  2. Alan Wake, winner of E3 2005 Game of the Show award, will be announced as an exclusive title at this years E3 press briefing.

     

    Rumours have been rife about the hotly anticipated Alan Wake being snapped up by a big publisher since developer Remedy lost Take 2 as a publishing partner. It seems Microsoft have seen the potential in Alan Wake and have snapped up the rights to Remedy's third person adventure.

     

    According to sources the announcement is expected at the Microsoft E3 conference on wednesday, now we love surprises but we felt we had to let you guys know as this is just massive.

     

    Expect much more during E3!

     

    Yay, 360 1 - 0 PS3

    May 8, 2006 - Sega announced today the formation of Prope, an independent studio headed up by former Sonic Team master, and current head of Sega's software development as a whole, Yuji Naka. Prope, which has 10% of its initial ten million yen in funding provided by Sega, will begin operations on June 1. The studio's goal is to explore new forms of entertainment and build new worldwide intellectual properties.

     

     

    The establishment of Prope is actually the first step in a new independent developer support program from Sega. As part of this program, Sega will be establishing independent development companies from its current development staff.

    Sega actually dabbled in independent developer subsidiaries years ago. During the Genesis and Saturn eras, Sega housed a group of R&D (research and development) divisions, with such well-known names as AM2, Sonic Team and AM3. During the Dreamcast era, the company split off its R&D divisions into subsidiaries, and while Sonic Team and AM2 kept their names, new studios like Smilebit, Overworks and Amusement Vision were born. Years later, as Sammy took over, Sega absorbed the studios back into its fold, merging teams under a new development structure.

     

    While not on the same scale, it appears that Sega is reverting to its Dreamcast-era development structure.

     

    Sega plans on pushing this program step-by-step, targeting developers with a proven track record. The program's goals are to push the creative talents of developers and build relationships with development companies.

     

    As for Prope, the company has set up a Japanese website which has the following English introduction:

     

     

    "PROPE" (pronounced "pro-pe") is a Latin word which means "beside" and "near" future.

    We named our company PROPE in the hopes of bringing game entertainment much closer to users, establishing closer ties between users and us, and creating near future entertainment.

     

     

     

     

    The new development studio has yet to make specific game announcements.

     

     

    Well thats kind of boosted up the hope of Shenmue III being made I guess. Also because of the timing of this announcement, surely they'll announce/reveal games at E3?!

  4. Did you get one of those "I Was There" T-Shirts? I saw everyone wearing one on Sky Sports and it looked nice, what with them being red & white et al.

    Yeah I did :hehe:

    I also bought (from a stall) a 'road to Paris' T-shirt with all the logos of the clubs we've played on the way etc. I shall wear that there most likely.

  5. OMFG I CAN'T WAIT!!!

    Shame I have to spend most of this afternoon/evening revising for my french oral and then doing it tommorow morning. Once its over though and I come home i'm going to be insanely excited.

     

    Nintendo has launched a Revolution ad accross the street from the Kodak Theatre:

  6. I've just got back and lets just say thats one of the greatest days of football I've ever had. Not only because of the way the results turned out, but because of the emotional 'party' after the game. When that countdown stopped and fireworks went off and I looked around realising it was my last time EVER at highbury, I had tears in my eyes. Memories came flooding back.

    Incredible.

  7. I've done so much speculating about it over the least year or so that I'm no longer going to even bother, what with E3 so close now. I'm just going to keep quiet and see what happens :smile:

    All I'm saying though is 3D is without a doubt likely in my eyes.
