Last Thursday, January 27 2011, I finally got to go somewhere I’ve wanted to go since I was 12 years old: Sega of America’s headquarters. There, I took part in Sega’s Conduit 2 community event, where a select group of gamers and fans got to experience the most recent build of the sequel to one of the more popular Wii first-person shooters, developed by High Voltage Studios. And w...[Read More]
In mid-December we heard rumors that a potential fifth team-up between developer Platinum Games (Vanquish and Bayonetta) and publisher SEGA could occur this year. This morning, those rumors were solidified into fact, as the fifth game in the four-game publishing contract between Platinum Games and SEGA was announced: Anarchy Reigns.
Sega has just released a bunch of new information, screenshots, and trailer for Super Monkey Ball 3D.
The Sega Arcade Motion from AtGames has it's highs and it's lows, but it might just make you take a second look when you see it on the shelf. I picked one up for about 26 bucks, just to tell you guys about it!
When Sega announced Sonic Colors, I was so excited. Unlike a lot of gamers, I really enjoyed Sonic Unleashed, since it was the first step in the right direction for the Blue Blur. Granted, that was because I had the PS3 version, which was a lot better than the Wii version (uneven amount of levels where you could play Sonic as opposed to the Werehog). In fact, every trailer for Sonic Colors has mad...[Read More]
Due to spending a sizable chunk of my days playing the new Sonic Colors for the pending review, I figured this week’s look-back should be of the Blue Blur and his first foray into the realm of 3D platforming. Let’s flashback to September 9, 1999. I just bought my new Sega Dreamcast (possibly the most underrated video game system ever created), and of course, picked up Sonic Adventure. ...[Read More]
Even though the release date for Yakuza 4 is still pretty far off, Sega has decided to treat us to some epic videos about the new characters. We’re going back to Japan’s underground and it feels good. Oh so good.
2010 has been an excellent year for Platinum Games, with the North American releases of Bayonetta and Vanquish providing me some of the most memorable gaming I have had the pleasure of experiencing in a very long time. Now that they’ve reached the end of their four-game publishing deal with SEGA, what comes next for the studio that has made itself very near and dear to my heart? Well, obviou...[Read More]
Update: Shortly after this release schedule was announced, a Konami representative spoke out confirming an alternate schedule. The game will be released on PSN December 14th, and on XBLA December 15th. A few months ago I discussed the announcement of the classic X-Men arcade game coming to XBLA and PSN with considerable excitement and glee. I am afraid that, in that discussion, I did not make it v...[Read More]
