Darn, some game companies and publishers are having some rough time lately. Well, everyone is having one, due to this craaaazy economy.
Well... fuck. That sucks to hear. Things just keep getting worse for this company.
Jet set radio is still coming out, right? Right?

I'm going to guess that's the nail in th coffin for any hope I had of a Valkyria Chronicles 3 localization.
Maybe if they hadn't shit all over Alpha Protocol in development, the sequel would still be making money for them now. Bad business practices=Bad Business.
I must be the fault of that damn piracy. There should be some Digital Right Management type of thing that restricts how much games are pirated
I may be an ass to think of this, but I say this may be a good thing for the industry and most big time studios should just cut back. I say this knowing that my favorite games from Sega are not listed as "strong IPs" which makes me a sad panda.
I don't see why they'd cancel JSR. It's basically done.
And Anarchy Reigns is produced by a company that's done really well for Sega, so that's probably safe too. Stuff that's cancelled is probably stuff we don't know of/early in production.

Sega seems like it has been circling the drain for years. I wouldn't be surprised if they went exclusively arcade.
Sega used to be one of my favorite companies, but they just aren't as good as they used to be. Sonic is at least headed in the right direction lol
I'd say Yakuza 5 and jsrHD are safe too. Any furthur entries though... Shit sucks. Colonial Marines better fucking come out too.
Fuck, Sega has been putting out some good games lately, this is just wrong.
The last Sega news I heard was the rumor about an HD Shenmue being finished last year but not released. Strange times indeed.

Sega are the only company that still manage to pleasantly surprise me sometimes, I hope they’re not hit too hard.
And I really hope whatever Platinum has planned down the line doesn’t suffer.

Minus the fact that Sonic is one, if not their best seller and the games haven't been total ass since 2006.

Just when I was starting to gain more confidence in Sega as a game company... I really hope they see that their increase in quality of titles will mean to increase in sales, but maybe the production costs are way too much? It's been 10 years since they scaled back and I think they've grown as a developer, but they seem to need to grow even more (as far as a company goes, obviously not in size since they are reducing)

Well, besides Alien: Colonial Marines, I'm not particularly looking forward to any of their games.
If Alpha Protocol 2 were being made? I'd be all over that without a doubt. But they botched that my sticking their head into development when they should have let Obsidian do their thing.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO DON'T DESTROY MY CHANCES OF PLAYING MY FAVOURITE GAME FROM MY CHILDHOOD IN SUPER SHINY HD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I doubt they will cancel it. Can't be too costly to simply port it and up the resolution and then sell it, right?

None of their upcoming lineup really strikes me as something I gotta have. I think it could be a good thing if they scale back a bit and focus on producing fewer, better titles.
This sucks Sega has put out alot of quality stuff lately. I hope this hasn't impacted the release of Rhythm Thief & the Emperor’s Treasure or JSR HD. I guess this squashes any hope of Valkyria Chronicles III or Project Mirai/Project Diva ever being localized.
This is really upsetting Sega has alot of IPs that I really like, I have a feeling that some game series I like are going to get abandoned. Damnit, Sega is one of the last companies making quality music titles, and I think those music games may not hit the west anymore because muisc games don't do to good here unless they have licensed music.
thank god this has nothing to do with japan, that branch is actually pulling its own weight.........
with yakuza 5, a new shining, a new valkyria , a new phantasy star I will be fine with this new kind of sega

just hire Platinum Games as well as a collaboration with Overworks to make the game please!!!!
and new sequels like Jet Set Radio 3, New Panzer Dragoon,Skies of Arcadia 2, Streets of Rage.
hopefully they'll do something about their current new franchise like Binary Domain, End of Eternity(collaborate Tri Ace for the sequel), Valkyria Chronicles(where the hell is 3 for west as well as 4???),Bayonetta(please Bayonetta 2!!!), Vanquish(they still need to finish the story) and freaking Sakura Wars!!!!!
definitely excited for the Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown, Yakuza 5, and hopefully we get the new Shining Blade(it plays like Sakura Wars X Valkyria Chronicles)

Well I guess that completely kills my hopes of ever playing Valkyria 3 in English... Atlus or another localization company should buy the rights.
Vanquish and Sonic Generations are good games.
That Captain America game was at least decent.
Sad, they used to pull good games in it's majority.
