@F-ZeroX : Yeah, I fully expect Prime 4 on Switch's successor as well.
"I do wonder if when they announced Prime 4 they had even started work on the title."
I dunno how far the previous dev team at the time (forgot who it was) got on MP4 but appearently it was far enough that Nintendo could look at things and, by their standards, be so let down that they get Retro to take over and restart everything.
I'm sure Retro will do a great job with MP4 but I do hope one day someone of the previous team will post some concept art and images of the game's original direction, would love to see it.
I mean, Jones (and the women he's been with mentioned in the article) was never married or in a known serious relationship right? Atleast not during that point at the time I presume, been a long time since I followed anything with the Indy franchise.
I mean, good for Barwood for being loyal and all but he should be aware there is a difference between being a 'cheater' and being an adult single who has had several consensual "fun" relationships with other adult singles.
In a parallell universe I would be a very rich brat who has more then enough cash for this. I don't think I would buy the house BUT I would try buying everything in the Spider-Man room + the Lara Croft statue.
Funny, I actually watched a longplay of this game not too long ago. Never played it myself but it seems like the kind of PS1 game my kid self would have bought in a heartbeat. The music is lovely btw.😊
Great interview. I have played all of the mentioned games, save for The Portopia Serial Murder Case, that influenced Detective Instinct so I have high expectations of this one.
I would have liked a new VF reveal alongside those games, but right now I'm just glad we're getting new Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio, Shinobi, Golden Axe and Streets of Rage titles, especially the last two.
It wasn't even that long ago we got SoR4 (which I loved btw) but it still feels nice seeing the series staying active, and a new GA is something that I have been wanting to see for a long time, almost as long as with VF.
Seriously though, the original announcement of the new Earthworm Jim game back then was the first time in my life I heard about this laughable system, which would have still been doomed to fail even if it got released.
The fact that they believe a mobile app will save it now is just sad.

Re: Sega Is "Evaluating" A New Virtua Fighter
I would have liked a new VF reveal alongside those games, but right now I'm just glad we're getting new Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio, Shinobi, Golden Axe and Streets of Rage titles, especially the last two.
It wasn't even that long ago we got SoR4 (which I loved btw) but it still feels nice seeing the series staying active, and a new GA is something that I have been wanting to see for a long time, almost as long as with VF.

Re: Sega Resurrects The Iconic "Sega Scream" For Sonic Superstars
@Damo:
"Since then, the Sega Scream has become somewhat forgotten – until now."
Actually, as AshMcCool points out above, they already 'resurrected' the scream as recently as with atleast two Sonic Frontiers ads last year.
