BlastEm is a Sega Genesis emulator primarily for the Linux operating system that also supports OSX and Windows. BlastEm aims for cycle accuracy, and for lower system requirements than Exodus. Commercial game compatibility is close to, but not quite at 100%. Titan's Overdrive 2 demo runs with near perfection, a first for any emulator. The original Overdrive demo runs perfectly which only Genesis Plus GX can also claim. It is the only emulator other than Exodus that can properly display direct color DMA demos and to pass all of the tests in Nemesis' VDP FIFO Testing ROM.
