Free Sonic and Iron Man comics!

by


I love free stuff, do you? Well, May 1st is free comic book day and you will be able to pick up 30 select titles for free, which happens to include Sonic the Hedgehog and Iron Man.

You can see the site’s FAQ to answer all your questions. Reason they are giving them away for free? Comic sales are going down, trying to get people hooked by giving them a free comics could increase subscribers. Its like crack.

Its really sad, the comic book shop I used to go to when I was in high school is now closed. It would have been cool to stop buy.

Rumor: XSEED to bring Ivy The Kiwi to America?

by


XSEED seems to be on a role, bringing cult games over to America. They just released Lunar: Silver Star Harmony on the PSP and are already teasing their next project via Twitter. I have to admit, sounding like it can be Ivy The Kiwi.

“XSEED is poised to announce one of our hidden titles next week. It’s sure to be a feather in our cap…”

Not good enough? How about we add another tweet…

“For those guessing certain titles as our mystery announcement, you don’t really think we’d keep all our eggs in one basket, do you? ^_-”

Their third hint says it will be revealed via Nintendo Power magazine. If that was not enough, their facebook is hinting birds as well. It could most likely be Ivy in the Kiwi, XSEED has published Namco-Bandai games before and this is by Yuji Naka, enough to make a cover story. We shall keep you posted.

Ironman 2 launch trailer

by

Here is the launch trailer for Secret Level’s final game, Iron man 2. What can I say? It sure looks like a secret level game! In fact it looks very much like the first Iron man game in motion and we all know how that turned out.

Needless to say I’m not a fan and I’m rather glad Sega have closed down Secret Level. Although I hate to see anyone lose their jobs Secret Level aren’t the right kind of developer for Sega and Iron man isn’t the right kind of game. If Capcom can survive with out movie games in their line up I think Sega should be able to as well.

Media Create: Yakuza 4 drops out of top 10

by


What a tragedy, Yakuza 4 has finally meet its end, at least in the top 10 Media Create charts. It dropped from number 10 last week to number 18 this week (April 19th – 25th), pretty big fall.

Could be worse, could have been No More Heroes’ Paradise that went from number 7 last week to number 29 this week. Now that is a massive fall off. As for other SEGA games on the charts… what other games?

check out the full chart after the jump.

Top 10 ways to improve the next Phantasy Star Online game

by

I love Phantasy Star Online, while Phantasy Star Universe was still a good game, it suffered from some bad decisions in gameplay and the way it was handled. It did however do a good job of stepping the gameplay up a notch.

If SEGA is planning a new HD Phantasy Star Online franchise, they need to make it a huge leap forward, not just baby steps. Here’s how we’d do it!

SEGA to liquidate GameWorks

by

Remember all those GameWorks locations that SEGA has closed down, stating that they might re-open some of the locations in the near future? Well, fuck those plans.
SEGA shut down 15 locations (which we know) and has began liquadating under “general assignment for the benefit of creditors“.

It was only a  matter of time for this to happen, GameWorks needs to change the way they do business if they want to survive against bigger chains that offer the same entertainment.

Obsidian CEO says Aliens RPG felt finished

by


We know that Aliens RPG has been in development for awhile, then SEGA had to go in and pull the plug.

At a press event last week, Joystiq asked Obsidian CEO Feargus Urquhart some questions about Aliens RPG. So what did he have to say about the unreleased game?

“Oh, if you had come in and played any of the last builds we were working on, you would have said it was a finished game, that’s how close we were. It looked and felt like it was ready to ship.”

Other info he gave out was that you only played as the Colonial Marines in the game, that missions would involve tasks like protecting sentry guns  that were featured in a deleted scene in Aliens the movie.

Rumour: Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown on Console by Christmas?

by

There are rumblings over at VirtuaFighter.com with rumours of Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown recieving a console release for Christmas 2010 or March 2011. Obviously SEGA fans are skeptical with the recent XBLA rumours being debunked, but unlike those, these come from a long time member of the VFDC Forums, and longer time Virtua Fighter fan.

Details are scarce, with one post claiming

It’s happening………………. !

But that’s all I’ll say.

Since then others have reported that the game is scheduled for a Christmas 2010 or March 2011 release, or backed up the initial post.

Fingers crossed, fans have been waiting a long time for the next Virtua Fighter.

Iron Man 2 – Prologue Trailer

by

Anyone that knows me knows I hated everything about the original Ironman game, which is a shame because Ironman has always been my favorite Marvel hero.

I won’t lie and tell you that I think Ironman 2 is going to be any better, I don’t and it’s just not the kind of game I want to see from Sega. But too give credit where credit is due… This is a cool trailer! I think it captures the whole filthy rich playboy life style of Tony Stark with that crazy Marvel twist. Check it out!
