Rise of Nightmares: It’s a pretty creepy title. It makes sense in the context of the game, the nightmares are rising and it is up to you to keep them down and defeat them.
STAMACSTA: What?!
According to the Australian Classification Board, a game developed by SEGA’s CS3 team containing “strong horror violence, blood and gore” will be released in Australia. This describes Rise of Nightmares to a T, however the title does not match up. In the classification, this game is titled “STAMACSTA”. Either SEGA’s CS3 team are developing two gory games and we have yet to hear of this other one, or much more likely STAMACSTA is Australia’s title for Rise of Nightmares. Fingers crossed that a classification board employee accidentally let his cat walk on the keyboard rather than this being true. It’s quote an awful title. “Stam-acts-ta”?
After the break, check out the classification information.

STAMACSTA!? I highly doubt its Rise of Nightmares… It's probably (and hopefully) a new game.
Yeah, though the developer and the rating description is just too much like Rise of Nightmares to be a new game. I can't imagine CS3 having the time to make two games and even if they do, why develop two violent titles? Hopefully they prove us wrong. I'd prefer a new title to STAMACSTA.
