Still, why that isn't Sega's release list for the next two years is beyond me.

Well, a big part of the reason Sega's so fuckin' cool is because they put out lots of original content to go along with some sequels and rehashes. If that list were true, it'd be 90% sequels, 10% (if that) original games. This is the knida shit that people around here like to bash Nintendo about, but when it seems like Sega's about to do it, everyone forgets why they love Sega in the first place, and go absolutely nuts. It's actually pretty funny.

Not me, man. I love sequels. I'm the guy who thought Street Fighter II Turbo was a necessary upgrade. I'm the guy who can tell you the exact differences between King of Fighters 96, 97 and 98. I buy NBA 2K every frickin' year just for the rosters and a few new post moves. I think it's cool that Silent Hill 2, Onimusha and MGS 2 are all seeing improved ports, even if only slightly. If I love a game and I want more of it, I love the thought that more is on the way, shinier than ever. Sure, plenty of sequels don't work out, but you don't have to buy them, and it doesn't make the previous game worse.

Sega, Nintendo and Capcom make great games, and anyone who'd complain about more Jet Set, Zelda, or Street Fighter is nuts. they're still doing original games too, it's just harder to get excited about them until you've played them (who really knew how great Jet Set was gonna be?).

Not to mention sega seem to make more games than nintendo period. (It's easy for companies like nintendo for example, to be original, under all that secrecy and time given between titles. Not to mention the sliding release dates and delays) I am a huge nintendo fan but I also respect sega just as much if not more. As much as I love waiting 4 years for my sequels (and I know that time is going to great use when it is in competent hands) I also want something to play every year or every 2 years of the gamefranchises of which I am a big fan of.

I'm also a fan of original stuff and can't pimp the games enough to my friends. For exmaple Super Monkey Ball (an original game if there ever was one - if a little influenced by the classic marble madness) was the sole reason I bought my Gamecube, not any of the first gen nintendo or other third party stuff out at the time. (eg luigi's mansions and waverace was more a rental for me) Whenever someone asks me about which game to get for GC as thier first game, I point them towards this little gem and can't stress enough how addicting it is. They don't believe me, so then I bother to show them, and they become a convert. Anyway lay off sega, they've obviously got enough fans to cater to that they must have thier hands full as it is. (Super Monkey Ball 2 for example )

But also in agreement with Strider, as much as I want original stuff as the next jaded gamer, sequels are fine if those developers really seek to improve on thier already-great games. (bit worried about that Crazi Taxi franchise though)

I'm well informed. It's shit. Enough said.

I know you have at least some taste Rob, because you do like the Genesis and Rocket Knight afterall
To each his own, and to you, not Xbox I guess.

Preach on, brother. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

christ dude you've got a fucking bad attitude on too much. I don't know what the hell you've stuck up your ass.

The list seems somewhat made up. Mysteria (Riglord Saga) was'nt exactly a big seller for Sega. I loved the game though. Sega GT is'nt 2002 it's 2003, maybe that was a typo. Tempo would be a great game for the GBA, but I could'nt see it as a legit game for the consoles. Did'nt Peter Moore scoff at Streets of Rage, as a legitimate game for 3-d gaming? Not like he's the guy making the games though. Where's Nights!!! Maybe the GBA version via PSO is a hint of Nights coming to GBA.
