Ollie King is an arcade game in development by Amusement Vision. It's a very stylistic skateboarding game. It bears a strong resemblance to Jet Set Radio -- remember that in the Sega shuffle, the non-sports half of Smilebit was folded into AV, so that explains it.
Here is the official website for it, where you can see about the game and download some stuff. Be warned, the website is entirely in Flash. It's also mostly in Japanese.
If you're wondering what arcade hardware this will be on, that seems to be a mystery. Different reputable sources have reported Naomi 2 or Chihiro.
Unfortunately, no console port has been announced, and with Sammy's "concentrate on arcades" strategy, I'd be surprised if we got one. That said, look for it in arcades early next year!
Bush said that the governor "and I share a lot in common."
"We both married above ourselves," Bush said. "We both have trouble with the English language. We both have big biceps."
"Well," he deadpanned, "two out of three ain't bad." |
