Thank you very much for your continued support of THE PRIMALS.
As announced earlier today, we are deeply saddened to share the news of the sudden passing of bassist Eikichi Iwai.
Having witnessed his truly unforgettable performance on stage at the recent FINAL FANTASY XIV Fan Festival in Japan, the sudden news of his passing has come as a profound shock. The members of THE PRIMALS and the entire FFXIV Development and Operations teams are overcome with deep sorrow.
As we reflect on all that Eikichi-san has left behind, our thoughts are with him, and we offer our heartfelt condolences.

The GTA VI box has the disk holder they didn’t even bother removing it, what a joke.

How it Started | How it's Going
Literally the same Halo cutscene on Dreamcast and the one on the right runs better. The port is less than 4 weeks old.

It all started when one of our senior producers discovered a vault with thousands of archival master tapes at EA.
From digitizing 2,500 hours of lost footage to collaborating with community modders, read the full story behind the latest wave of EA Classics, including restorations for Wing Commander and Road Rash.

After 25 years, the original Xbox's last hidden ROM has finally been dumped: the CPU's microcode!
This has been a goal of mine for over 6 years, and I've worked on it off and on ever since.
Over the last couple of weeks, while building inventory and shipping orders, I've also been running hardware tests 24/7. This poor Xbox has rebooted over 50,000 times in those two weeks alone.
And it finally paid off.
The dump covers the entire 4,096-line microcode address space. The ROM itself occupies 3,200 of those lines, roughly 12 KB of microcode.
I can't overstate how huge this feels. After all these years, I finally have it.
A full write-up is coming next year!

Did anyone want MULTIPLAYER on Halo: Dreamcast Evolved? She's a comin'! Here's 8 minutes of footage from MULTIPLAYER, OUTPOST FIREFIGHT, and CAMPAIGN!
Play the way YOU want to play! Standard DC pad, mouse+keyboard, and even modern controller support (requires adapter) with two joysticks. Remap the controls up to 2 keys/buttons per action. Play your way!
A lot of you have asked for ammo count on the VMU, so not only will it show you ammo for every weapon you have equipped, it also shows your entire loadout: the weapon you have on your back AND both grenades. No need to swap between weapons or grenades to find out, just look down at your controller for a moment to check!
Two people have joined the project to wire up network play. The plan is three ways to find a match: local LAN, Dreamcast to Dreamcast over direct IP address (you can save these as "friends" to easily connect later), and crossplay.
Meanwhile the lobby itself is in: seven game types (Slayer, Team Slayer, King of the Hill, Crazy King, Capture the Flag, Oddball, Race), Spartan customisation, and bots to shoot at while the netcode lands.
With DC-to-DC IP and LAN, the game will forever be playable online and not tied to requiring lobby servers to preserve our slice of Dreamcast online gaming history. Two networking folks have joined the team to help wire up crossplay between PC and Dreamcast (optional), through BBA or even... if you dare... DreamPi.
Also featuring the Dreamcast-first exclusive mode, OUTPOST FIREFIGHT, where you create your player and run through through contracts in a story-based firefight mode to build your base, earn your Mjolnir Mark V and VI through story, and experience the first wave of Spartan volunteers post-Halo 3.
And of course, the ENTIRE Halo: Combat Evolved campaign right here on Sega Dreamcast.

20 years later and the 2nd version of the PlayStation 3 Store is still the best iteration in its history
I'm still annoyed by that October 2012 refresh that made everything so much more cumbersome to navigate
