Sega's ten day countdown epic continued today with the next-360action teaser site advancing one day, to six.
Like previous updates, this one manages to find a new way to represent its number. Past updates have used decimal digits, roman numerals and kanji. This time, we got six written as the English "six."
Today's message reads something along the lines of: "Count 6. We have this complicated state of mind where we want people to look forward to it, but if people look forward to it too much it is troubling."
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.
Intreasting, wonder what it could be.
honestly sega's track record as of late hasn't been to shabby. Sonic Team has been lackluster lately but Sega did create Valkyrie Chronicles this gen. Along with Yakuza, The Total War series is going strong, and Sonic 4 episode 1 looks solid enough. As a sega fan I'm confident this will be pretty good and I hope Sonic Team finds that mojo they once had.
