Blast Chamber — A 32-bit Gem Ready To Explode into New Life

<p>There are few niche and utterly forgotten 32-bit games dearer to my heart than the one I&rsquo;m going to talk about today. But first, before I gush, let&rsquo;s take a look at the amazing cover.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:694/0*rJ9Sl-sYbT4inyzU.jpg" style="height:869px; width:555px" /></p> <p>I wonder who they got to stand there clad in this armour?</p> <h1>BOOM, BABY!</h1> <p>Blast Chamber was released in 1996 for the PlayStation and Saturn, developed by Attention to Detail and published by Activision. A demo for a DOS and Windows version did get released but not the actual game.</p> <p>So, what exactly is the concept behind Blast Chamber? Well, it&rsquo;s the year 2096, baby, and having a bomb strapped to you is a sport. So claims the back of the box right off the bat, so you&rsquo;re already pretty aware this is going to be future sports shenanigans. And it&rsquo;s exactly as it says on the tin. This is one of those crapsack futures where the populace craves bloodsports to help them forget their squalid lives. And Blast Chamber is the hottest sport of the late 21st century.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@betweenthescanlines/blast-chamber-a-32-bit-gem-ready-to-explode-into-new-life-e367de548294"><strong>Learn More</strong></a></p>
