Never trust Sega.
 
It's not actually that bad. (Or that bad-looking, either). Although I'll never understand why they got the arcade flight sim developer to make Alien Syndrome and the third-person shooter developer to make After Burner.

Still, so long as it's part of a master plan to let Planet Moon do a new Space Harrier, I approve.

Now THAT looks like a N64 game.

Seeing those pics really gives me no hope for the Wii's third party support. They clearly have no real respect for the format if they are using the PSP as the lead format.

Don't get me wrong, I like the PSP. I just think it's laughable that the Wii is taking ports from a handheld. It totally undermines the systems potential and power. I bet the Wiimote useage in the game is shamelessly tacked on, something like tilting the controller back to reload. Pffttt.

If SEGA had any sense of shame they'd make this the first original downloadable game on the VC/Wii Ware channel. To have this as a full price release on the Wii is a joke.

Konami and Dewy's Adventure say hi.
 
ouch. my eyes! please tell me this is an early build.

Looking at it more, it looks like a colorful killzone liberation... with larva.
 
The only way this could be redeemable in anyway whatsoever: 480p, 16:9, online play, actually being fun

That's a lot of odds to roll against.

Do bad screenshots now automatically make a game 'cack' then?


NO see you can't play the gameplay > graphics card here as they didn't even come up to the Gamecube level.

There is NO excuse for sub-xbox graphics here.

definitely.

:lol at people saying '3rd party on Wii is doomed' because of 3 screens though :lol
 
Sega's sabotage of their competitor's consoles is nearing completion. Soon, the Dreamcast 2 will stand over the rotting corpses of the Wii, PS3 and 360.
 
hahaha

does the size of the grating change on different floor panels?

and i thought i was shit at UV mapping :lol
 
Seems like SEGA's "western outsourcing/classic IP" revival is sort of backfiring... how long until we get a decent one?

I'm pulling for Golden Ax. But seeing as how there is zero media and the release date is very close, all I can expect is bad things.

The PS2 remake of Alien Syndrome was good btw. Not exactly flawless but it was decent enough as Smash TV/Loaded esque game.

And hey this version of Alien Syndrome could be 60 fps..WooWoo?
