Another look at all three demo tracks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JVKMbUOQN0.

I have a bit more footage than that but most of the cool stuff is shown
The original game is heavily discounted at the moment on Steam, just for today:
store.steampowered.com/app/34190/
Note that PC version inexplicably doesn’t have online multiplayer.
The sequel will have that on PC too though.
Here’s a nice little demonstration of some of the levels and controls:
Not just Shelcoof and the blue dragon?

[quote]Update: Watch the Summer of Sonic video here, footage begins at 1:17:40, there is also a Q&A with Sumo Digital at 0:27:30
Summer of Sonic is in full swing, and Steve Lycett of Sumo Digital took the main stage to talk about Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed. The big reveal of Steve?s presentation was that NiGHTS will feature in the game as both a racer and a track. Sonic Wrecks tweeted a few details, stating that the game will have both NiGHTS and Reala, NiGHTS rival, as racers driven by a Pian (those little chubby angels). ?] no word on if the NiGHTS and Reala racers take up two roster slots or if they?ll be considered alternate skins of the same racer. ?]
A few more details on NiGHTS and Reala as well as the track. The track features a number of locations from the game, as players teleport from area to area. In the footage, fans have spotted Spring Valley which is the first segment, followed by Mystic Forest, and then Splash Garden. The track, fittingly, is mostly flight segments, however Splash Garden is a boating segment. NiGHTS and Reala are separate racers, and NiGHTS and Reala themselves are the vehicles. NiGHTS is driven by a Nightopian and Reala is driven by a Nightmaren who appeared riding the Goodles enemy in NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams.[/quote]
All things considered, it?s quite a month for NiGHTS fans!
This game keeps getting better and better! Now all I need to see is a Skies of Arcadia track and I will be in heaven! 
Here’s a new trailer that I think the Panzer Dragoon fans will find quite interesting, have a look:

Maybe it’s wishful thinking but to see Panzer Dragoon get so much attention in this trailer seems unusual for a “simple” cameo. I have to wonder if Sega has anything else planned for the franchise…
Not to be pessimistic, but we may be seeing lots of footage of Dragon Canyon because that’s the track the Sega has already revealed. By not showing so much of the other tracks, there’s more surprises left for fans.
It would be cool if they made the dragon a vehicle, perhaps with Azel or one of the other riders as the driver. They could switch between running Lagi and flying Lagi from episode 2 of Zwei when the vehicle transforms. Not sure what they would do for the water sections though.
Here is some more gameplay footage! This game is going to be so fun!

?We should totally do a soundtrack CD, or at least made it downloadable?
?We?ve had the guys in Japan update the old analogue music and send it digitally to us.?
Some of the characters do have new voices. But most will have re-used clips due to the size of the cast list.Sonic Stadium cliffnotes from a recent interview:
Man this sounds really good. The only reason i?m only getting this after a price drop is because i already spent a ton of money on Ni No Kuni preorder
[quote=“Solo Wing”]Some music samples from the game:
destructoid.com/exclusive-so … 5342.phtml
No Panzer music though.[/quote]
Don?t like the OutRun bay sample, i hate dubstep. Lets just hope they don?t screw the Panzer Dragoon soundtrack with that.
The other two sample were nice, especially Golden Axe, i just got a rush of Nostalgia, off i go to play some GA on my genesis xD
That Outrun remix does sound terrible, but the others are good though. I don’t think we have to worry about the Panzer Dragoon remix, some of the earlier videos already already had the remix playing in the background, it seems to be faithful to the original:

Another classic Saturn game track has been included, if the Gamefaqs member in question is to be believed:

I guess I’ll reluctantly be preordering the XBox360 Limited Edition. I’d much rather have gotten the PC version, but there’s no indication of when that’s going to be released. The low price is a good thing of course. If that new track is indeed accurate, I’m really looking forward to seeing it (and hearing the remix).
To be honest, the 360 version is probably better for local multiplayer. Steam’s setup isn’t very user friendly - your Steam account has to be signed in to play your copy of the game. But what if you have several friends around who want to play together (but you’re not playing)? They have to use your account, messing up your achievements, leaderboards and other progress you’ve made in the game. Valve need to up their game in this area.
Mighty Ape has the PC version listed with the release date of 7th of December. No idea if it’s accurate: mightyape.co.nz/product/PC-G … /20889814/
