Oct 22, 2008

Pretend God of War hasn’t happened. Pretend you’ve never heard of Devil May Cry – this has the bonus side effect that you can squint at the box all over again, and think: “Don’t they mean Devil May Care?” for the first time, just like you did in 2001. Now go back further, to 1989, and pretend you’re enjoying Golden Axe for the first time. Now come back, and try to make sense of Beast Rider. ...

Riding off into the sunset on a long-armed ogre-thing

May 16, 2008

At Sega’s gamer’s day soiree on Wednesday we got to see a whole slew of games in rapid succession, sometimes getting a hands-on, and sometimes just sitting back and watching someone else play (always the best way to experience a game - that was sarcasm, by the way).

Golden Axe PS3: First details

Next-gen update shifts focus to free-roaming dragon riding, with a sprinkling of combat

Nov 27, 2007

Nov 27, 2007 The first details on Sega and Secret Level's long announced Golden Axe update have been revealed in the latest issue of PSM3. If you're looking for a straight update you're probably going to be disappointed, because the classic bruiser has been pretty much completely re-imagined in the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 update. First off, you now play as one Amazonian hero, the scantily clad Tyris Flare, instead of the original game's trio of fantasy stereotypes. Gillus the dwarf and Ax ... » Read Full Golden Axe: Beast Rider preview
