Sega has plans to promote the upcoming 15th anniversary of their mech gameVirtual On. One of the biggest is a promotion for the Xbox 360 version ofVirtual On Force, which is due for release on December 22nd in Japan. They’re going big. Life-sized big. But it’s not as grand as what was done withGundam recently in Japan.
Instead of a life-sized statue, we’re getting a life-sized…poster. The rather large Sega’s GiGO building in the Akihabara district of Tokyo will be plastered with a big poster ofVirtual On‘s Temjin 747A Virtualoid mech, saysAndria Sang. While that will be big andkind ofimpressive, it will be disappointing with its 2D-ness, especially with that awesome Gundam mech that stood over Odaiba still fresh on the minds of gamers.
