The memory of the bluetooth speccy fiasco is still a bit raw, isnt it a little too soon to try a cashgrab from the same crowd?

I was a massive Spectrum fan back into day. Do hope they manage to release something good that works great at some point for all of us in our forties now.Comment

I still have my entire speccy collection already but just having it all there would be wonderful
Hope it comes off I really do.Comment

There was an article on the Guardian website about this yesterday, it's interesting for sure for someone like me who grew up with it but I'm still on the fence though until someone gets their hands on one.

I managed to get one of the first batch this morning. It's a surprise they stuck with composite output although I suppose that's a minor upgrade over RF. Would have been interesting to see something like the Hdmyboy crew are doing.Comment

A full blown Namco ridge would make my dayComment

I'm not convinced I want a other Namco Ridge Racer after 6-7 and Vita. Ugh.Comment

Irreverent run-and-gun game Glorious Leader! has been pulled from Kickstarter following an alleged hack "inspired by the attack on Sony"...
First appearing on Kickstarter last month, Glorious Leader! was a side-scrolling shooter in the vein of Contra or the rather more obscure arcade title Sly Spy: Secret Agent.
The twist was that you played a slightly grotesque caricature of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un as he blasted his way through wave after wave of capitalist forces. One level saw the leader ride a unicorn, while another had him charge across the ocean on the back of a narwhal.
It seems that someone, somewhere didn't see the funny side of.Glorious Leader!, however. The team behind it, Moneyhorse Games, has stated that it was the victim of a hack over the Christmas break, which it says has "destroyed data pertaining to Glorious Leader! and other projects we had in development."
"The timing couldn't have been worse," Moneyhorse's Kickstarter update continued, "as it hampered our ability to attend to the Kickstarter project."
As a result, Moneyhorse has pulled Glorious Leader!.from Kickstarter, and the future of the game now seems uncertain:
"This is not the first time we have been targeted because of Glorious Leader! Between the hacking and other threats, we think it is time to reevaluate our commitment to Glorious Leader! We thank our fans and supporters, and we are sorry to let you down."
Moneyhorse have also admitted that it "made mistakes" when it came to the Kickstarter campaign's pledge levels and rewards. Before.Glorious Leader! was pulled, it amassed $16,816 of its $55,000 target. The studio also said elsewhere that it had "no reason" to believe that the hack had any direct connection to North Korea, but was instead "inspired by the attack on Sony."
Whoever the culprit was, the hack appears to have brought a much-publicised game (it's appeared on Fox News and in The Guardian) to a premature end. A pity, because the poster was spectacular:

RR Vita is crap but compared to Unbounded, I'd happily play 6 and 7 over and over again.Originally posted by nakamura View PostComment

"The future of video games: the fastest, bloodiest, deadliest, most adjective-abusing, action-packed first-person shooter of 1996. Auto-generating levels of pure mayhem constantly change up the carnage."The future of 3D gaming is in your hands. Are you ready to push the limits of computer-generated realism and hardcore scifi action to a new level that threatens the very existence of humanity?*Good. Humanity is not worthy of STRAFE?:
? BILLIONS of level possibilities with a unique level generated on every load
? OCULUS RIFT compatibility - put yourself inside 100% virtualized "real" environments
? Randomized enemies, monster closets and hidden secrets surprise at every turn
? ?BER-GORE? Tech for ludicrously persistent gibs
? Lifelike digital gravity
? BLAZING fast gameplay and responsive controls
? Realtime first person upright biped simulation
? Weapon upgrades and power-ups that?ll change your play style
? Unsigned 32 bit colors!
? Colored lighting!
? Ultra large resolutions with a unique 16:9* screen ratio (*only in 2d mode)
? Multi dimensional polygonal meshes derived from over a thousand unique vertices
? STRAFE?!
It?s your yearly scrapping mission, but this year is different. Your humble scout ship has been recruited to join the massive spacecraft ICARUS. They plan to head to far edge of the galaxy, to a remote sector where other scrappers have not yet dared to venture.
The rewards could be unimaginable. But so are the risks. It may be unexplored space, but it?s a gamble you know you must take.
You lost.
You return from a run empty handed, but worse, ICARUS is no where to be found. You check your coordinates. You try the coms. No answer from your comrades on ICARUS. Yet their teleporter appears in-range and responsive.
So you grab a gun ?just in case? and teleport onto ICARUS. What could go wrong?
Everything goes wrong. This is STRAFE?. Prepare for hours of uninterrupted chaos that won?t stop for storylines or anything short of a melted CPU.***
