SEGA will announce multiple Sony exclusives next Thursday

Drew Bergmark of Original-Gamer.com: SEGA, according to a Japanese teaser page, will announce not one game as has been reported by the English games media but multiple games. As I was studying the teaser webpage's coding, I came across some Japanese characters in the source code: "株式会社セガによる、新タイトルが発表!3月28日 に全貌が明らかに". Roughly according to Google Translate, it says...

Valkyria Chronicles and Yakuza 5 please!

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4045d ago

Wow!! Sony going hard early!! WiiU still trying to get 3rd party interested. smh.

silenius4044d ago

I wish to see a sequel of Vanquish and most importantly of Condemned 3!!!!!
Please Sega publish them...

Yi-Long4044d ago (Edited 4044d ago )

... Streets of Rage 4 (2D sprite-based gorgeous HD), and a new Shinobi please. Hopefully also 2D and sprite-based.

Oh, and a next-gen 3D free-roaming ECCO could be absolutely amazing as well.

PeaSFor4044d ago

Winter is coming. and also the PS4!

that said, give me a Valkyria Chronicles collection on PsVita and i would bow in front of a sega logo EVERYDAYS.

da_2pacalypse4044d ago

I'm so glad that Sony is still interested in appealing to the gamers. I'm so tired of M$ trying to appeal to non-gamers... I hope PS4 destroys the next xbox in sales.

iNFAMOUZ14044d ago

uh no.
microsoft is the new king, get used to it.

DonFreezer4044d ago

Delusional PS drones like you should have been banned from gaming years now. Because Sony has the financial wealth to PAY developers so that they release games to the ps consoles Nintendo has a problem and is in trouble?Shouldn't we as gamers demand a fair share of support for all the platforms?Nintendo has proven a worthy competitor to the PS brand and if Nintendo starts releasing their Mario , Zeldas and Xenoblades Sony is for sure doomed.So stop it with you pro Sony remarks.

kingfetish174044d ago

Skies of Arcadia HD Remake & Skies of Arcadia 2 for PS3/PS4!!!

DonFreezer4043d ago (Edited 4043d ago )

13 disagress?How butthurt could you ps drones be?Because Sony pays developers it's Microsoft that abandons gamers? Stop complaining about Microsoft.It's their choise to not fund and buy exclusives get over it.It's at least delusional to think that Sony gets their gamers out of good will and everyother company pays for them.
Is Microsoft's fault that Japanese developers do not want to release games on their console?And why is it that when they do get the games you accuse them of paychecks and of byuing out games?

If it's Yakuza 5 coming to the west I will literally explode in my pants.

EZMickey4044d ago

You literally don't understand the meaning of the word "literally". :P

despair4044d ago

I "literally" died reading this comment.

*sent from my Galaxy Note II in hell*

MrDead4044d ago

@FreddyAintDead

I'll send you a picture of the result when I get the game, then you can decide if I know the meaning.

ThanatosDMC4044d ago

Same. Kiryu will be the most badass taxi driver owning race cars with a crappy taxi cab.

AS at helm we know Sony means business

Sega is doing any exclusives
Ready at dawn a 2nd party working n next gen for Sony
QD another 2nd party doing playstation only
Insominac has 3 teams one for playstation so maybe a new ratchet or new IP?

And on top of that every Sony owned studio is working on playstation 4 exclusives

Yakuza 5 for west
Yakuza HD collection for west
Shenmur HD collection please? And maybe 3rd?

MS you better not talk about kinect at launch for more than 10-15 minutes we need games and a lot of games and no crappy kinect titles don't count as games

xursz4045d ago

Probably not as high caliber but I guess its worth mentioning Acquire (developer of Tenchu and Way of the Samurai series) is also working on their psvita exclusive dungeon crawler rpg, Mind Zero. It's probably japan-only though at the moment.

showtimefolks4045d ago

I meant to say KAS at the Helm

sinncross4045d ago

this is why you should not use google translate to make news.

タイトル - translates to TITLE. It does not translate to titleS.

There is nothing in that Japanese which states there are multiple titles being announced.

Knushwood Butt4044d ago

Japanese doesn't have plurals, so, 'taitoru', could mean just one, or several games.

sinncross4044d ago

That would be correct if the word's origin was Japanese.

taitoru is not since its a loan word from the English 'title' and not 'titles'

I have no problem there being multiple games, I just think that making what is most likely incorrect news lacks journalistic integrity especially since the author himself does not even speak Japanese: he merely used a quick translation tool that is not even accurate most of the time.

hesido4044d ago

I love Japanese!

Taitoru :=) Title, it makes so much sense :)

Sweet Engrish!

GenericNameHere4044d ago

If it said たくさん新タイトル, then I would say "Titles". But for now, 新タイトル just means "New Title", so I'd go with just one new game... Which is still pretty good! :D
An exclusive for the PS4... I hope it gets a lot of exclusive games from 3rd-party devs again, just like during the PS1-2 days!

Knushwood Butt4044d ago

Sure, it's ambiguous, but I still disagree. Take this Famistsu article for example:

マーベラスAQLのPSP配信中タイトル15本が本日より半額 キャンペーンを開始

http://www.famitsu.com/news...

They clearly mention 15 downloadable games, but still use the word タイトル

kupomogli4045d ago (Edited 4045d ago )

Seeing as it's a Japanese teaser page, they wouldn't be mentioning Yakuza 5, especially since they've already received it.

It'd look kind of weird wouldn't it?

Sega: We're announcing Yakuza 5 for the west.
Japanese: Da fuq? We care about this why?

Diver4044d ago

You the man wishing. Valkyria an Yakuza 5. Sure hope for some x platform action.

Gothdom4044d ago

Yakuza 5 AND 1&2HD please!

Ranma14044d ago (Edited 4044d ago )

Skies or Arcadia
Valkyria Chronicles
A good Shining series game
or
Phantasy Star console game.

I hope J-devs make up for the jrpg drought this gen.

mav8054044d ago

I'd love to see a next generation Shining Force sequel to I, II, and III. I think they could make some really great games if they stopped making spin-offs and releasing only in Japan :(

Donnieboi4044d ago

My wife would flip out if valkyria 4 came to ps3 or ps4. It was her first strategy game (I prefer normal jrpg's though). Now she's hooked on Valkyria 2 for our Vita. Maybe I can get my Vita back if she's busy playing a new Valkyria on a different platform lol.

Valkyria Chronicles 4, Yakuza 6, and Sonic 2006 remake!

SOD_Delta4045d ago

Valkryia Chronicles 4 alone for PS3 or PS4 would make me happy as funk.

Bumpmapping4045d ago

Hell yea Playstation 4 Life!

GABRIEL10304044d ago

oh man¡ Valkyria Chronicles 4.....:)

imXify4045d ago (Edited 4045d ago )

No Sonic 2006 remake. Sonic Colors 2 or Sonic Generations 2 will do the trick ! :D

retro__4045d ago

you completely missed the whole point of sonic generations if you think they'd make a sequel any time soon. that goes to all the morons that keep saying sonic generations 2.

Snookies124045d ago

@retro__ - Why call them morons. I suppose I'm one of those morons then. Sonic Generations was the best Sonic game in years, so naturally I want another game like it... I don't care if it is an "anniversary" thing.

imXify4045d ago

@retro. The concept of Sonic Colors and Generations was just perfect. No need for a sequel but as long as they keep that concept I'm okay with it.

trenso14044d ago

Colors no generations yes but wouldn't happen much rather see adventure 3

Dude the music in Sonic 2006 is the best SEGA soundtrack EVER! Too bad the game was one of the buggiest ever. It was so badly coded that it makes Deep Silver and Bethesda's coders look good.

AmayaAi4045d ago

Some people will always get excited even before anything is officially announced.

Godchild10204045d ago

And there will always be one person to be a party pooper.

Godmars2904045d ago

At least this will be multiple announcements instead of just one.

LOGICWINS4045d ago

I think her point is that people are excited about being excited.

SymphonicRain4044d ago

It's like Square's "announcement" at the PS4 event. Please be excited.

gta28004045d ago

What's wrong with that? You sound like a straight Debbie Downer lol.

Sega sells Relic and will cut 240 jobs across UK studios

GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.

The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."

Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.

just_looken21d ago

It was that garbage coh 3 that did them in only a special team can make a sequel worse in every way even though it was a 10 year gap and the same era.

gold_drake21d ago

I hope they find new jobs in the industry soon.

Jingsing21d ago

Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol

SEGA’s Switch Predecessor: What Happened to the Nomad?

Sega had such a turbulent existence from the mid-90s to when they dropped out of console manufacturing entirely in 2001, it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of the Genesis Nomad.
