Sega reveals new development studio structure - True Red 7/30/03
Details on studio mergers and name changes have been released.
Sega has revealed the structure and names of its development studios after its planned reorganization. Under Sega's new studio structure, there will be seven development studios--Hitmaker, Sonic Team, Amusement Vision, Smilebit, Sega-AM2, Wow Works and a new studio named Cinematic Online Games.
Sega Rosso (Sega Rally, NASCAR arcade) will be merged and absorbed into Hitmaker (Virtual On, Crazy Taxi) , and United Game Artists (Rez, Space Channel 5) will be merged and absorbed into Sonic Team (Sonic the Hedgehog, Phantasy Star Online). Smilebit (Jet Set Radio) and Amusement Vision (F-Zero AX, Super Monkey Ball) will not be merging as previously reported, but a part of Smilebit's operations will be transferred to Amusement Vision. Sega-AM2 (Virtua Fighter series, Shenmue series) will stay intact without any changes. Overworks (Shinobi, Sakura Wars) will merge into Wow Entertainment (House of the Dead, Vampire Night) and Wow entertainment will change its studio name to Wow Works. A new company tentatively named Cinematic Online Games will be established. Cinematic Online Games's president will be Yu Suzuki, and 50 employees are scheduled to be present at the studio launch planned for October 1.
Paperwork for the merger will be signed on August 18 and given approval in the stockholders meeting on August 19. The mergers are scheduled to take place later on October 1.

Sega will release more specific details on the studios at a later date.

Sonic the Comic Online #225 - Ed 7/16/03
Sonic: The Beginning Trade Paperback is Out - True Red 7/16/03
Archie's Sonic The Hedgehog: The Beginning trade paperback is on sale in comic shops starting today. It's a re-print of the original Sonic mini-series, Sonic #0-3, with a forward by Michael Gallagher. I don't have the original mini-series but it seems unlike Sonic Firsts, which changed the coloring of the characters to their "modern" forms, this is completely faithful to the original stories. Since this has been asked a few times on the message board, if you are a subscriber, you will not get this issue unless you buy it separately from a store (or when--going by their usual history--Archie offers it in the Sonic comic itself). It is not part of a subscription.

I just recieved the new Mario & Zelda DVD. On The Mario DVD, it contains "Sonic Tonic" and on the Zelda DVD it contains "To Catch a Queen" & "Wedding Bell Blues" (I seen these episodes and they did a quick transfer to the point they didnt fix the problems with the episodes but still watchable)
As for the new Sonic Underground DVD, it hasnt been released yet but the boxart of it is on the back of both dvds. What episodes, i dont know but all i know is the Title of the DVD, "Sonic Underground - Dr. Robotnik's Revenge". *sigh* I wish for SATAM instead :/ |
