The Perpetuation of Pages

Posted on April 11th, 2004 by Kenny Sutherland

After a long period of time with no maintenance, the Article Archives and the Staff page have received much needed updates. Get to know the members of the Lost Levels crew, or catch up on those past articles that you missed the first time around.

There are more articles waiting around the bend, so don’t go anywhere. Unless you need to go get some nachos, or a drink. Maybe a handful of candy. Grab me something while you’re up, too.

Spotlight: Sonic X-Treme

Posted on April 1st, 2004 by Frank Cifaldi

Jonathan Allen, a new writer on our staff, has written up a very lengthy and detailed history of Sonic X-Treme for the Saturn, with the help of producer Mike Wallis. It’s an epic tale of rivalry, jealousy, and exhaustive dedication.

Check out the article here, along with an unabridged timeline provided to us by Wallis himself.

Special thanks to “PACHUKA” of Sonic Cult for providing some much-needed clarification and images.
