ausretrogamer

We shuddered when we saw what had become of Ryu, Zangief and Guile in the first part of Street Fighter: Where Are They Now.

Prepare yourself for part 2, as Arman Akopian (aka: I-GUYJIN-I) shows us exactly what Cyber Vega and Chun-Li have been up to and where Fei Long has been for the last three years.
