Kai Review: Onechanbara

Dubious hack and slasher that combines all-out action with sketchy perversion. More enjoyable and interesting than you might expect though with a decent fighting system and lashings of comedy gore. Somehow manages to be a lot of fun despite all the backtracking and awful bosses.

Kai Review: Sega Mega Drive Ultimate Collection (360)

A sizeable collection of old Mega Drive games given a barebones treatment with no real graphical upgrades and absolutely no online functionality whatsoever. Overall the games range from great (Comix Zone) to gash (Flicky) although the stars of the show are the coin-ops Shinobi and Alien Syndrome. Plenty of Sonic and Ecco for those who picked the less good option in the biggest 16-bit war (or those of you who want an easy thousand gamerscore).

Some title screens of old Sega shite.
