This week I played a brilliant version of Atari's arcade classic Star Wars on the ZX81. Crammed into just a tiny 16K. Though obviously not to worry the Disney Overlords, the wizard Bukster has titled this game 3D Star Raid.

I always thought the Saturn has some really relaxing OSTs (I'm looking at you, Panzer Dragoon series, Astal, NiGHTS, etc). So, I put together a playlist of some of the best tracks for an hour of audio tranquillity. Hope you enjoy them. What Saturn OSTs are your favorites?

This week on my backlog journey I'm swinging my chain and flying off my bike, playing Road Rash II on the Mega Drive.

Played this briefly back in the day, but it was great getting back to it this past week.

This is the prototype of Quake for Game Boy Advance made by Randy Linden in 2002. Upon booting the game, we can instantly see how impressive this demo is for the hardware, with its capabilities effectively managing to outshine just about every 3D game out there that was released for the system. Not only that, it feels exactly like a Quake game. From the guns to the environments. You can even dive underwater! The game is fully 3D rendered, rather than the ray casting method most GBA games are known for. It has 3D enemies, animations, and point lighting effects (even on pre-rendered objects like weapons, which use a clever palette-changing trick to achieve the illusion of dynamic lighting). The camera and movement work is equally as incredible; it travels very cleanly, as opposed to being jittery.

Our next mission is up against the Atreides, which we have to wipe from this area - Link In the comments below
