Fusion Retro Books has launched a brand-new SEGA magazine, namely SEGA Force Mega. Coming in at 60 pages in the popular A5 format, it’s a new companion to CRASH, ZZAP! 64, ZZAP! Amiga, Fusion, and Amtix! CPC magazines. I’ve purchased the launch issue – here’s what you can expect.
Firstly, there’s a wonderful Trevor Storey cover that would be great as an A3 poster at some point – perhaps it could be a freebie when subscriptions ultimately open up in the future, hint hint! 🙂
The magazine is split into several sections to cater for every console generation – Firstly there’s news on the remakes that SEGA announced at the recent Game Awards, a look at the Model 1 board that was an arcade game-changer, and the often-overlooked Ninja Gaiden for the Game Gear. The fighting theme continues with the best beat-em-up Master System experiences, there’s a run-down of the Mega Drive’s launch titles, Dragon Force on the Saturn, and a look at the near-arcade perfect ports on the Dreamcast.
Rounding out the issue is a Super Monkey Ball feature on the Gamecube, what SEGA did after being dumped out of the console wars, a review of Sonic Superstars on modern consoles, and all the latest homebrew news and interviews, plus much, much more!
You can purchase the launch issue of SEGA Force Mega directly from the Fusion Retro Books website for £4.99. There is also a bundle with a SEGA Force Mega mug for £16.
