Jun Senoue, famed composer of many a Sonic game, has confirmed he will be performing on the SEGA stage of the Tokyo Game Show on Sunday September 18th. Jun will be performing alone and is planning an interesting playlist.
“I need to think about the songs to play there and I know it will be a great opportunity to play some from Generations.”
In other news, Jun has also confirmed that the 2 Sonic Generations CDs we discovered artwork for are in fact Japanese pre-order items for anyone pre-ordering either the PS3/360 or 3DS versions.
“They are sort of giveaway CDs. I will work on the soundtrack CD of Sonic Generations later.”
That last comment seems to indicate that Jun is arranging a proper Generations soundtrack CD for a later release. More on this as we get it!
Check out the below gameplay footage of SEGA’s recently announced Rhythm Phantom Thief R: Inheritance of the Emperor Napoleon; a rhythm game for the 3DS:
Fansite The Sonic Scene has uncovered some interesting Sonic Generations images.
Japanese PS3 and 360 pack-shots have been discovered along with 2 covers for ‘white’ and ‘blue’ editions of the original soundtrack.
Also featured is a new 3DS screenshot showing the famous Emerald Coast whale chase! There’s also a shot from the opening cutscene from the PS3/360 versions (SPOILERS).
The ridiculously titled Rhythm Phantom Thief R: Inheritance of the Emperor Napoleon (what a mouthful) that was announced earlier today now has screenshots. Andriasang released a set of screens giving us the first insight into this game’s graphical style.
We’re still on the fence regarding this 3DS title. The graphics are a little poor and we’re getting a distinct whiff of the ‘meh’ PS2 Shinobi, but gameplay trailers have looked quite fun. Come on SEGA, don’t muck this one up! We don’t want to see the Shinobi series go the way of the dodo!
SEGA have just uploaded some new screenshots to their Flickr set for Sonic Generations. The 2 new stages that are heavily featured are Seaside Hill from Sonic Heroes and Spagonia’s Rooftop Run from Sonic Unleashed.
SEGA of Japan have revealed they’re developing a new IP for a 3DS rhythm game. The game is literally translated from Japanese to English as “Rhythm Phantom Thief R: Inheritance of the Emperor Napoleon”. Catchy.
The game will mash up rhythm gaming with adventure elements. You play as Phantom Thief R who wanders Paris with his dog Fondue, stealing treasure from historical landmarks like Notre-Dame and The Louvre. The rhythm part of the game kicks in when you are sneaking into these landmarks to steal their treasure. Tilt controls have also been confirmed.
The game will get a proper announcement next week and Famitsu are reporting that the game is half-finished at this time.
