Review: EverDrive 64 Pro - the Best N64 Flash Cart Just Got Better, but Don't Get Rid of Your X7 Just Yet
Incremental improvements, but is it worth $170 of your money? The legendary Krikzz continues to pump out some of the best flash carts money can buy, and he's returned to the EverDrive 64 to give it a fresh lick of paint. The previous model, the $150 EverDrive 64 X7 , is one of my most-used carts thanks to the arrival of the Analogue 3D , and I have to say I've had very few moments where I felt the X7 was missing any features – so the introduction of the EverDrive 64 Pro had me somewhat sceptical at first.

Glitch Boy: New Emulator and Chiptune Synth Allows Users to 'Corrupt' NES Games in Real Time
Brings a whole new meaning to 'Datamoshing'. This is certainly something a little different from the usual emulation devices featured here on Time Extension.

Games are loaded to the Glitch Boy via SD Card, and then output to a monitor or display.

Feature: The Story Of Ecstatica, The Groundbreaking Survival Horror With Plenty Of Balls
An 18-rated ellipsoid classic. Cast your mind back to the video game landscape of the early '90s, and 2D remains king. Granted, 3D gaming was on the rise thanks to titles such as Star Fox , Alone in the Dark , Virtua Racing and Doom , but with the wave of 32-bit consoles yet to materialise, the industry was at an odd crossroads; CD-ROM tech had mostly been used for FMV and pre-rendered titles like The 7th Guest , Night Trap and Myst —games which promised an immersive, cinematic experience yet lacked a deep and meaningful degree of interaction. Into this landscape, a tiny two-man UK studio released a game which offered an innovative way to represent characters in 3D whilst maintaining a film-like level of storytelling and player agency, making it far more suitable for the name "interactive movie" than any of the FMV pretenders of the 1990s; it also joins Alone in the Dark as a pre- Resident Evil example of a what would eventually be known as "survival horror". That game was 1994's Ecstatica , developed by Andrew Spencer (of Andrew Spencer Studios) and Alain Maindron. Read the full article on timeextension.com
