I wonder if this has anything to do with Generations selling like sh*t...

Also, this would be a pretty good time to revive some old favourites, like f*cking Jet Set Radio? Remember them?

Jet Set Radio is already getting a re-release at this point... if it sells well, then..
Well.

SEGA's popular IP's...

Aliens, Sonic, Yakuza, Super Monkey Ball, Total War, Phantasy Star, Virtua Fighter, Virtua Tennis, House of the Dead and Football Manager?
Conduit and After Burner maybe?
oh, and Hatsune Miku ofcourse.


well, atleast there wont be any more of Alpha Protocol.

'Cause this is a popular IP. SEGA's Sports Games are far from bad. People actually buy these.
And SEGA wouldnt cancel something that late in development anyway, it would only cause even more losses.
The only game which i know of that has been victim of this is Bayonetta 2.

Huh, I thought Bayonetta sold well enough to get a sequel...

Then again, I thought KoAR sold well enough to make 38 Studios not disband...

Question is, how much of the money went to EA.
On the other hand, they had two games in production w/o a publisher backing it - their own fault, really.
