The sega reveal was the best part of the awards imo. Its awesome they decided to make new games at long last. They'll be buggy upon launch and they'll be fun anyhow methinks.

I had time to take a look at it and I'm seriously excited and can't wait to see what they have done with these games.

Hopefully there was enough budget to make Golden Axe all it could be.

Golden Axe holds a special place for me. It really was so fun and gd for it's time. Hope they Ace this shit!

I played this so much on the Genesis with my friends back in the days! That was the 16-bit revolution taking place in the living room.

Mind you, Sega could have made a version closer to the arcade on the Sega CD instead of that crappy 5 games disc they gave with the unit back in the days... they have let down the series since then (at least at home).

Thankfully they've actually started this idea with Sonic,

But you serve all masters. 2D megadrive physics sonic Mania. 2.5D/3D sections Sonic Superstars. 3D Sonic Frontiers. And I don't know why the hell they've not got Sumo permanently on tap for further SEGA ALL-STARS RACING FFS.

Have the gameplay/genre faithful Mania/SOR Remake line. Have the mordenized take like Sonic 4/SOR 4, and then have the genre-shifted experimental attempt at IP use (Frontiers in our Sonic example, The Beuro XCOM Declassified as a different example).

Basically, yeah I'll play that weird looking Golden Axe there, but I'd have been more happy for GA Mania / a GA "SOR Remake"

Oh yeah I wonder if they’ll revive sega rally sometime down the line. That’d be fun.

Have you played Streets of Rage 4, by Dotemu? Because you'd be completely wrong.

I'm expecting Shinobi and Jet Set Radio to be good, and the rest meh.

Streets of Rage 4 was meh. Then again Streets of Rage 3 by Sega was average too.

Series peaked at 2 and honestly going full 3d is a mistake.

I enjoyed the last Streets of Rage, maybe it was Nostalgia taking over.

So did I on my first play through cause of the nostalgia.

Once the dust settled it is actually pretty average with recycled material from the previous games.

Streets of Rage 4 had the best gameplay in any SoR game. 3 was poor, sure.

I got over 40h in it.

Was it better?

My issue was the lack of originality and recycling of some enemies from previous games.

Game relied too much on nostalgia and lacked the soul of SOR1 and SOR2.

I think the soundtrack could have been better.
