Why would anyone want Sega to make a new next gen console when they suck so bad now? Their games are shit, and all the developers that made the company what it used to be are gone.

The awesome Sega of the '80s and '90s is dead and buried. Don't try to dig it up, it will just smell bad.

What's the point of this? Just pick up the Sega Mega Drive Ultimate Collection on PS3/360. You can get it for like, £15 new these days in Tesco, it's got 40+ games on it including all the MD Sonic games (regretably not Sonic CD) plus 2 player Streets of Rage trilogy. A much better and cheaper option.

It's be cool to see a true new contender I think. Those all in one remakes aren't that good, much better to use an emulator.

Its funny my friend has an external hard drive the exact shape as that thing and looks almost identical except for the big light. On another note I bought a dreamcast from a thrift store today for $5! came with a controller, blue memory card, and it was made before oct. 2000 so it reads burned games without the utopia disk.

 

[Giga_Gaia]

Wait, are they serious? Why haven't they understood that everything they touch turns to ****.

The dreamcast was an epic failure and they haven't even made a good Sonic game since Sonic Adventure 2. Hell, they can't even port a game like Bayonetta.

Seriously, why can't they just die already, the gaming community may be better without them.

A sonic game that wasn't crap would be good. Sonic Adventure series and original rush were ok. Comeon SEGA, give us a good 3D sonic!

So Basically a portable saturn? Great idea there (not). Good for homebrew though.

You got a Dreamcast that cheap? Damn...the last time I saw a Dreamcast being sold anywhere near me, it was over in some retro specialist store in Birmingham, which has since shut down thanks to the 'credit crunch', which is immensely annoying as it was my store of choice for acquiring rare Super Nintendo games. It had both Sonic Adventures, the original Shenmue, Crazy Taxi I think, Soul Calibur and a VMU, plus of course all the cables and it was in mint condition. And they wanted £150 for it. Naturally I didn't buy it, I happen to have more sense than money as opposed to whoever it was that eventually bought it. Good job finding a bargain. The Dreamcast is a pretty good system which doesn't deserve a lot of the hate it gets. Yeah, it's no PS2, but it's certainly worth a look.

The 2D sonic were good. Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 were good (the gamecube remakes even better).

Then, it turned to hell when they released Sonic Heroes. Sonic the Hedgehog on PS3/360 was .... horrible. Sonic Unleashed isn't as bad as people think it is. I didn't like the werehog part, but the hedgehog part ... now that was something.

Then all the sonic spinoffs games, like Shadow the Hedgehog, the games on PSP and DS (except Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure whichw ere good) and all those stupid annoying sonic racing games are really horrible and deserve to be erased from the time-space continuum.

Then there are other games SEGA makes or publish. Have you seen how they ported Bayonetta? PlatinumGames gave them the code to port it to PS3, but instead, we ended up with a game full of loading time. Hell, each time you paused the freaking game, it loaded for 4-5 seconds. This kind of thing doesn't happen by accident, it had to be coded in the game intentionally.

Which means someone at SEGA was like: Lets make the people playing the PS3 version annoyed by putting load times everywhere. Then, the executives, who obviously are just a retarded bunch of idiots, agreed to it. Then, the final result was so horrible, that recently, Sony made and released a patch themselves. No offense, but a monkey or a scarecrow put in a meeting room could run SEGA better then those imbeciles.

I agree. Sonic Adventure games were good. I really liked the Hedgehog portions of Sonic Unleashed, I still play them every once in a while.

I feel like I'm the only one who liked Sonic Heroes.

Shadow the Hedgehog. Oh, I remember that pile of crap. WHERE'S THAT DAMN 4TH CHAOS EMERALD!?

They released an update for installs for Bayonetta, so loading times aren't as bad now.

 

[pcmanrules]

I completed Sonic Heroes on the PC. i got it dirt cheap at EB's. Better than Sonic Unleashed for PS3 any day. Actual speed.

 

[juggernaut911]

Crappy arcade made to look like Wii? No thanks.

 

[luke_c]

Holy Shi- Dreamcast 2?! No? Some Wii ripoff?!?
WHERES MY DAMN DREAMCAST 2 FFFFFUUUUUU SEGA FFFFFUUUUU

 

[shito]

i think it will be another of those plug'n play things.

 

[mariomaniac33]

Aww man... I almost thought that this would turn into another epic battle between Nintendo and Sega. I would rather have Sega in the big three instead of Sony, no offense to Sony fans out there.

If only...

 

[Lubbo]

O.o

i wet myself
