Sega gives PS2 scraps.

Don\'t you all think that the PS2 has drawn the short straw in terms of the Sega "lets all develop for all consoles" attitude?

I mean PS2 has the following games coming its way.

Crazy Taxi - No improvement over DC.
18 Wheeler - Come on that ain\'t going to be great.
Zombie Revenge - Average Game.
Virtua Fighter 4 - It turned naff at 3, most people will buy Tekken 4.


Gamecube

Phantasy Star Online - Nuff Said would swap that one game for all 4 of the above.

X-Box

Jet Grind Radio Future - Again I would swap this for all 4 of the above.


GBA

Chu Chu Rocket - Pretty fun game.
Sonic game - Again would swap all of the above PS2 titles.


Its like Sega want to develop for all machines but they are developing decent games for all consoles accept PS2 where there just doing some port overs of old, and worst of all average dreamcast titles, that includes Virtua Fighter, as VF3 is poor - but VF1 / 2 were good on the saturn but thats not DC.

I think Phantasy Star ONline is coming out on PS2 later this year.

Correct me if I\'m wrong, but the NGC doesn\'t have online plans.  The NGC can have it\'s four-player split-screen PSO.  I have never been interested in Jet Grind Radio, and probably wouldn\'t buy it even if it came onto the PS2.

The only two games I really want from Sega are VF4 and a new Sonic.  It\'s getting one of those, so I\'m happy.

Really i dont like barely any of the sega games so im not mad but alot of people love PSO and i heard that is coming to the PS2, so atleast some will be happy campers

Oh well its not too bad then.

Prehaps im being a bit harsh.

Although I do want JGR:Future.

The answer for any true Sega fan is simple.

Buy all consoles.

Virtua Fighter went down on no. 3? are you nuts, you must be out of your skull. Because Sega is still innovating, but all I saw from Namco was the same old Tekken with slightly better graphics and more secret characters. Gimme a break, learn about the greatest fighting series ever before sputing out stupid crap like that.

PSO is great, but worn out. Acclaim is did Crazy Taxi and Zombie Revenge, not Sega. 18 Wheeler is a fun game, you just gotta let go of the fact that you are driving a big rig.

Besides, PS2 is also getting Space CHannel 5:2 and K-Project which will make use of a propietary controller.

I heard alittle while ago that sega is developing more games for ps2,i think headhunter might be going to ps2 also 355,and ecco.
Dont right off sega they want to make money,and also hurt companys like EA,who dissed them,i think they will produce the good for PS2,just give it some time.

Nope just my opinions.

I hated Tekken when playing both Virtua Fighter 1 and 2. So I definatly understand the series. However Virtua Fighter 2 was a bit of a shock when only two new characters were added. It turned out OK in the end as the series really had been improved. Then virtua fighter 3, one new character, not many more moves and just better graphics. It felt more like a update.

Anyway it would be nice for you to show a little repect towards my opinions. After all i\'ve never called you "nuts", "out of your skull" and claimed that your "sputing out stupid crap". When you can\'t even have a discussion without trying to get across your point with belittling phrases, it just makes your opinion seem all the more ill informed and worthless.

As for the other games, I wouldn\'t really know I ain\'t played any of them except crazy taxi. PSO should be decent, but 18 Wheeler, a truckers game, I can\'t see that being worth £40. Space channel 5 is just dumb.

Anyway before you decide to blurt off another posts worth of well thought up phrases please remember they are just my opinions.

X-Box and Nintendo (both GBA and NGC) do seem to be getting the better Sega games.

All of those att this point are rumors. I say this not diss PS2\'s support by Sega, but it\'s not nice to have less knowledgable people skim what you said, and expect those games.

That\'s funny, I don\'t remeber seeing any "better graphics" or "more secret characters."  All I\'ve seen are character portraits of some of the players that will be in the game.  Maybe I missed something, or maybe you are just sticking up for your precious VF series by making Tekken 4 look bad. (Don\'t get me wrong though, I want VF4 too.)

Ethugg i got this info from the OFFICAL PS2 MAG here in the uk,it has the biggest reader base of any magazine here,so i think that my little post isnt,as bad as all the readers reading it from an offical mag,and you shouldnt skim,you should take your time.

Also in i thread i used the words "heard"and "might"if you get confirmed from these words then,there is something wrong with you.

The way gaming news takes its turns im holding my breath. Although even with these rumoured games its not much better. Echo got average reviews, headhunter looks quite good, erm whats 355 ? Is that the racing game with Ferari\'s (SP?) ?

PSM had a big interview with Sega America and although they did not confirm anything they mentioned that Sega had quite a few PS2 project in the works

as of right now though no Sega game announced for the PS2 is interesting me yet

except Gradia 2

they did announce this for the pS2 didn\'t they or was that GC ??????

Yep. Grandia was announced for the PS2.
