Sitting in teh front row of the Sega Gamers Day.
They just announced that Gas Powered Games partnered up with them to make a brand new original RPG for the PC.
The game will be unveiled in a few weeks, says Sega of America president Simon Jeffrey.
Sega of America was number ten for market share last year, up from number 14 in 2005 and number 16 in 2004.
On to the announcements:
First up is Happy Tree Friends, a download only game for PC and XBLA. It's Itchy and Scratchy meets the Lemmings. Yes, it has that happy meets horror feel and look of the fantastic web animation.
They're showing a clip now. In it two bunnies are enjoying a meel when a commando bunny jumps in and starts killing them with straws and ketchup and mustard bottles. Classic. And lots of blood.
The next game they are announcing is Ghost Squad. Ghost Squad will be going exclusive to the Wii. Oh, and it will be playable here today.
The game appears to be a first person shooter with knives and gomes. Oh and it's going to use a light gun. HOLY SHIT a LIGHT GUN.
You can unlock 25 tactical weapons and it looks an awful lot like Time Crisis.
Next up is Universal War. It was already announced for the PC, today they're saying it's also coming to the Xbox 360.
The demo they are showing seems to be showing snippets of giant robots, helicopters and other vehicles attacking each other.
Ah, now to updates.
Talking Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games.Games. Besically, they just said they're really excited... aren't we all.
OK, talking Marvel, specifically Iron Man and Hulk. They're talking about the Iron Man movie right now... and they said the director is interested in working with Sega on the game.
Both games will be coming out next Spring.
OK, on to the hands on previews. See ya later. Check back for my impressions later on today.
Update - They just announced Condemned 2 Bloodshot for the 360 and PS3 - That is all.
