SEGA says: Meet us at The Club, it's goin' down...

There's no more originality in the genre. I mean, "meet me at the mall, it's goin' down"? How about my knee meets your groin? That would at least make you sing with a little bit of tone sensitivity. Anyway, rants about annoying radio station's programming aside, SEGA has finally let slip some new info about their third-person action shooter, The Club.

To quote WorthPlaying, "The Club mixes the best elements from action shooters with arcade accessibility, the pace of racing games and a story structure based on fighting games." Which, if you like any of the above genres, is a tough link to make in your mind. So, it's twitch-kill, fast-paced, and a large cast of characters fighting in a tournament of sorts for personal causes? Yep, that really about sums it up. You could call it a third-person fighting game. Which is cool enough, especially with the added features of online play and the always welcome split screen.

While not many gameplay details are explained, there's a pretty long narrative about the game itself -- backstory, story, frontstory, sidestory... just a lot of bits and pieces of the game's universe revealed. It's an interesting read and we really couldn't do a better job telling you about it, so check it out!
