I wish we had Total Biscuit with us I hope 10K is enough for Sega to react.

Nah

But even so it's not likely Sega would want anything to do with a port that involved their own money, especially if the game bombs, so it doesn't really affect the exclusivity.

Yeah but the fact that they funded an anime movie and the art book localization kinda gives me hope that Sega will pay more attention to the franchise in the future. For Bayo 3.

My original goal was 15k, I should have gone with that but once press started reporting 20k I decided it was too late for any of the changes previously referenced.

Amazon is currently doing a 48 hour Sega sale.

Ok, the VC deal with Sony makes sense. But if Sony knows fans love the series, why won't they make more effort to put VC3 on PSN in the west?

Did Sony actually work out an exclusivity deal with Sega in regards to Valkyria Chronicles? I thought it was more of a "that's where the audience is" type of affair.

Signed that motha, I live in Sanshiro Town. I had hoped there'd be separate lines for Street and City so I could put Segata Town, Sanshiro BLVD

Not sure if it would help, but I believe RubyEclipse works for Sega of America. So might be worth shooting him a PM just to be sure he's aware of the petition if no one has done that yet.

Ruby's aware, as is Clumsy Orchid. Orchid actually wants this to happen but he hasn't been able to give me any info as to whether it actually will.

Looking at the banner it's weird seeing Rez HD there since the developers bought the rights back from Sega.

We should do another wave on Twitter. Everyone who already did their thing on Twitter should do it again. I'm going to be at SEGA Cup again this year and will be in the commenting booth again as well. Going to see if I can print a shirt soon also...Lets keep this going fellas.

If it would only translate into signatures ...

We've been decently active this past week, relative to our slower weeks anyways. The Steamgifts' giveaway campaign attracted some attention and we'll probably do a few more. Once we cross 10k I'm intending to send out an email update asking folks to tweet, target the remaining outlets that didn't cover us, like the facebook page, follow the twitter account, etc.

Thanks for the support, we definitely need another push targeting media outlets, but as Taro has mentioned, we should do this once we hit 10.000 signatures, we are not far off now. I just hope that the press deems 10K newsworthy.

When is the SEGA Cup taking place?

 

[Grief.exe]

At this point, we could just say we have 10k signatures. Rounding.

 

[LoudCore]

Totally signed this.

 

[Nillansan]

If it would only translate into signatures ...

The Binary Domain and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow giveaways that I did on Steamgifts.com has attracted 3781 entrants. The Far Cry 2: Fortune's Edition that I posted for ArjanN had 4115 entrants. We have gained 278 signatures since the first giveaway was posted approximately a week ago.

Rukumouru, a friend on Steam, created a giveaway to create awareness about the campaign.

Newest Humble Weekly sale is SEGA titles

https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly

Such a good deal, Renegade Ops (by Avalanche for any Just Cause 2 fans, it's one of the best twin stick shooters out there and has Gordon Freeman in it), Alpha Protocol (awesome WRPG by Obsidian, if you can get over its buggy quirks), Company of Heroes (the best RTS ever), Shogun 2 (best RTT game ever) and Binary Domain (which is one of my favorite TPS games ever, behind the Uncharted titles and Vanquish).

Basically everybody should buy it because it's an amazing deal with amazing games. Wish it had both CoH's expansions in it but those are mostly good for multi and they probably want folks to move onto the inferior CoH2.

 

[Shaneus]

I have beasically all bar one or two of those titles. I think it's each of the Total War games.

Shame there's no soundtrack option with those. The guy who did the Total War scores is famous game composer Jeff Dyck, who did (amongst other things) Skitchin' and NFS2.

 

[Spaghetti]

alpha protocol is the best wrpg of the past generation. combat is a bit fucked but it's worth it for the rpg parts.

If people are interested in the PC ports campaign they should consider contributing to this humble bundle. It may get SEGA's attention.

Ah right.

I've been squinting at this bundle for a while as it has a lot of stuff I don't really want...but It's important for Sega's PC offerings to remain lucrative...So fine. With this combined with my Sonic the Hedgehog franchise PC pack adds to the cause.

May I ask what games in it you don't want? Basically the whole thing is super excellent.

I agree with this statement, my Mass Effect loving friend disagrees. He's wrong.

Also, we just broke 9,800 and I posted the humble weekly bundle on the petition news.

 

[Mesoian]

See no, I can't. All the keys are combined which was one of my problems with it. The only individual key was shogun.

I own Renegade Ops 3 times now, Binary Domain twice and I never really had much interest in the total war games outside of Shogun.

Edit: Oh and Typing of the Dead twice.

Nice. I will be doing some more giveaways in the coming days, hopefully we will hit 10K by the end of next week.

 

[Techies]

Yea it's too bad Totalbiscuit refuses to cover anything Sega (since they screwed him with some copyright claim horseshit) cause that'd give the campaign a massive boost as it did when he covered the Dark Souls petition.

Can't he just like drop it already, in favor of these ports.

NiGHTS is on sale for $2.50 on Steam right now. Support the cause I guess?

Is it any good?

Nights is a great game, the port itself isn't 100% perfect but it's solid. The controls are just a tiny bit off, that's all.

Some of them did just not as many as we wanted or needed I suppose.

What's off with the controls? I have a fightpad for X360 that has the same layout as a Saturn controller.

FYI, Nights plays better with analog sticks.
