PSU writes, "While discussing Thor: God of Thunder with PSU at a recent SEGA press event, Liquid Entertainment's Andrew Rubino set the record straight: Thor is 'not a movie game.'"

Deja Vu.

This is Iron Man all over again.

DevilsJoker5187d ago

It just so happens to be a game with underwhelming visuals and innovation that is released on every console known to man to appeal to the broadest audience possible and purely exists to coincide with the release of a movie by the same name.

Doesn't make it a movie game, right?

xVeZx5187d ago

not going to be a good game either

Soldierone5187d ago

If it wasn't then it wouldnt coincide with the movie, wouldn't use a crappy engine, would take several years to develop, and probably be made by a studio with an actual budget. You know like WB's Arkham Asylum....

Don't forget they've put a lot of these on gamepass and ps plus so you can add that money to it. Good to see Sega going strong

Happy for sega ! I was expecting some kind of showing of their newer games at game fest but maybe they’re keeling it for TGS? Crazy taxi and jet set needs a trailer or something soon !!!

Atlus coming in strong for Sega thankfully

What about the Yakuza series and Sonic?

I like what's on their legacy IP list, but there are still many more franchises they could revive. Shining Force and Chakan come to mind.

The Dreamcast was the biggest gamble and way ahead of its time.

I wish we lived in the Alternate Timeline where Sega was still a dominant force in the console space and it hadn't been Microsoft.

Deeeeznuuuts48d ago

I've always said this, would much prefer SEGA, such a shame.

blacktiger47d ago

this was all part of the plan to give Microsoft the spot

Would be interesting to see what they would do for a modern console.

Saturn was a fantastic piece of kit... they just went a little too ambitious with its dual CPU setup. which turned a lot of developers off (at the time). The homebrew community have done some amazing work many years later, thanks to multichip experience. It is still the best platform for arcade fighters and shmups of all time. Dreamcast is a close 2nd though.

Profchaos48d ago

Yeah it was a interesting decision especially when looking at how dual CPU is considered a root cause of why the Jaguar was a failure.

Also the hardware rendered four sided polygons where the standard was three if they kept with triangle polygons I feel the systems development would have been easier to work with and we would have seen more third party ports in the west.

I think it was a victim of its time more than anything it saw huge success in Japan but the leadership and internal turmoil in the west meant games were not getting localised along with a focus on arcade like games were the PlayStation and later the N64 were pushing more in depth experiences over coin munching high score driven games.

Knightofelemia49d ago

I still enjoy my Saturn it was the first console I mowed lawns for and saved up for to purchase. I went so far as to purchase a used Saturn to run off an SD card. I even have a second Dreamcast modded to run off an SD card as well.
