"Decapitations, nudity and bloodletting"
Gameplayer has gone live with some information and screenshots on the next-gen reinvention of the famous Golden Axe series entitled Beast Rider.
Get the scoop on Comedy Central's exciting new cartoon show inspired by the iconic Golden Axe video game
Golden Axe is a great game I enjoyed it on the SMS, Genesis and in the arcade. Great game but it truly was a quarter eater back in the day. I wish Sega could get the rights to the arcade port of Moonwalker another great arcade game I enjoyed. Collect so many monkeys and become Robo Michael lol.
Okay, Sega. the devs of Streets of Rage 4 together and let's make a new Golden Axe happen.
These remakes and remasters are must-haves in this next generation.
Gunstar Heroes was made by Treasure. I'm not sure if that IP actually belongs to Sega. If it does, the ONLY modern day developer that I think would do that game justice is Housemarque. Maybe Sega could collaborate with Sony to let them make a modern day Gunstar Heroes. I definitely think Shinobi and Afterburner need modern day remakes though.
I feel like there are stronger Sega IP's than some of the ones that were listed such as...
Vector Man
Comix Zone
Virtual On
Ranger X
Jet Set Radio
Landstalker
Eternal Champions
Totally agreed. That’s a good start. Here’s a few more I think would covert well.
Virtua Fighter
Fighting Vipers
Sonic Adventure
Condemned
Shinobi
Altered Beast
Shenmue (properly supported)
Probably still my favorite horror game of all time. I’ve been into that kind of shit my whole life so I don’t scare easy but condemned got me. When you’re looking down a hallway and see people peaking out. The heart was kicking lmao.
I need to play it again. I played a year or 2 ago and it still held up. Graphics are obviously dated but just the premise. Like pulling pipes off of the wall and shit. You don’t see that anymore. I’d take the same game with a new can of paint, it still feels good. Multiplat remaster do it. I don’t think criminal origins ever came to PlayStation.
As hard as it was, the Shinobi remake that came out on PS2 was decent. But yes, a new remake would be great. Always loved that series.
... Sega will see sense and do a next gen remake of Golden Axe 1..?
Well, one can dream.
is they better not screw this up! So many things could go wrong with a new version of a gaming classic like this. I hope they can pull it off and still have that classic Golden Axe flavor. I fear, however, it will turn out to be just another hack and slash adventure.
make this game only one player? Come on the whole fun of golden axe was playing with one of your buddies hacking down enemies and fighting to see which one gets to ride the killer dragon.
I don't care what anybody says, I've always loved playing as Tyris Flare. The other characters were good of course, but I always liked her style. This game is gonna be near the top of my "to buy" list when it's released.
