Geoshock R.I.P
 
A big thank you to Haze & Katharsis
for your work on Geoshock,
also for hosting CPS2Shock before
our move to Retrogames.
 
Geoshock will be missed my many I'm sure.

 
Some people were saying yesterday that this also means the end of CPS2Shock. I want to make it clear this is not true, CPS2Shock is independent from Geoshock.

There are two new games known to be released this year for the CPS-2 system thus proving the system is still far from dead. Both games are shooters.
 
The First is called 'Great Mahou Daisakusen' and is scheduled for release at the end of this month. The game is written by Eighting / Raizing (those people who do the wicked shooters currently emulated in RAINE). Here are a few screenshots so you can see what to look forward to.

The second is called 'Mars Matrix' and is scheduled for release in the summer. This title is being developed by the Takumi Corporation who are also the creators of Giga Wing. Here are a few screenshots to tempt you.

Our game list page has been updated again, this time to include some game artwork. Not much is there at present but hopefully with your help we can add more later.
 
We are only looking for game instruction and marquee artwork at present, not side art. Please send any of this artwork you have to the following.

HyprF0N1C pointed out an error to me in the DAT files so I have corrected this and updated them. You can now downloaded them again from here.
 
Download CLRmame Pro DAT file Version 1.77
Download ROMcenter DAT file Version 1.77

The only change is one ROM being renamed in Street Fighter Alpha / Zero (sfzu.04a to sfz.04a).
