From a French website, and it looks like it might be legit. Three different themes, and they all look very cool. Here's an awesome translation of the article from Babelfish:

Quote:Perhaps... Perhaps not... Have circulated for several hours on the Web an address which makes some dribble more one: http://www.neuronsyndicate.com/ But what is this thus that this site? Nothing less than that a realizer of packaging DVD. It is responsible, amongst other things, the Alien anthology recently left. And its homepage announces well ahead 3 packaging for the future exit of the OT in DVD! Its three packagings have a name:

Quote:As you can notice it, one changes whole with the whole compared to the prelogical DVD, with in particular a resumption of the packaging of the Special Edition of 1997. However, the two others are new, and my rather superb faith! It now will be necessary to wait before a possible confirmation, however. Do not hesitate with you ballader over their site in order to make you a much better idea of its visual. Thank you in Dalsk for the screens.
EDICT (3h15, French hour): It would seem that the site of the realizer does not have any more the images... for a reason still unknown.

Quote:Hopefully you caught some of the information and pictures that came out about Resident Evil 4 and Killer 7 last week, as you'll be excited to know that there are now precise release dates for both titles in the U.S. Capcom will release Killer 7 on September 14th and Resident Evil 4 on November 16th. The titles could give a tremendous boost to GameCube over the 2004 holiday season, particularly for those looking for more grown-up, quality titles. We'll keep on eye on them.

Quote:UPDATE: In a phone conversation with Mika Kelly, a Public Relations Manager with Namco Hometek, it has been confirmed to Nintendophiles that SRS is indeed coming to the Nintendo GameCube.

Nintendophiles can also now confirm the official name for the title. First known as Street Racing Syndicate, it will now be marketed as SRS, a slight but subtle change.

We at Nintendophiles wish to apologize for posting incorrect information, but we simply posted the information that was given to us from Namco’s PR representation. It seems that SRS’ GameCube release caused much confusion for those involved.

Expect more on SRS on Nintendophiles as it reaches closer to release.

Original Post:
Despite an update of screenshots for the game that you may have seen in the morning on our site, Ahmed Abowath (PR Director) has since informed all of us other staff members of something we didn’t previously know: Namco’s Street Racing Syndicate is no longer coming to GCN.

"SRS will be available for PS2 and Xbox, not the GameCube" says a Namco representative. Well, it doesn’t get much clearer than that. We regret getting everyone’s hopes up that did see the article. Rest assured that this was a new development and we got caught off guard.

Street Racing Syndicate is similar to Need for Speed: Underground with a heavy focus on the culture of illegal racing. Namco purchased the title from 3DO last year. It takes place across three cities including Philadelphia, Miami and Los Angeles. It will be released on PS2 and Xbox in Q3 2004.

We don’t have any reason to pass along about why the game isn’t coming to GameCube (3DO was working on it for GCN) and it’s unfortunate to see since Nintendo and Namco have been closely working together recently.

Quote:In the midst of touting 007: Everything or Nothing, Electronic Arts made a few mentions about a "top secret" Goldeneye 2 game that is in development. The news came from EA's President, John Riccitiello. "We are developing GoldenEye 2 (working title), a game where players become the ultimate villain in the Bond universe." Goldeneye 2 will be an adventure about the dark side of the 007 underworld. The main character is an agent who was going to join the MI6 but was dismissed for reckless brutality. He has since joined ranks with the super-villain Auric Goldfinger to gain control of the world's greatest criminal organization.

Some have been expecting this new Goldeneye to be the sequel to the fantasticly-popular Goldeneye 007 for Nintendo 64. Of course, it won't be handled by the same people as the original, as Rare now only develops for Xbox. It won't even be handled by Free Radical, the development team that split from some of former Rare employees and is now working with EA. Instead, EA's new Los Angeles studio will develop the title.

There's a lot of remaining questions about whether this truly is a sequel to the N64 hit, but we'll see what it's about at E3. Goldeneye 2 is for multiple consoles (not all?) and will be released during the 2004 Holiday season. They haven't specifically said GameCube will be getting it, but that'd be a travesty for sequel to the N64 game not to.

Who's seeing the Dawn of the Dead remake when it comes out? It certainly looks diffrent then the original. Completely opposite of the 89 Night of the Living Dead remake which was almost just a colorised version of the original. I am concerned that people will associate it with the crap that is The House of the Dead...Really hope that doesn't affect its success. Could hurt the chances of Dusk of the Dead....
