  • Who Am I?

     

    Yo! My name is Robbie. Join me as I fumble through this blog thing and rattle on about games and stuff that I like!

    I don’t feel like there are many gamers out there with my kind of tastes – at least it feels that way most of the time – so I’m starting this page in hopes of finding others out there, who like me, have strange kinda tastes.

    This is going to be interesting.

    So, if you’ve somehow found yourself here, then I hope you manage to dig A Certain Kind of Gamer.

Tänzer: NEW Mega Drive Game Kickstarter + More NEW Games For SEGA’s 16-Bit Wonder !!!

May 29, 2018 · by akumajobelmont

Capture

It seems we can’t go a month or two without a new Mega Drive/Genesis game being announced via a Kickstarter campaign. Which is crazy. Because it’s 2018. I’m not one to look a gift-horse in the mouth though – I adore my SEGA Mega Drive, perhaps more now than I ever did back in the day, and I’ll take whatever I can get.

Provided it looks promising enough.

I woke up the other morning, and did my usual thing.

Morning coffee. My email. My forums. Indie Retro News.

Right there at the top of the page was news of a new Mega Drive Kickstarter for a game called Tänzer. Check out this trailer:

REDBOOK ROTATION 1 – Two SEGA Saturn Games That Double As Awesome Music CDs.

February 6, 2018 · by akumajobelmont

Header

NOTE: This will be a regular type of post. Being A Certain Kind of Gamer, I dig the more nerdy sides of things sometimes, like video game music. Redbook Audio is one of my most favourite things in the world, and I hope to bring you guys and gals music that you may not have heard of otherwise. Being video game music, a lot of it will actually sound like video game music, so yeah. I hope you dig these posts!

Kids do the damnedest things, don’t they? Especially the nerdy ones. When I discovered the sound-test as a youngster, I made it my mission to try to get the cleanest recordings possible of my favourite game music tracks. I started with a Microphone pointed at the speaker of my TV-Set, then moved on to line-in recordings feeding into my karaoke machine. It was when I got my Mega CD though, that things became a lot more interesting!

CD’s and Games! More levels! More animation! FMV!

Bugger that!

The best thing that ever came from games and CD’s finding each other was Redbook Audio. No longer was a soundtrack limited to a few channels/samples – the only limits musicians faced were their audio setup! Storing CD Quality game audio on a disc blew my mind. Of course, it’s not the best thing ever, but for me, it’s close!
