It’s been a while since we saw our last Yakuza 4 trailer, but no more! The latest trailer for the latest entry into the Yakuza 4 goes onto show the depth of the now much expanded Kamurocho from the underground to the top of various buildings. The trailer also shows the new move sets and HEAT moves able to be performed by the new characters and much more.
SEGA has announced a new version of Virtua Fighter 5 today via the trailer above. Outside of this, not much is known, the only thing we do know is that it will be for arcades and it will carry over your Virtua Fighter 5 R items to the new updated version.
So now that we got the “final” version out, can we have our console port SEGA?
In SEGA’s latest trailer for the long overdue Yakuza 3, we get to have a look at the characters, old and new, that make up the complex storyline. From returning characters of Majima to Kazuma’s newest ally Rikiya, Kazuma going to have a job on his hand trying to stop an all out war from erupting within the Tojo Clan!
The last time we left Mario & Sonic at the Winter Olympic Games, SEGA confirmed they had shipped 5.67 million by the end of December. Well it seems that another milestone has been reached with SEGA announcing the title making it past the 6 million mark. It probably comes as no surprise then considering not only the popularity of both characters but also due to the fact that minigame collections are all round big sellers on the Wii.
At any rate, it seems like the sequel will manage to get to the lofty heights of over 10 million that the original reached.
According to Lost Gamer, the English version of the Yakuza 3 demo is set to hit the PSN Store today. I also hear that Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing is suppose to hit PSN as well. Two for one.
There have been a ton of rumors flying around about Vanquish, the new title by Platinum Games. One of the rumors was that it was a Playstation 3 exclusive because of a leak were SEGA mentioned it might have PSP connectivity and after the trailer hit the internet, everyone assumed it was a shooting game. It seems that both rumors might be correct, according to the Official Playstation Magazine podcast.
“Next time we’ll be talking shooters with Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, Vanquish and another very special game yet to be announced.”
Sure this does not make it a Playstation 3 exclusive, but I have yet to see any signs to point at a 360 version and we all know that Mikami is not scared of going exclusive. See: Resident Evil: Code Veronica and Resident Evil 4. Also the guys at OPM have said its a shooter…
(Yes, I know that everyone is excited about the ‘very special game’ that is yet to be announced, that is cool, but its not a SEGA game!)
There has been little to no After Burner Climax information, so we are posting the little information SEGA has posted online. First of all we have a new trailer, that is fast and full of action above.
In one of the game’s blog updates, producer Toru Murayama confirmed that the game will not have online co-op. They decided to “hold off” on the feature after talking with the original arcade team. The game will be shown in playable form next week in the Xbox 360 Shooting Festa.

The talking head behind the microphone for Inside Xbox goes and visits Sumo Digital to talk about Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing. If you want to know about why Sonic name is in the title, how Banjo tie-in came along and avatars check out the video.
SEGA of Japan has filed a trademark for “Zettai Zetsumei!! Kyouryu Jigoku“, that translates to “Desperation!! Dinosaur Hell“. Hopefully this is not just a mature spin-off of their Dinosaur King series. That would be weird.
I assume this would be an arcade game? Am I the only one excited about a game that has dinosaurs in hell fucking shit up?
Yet another trailer for the upcoming Alien vs Predator game! This time featuring the species death match mode where you will select either alien, predator or marine and join a team of the same species and duke it out with opposing species!
This mode was the bread and butter of the old AvP games if you ask me, great fun!
I’ve seen some very mixed reviews coming in for AvP, some love it and some hate it! I’ve played the demo and found it very fun… One of my close friends absolutely loves it. What is your opinion?
Also worth noting is that I saw a commercial for this game last night after the Brit Awards on ITV1.
Check out Napoleon: Total War – Community Chapter 2 to find out what is new in the next Total War game, Napoleon: Total War. Including a new multi player mode, general abilities, diplomacy skills and more.
The game is set to release at the end of February. If you are a Sega fan that has yet to try this series out, (I know there’s quite a few of you!) and you have the kind of PC that can run it. This is a good time to start, the depth and level of detail in the Total War series is a marvel!
I’m not quite sure how many of you out there have ever entered a game tournament, but a certain SEGA classic, Crazy Taxi, will be making an appearance as one of the games selected to appear at the Iron Man of Gaming 2010. But there’s more! The final mystery game that appears at the tournament is also a SEGA game from the looks of things. If you feel your particular set of gamer skills are enough to win the tournament or just a hardcore Crazy Taxi fan looking for a bit of competition, how about you give it a try?
Well there you go! A leaked off screen video of ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 4’. You can clearly see four levels, Splash Hill Zone, Lost Labyrinth Zone, Casino Street Zone, Mad Gear Zone not to mention a special stage. Each seem to have three acts and a boss battle.
Four Zones with Three levels each and one boss means twelve levels in total, four bosses and a special stage. Although, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a fifth final zone. At the right price I think that’s a good amount of content for a downloadable game.
As for impressions,
SEGA has trademarked “Drama Engine” for both North America and Europe, it will be used for video games and also for 3D computer graphic software and facial motion capture software. What is it?
Well one would guess is that its some sort of middleware? Some people think it might have something to do with SEGA’s facial imagining game Project Beauty for the NDS. Hard to know what it is really, any guesses here?
Look at that awesome figure, wouldn’t you want to have one? I would! Problem? There are only 75 made. So you should all sign up and hope to get one. If not you can always try ebay and pay way too much for one. Enter the contest here.
Getting that error? Well, I forgot to mention that the contest is only for US residents only.
