NiGHTS is looking better and better all the time
At this point, we can only assume that the earliest shots of Sega's NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams were maybe a little too early. The game looked rough and flat, but these days? NiGHTS is looking better than ever. But that wasn't the only issue with the revival of the classic; after recent reports from TGS, reviewers complained of slow framerate and a lack of motion controls. Well, folks, we've got what may be good news: it looks like there's a chance for everything to go our way with this latest NiGHTS.
Retailers stealthily changed the date on the title, and it looks to have been pushed back to just before Christmas. We can only hope that will give Sega a chance to work on the framerate issue. As for the motion controls, Graham at Sega Nerds demanded the right to test the motion controls at TGS and reported that they really weren't anything special. In fact, he says the other mode -- which more closely resembles the original Saturn controls -- was better. So maybe those will be fixed as well ... and if not, well, that's okay. We can do our androgynous fly-bys retro-style.
We've updated the gallery below with some of the new screens, and we'll tell you that they are definitely worth a peek. If this is how much NiGHTS has improved recently, we can't wait to see it at release!
