SEGA All-Stars Racing DLC out today

“It’s a 1986, don’t hate.”

Nothing really big, just two items confirmed if you happen to be a European PS3 owner, since it was revealed via the European Playstation blog. Death Egg Zone seems like a track and character… lets hope it makes it to the American update.

– Metal Sonic & Death Egg Zone (£4.79/€5.99)
– Ryu Forklift Character Pack (£3.99/€4.99)

Also, there is now price drops on both Outrun Arcade Online (£7.99/€9.99 now – £5.25/€6.59) and Gunstar Heroes (£3.99/€4.99 now – £2.39/€2.99). If you don’t own them, maybe its time to pick them up.

by


After Burner Climax is set to hit XBLA on April 21st and on PSN April 22nd. The price for the complete game will be $10 USD (800 microsoft pts).

That is incredible deal for 20 levels and 3 planes to choose from. Not to mention the graphics look awesome and you save some quarters.

This week in gaming: The Witch returns

by


This is something I always wanted to do on a Sunday, this will be a weekly feature where I post links to stories in gaming for the week that I liked or seen around. This means it won’t be SEGA related, most likely.

  • – The Witcher 2 debut trailer – The surprise may have been killed off due to alpha footage being leaked, the debut trailer for The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings is still very impressive. Developers have stated this is more  ‘non-linear’ compared to the first game; can’t wait!
  • – No Penny Arcade Episode 3 – Even though I can’t walk around here all high and mighty, condemning you all for not buying the first 2 episodes; because I have not played them. But it is a bit sad seeing another episodic series fail.
  • – Xbox Game Room launches – Microsoft’s Xbox Game Room has launched, a bit rough at first but seems to be running fine for me. Problem is there is not much stuff to do. Fan reaction has been mixed.
  • – Biggest winners and losers for March – Can you believe that SEGA made it in at number 2? Go SEGA. Check out the other 5 winners.

So what stories did you guys read this week that you guys liked?

Want more SEGA games on PSN?

by


Sony has put up a new ‘sharing’ site for ideas. The concept is for users to submit their ideas, others vote and it will be easier for Sony to sort out what fans want and reduce spam on their blog.

Well, if you are one of those people that are tired of the lack of SEGA games on PSN, vote for it here; maybe someone at SEGA will listen.

Yakuza 4 demo hits Japanese PSN

by

If you have a Japanese PSN account and can’t wait to try out the next Yakuza installment, now is your chance to try out the demo. The demo is available for free on the Japanese PSN. Enjoy!

I can’t tell you much about the demo other than its 1.8gb in size, so make some room. I’m actually downloading it as I type this.

Valkyria Chronicles’ latest DLC missing English voices

by

If you have played Valkyria Chronicles and its last 3 DLCs, you would know that they feature English (and optional Japanese) voice overs. It seems that the choice is now gone in the latest DLC titled The Challenge of the Edy.

Why did SEGA take out the English voice overs? Most likely to cut cost. Seems that SEGA is really penny pinching now-a-days. I wonder if Valkyria Chronicles 2 will be Japanese only?

After Burner Climax achievements revealed

by


I bet you can’t wait to get your hands on the XBLA/PSN port of After Burner Climax? I can’t either, but it seems SEGA has been pretty hush hush about the port.

Well we have a small update, the achievement list for the upcoming game has made it online and you can read it here. As for trophies, they will be the same.

[Thanks: Orta]

Sonic 4.1: Eggman’s checkered ball [Update]

by


[EDIT: SEGA has asked us to remove the picture in question. You can read the rest of the story about the photo below]

This screen was posted via our forums by our residential troll. I was not going to post it up at first, but the screen does look real. Thoughts?

[Update] It is real, according to Tweaker from Sonic Retro, the image was posted in a IRC room and not suppose to be shown to the public. Of course, Kogen then decided to post that image on our forums, thus creating this post. [/Update]

Yakuza 3 demo is missing content

by

“No time for love, Dr. Jones”

I played the Yakuza 3 Japanese demo for quite awhile and noticed some stuff that was missing from the US demo. First of all the arcade section was missing AnswerXAnswer arcade mini-game.

Then I also noticed that they took off hostess bar section. You can’t try it out in the demo, leading me to believe it is not going to be in the full game since the US trophy list that was just released is missing the 2 hostess trophies. This also confirms a rumor that came out a few months ago saying that the western release wouldn’t have the hostess sections in it.

Why did SEGA edit out hostess content from this game and not the others? No idea.

New After Burner Climax trailer and info

by

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.

Hit the jump to see the options screen!
