Want to donate to Japan relief and get some cool SEGA swag?

by

Well, you still can. It looks like SEGA Of America is about done auctioning off their items, having raised thousands of dollars by selling rare merchandise on eBay the past couple of weeks.

Well, they still have a few items up. If you’re into cosplay, two Valkyria Chronicles uniforms are up for grabs, as well as some Aliens Vs. Predator games, a rare Sonic & Tails 1992 SEGA watch, and more.

Get them while you still can, and help out a truly noble cause.

Space Channel 5 Part 2 & Bass Fishing hit XBLA & PSN this summer

by

When Space Channel 5 part 2 was announced along with SEGA Bass Fishing, they had an early 2011 release date. Now that SEGA has released the titles on PC & 360 as part of the ‘Dreamcast Collection’, they delayed the digital versions.

“Space Channel 5 Part 2 and SEGA Bass Fishing are definitely coming to XBLA and PSN. Look for them sometime in late summer,” SEGA brand manager Ben Harborne

The people that seem to lose in this are the PSN users, who now have to wait till summer to get a taste of the Ulala pie (sexual? Maybe).

Rise of Nightmares hits UK on June 15th?

by


At least that is what the BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) is saying, who gave it a 18-rated classification (much like ESRB). According to the source this is the first mature rated game on Kinect, so its an untapped market.

The only thing that is scaring me right now is how little we have seen about the game, usually we get some previews and trailers. We have seen a little teaser from when it was announced, no in-game stuff really or how it will play. If its true that its coming out June 15th, I hope its a decent title at least!

Sonic facebook to have “something big” on April 7th

by


SEGA is now teasing people that Sonic’s Facebook is going to have something big, most likely on April 7th. Check out the tweets in their uncut glory below.

“There’s something big coming this week to the Sonic Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/sonic”

“Sonic’s 20th Anniversary is this year, but SEGA start celebrating on 7th April and you’ll only find out how on the Sonic Facebook page!”

So what could this be? We will find out in 48 hours, no need to have a panic attack. Could this be a Sonic social game to make old school fans even more mad? We can only dream.

Captain America: Super Solider hands on

by

Who knew that one of SEGA’s own movie license games would be getting rave reviews? Surely not us…er..anyone, really. But Captain America is seemingly exciting the masses. Destructoid’s new hands on/interview/wrap up thing details how awesome the game plays and the cinematic experience it gives through cut scenes and the fluidity of everything progressing. Check it out, it sure looks good and actually worth playing. It’ll probably sell as well as Iron man, if not better, which probably means a sequel. But promise me this, SEGA, if you do another Captain America game after this, make it good, not like the Iron Man games, or how Thor is looking. Please?

Thor: God of Thunder – HD version trailer

by


The Wii and DS versions of Thor have gotten a lot of positive press when they were shown a few days ago at a press event. The HD versions of the game? Not so much.

If you look at the trailer, it’s not hard to see why. The graphics look like an average Wii game, the gameplay seems a bit repetitive… this is just in a trailer. We will see if the team pulls off some tricks in the full retail version.

Captain America: Super Solider – HD version trailer

by


The trailer is actually called ‘next gen’, but let’s be honest, we have been in the ‘PS3 and 360’ generation for 4-5 years! We need to stop calling it next gen.

The trailer is pretty alright, SEGA has always been good at cutting together a Marvel trailer and selling the game to gamers. Have their titles been good? No, but we are willing to give it a chance, even if the trailer already shows a slowed down framerate.
