Back in June we published a rather weird video from Sega called Rise of Nightmares. It’s a horror survival game with plenty of WTF. In order to promote the game they teamed up author Al Ewing and artist Marc Olivent to put together a free comic for it. It shows the side story of Private […]
Captain America: Super Solider trailer
Captain America: Super Solider is a third person action game from Sega. You get to play Captain America in an adventure written by Christos Gage – who heads up Marvel’s Avengers: The Initiative. Gage’s story is designed so that setting overlaps with the movie but includes new twists designed to enhance gameplay. Marvel and Sega […]
Rise of Nightmares trailer
This blogger isn’t all that into horror games… well, except for anything Cthulhu flavoured, or perhaps BioShock and DeadSpace, so, erm, not really into horror games unless they’re touch with the holy goodness of RPGism. One of the reasons I struggle with some horror games is – even though I see it coming – I’ll […]
Nintendo Gamecube three times more popular than Xbox 360 in Japan
You might have heard that the Xbox isn’t very popular in Japan. It’s true. There’s lots of reasons why this is the case – it’s the console from America, the games don’t always suit the Japanese market and the PlayStation 2 is so incredibly strong there. The Nintendo DS is even stronger. A recent survey […]
Sega office pranks
Seems like it’s no straight forward matter to work for Sega. Did you expect it would be? Check out what happens to one Mr Aaron Webber who foolishly left his desk unguarded for a couple of days. Not only did his co-workers give away everything on his desk. They turned it into… well, see for […]
Sega goes crazy – promotes mutant blue lump / Sonic “hat”
This blue object is a Sonic the Hedgehog hat. No, really. It is! It’s a magical hat that transforms from “what the heck is that!” to “that’s awesome!” with just the application of a beer (or one small brandy). Let’s say you’ve had that beer (or one small brandy) and now fancy the so-called hat. […]
Sonic Colours – spelt right and due out late 2010
Here’s an interesting looking game. Sonic Colours might well just be one of the games that suits the Nintendo Wii down to the ground. Okay; it’s a Sega game that you can only play on a Nintendo console. That’s a little interesting. What’s also rather nice to see is that the SEGAEurope YouTube video uses […]
Is the Alpha Protocol the Espionage RPG
They’re tagging the game as the “Espionage RPG” and I can see why – it looks like Splinter Cell. Splinter Cell wasn’t an RPG though and although this trailer looks pretty fantastic – it looks pretty linear too. Seems to me that the choices you make might not influence the plot all that much. Or […]
Alien PlayStation case-mod
A guilty secret – I sometimes read the Sega US blog. Heh. I do try and stay on the EU blogs from the main providers as I feel they’re a much more relevant read.
Today, though, I was glad I popped over to Sega. They’re sharing pictures of this:
Sonic the Hedgehog 4 – launch video and concept art
Sega‘s project “needlemouse” turns out to be Sonic the Hedgehog 4. Needle-mouse. Hmm. Perhaps the clue was in the name! The news seems to be generating quite a bit of buzz. Some of it is due to fondness for Sonic – ah; memories! I wonder whether we’ll see one or two more 2D platform games […]
