I’ll take a cluttered Hill Zone over Sonic 4 anyday. The point is that fans make better Sonic games than Sega, even if they are incomplete. I even like Sonic XG better that S4, at least it followed the Sonic storyline

I agree with a new Streets Of Rage. That game with this generations graphics and online play would be a huge sell IMO. Add more gameplay styles like a Vs where you and someone can play online against two or four other people. Even a time challenge against others to see who can beat a stage or the game the fastest. I think Sega’s constant remake or addition to the Sonic franchise is due to lack of innovation and creativity in other gaming genres.

Didn’t Sega make Nights? Theres a game that people would get behind with updated graphics

They did a remix of the game for the Wii and there was also a Sega Ages Collection version of it for the PS2… I think the PS2 had the original unmodified Saturn game as well as a version cleaned up with PS2 graphic filters.

Sega, Sega, Sega… <Shakes head>

You’re really becoming the Atari of the early 21st Century, aren’t you?

I wouldn’t care if they died at this point. Can’t even get a damn 2D Sonic game correct these days smh.

That’s SoR2, in SoR1 you hit A+B right before landing.

EDIT: I mean attack + jump (I always mapped attack and jump to A and B and the car bomb to C)

Did not know that.

im most worried about VIRTUA FIGHTER 6

Ditto here. For years all I knew what that in all SoR’s, the best way to tech a throw would be to just mash circles on the dpad, mash the buttons and pray it works. I’ve never met someone who knew the commands for each individual SoR…

No, boss. I have the game. It’s Up+C. A’s the Special, B+C is the backhand/rear attack.

Everybody remember that JET SET RADDDIIIOOOOOOO HD comes out this summer. All Sega fans should get it.

Ok, I had no idea up+jump worked in the first game. I’ve been using the attack+jump buttons to tech throws in SoR1 for years (decades). I guess the back attack cancels the throw impact animation.

SoR1 is broken as fuck. All the characters had pause delays, and you ‘grapple kill’ some of the boss and there isn’t shit they can do about it. Blaze was the best character in 1 because her normals were better than the other two, and she had the best throw in the game.

But anyway, yeah Sega has been fucking up for years so this shouldn’t surprise anybody. They still have a couple of titles they can hang their hat on though, like the Valkyria Chronicles series.

Fixed*

rip bayonetta 2

Not that surprised, of Sega the one I remembered the most is the Sonic Pinball game on the Genesis. As for Bayonetta, it was different but not great. That new shooting game from Sega was down right terrible.

Kinda like Capcom in a way, more flash than substance but that shit is wearing down. Anyone suckered enough to have played Lost Planet, Asura’s Wrath, up coming Dragon’s Dogma. Shit Fighter basically is like Pokemon. Resident Evil is acceptable, if it stuck with stop and shoot, might as well blam that shit but REorc was passable but there was clear shortcuts in the story mode and the alternate costumes basically a different fucking color and nothing else.

wait that shit is still on?

lol…:wtf:

Don’t forget Yakuza, still my fave series this gen. And total war if you count those.

BRING THIS BACK OUT! make it modern by tweaking a few things, but this would be a good reintroduction. i also agree with the people who criticize sega for coming down on the sonic remix makers. personally, i expect a lot of game devs to go under because they are not tapping into the amazing wealth of talent from all over. it’s just the same lame people in the game industry getting recycled from job to job. without a healthy influx of hungry talent no industry can survive.

It’s hurts seeing EA doing well and SEGA doing poorly :[

What I’m guessing will happen is more devs will just take the Android/iOS/Steam/indie PC route. It’s so expensive to host a game on Nintendo/MS/Sony’s DD stores, and physical games are reserved for ‘guaranteed’ hits. The mobile or PC model at least ensures that they can make money for their efforts.

The console publishers are so strained to distribute stuff that will absolutely sell, that they can barely allow any innovative risks to get through. As the consoles enter another generation with super crazy graphics and bloated budgets-- because they must-- the situation is going to get worse. It’s up to the publishers to find talented developers, and keep a balance between staying profitable, and avoiding killing console games with ‘safe’ mediocrity.

i hope there’s still a future for Virtua Tennis. one the few VS games i play on the stick that isnt fighting.

man. anyone here remember the time when Sega dominated so much they almost bought out Bandai , challenging Mickey Mouse and Disneyland and pretty much planning to take over the whole world? … yeah what a bizzare alternate reality would that have been.
