The last time I dived headfirst into the Bomberman series was with the Sega Saturn back in the late 90s. My friend, Shane Bettenhausen, had the imported version for the Saturn and the capabilities of playing 10-players at once thanks to a multi-tap controller port.

Motorsports, in its purest form, is just racing time and going as fast as you possibly can. Running as hard as you can for the length you need to run. All forms. Formula 1, NASCAR, hell, even racing on the playground at school. Racing is something that gets into you, and you can’t let go. I remember arcade racing games at our local burger joint and movie theater as a kid were the ones I always wan...[Read More]
