Streets of Rage fan remake crushed

[KingVamp]

Actually until now I didn't know about this.

It pretty fun.

it's like the Babara Streisand effect.

GOOGLE IT.

SQUARE-ENIX basically waited until they were done with the game CRIMSON ECHOES before making any official announcements.

I believe the term for this is the "anti-corporate prick strategy." B3



Fixed.

It's just a fan game, why take it down?

cause they are probably going to steal the work, rehash it sell the game under SEGA and take away the extra characters and sell them as DLC.



so....

F#*K you.

canning thisis only going to gain more attention to people like me :

who didn't KNOW that there was a SoR remake...but is going to download it and PLAY it just to spite SEGA.

So Sega can fucking eat my s*#t

Completely changing the intention and topic of a quote isn't fixing anything. Raging about something completely in their rights to do is slightly odd, especially considering it will have nearly no bearing at all on your ability to get and play the game. Posting download links to something in an article specifically talking about how it's being taken down by the company isn't very bright. Completely unneeded spacing between every single line you type is obnoxious and looks terrible.

dudes need to release it anyway.

Anti-Sega thoughts rush into my head as I play this piece of indie awesomeness.

No one likes you Sega. You became a douchebag company when you thought you could 1-up the clearly superior Super Nintendo Entertainment System by saying you had "Blast Processing"

so in short, they won't completely "crush" it.

it's out there...you just have to look hard enough...

in the end..this stunt will only gain more attention to would be downloaders.

people that are smart enough and witty about the scene will find it.

it just won't be avaliable to the noobs who don't know how to look...which isn't many

it's all about EGO. it's about being crushed by a bunch of freeware indie developers can outdo a million dollar companies work...


but I have to give Sega one thing of credit.

Thanks for letting me know this game exists you stupid son of a b#*ch

 

[twiztidsinz]

Thanks SEGA.

Had this game been released, I most likely wouldn't have downloaded it... possibly wouldn't have even noticed/cared about it's release. But because you made a big to-do about it, I have to download it and play.

lucky they didn't do it when it was still in beta.

Sega and Square need to take a page out of Nintendo's play book you didnt see them shutting down the Mother 3 translation did you? Not to mention i hear no legal action against the fan made Mother 4

Fuck you SEGA!

 

[weiHe]

HAHA....it wasnt that hard to find.

Thanks for telling me about it SEGA.

 

[shakirmoledina]

sega seems to be following the sony methods. Intellectual property yes but if u are not doing anything, why stop others? its logical not law-based.

 

[CyborGamer]

Don't be too hard on Sega peeps. What they're doing is almost an obligatory response to proper fan made games. They could've stopped this long before it was finished, yet they didn't. You know why? Because they WANT it to be out there, they WANT the final product to be floating around. That's what I'd like to believe anyway lol

uh no.


why would they want that?...

a bunch of zero budget "losers" outdoing them?..

I don't think so...

maybe they couldn't say anything until the "infringing product was tangible"..which means..they could actually see it finished.

 

[Rayder]

I don't care what Sega wants or thinks, I DL'd this game the day after it was released.

ppft..I don't care what any company thinks..I fight the "powers that be" ..perhaps a little too much.

hehe...that's why i kinda got in trouble here

i'm a bit of a rebel per say

I don't like "higher powers" saying No to me..especially my corrupt government...which is why I root for GeoHot, LiquidZGong and all the other people that decided to give authority the fat finger

BUT ON TOPIC - Sega can eat it. This game is AWESOME

all the characters from all the streets of rage series in ONE GAME!?

 

[CyborGamer]

uh no.

Could be, could be. Though I don't think that's the case with your last point, as seen with Crimson Echoes and Chrono Resurrection, both weren't even close to being finished yet were shut down so quickly. There's a three year gap (or more?) between the last version (v4.1b) and now the final version (v5) of SORR. Years of gap, yet when v5 was released, it gets taken down in less than a week? I find that a bit too spontaneous. Could Sega have really been oblivious to this game until the final product?

As for the merit of letting these indie developers to release the game... well, who knows? Maybe they actually do care about the fans. Maybe they really were completely ignorant fan game in making. I prefer the former as the answer.

This is my exact feelings

 

[twiztidsinz]

uh no.

Just because they're not paid doesn't mean they're "losers".
In fact, I would say BECAUSE they're not paid, they have the potential to do a better job. It's their passion that is driving them, not their paycheck.

has absolutely NOTHING to do with it.

Oh thank you thank you thank you SEGA, if it weren't for your "legal" action, I would've never heard about this game (and I LOVE Streets Of Rage series), finding the game online wasn't difficult, took barely 30 seconds.

Time to get busy xD
