"SEGA Europe’s community team are all known for their generous interactions with fans and constant delivery of fresh information about all the latest SEGA releases through a wide variety of different outlets. Regularly communicating through Twitter and their Facebook page, their own official Blog and Flickr account, and even making a flesh and blood appearance at the London MCM Expo in October of this year, and now they have issued a small Christmas greeting to their fans across the continent."

Madworld wasn't a huge success in the West, so Platinum Games are trying a little harder for the game's release in Japan. At the Great Harvest Festival 2009-2010 event, the makers were seen promoting the game with Japanese bikini model Konan, who was dressed in a ridiculously pointy bondage-esque costume that is apparently worn by one of the characters in the game. Konan also demoed the game, which must have been quite a feat in that outfit, saying that it was "connected to my own movements a...

Well, Nintendo has done such a great job of showing their support for hardcore titles on THEIR OWN PLATFORM that we keep hearing things like, "Oh, I sold my Wii already."

Especially after this year's E3, right?

A lot of people who've been holding on to their Wii consoles have been wondering if publishers will continue churning out Mature Wii games, given that none so far have broken sales records. However, Gary Dunn of SEGA Europe has confirmed that they do plan to continue supportin...

Posted by RubyEclipse on Sega of America's official blog, Sega has announced that it will bring four titles to the upcoming New York Comic-Con from February 6th to 8th in New York City. All four of these titles will be playable on the floor, and all a part of their upcoming lineup of games in 2009. They are:

  • MadWorld
  • The House of the Dead: Overkill

Also, Phantasy Star memorabilia will be given out at the event, celebrating the upcoming releases of bot...

Rumors have been floating around the 'net that Sega's controversial title Madworld may be banned in certain countries due to it's excessive violence and gore.
Media watchdog group mediawatch-UK were all for the banning, claiming that they "believe it will spoil the family fun image of the Wii" if the game is released.

Well, gamers weren't too happy with Mediawatch-UK's views, and they were soon bombarded with hundreds of angry emails diagreeing with their point of view. Unfortunately, t...

By now, we've all heard of MadWorld. It's the rare violent and bloody game that is releasing exclusively for the Wii, but the Action game may be a little too gory. Sega - the publisher - isn't sure whether MadWorld will release in Japan - which has recently banned Dead Space - or other countries and will not be shown at the TSG 2008.

Platinum Games, comprised of veterans from Capcom and Clover Studios, just rolled out videos for Bayonetta, a Devil May Cry type shooter, and MadWorld before their TGS release.

MadWorld

The Nintendo Wii is vastly regarded as a lighthearted and fun, family oriented console. The new 'over-the-top' hack 'n' slash game, MadWorld, may be about to complete blow that image out of the water. From impaling terrorists on street signs to rampaging with chainsaws, death and destruction is the clear focus in this title - definitely one to steer clear of for those who play Wii sports with the kids at BBQs.

From the laughable British magazine the Daily Mail comes another new gem, this time targeting its sights on the upcoming ultraviolent Platinum Games Wii game, MadWorld. The point of contention is that it is one of the most violent games ever making its way to the 'family-friendly' Wii.

MadWorld is one of the four games from PlatinumGames's publishing deal with Sega. The game stars Jack, who is stuck in the confines of Varrigan City, forced to participate in the do-or-die death show, Deat...

Siliconera had the chance to talk to Christopher Kaminski, who is the Associate Producer at Sega about the development of Mad World, which is being developed by PlatinumGames. Kaminski answers questions about the inspiration for the design of MadWorld, how interactive the enemies will be, and a lot more!

IGN sat down with Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's Executive Vice President of sales and marketing, who is also the annoying lady that spoke at the E3 2008 Press Conference, and she answered questions about why Nintendo seemed to focus on casual games at E3, why they didn't show off more hardcore games at E3, and if Nintendo will be at the Tokyo Game Show, as well as other shows. To read the full interview, hit the link.

Game designers haven't been too happy with the abundance of casual games in the industry lately. Kojima thinks hardcore gamers are being forgotten and Suda 51 was disappointed with the lack of interest that Wii-owners had towards his 'hardcore' games.

And now, three of Capcom's ex-developers are also sick of seeing so many uninteresting and casual games manage to get onto consoles (especially Nintendo consoles). Their studio - Platinum Games - wants to create a bunch of good-quality, matu...
