So....Sega fans have been waiting, and waiting, and what the heck, waiting some more for a sequal to NiGHTS. Rumor after rumor after rumor came by for NiGHTS 2...and here's another one!

So what do you think? Is it the real deal? Is it a joke? Or could it mean Saturn games are coming to the Virtual Console, and NiGHTS will be the first? I'll be excited for option 1 and 3...but if it's 2 I won't be held responsible for my actions....

What is NIGHTs ? And why the crazy hype about it, never heard of the game before I started posting here.


My better is better than your better.

Another game by Yuji Naka and Sonic Team when they were in it's prime. It was released on the Sega Saturn, and is probably one of the greatest games for that system. It's now pretty much considered a classic Sega game.

For more see the wiki.

It's kinda sad how Sonic Team was at it's prime during the Saturn and Dreamcast--the Saturn had the badass mascot (Segata Sanshiro~), while the Dreamcast had the online access and games (PSO anyone?). But now, the games that made these systems great are being clung onto by Sega, whilest they hope that those games won't let them down.

Sadly, they have. PSO for the Dreamcast? Meet PSO for the GameCube, XBOX, and PSU for the PS2 and 360. Sonic Adventure? Meet Sonic Adventure DX, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, Shadow the Hedgehog, and Sonic Heroes for the Gamecube. By desperately clinging to the best games, they wore 'em out.

Our favorite games died a horrible death, and deserved to be remembered in a better way; like Elvis. It would be nice if we could remember him at his prime, but we reminisce about him and his big, fat, hairy, king of rock-and-roll ass in a tight leotard, with his pants around his ankles, sitting on top of a toilet he practically voided his bowels in.

Let's just hope they don't do the same with Samba De Amigo, NiGHTS, and Burning Rangers. I pray that I can continue remembering them in a good way.

If sega can manage not to drop the ball with NiGHTS than I will gladly welcome a sequel.

I'll admit, I'm a little worried...

But if they screw up NiGHTs 2, all of Sonic Team should be nothing short of fired.

Both from their jobs, and out of a cannon.



ProTip: To damage your credibility, simply call any of the Phantasy Star games "massively-multiplayer."

Sega has lost its touch. They've released a plethora of crappy games since they became a 3rd party game developing studio, so no... I'm not really looking forward to many of their games.

If they make a sequel to Nights, it'll probably be another average platformer that lacks innovation.

If they do make one, let's hope I'm wrong.

Never really thought that game was too fun when I played it. Tried it once randomly going through my Uncle's games, found it pretty lame and boring. Years later, here I am on the internet, and it's one of those games that people like to say they love, because it's obscure and makes them feel cooler.

Pretty lame game though, but I guess a sequel could be OK?

Since when has any 3D platformer been anything more then average?

Platformers are platformers. Fun but average.

[sarcasm]Yes, I say I love NiGHTS to be cool. Now I don't get picked last in kickball.[/sarcasm]

Another topic I might as well bring up, anyone know what the deal is with Yugi Naka's new studio, Prope I think it's called? It's indipendant from Sega, but they haven't announced any games yet.
