Beats of Rage Collection Volume 2 Released
Posted by curt_grymala At 13:31

After some unexpected delays, DCEvolution.net finally brings you the ultimate Beats of Rage collection, featuring some of the finest mods the BoR world has to offer:
Beats of Rage Remix, Hatchet Ninjaz, Hyper Final Fight 1 & 2, Alien vs Predator, Dragons of Rage, Double Dragon Extreme & Rage of the Streets - the awesome work of modders like Mr.Q, Kingherb, Vision, AxelBlazeAdam and Hokutoy - all presented on one huge disc!
We've put a lot of work into this project and added small bugfixes and extra features to almost every mod in this compilation.
The games use the BoR game engine created by Senile Team, ported to DC by Neill Corlett and re-vamped by L@ Cible. That means full rumble support and 50Hz PAL / 60Hz NTSC selection.
Enjoy playing your favorite BoR mods again or discover what you've missed! More info and our currently biggest download weighing in at an incredible 500 MBytes compressed, can be found on our Beats of Rage Collection Volume 2 page.
Please post all feedback in the DreamZone forums.

Melty Blood Petition
Posted by MetaFox At 20:56

Dreamcast Scene has started another paper petition, this time for Ecole's "Melty Blood: Act Cadenza".

Melty Blood : Act Cadenza is a NAOMI GD-ROM port of an independent fighting game for PC, based on the visual novel "Tsukihime" by Type-Moon. Watanabe Production (now French-Bread) initially produced the fighting game on their own, and then Type-Moon began to work with them after finding out about it (and liking it). The arcade version was ported by Ecole with the assistance of French-Bread and the input of Type-Moon (for stories, character presentation, and so on).

Dreamcast Scene has had successful petitions in the past, using the method of printing and filling out a petition sheet and mailing it to Dreamcast Scene (which then sends the collected petitions to the company). Border Down and Shikigami no Shiro 2 were two games that were released as a result of the paper petitions.

The Melty Blood petition can be found here.
