So we can all agree that Sega is pretty much dead other than VF, right?

Srsly, what did they give us this gen?  VF, a bunch of DC rehashes and that's about it.  MS should buy the VF team, would be fuck awesome.

It's more like Sega just sucks apart from their arcade division.  Virtua Fighter 5, Outrun 2 SP, Virtua Tennis 3, and Afterburner Climax all kick ass.  It's most of their home stuff that sucks, Sonic in particular, which apart from Sonic Rush last year has just become absolute shit.  They still have bright spots with home games like Monkeyball (although that started in arcades) and Phantasy Star Universe (kinda).  I played a bit of Yakuza and wasn't really impressed.

They need to get back to more arcade-style games for the home system (good ones, not crap like Sega Rally 2006), and do some good ports.  VF5 and VT3 already look to be perfect, so that's all good, but where's Afterburner?  How about Quest Of D?  It's an arcade dungeon crawler that looks pretty cool.  Why don't they try these games at home?

What did they do this gen? DC was this gen.

Also, Yakuza, Panzer Dragoon Orta were pretty good games.

Lyte Edge: How much is a little bit of Yakuza?

I dunno...maybe a halfhour or so.  The thing is, I tried it right after playing THE PS2 action game, Godhand, so of course it was going to be bleh in comparison.

Well, Yakuza is the type of game where it gets better as time progresses because half way through you unlock a bunch of battle abilities, making battles even more fun.

It's not really the type of game you can give an hour of time to and then come up with a conclusion, especially since the first hour or so is pretty meh.

They should just change their name to VF Team and be done with it. Im tired of the letdowns.

Yeah...I don't want to play a game that starts to get good HALFWAY THROUGH.  What kind of crap is that?  I can just play Godhand instead, which is awesome right from the start.  Yup.
