Sega expands the list of PS2 titles to be shown at TGS, adding three previously unannounced games to the list.

Today Sega of Japan added to the list of PlayStation 2 titles to be shown at the Tokyo Game Show later this month, and there were a few surprises. The new games are Sakura Taisen 4, Super Monkey Ball, and Jet Set Radio Future, which appear to be ports of the Dreamcast, GameCube, and Xbox titles, respectively.

The new list also highlights the new Space Channel 5 title. Though we\'ve heard reports of its existence, we still do not know if it will be a port of the DC original (perhaps with extra features) or an entirely new game. The updated official list of PS2 games to be shown now reads:

Virtua Fighter 4
Crazy Taxi
New Space Channel/Space Channel 5
Guru Guru Onsen 2
Jet Set Radio Future
Rez
Sakura Taisen 4
Super Monkey Ball

Details on each title should emerge in the coming weeks as Sega prepares for what will likely be their most important trade show ever.



Like I said before JSR:F is coming to ps2 as well as monkey ball.

DOA3 would be nice on ps2 wouldn\'t it?  One problem how close you think it would be to the xbox version?  Its polygon count is 4x as much as doa2hardcore.  So I wonder if ps2 could even do it?:thepimp: :thepimp: :thepimp:

It should be no surprise.  I expected Sega would expand their list.  Also, Sega has 5 or so unannounced games for xbox.  I willing to bet it includes Crazy Taxi and VF4.  Sega needs money and more games = more money.

And suddenly the games that I was going to buy an xbox for start appearing on ps2, yeah good news I\'ll rethink my xbox purchase

But it makes sense for sega to do it, JSR wasn\'t a big commercial hit in any way, in fact it was one of the games that had the most underwhelming sales of 2000 (I think the game deserves better:)). Sega isn\'t going to do such a flop again so they moved it to ps2, and with ps2 massive userbase they cannot go wrong ;)

Strange, DirectXBOX immediately posts in a thread with a rumor of this, but when it confirms he acts like he hasn\'t seen it.

SEGA games on PS2.. what more could a gamer want? :thepimp:

I had a good laugh at the Teamxbox forums where Rasalant posted the same exact thread (again ;) )

Of course their response was

Oh OH! The ps2 can\'t handle the textures, with its limited VRAM..

And one guy said that the ps2 can\'t handle cel shading, and said that Fur Fighters got a 6/10 so it must be crap.. (eh?)

:laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Jet Set Radio! I have been really wanting to play a game where you can deface property with spray paint and not get in trouble for it. I actually used to do it before in real life, but I was caught :(.  Also.. where in the hell is Shenmue?!?!?!

Good thing for MS that it still has Peter Molyneaux exclusive, I will still be getting an X-Box because the games will still come out for it first,t hen later when they rig them up to work on PS2 right :p

I kid, I kid.

:)

It will be interesting how good JSR:F looks compared to the X-Box version.

I agree with you man, but you just know the textures will be better on Xbox, and I\'m sure the Xbox verison will make it out before the PS2 one does anyway.  Project Ego is losing its steam.  At least I think it is, hmm who knows maybe MS will allow some more screens, or movies out later on. Whens the game due out? 2003?

Project Ego is sounding cool as ever in my mind. They had some new screens for it on DailyRadar UK about a month ago, they were low-rez, and that is being positive, although you could tell it still looked great.

I am pretty sure though that the X-Box games will beout first, ports later.
