Bit 4 Byte - Sunday, July 27, 2006

     To all of the students out there and professors with classes to teach, perhaps this phrase is their least favorite - "Summer break is almost over." The staff of Die-Hard Gamer these last two weeks took what amounted to an impromptu vacation with their friends and family before the summer break is officially over.

     With the break winding down, Die-Hard Gamer will be going through a few changes this late summer/early fall since a great number of our staff is either students or teachers in their "other" lives, and the time that we've enjoyed off to produce our weekly updates is quickly evaporating. Our plan at this time is to change the "current issue" page into monthly updates instead of weekly updates, however, that doesn't mean we will only update once a month. Rather, we are going to be adding updates to the current issue as we finish them, and then with the start of each new month, we'll begin a new issue basically. This change will more or less allow us to keep a healthy number of updates on the current issue page because some weeks there just wouldn't be enough time in the week to reach our usual 4+ updates.

     Our first update with this new system will likely occur later today or tomorrow with an exclusive look at some of the new mini games that will be included in the GOAT Games Dreamcast title due out later this year. From there on we will continue to have a healthy number of updates include more looks at some upcoming new Dreamcast games, as well as a look at some import, retro, and current-generation news and reviews.

     Update (8/1/06): We're unfortunately going to have to take a slightly longer hiatus before we can get back to regular updates. We do, however, have two, possibly three articles coming in the next week/week and a half that will be of very special interest to any Dreamcast owner. One article in particular we are very excited about since it will give a look into quite possibly one of the best independently Dreamcast titles yet. More TBA...

Top 10 Best Fighters
Street Fighter 2
1. Street Fighter 2 ‘Turbo: Hyper Fighting

5. Street Fighter 3: Third Strike
6. Soul Calibur

   “Despite being ancient compared to some of the newer competition on this list, Street Fighter 2 is one of the few truly perfect games for its time. Every other game on this list borrows so heavily and owes so much to Street Fighter 2 that Capcom should have received royalties from them.”

   “Arguably Criticom may not actually be the worst game on this list, but it is the only game I can remember picking up at a Toys R Us clearance for $10 and then trading it in the next day to an EB Games for the $1 they offered me. I felt like I ripped them off.”

   "It’s not to say that the Wii is going to win the next-generation console race – it may not even place second – but the creative and fun new ways that the Wii allowed us to play games makes this the only of the three new consoles we won’t have any second thoughts about picking up on day one."
