SEGA takes down Streets of Rage Remake downloads

SEGAbits: "Fans want a Streets of Rage Remake and SEGA didn't answer. What did they do? They did it themselves, without using any of SEGA's code. They recently released the final version of their game and it didn't excite SEGA too much."

Damn sux for those who didn't download it i downloaded it right away so i'm safe.

...Sega doesn't give the fans what they want, and they don't want anyone else to give it to them either. Look at the Sonic Remix thing.

Amateurs and fans are releasing better SEGA-games than Sega. How sad is that!?

davidmccue4759d ago

i am sure it will end up on the torrent websites. If someone who downloaded it is kind enough to put it on a few.

SEGA are trash, they make trash games, they took the most iconic mascot and turned him into turd. We all know Sonic and his turd games and they cancel and fan games which are better then their games.

So f*** you piece of shit Sega.

zeal0us4759d ago

lol I did too after reading it on joystiq "download the Windows game here before Sega's lawyers hit the Streets."

SEGA should be honored that this team put together such an excellent remake! Very unfortunate to hear that they shut it down after all these years of hard work that BomberGames put into this...

Alos884759d ago

8 years of effort down the drain, I haven't been depressed like this about a fan game since Chrono Trigger Crimson Echoes. (At least this got released, though...)

lucifon4759d ago

Bollocks I was meaning to download this, just been so busy this week. I'm sure someone will host it somewhere, it's the internet - you can't stop it!!

Such a shame too, if Sega decide to reboot the franchise it'll know doubt be an insult of a game too. The fans do it right.

Sega sells Relic and will cut 240 jobs across UK studios

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."

Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.

just_looken21d ago

It was that garbage coh 3 that did them in only a special team can make a sequel worse in every way even though it was a 10 year gap and the same era.

gold_drake21d ago

I hope they find new jobs in the industry soon.

Jingsing21d ago

Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol

SEGA’s Switch Predecessor: What Happened to the Nomad?

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.
