Sega reveals Night of the Werehog
Posted by Graham. Filed under G, News, Sonic, Video. Tagged with Night of the Werehog, Short Film, Sonic Unleashed, Teaser, Trailer.
Above is a rather intruiging teaser for Sonic: Night of the Werehog. No this isn’t a new game, it is in fact a short CGI movie that is due to be released this November, to coincide with Sonic Unleashed’s launch window.
The teaser states “Full Movie Coming November 2008″ but it has been confirmed by Sega that “Full Movie” might not be totally accurate, rather a “Full Short Movie” is coming - but saying that sounds kind of silly.
The movie is said to be between 10-15 mins long (so very short), and I would assume that it will be shown online, though Sega has not confirmed this.

Alpha Protocol teaser trailer

Sega has released a nice little teaser for the upcoming spy RPG, Alpha Protocol. The trailer is pretty short, only features CGI visuals and doesn’t give much of the game away, but it is a pretty decent teaser for the game.

TGS 08: Bayonetta teaser, with gameplay
Posted by Graham. Filed under G, Japan, Microsoft Xbox 360, News, Sony PlayStation 3, Video. Tagged with Bayonetta, Gameplay, Platinum Games, Teaser, TGS 08.
We saw the pre-TGS teaser for Bayonetta a few days ago, now it is time for the proper TGS teaser. This video is very different from the other one, and pretty cool.
The first part is all FMV with some very saucy crotch shots of our heroine - well sex sells, I guess. The second part of the trailer shows some actual gameplay footage.
At first I wasn’t so impressed, it looks good, and fast - but kind of looked like a standard 3rd person action game. Then you got to see some cool ‘environmental kills’ and something that looked like an awesome boss battle, plus a glimpse at some of Bayonetta’s magic at the very end. Very cool.

MADWORLD TGS teaser
Posted by Graham. Filed under G, Japan, News, Nintendo Wii, Video. Tagged with Gameplay, MadWorld, Platinum Games, Teaser, Trailer.
Next up with the TGS 08 teasers is MADWORLD. We have seen a fair amount of video footage of the game, but it’s always nice to see such gratuitous violence on Nintendo’s ‘kiddie box’ (hmm sounds illegal).
It’s good to see that the game is shaping up well, and despite being only three colours, it is a very good looking game.

Bayonetta gameplay teaser
Posted by Graham. Filed under G, Japan, Microsoft Xbox 360, News, Sony PlayStation 3, Video. Tagged with Bayonetta, Gameplay, Platinum Games, Teaser.
Just to give everyone a lovely appetiser of things to come at this years TGS, Sega has sent out a DVD, in the latest Famitsu magazine, with a few teasers for their upcoming games.
Bayonetta is up first, and this is the first in-game footage I think we have seen so far, so it is pretty exciting. Ok, not a lot happens in this teaser, but the games visuals are looking pretty decent, and I’m definitely interested to see more.
I’d also like to know if Bayonetta was a model before she decided to go off killing angels, because surely no normal action girl walks with a wiggle like that!

Sega teases us with new RPG [updated]
Posted by George. Filed under George, Japan. Tagged with RPG, Teaser.
What with TGS being around the corner, Sega has decided to start dangling games around and making our mouths water. This time they put up a teaser on their official site.
Some of the credits listed
- Kodama Rieko (Skies of Arcadia) - Producer
- Yuzo Koshiro (Shenmue/Shinobi) - Sound Composer
- Kazuya Niinou (World Destruction) - Director
After it all loads you can click on the middle flower, turning the music into 8-bit music. Then the flowers move around and that image (the one posted above) is shown.
[Updated] Aliens Colonial Marines teaser trailer
Posted by Graham. Filed under G, Microsoft Xbox 360, News, PC, Sony PlayStation 3, Video. Tagged with Gearbox, Teaser, Trailer.
[Update: It seems that Sega/Gearbox were none too happy about someone leaking their Aliens teaser trailer, and have taken it down. Well quite rightly so really. It was naughty of that person to record it - but at least we were able to show some of you the trailer before it was removed]Â
Apparently guests at the Gearbox party, in Dallas last week, were treated to early plays of Samba De Amigo, Brothers in Arms: Hell’s Highway, listening to the lyrical genius of DJ Jazzy Jeff (hey, he was great in the Fresh Prince!), plus they were shown a teaser trailer for Aliens Colonial Marines.
According to Kotaku this trailer is similar (or the same) to one shown on the run up to E3 this year, so there is a chance some of you might have seen it. However, for those that haven’t… well just look above and it’s there for you.
Unfortunately the video was taken directly at the Gearbox party - so the quality isn’t the best.Â
Even though it looks like FMV from the game, it still looks pretty cool to me. The trailer certainly seems to convey some of the atmosphere from the movies. Let’s just hope the rest of the game can do the same!
