Claiming that most gamers who play Sonic games are not playing it for the gameplay, Sega says that Sonic Boom will be another classic entry in the franchise known mostly for its music.
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."
Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.
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.
Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol
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.
Another satire piece. I think only news should be posted to the site. You know... N4G stands for "News" for gamers. Satire pieces are not news its just fanboy war material.
Sonic games could be better.....Sonic adventure for the dreamcast felt kinda lackluster to me.
Sega could have done far a better job with sonic boom rather than this .
they had a winning formula with colors and generations also they could have added some exploration in the game without affecting the game's pace .
about the designs i didnt like them even though i approached them with open mind .
why not try a CEL-shaded sonic game with graphics on par with cartoons or anime that would be great and sonic already appeared on multiple cartoons so far .
its just a wild idea dont take it seriously am just implying that they could have done a far better job also i am blaming the studio behind not Sega .
