The Next Racing Game From Play Mechanix & Raw Thrills: MotoGP
Back when I first learned about the development of Jurassic Park Arcade, I also heard that Raw Thrills Inc. was working on a new motorcycle racing game. Little was said about it apart from “everything is licensed – the game, the tracks, the racers, and the bikes.” I was left to guess what that »

For today’s newsbag, I’m going to use it to wrap up Amusement Expo 2015 which took place earlier this week in Las Vegas, NV.

The Search For Bouncer Arcade
One thing that pops-up with arcade gaming are cases of prototypes that never “see the light of day” on the wide market. This has happened various times over the years, even in recent times with games like Robo Restle, Block People, or K.O. Drive. Often these show up on some location tests and maybe »
