It’s getting hot in here…

…so take off all your clothes… Umm, on second thoughts, let’s play some remakes instead shall we?
Good to be back in news posting mode. Here is a trio of goodness to make you forget about the weather for a little while.
To try and stop the sun and heat killing you through your face, why not take a trip to the land of snow and ice and hypnotise yourself with cool thoughts while playing the new update of Push Push Penguin by Tomaz of RetroSpec. This delicious new version includes on-line high scores so now you can take on the whole world with your pushing skills.
It’s good to see a game from one of our previous competitions getting a nice update like that, showing that not all of them were totally abandoned after the closing date.
Everyone has heard the following cliché, but it is as true today as it was when I was a young whipper snapper. In space no one can make ice cream. A sad fact indeed, but luckily space is pretty cold already so a lack of Rocky Road can be excused. If the icecaps of our previous game were not cold enough for you then perhaps the latest version of Oolite, a create and constantly improving remake of Elite, will hit the spot.
Just like ice cream this remake is available in several flavours, so whether you are a Windows user, a Linux user, or a Mac user you will be able to take a Cobra III out joyriding through the galaxy.
Have you ever played Sentinel? If not why not? If you have nadir what all the fuss is about over this game, or if you are a big fan, then you must go and download Zenith by John Valentine.
I’m doing a little dance around the room at this very moment because someone has finally answered my prayers and done a hardware accelerated remake of this classic game. If this isn’t a cool game to play in this hot weather then I don’t know what is.
Almost midnight here and the keys on my keyboard are melting into gooey blobs, so I better wrap this up for now.
