The IGS PolyGame Master (PGM) core is progressing rapidly on MiSTer FPGA, with an impressive number of games already reaching playable status in the latest alpha release. First introduced by IGS in the late 1990s, the PGM arcade platform became known for its powerful 2D hardware, delivering stunning sprite animation, detailed artwork, and some of the best arcade action games of its era.
The platform is home to a fantastic library of titles including Demon Front, Knights of Valour, Knights of Valour 2, Martial Masters, The Gladiator, The Killing Blade, DoDonPachi II: Bee Storm, and DoDonPachi Dai-Ou-Jou. These games span beat 'em ups, fighting games, and shoot 'em ups, showcasing the versatility and quality of the PGM hardware.
With new milestones being reached regularly, the latest alpha builds provide an exciting opportunity to explore one of arcade gaming's most underrated platforms. As compatibility continues to improve and more games become playable, the PGM core is quickly becoming one of the most exciting additions to the MiSTer FPGA ecosystem.

@RomeGoLARGE Xbox has always just been a branch of Windows PC and Direct X
We have Xbox on PC app which offers Xbox UI and combined launcher
Windows PC is a bigger platform than Xbox too
@code_wizard_uk@rhayadercompute It's all soft sprite based which is why it's slow. The C64 1mhz 6510 was it's Achilles heel
The ZX Spectrum CPU ran at 4mhz
@rhayadercompute At one point sadly yes. It always was disappointing compared to the Amiga and it always gave 16bit Amstrad CPC vibes which is not good either
@TheEggman64 How can it be Exclusive when Xbox is console and Windows PC ?
We have Xbox on PC with a Xbox mode which enables a console like UI
Xbox has always been a branch of Windows PC
@Yeltnerb1@MizoChris AMD hasn't been the leader since the ATI days and the more even 50/50 split of the consumer GPU market they had. They pissed away by releasing poor architecture over and over
Now Nvidia has around 94% of the market and it's a lost cause
@MizoChris The architecture will be used for the next consoles first
rDNA started as a semi custom contract for Sony to be used in the PS5
AMD does better business through semi custom than PC consumer and when Nvidia has 94% of the market it's a lost cause anyway
