A site about games and game paraphernalia and how nothing's as good as we remember it, probably because we used to inhabit a FANTASY WORLD.

"Dream demon returns"
Drömdemon is not a made-up word, because it's actually two legitimate words without a space between. This happens a lot in scandinavian languages.
Which is actually a spot-on translation.

I had Nights on the Saturn, wasn't it a bit shit? Nice graphics as I remember but very on-rails gameplay as I remember. We all just pretended to like it more than we really did cos we all spent a fortune on the new controller you needed to play it.
A new Ratchet & Clank you say? Lord knows the gaming world has been crying out for one.

I did some digging and it turns out it's an ACTUAL game!!! Here are some screenshots:

Don't gang up on me. I speak the truth. You all know it. It's the old Sega we love. The present day Sega is all about hockey management sims and wank RTS games.
I do hope I'm proven wrong though.

Is your post meant to be ironic? Or are you a thick twat? I can't decide.
How?
Nights was designed to take advantage of an Analog stick, and that's the best possibly method of playing it that I can think of.
The Wii has an analog stick, but so does every console in the last three generations.
Using the remote would be like pointing a mouse, and having the NiGHTS character chase it, rather than actually controlling him yourself.
Which sounds trivial, but something that integral has a big effect on the overall game.
If only I had enough faith in Sega's non AM2 developers to not completly cock this up.
It's obvious, this will play like Super Mario Galaxy, controlling NiGHTS with the analog stick, and pointing at obstructions with the Wiimote, it's gonna be awesome.

Billy: I suggest you re-read your awful post again before you question anyone else's intelligence.
Apparently, Nights is being developed in America by the USA division of Sonic Team. This means that it's bound to be good doesn't it? I bet they give Nights and Reala machine guns, and they have to skateboard around the levels occasionally wrestling each other to the ground whilst rap music blares out.
If lyris explained his comments, maybe i'd have understood, i'm not a mind reader!
Why did'nt you and lyris just give the links 1st and say 'read this' dont you think that's a bit irish?
How can I be expected to know everthing on the internet? SEGA USA are making it? all i've read so far is that the original japanese designer is'nt involved because he left SEGA.
I agree if it's not at least being made in japan, then you can already expect a dip in the quality. I'm on your side there! I just remember the good old days.
Are you some kind of mole that's been planted here to infuriate me? It certainly seems so.
Why the hell would you need Lyris to explain his comment?
It's a question!
It said are you an American?
Why would you need to be a mind reader to understand this?
I'll re-phrase the question so it's easier for you to understand:
Are you?.....were you born?....No. It's no good. There is no easier way of asking that question. It's written in plain English. Even an idiot could understand it.
Good day to you sir, you have indeed set me off.
I'll have to beat the missus again now to vent off some steam.
The lyris 'Billy Morris, are you American?' comment, was followed by your comments stating that I must be, because i'd missed the point.
BUT at this point I had'nt known NiGHTS 2 was getting made by SEGA USA, like I said, I only read the original designer was'nt involved up to that point, assuming of course that it would be made by the rest of the team in japan.
I definately agree with you about SEGA USA probably adding guns and skateboards lol, this describes half the PS catalogue i.e.GTA.
You've got me worried about it being in safe hands, so I got what you and lyris meant in the end. Although some of my faith in SEGA has been restored since the Sonic revamps, I dont know if Japan was behind this though.
Are you, or are you not American?
I fail to see what this has to do with the original subject, it reads like 'Are you american ..because(insert insult here)', obviously i'm not taking that bate. I'm just trying to get ppl to explain the relevance.
I was going to respond with simply..why? but that looks like i'm messing about.
I commend you saphion for standing up the overbearing sony employee.
I'd sooner have SEGA replace Sony anyday. I was one of those fools which bought a PS1 when they 1st came out, and my mate had a Saturn with NiGHTs, COTA,FIGHTERS MEGAMIX, VIRTUA COP 2, ATHLETE KINGS, ETC. Its funny how retrospectively I hold them all up with affection, as oppose to just remembering Tekken and Crash Bandicoot. After that I 'resisted' the PS2 and got a Dreamcast, which is still awesome!
