Busy, busy week for all of us here in the SEGA community, so I want to wrap things up before heading out for the weekend.

First things first — don’t miss Clumsy’s post below about the Hulk site going live.  He (and a lot of other people) worked hard on that site and it looks great, so please drop by and take a look at how the game is coming along.

Secondly, Viking: Battle For Asgard is now in stores.  I got to play the beta version for a while here in the office on a (gasp!) non-high-def TV, and was left wanting a lot more from the visuals — not because of the game, but because of the television.  I’m looking forward to firing up my retail copy at home this weekend on my 50″ HDTV, and lopping off some heads.

Also, Universe At War has shipped for the Xbox 360.  Ultimately, 360 gamers will be able to match up against PC gamers on this title, but that functionality is still coming in a title update that will hit Xbox LIVE servers in the middle of next month.  If you’re an RTS fan, you should definitely give this game a look.

With March coming to an end, many of our recent titles are now out the door, and it’s time to take a look at what’s coming up.  Two big projects I’ve been working on include:

* Happy Tree Friends: False Alarm:  Our media lab has just completed production on the first video interview I shot with the HTF creators several weeks ago and I will be releasing that to the community next week.  This will be the first appearance of SegaDawg’s ugly mug in a video podcast, so be nice.  Watch this space for the video URL at some point in the next seven days.

* Space Siege: Similarly, we’re doing production on some Space Siege footage and our first interview video, complete with gameplay footage, is about ready to go.  This title is shipping this summer, and in the coming weeks we’ll have a lot more info on it, including a new section of the website, more screens, and video podcasts and other footage.

On a more personal note, with Friday afternoon here, I’m looking forward to the weekend.  Aside from playing some Viking, I’ll probably catch some of the NCAA basketball action and watch the next episode of the John Adams series on HBO Sunday night.  I also have to swing by the store and pick up the new album by Counting Crows… just to name-drop, I actually got to visit them in the studio last year, chat with a couple of the band guys and watch Adam (the lead singer) and the producer piece together one of his vocal tracks.  Hard to believe it was almost a year ago and the album is only coming out now.

(Hears chorus of “Gee, SegaDawg, you’re sooooooooo cool.” Yes, yes, I know.)

Have a great weekend, all!

Our Incredible Hulk website is now live! The site shows off some great art from the game and has some info about the upcoming game. Be sure to check back for updated content releases.

I’m pretty stoked on how the site came together, this is the second full micro-site I’ve worked on following the change over from game master to community, and it’s been a lot of fun. Micro-sites are a whole new animal, and very different from working on the Phantasy Star Universe and PSOBB websites. I’d love to get your feedback on what you like, what you don’t, and what you’d like to see!
