Sorry about that. Fortunately, the show is all ready to run this Thursday. This week: Golden Axe More »

The editor in chief of Play magazine, Dave Halverson, has some harsh words for anyone who scored Sega's Golden Axe: Beast Rider below a 7 out of 10: "Be wary. The majority of these people (can’t call them critics) either didn’t complete a fraction of the game, don’t understand game design, or just plain suck at games." At last check, all outlets but Play have reviewed the game well below Play's 9 out of 10 — the GameRankings average is currently at 44%. Halverson derides these "sad reviews" as an "ever pervasive sign of the times." More »

Don't mix beer and wine. Ever. And don't dabble in Golden Axe: Beast Rider when suffering from intercontinental jet lag. Let my folly become your wisdom. See, the Secret Level-developed update to the Golden Axe franchise is probably more... let's say... relaxing than it should be. That's a nice way of saying rather bland, as the rainbow of browns that permeate the game may lull hack 'n' slash fans into a restful slumber. More »

Remember all those lovely blue and pink dragons and purple chicken beaked things, those brightly colored characters from the original Golden Axe? You won't see much of that in the debut trailer for Sega's Golden Axe: Beast Rider, the adventure game that features a playable Tyris Flare who has traded in bikini and boots for something a bit more extreme. If we're sounding a bit down on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 franchise reboot, it's because there's not a single purple chicken beaked thing in sight. More »

SEGA America's blog gives gamers a look inside work at Secret Level, which just finished Iron Man for them and is cranking on Golden Axe: Beast Rider. A cool Flickr slideshow shows the team and some concepts, both in hard copy and rendered on computer. And two new screen caps, which is the video game porn you're here for. More »

I'm actually kind of digging the art design of these new Golden Axe: Beast Rider screens from Sega's Secret Level. A subtle, rounded, almost cartoon characteristic has softened a game that, while appearing serious, isn't taking itself too seriously (in that hardcore, epic, gonna kill you mo fo, summer box office flick way). The environment looks fairly spartan, but I could still see this one turning out to be fun. Secret Level [Secret Level] More »

Golden Axe, a personal favorite during one particularly Dirty Dancingesque summer vacation of my youth, is coming to PS3 and Xbox 360. And while we already knew that, we had no idea what that meant. Sidescroller? 3D fighter? RPG? What? More »

After French gaming site Xboxygen wrote of a Play magazine report on Secret Level's Golden Axe: Beast Rider, indicating Xbox 360 exclusivity for the Sega published title, many of you lamented another lost PlayStation 3 game. Fortunately, Sega was nice enough to get back to the gang at PlayStation Universe, who confirmed that the PS3 version of the Golden Axe-themed action RPG was still on track. I'll reserve my "Yay!" until we hear more about the game, but at least it's coming. More »

The Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3 sequel to Sega's hack n' slash series Golden Axe sure isn't gonna make its estimated 2007 release date. We haven't heard a lick about the game since it was announced way back in May of 2006 but now, we may have a name. Golden Axe: Beast Rider was recently trademarked by the Sega for "video game software" and "computer game programs" and could be the name of the next high-def iteration. More »

The retail snoopers at Gamespot have rooted out a new, as yet unannounced Sega game due for 2008. Viking: Battle of Asgard has been listed by Gamestop for the Xbox 360 and PLAYSTATION 3 revealing that Sega may be working on yet another original franchise for consoles. Details are virtually nonexistant, other than that the game is in development at Sega of America and that it's due in February of next year. More »

Jeez, this E3 is like someone kicked off the cover to the Ark of the Covenant, but instead of spitting out skull-melting ghosts, the souls of long-dead console franchises are being unleashed afresh into the world to do mischief. 1UP is reporting that Sega has announced a new Golden Axe game coming to the PS3 and 360 in 2007.
