The should pull the plug on the whole goddamn thing if you ask me. Doesnt take a genius to realise a movie tie-in game will suck, but Sega likes the challenge.

Nitrowolf24871d ago

has sega ever made a successful Movie game?

Liamario4870d ago

Has Sega made a good game at all in the last 10 years?!

skip2mylou4870d ago

yes they have its called valkyria chronicles, yakuza, inital d, and total war series

Nitrowolf24870d ago

@Liamario
um yeah what Skip2mylou said. I think in general Sega should drop Movie games. They don't work for them, someone else needs to take them and at least make them decent.

your right the vga trailers looked horrible

Elven64870d ago

Hello folks, these games make money! Heck, Iron Man sold nearly 4 million copies! Yeah, publishers sure are gonna say no to all those sales because the odds of making a good movie game are against them.

PSP2 is incoming and will be revealed in a few days. No need for them to put this games out.

ChristianGamer4870d ago

Can't say I blame em, psp is Pleasing Some Pirates and there is no point releasing such a low profile game on it if only 8 people were gonna play it legally

littlebigmarcpsps34870d ago

really dude
i dont know why people keep saying shit like that
keep on blaming piracy for everything. people pirated xbox games to death... i dont see developers stop making games for for example dead space 2 is already out for xbox and ps3 jailbreakers.people stop making games for PSP because no one actually waste their time playing PSP games they rather get a DS so please stop blaming piracy

cozmo1954870d ago

cmon, look at his comments he trolls on EVERY ps3 article he's just a fucking dick

Rampaged Death4870d ago

Sega should just pull the plug on all super hero stuff. Just concentrate on games like Bayonetta and Vanquish.

Liamario4870d ago

Sega only published those two games and in reality has nothing to do with their development.
Do you honestly think that the company who created Sonic Colors had any part to play in making something like Bayonetta.
Sega are not a good games company anymore.

Sega sells Relic and will cut 240 jobs across UK studios

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.

just_looken55d ago

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.

gold_drake56d ago

I hope they find new jobs in the industry soon.

Jingsing55d ago

Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol
