As the world is days away from ending, the Daily Reaction crew of Sebastian Moss and Dan Oravasaari celebrate the next segment in the ’12 Days of Christmas’ choral with The Five Golden Rings, and that means SEGA. We discuss their past, their present, and what SEGA can do to stay relevant this coming year. Also, we celebrate Dan’s Birthday today, argue about the PS4 and get updates as to what has been going on since we last heard from our inebriated hosts.
SEGA has announced Fearless: Year of Shadow, a campaign that celebrates Sonic the Hedgehog and his brooding acquaintance, Shadow.
GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.
The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."
Sega had such a turbulent existence from the mid-90s to when they dropped out of console manufacturing entirely in 2001, it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of the Genesis Nomad.
Never liked Sega's properties all that much. Something tells me that won't be changing any time soon.
