Plus/4 World fights back ;-)
Posted by MIK on 2002-01-01
2000 and 2 should bring the best out of C16/Plus4 interests with the long awaited merge of C16/Plus4 ClassiX and Csabo's Plus4 DataBase. Yep it's under way, but as always there is much work to do. Csabo will take the C16/Plus4 web scene into a new light meaning more of everything with his new PHP based site under consruction right now! Along with my help and support it's gonna rock like no other ever created for the 264 series! More on this later in the year.


More P.O.D Please!
Posted by MIK on 2002-01-01
Yes many of you will remember Shaun Southern's classic shooter called Proof of Destruction or P.O.D. Released back in 1986 it was to see a second coming on the Sega's Megadrive console in 1993! As you may know Shaun was working for Magnetic Fields (former Mr Chip Software) and at the start of the 90's he was the brain child behind the all time classic Lotus games from Gremlin Graphics Software (Amiga Versions). Their final and greatest installment was Lotus3 for the Amiga, not only was the game wicked but so was the awesome music! Well as you can guess Lotus3 was ported onto the Sega Megadrive but this time it was called Louts2 because having the orginal Amiga version of Lotus2 named as Lotus Turbo Challenge on MD it did'nt leave the games name many options ;-)

Unless you were a keen Megadrive fan many of you wont know about Lotus2's hidden game of P.O.D! If you waited for the High Scores screens to pop up while the demo was running they almost gave the whole secret away with the wording of "TO PLAY THE HIDDEN GAME ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TYPE THE TOP SECRET PASSWORD POD PLEASE". In short all you have to do is enter your name in as "POD_PLEASE" and start a new game!

Sad as it many seem I cant offer the game as a download because it's copyrighted to Electronic Arts who released the Megadrive version. But saying that it doesn't take long to search for it in Google ;-) So if your after a fresh look at the C16/Plus4 Classic P.O.D then find a copy of Lotus2 for the Megadrive and see what you make of it! I must confess though the original still rulez :-) Oh yeah, before I go into hidding again I'd like to wish you all a Happy New Year!
