Alright, so I sort of intended to do this monthly but I was on vacation for the July issue. I apologize. So here is August’s round up of stories. Sadly, this month is a bit shallow with orginal content, we are going to deliver tons of original stuff for the September round up.
Pretty damn good right? While Yakuza 1 and 2 had pretty good box art, Sega got a lot of flack for the rather cheap looking Yakuza 3 cover art.
However rejoice, Yakuza 4 has one a very striking and suitable box art, in fact I would go as far as to say it is the best Western cover art for the series so far.
Note the subliminal messages all over the cover promoting ‘sexy girls’ and sex in general, nice!
Here is the Yakuza 4 announcement trailer, a bit late, since it was announced awhile back. Regardless, its coming out Spring 2011, for those of you who want to skip to the end.
I noticed that in the Western trailers, SEGA is afraid to let the characters talk, because they assume all Americans are afraid of Japanese speak. Well, we are, thank you SEGA.
Alright, here is the first ever contest at SEGAbits, so lets hope this goes over smoothly. We have one copy of Super Monkey Ball: Step and Roll and 25 Chiquita shirts and/or Aiai Shirts (randomly selected) to give away, so if you enter, you will most likely win something.
Steve “SOL” Lycett from Sumo Digital was nice enough to give an interview for the upcoming Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing. We tried to ask most of the questions we wanted more information about and I think the interview came out pretty good, read it yourself after the jump.
Such a weird concept, who thought about making a game about monkeys in balls that you roll down tracks? I mean its borderline insane, even more insane is that this is now a franchise. Hit the jump and read our review for the latest entry in the Super Monkey Ball franchise.
Hello and welcome one and all! As many, or perhaps some, or maybe even very little know, the SEGA Sammy Holdings released their financial statement for 9 months ended December 31st 2009 and for once in quite sometime managed to get themselves out of the red and back into the black. So let’s find out how they did, shall we?
