This is a cool looking game. Genki is working on Maximum Chase for a Jap. release, but I hope that someone brings it stateside. Here’s the story according to Gamespot:

(The Player assumes) the role of a Los Angeles police inspector named Rick. One day, a mysterious beautiful girl suddenly enters his car asking for his help. The game makes use of both car chases and shooter elements as players protect the girl from the armed gangsters who are after her.

Looks a bit like Driver, with more varied terrain and locations. Screenies are available at Gamespot here and here.

While I’m not 100% happy about him deciding to return, it is good to see stuff like this again.

Long live “His Airness”…

Get Stomped

October 3rd, 2001 No comments

I went and watched Stomp last nite for about the 5th time and again I wasn’t disappointed. A few new numbers including basketballs (similar to the one in their HBO special ‘Stomp Out Loud’) and another with water bottles from water coolers. A lot of people went in not knowing what to expect and I could tell they were ‘Wowed’ before they finished their usual sweeping intro. If you get a chance, I would highly recommend chekcing them out. They have a few permanant performances, and their US tour dates can be found on their site.
