For those of you who happen to be arcade bums like myself back in the 1980s and 1990s, where we could have easily paid rent for a permanent residence inside an arcade with the amount of quarters we spent, will be happy to know that the classic Zaxxon arcade game will be time traveling from the past and arriving on our phones and tablets soon as Zaxxon Escape, all thanks to Sega who have decided to resurrect the franchise.
Rovio, once known solely for their Angry Birds games which involved slinging birds into pigs (or in one case, cages), has now diversified its gaming portfolio.

Ratrod Studios, the developers behind the successful Drift Mania Championship, have produced a sequel and added the number 2 to their original game. The game promises to deliver the ultimate drift experience with its highly addictive gameplay and next generation graphics.
