Lens of Truth - "The 7th and latest installment in Sega’s Ryū ga Gotoku series (aka Yakuza) will be released this coming Tuesday in Japan. Officially titled Yakuza: Of The End, the game takes place after the events of Yakuza 4 and during an apparent zombie outbreak in Kamurocho. A few weeks ago Sega released a demo on the Japanese PSN, and we must say it was a blast."
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.
The demo was awesome! Hope this comes to the U.S.
Completely changing every thing while keeping the feel of the franchise, This will be a great game.
I completely agree PsychoGamer, I love this series, and the addition of zombies and guns looks to make it even better.
@Joe Bomb - this will come to the US...this time next year I bet.
The controls (when you press R2 aiming goes to the wrong place) and camera were the bad things about the demo. Hopefully there is online co-op in the future.
