Fifi
here again for you weekly dose of the inside Sega sagas. Over
the last few weeks numerous reports on Sega's demise have been posted
across websites and magazines. The painful fact was that everyone else
seemed to know before us, the little people at Sega Europe. But if we
think about it Sega making just games isn't that bad. Personally I rather
be playing Sega games on the ps2, than not playing them at all - and that
seems to be the winning mentality here. However with all this change Sega
have hired the genius behind Pokemon to aid us in our work. "Dreamcast's
Gotta catch them all!" The
Christmas sales games results came in. Shenmue was top for the Dreamcast
in both sales…and returns! It seems that the majority of Sega gamers
were expecting more, and possibly if they had played a demo before hand
would not have purchased the game. But the money that Shenmue made would
have been enough for us to advertise more, this time on games than
football teams. As
you can probably guess being a PR for Sega at the moment is not good, with
every one already giving up on the dc. Last week my office got sent a
whole collection of beta discs for Daytona 2001; Fighting Vipers 2;
Phantasy Star Online, and Grandia 2. First reports are great. Daytona is a
favourite of mine, as all I have to do is put it in automatic and I only
have 2 buttons to press. Excellent! Only to buttons to satisfy me…Men
could learn stuff from that. Fighting
Vipers 2 caused a stir as all the men were destroying Honey's armour. It
is unsure whether her name will be changed back to Candy for the UK.
However as in all fighting games men feature more than women, and Tokio
was my favourite, Raxel's chest was oh-kay, it just needed some hairs. Sent
the beta games off to men's magazines, I have seen the preview copy text.
Standard fare with men perving over Honey's knickers. However they may
actually have a point. There is an attack that she does called 'Taste of
Honey' where she jumps up puts her legs over the opponents shoulders so
her crotch is in there face, then they fall to the ground. Maybe the
opponent fainted…maybe Honey needs to wash a bit down there. Dirty Girl,
and to think I share my name with her. At
least all those VF-X rumours were dismissed, so it is Virtua Fighter 4 and
it is appear on ps2 and dc. The more I think about Sega being a 3rd
party developer the more I get to like it. Lastly to all those EA workers
who have been insulting us in the press; 'Bring
it on' Fifi Honey Comments? Suggestions? Just wanna chat? Mail me! fifi@dreamcastsource.co.uk |
