War Twat
Subtle, it must be said, is NOT a word that springs to mind when describing Oddbob.
Neither are quiet, sane, Southern or, thankfully, idle. For inbetwixt the fiddling and the rearranging of the site and forums, administering of various threads, keeping a healthy chat-room presence and having a life outside of Retro-Remakes Towers, Bob has chucked together enough code, graphics and sound to produce one of the most discussed games in ages on the forum. The git!
Infamous/Ovine Soundtrack
Gah! I’d forget my own brain if it wasn’t screwed into place, I was meant to post this earlier in the week and wandered off bemused as usual. Ah well… as per the title, this is the soundtrack release of Infamous’ work for the nice chaps at Ovine By Design.
Harrier Attack: The Second Sortie
I still find it quite odd to note that to date we’ve still not seen a decent remake of the seminal (if you’re me) Durell classic Harrier Attack. To be truthful, it’s a bit of a mystery as to why - the original game was hardly a complex beast and yet no, there’s still scant in the way of loving for the game.
Nicky Boom (PSP)
STOP. Prequel time! Yes, I was so busy newsing Nicky II that I didn’t notice that the same team have just released Nicky Boom too, almost simultaneously. Doh! Well I’m making amends now with a news post for this game too.
Nicky Boom II (PSP)
Boom boom boom, now let me hear you say wayoh… I say boom boom boom, now everybody say wayoh… etc. *cough* Here is a new port of the Amiga platform game Nicky Boom II for the PSP.
PicrossST
It’s time to dust of your Atari ST, or if you can be arsed to do that then get your emulators out for the lads, because here is a “remake” for that glorious machine and all its fans, released only a couple of days ago on May 1st. The name of the game might be familiar to DS or other Nintendo console owners but don’t be fooled, they didn’t invent this.
