Sega Pledges to Not Make More Crappy Games From Classic IPs

[Orcus The Ultimate]

So does that mean their games were crappy on purpose?

 

[GonzoGamer]

I would settle for them not sandbagging their few good Japanese games that they send to the US.
What they did to Yakuza 3 is more unforgivable than what they did to Sonic. That was actually a good game to begin with; while you can pretty much assume that any new sonic game will be crap.

I'm sorry Mr. Sega person, but there are a good many old games that need some attempt at modernizing. Even if only one in ten become a good game, that's still one good game we can play. Now, just as a suggestion, lets try;

-Road Rash (RR 1-3 style, the later one simply titled "Road Rash" again SUCKED. I want cool bikes, weapons, and to be able to beat the cop with his own billy-club!)

I assume you've seen this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvHz2u-33Y4]? *sigh* If only it were a real game.

Anyway, not really surprising they'd say this, I mean what else would they say, "We're planning on milking these franchises with as many games as quickly as possible!"?

Now, just as a suggestion, lets try;

-Battletoads
-Zero Wing

Sir, I agree with your choices.

[sub]Can you imagine what 4chan will do with Gamestop if Battletoads actually came out?[/sub]

be made of glorious win and justice?

also, here's hoping!

Dude, Streets of Rage?

Awesome!

That's exactly what I thought. Hehe A totally new SoR would be great, though I don't know what form I'd prefer it take. A totally new SoR with an expanded storyline and gameworld could be very cool, but so would a PSN/Live downloadable title that strips it down to what worked so well in SoR1&2 (just with HD sprites and animation). Either way, however, Yuzo Koshiro would NEED to do the music.

thats good now bring phantasy star portable 2 to NA.

 

[shadoworc01]

Um... SEGA? I want some more Earthworm Jim. I need a fill of R-Type. Let's see some Phantasy Star. I don't want you to stop making games from Classic IPs.

Hummumabah...
Huh, muhubamamah.

[HEADING=2][font color=black]WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST SEE, AND WHEN CAN I PLAY IT?![/font][/HEADING]

Unfortunately, unless EA sees it and decides to go with the idea, never, *sob*

 

[Programmed_For_Damage]

STREETS OF F*$KING RAGE 4! I have been demanding this for over a decade! SoR2 is my favorite game - period. I bought it when it was first released and still crack it out on occasions.

 

[TsunamiWombat]

As long as they make it as crazy as the original Streets of Rage, complete with bazooka police trucks.

 

[BlumiereBleck]

HA! Good luck sega

 

[WorldCritic]

Wait, Streets of Rage... FUCKING AWESOME! Finally the love is back.

 

[TheDoctor455]

Okay... here's the impression I'm getting from this story:

SEGA: Hi, my name is SEGA, and I'm a remake-aholic.

JUST ABOUT EVERY OTHER VIDEO GAME PUBLISHER: Hi, Sega.

 

[MDSnowman]

Yes, the first step is admitting you have a problem.

I'm going to throw this out there, more Valkyria Chronicles games.

 

[Flight]

Streets of Rage was awesome. While I don't like many Sega games these days, I hope they can turn that around.

 

[rembrandtqeinstein]

Yes please streets of rage, and yes on 2d sonic downloadable....make it so...

Oh and look at Bionic Commando Re-Armed.....that is respecting your classic to the point of putting it on a pedestal and sacrificing orphans to it. We wants more!

 

[Insideout Ink Demon]

what does "IP" stabd for? I see it alot in these forums.

 

[Vern]

They need a new Echo the Dolphin, with a fully 3D explorable ocean. And Echo needs to have rocket launchers attached to his fins, and his blowhole needs to have a mountable .50 machinegun. Although I would absolutely settle for a new 3D Chakan game, that was like God of War but. I think Chakan could pull it off. A warrior who killed death and was cursed to walk the Earth forever while wielding dual swords. I think a good 3D game could be made.

 

[Sixties Spidey]

Good luck with that. Honestly I don't see them approaching more than two steps without failing miserably anyway. Fire all of Sonic team, and make an entire game about Sonic running along one continuous track that circumnavigates the entire world.
