I thought this thread was gonna be about how the gameplay is bad. Not the technical aspects.

A Devil May Cry ripoff from Sega... no chance in hell this will be good. Virtua Fighter 5 is really the only Sega game I've enjoyed this gen.

Valkyria Chronicles is another game worth noting, along with the Condemned series...


I never played Valkyria Chronicles nor do I have any interest in it. But I'll pretend its good anyway based on most reviews.

Condemned 1 and 2 were fantastic. You wanna know why? They weren't developed by Sega!

You saying Sega is a poor developer?


YES! At one point in time they were my favorite. I love their classic arcade games, I used to own a Genesis, Saturn, Game Gear, and I still have three working Dreamcast consoles.

When they went 3rd party the quality of their games weren't terrible but began to decline as time went on. Now a majority of them are just terrible. A solid title slips through the cracks on occasion, but they got to get their shit together. Some of my all time favorite IPs are becoming next gen shovelware.

For the record, I'm really looking forward to Phantasy Star Zero.

Seinfeld your off about Sega. I used to think the same way until a poster on another forum pointed this out me. Sonic Teams quality has gone to hell, not Sega on the whole. AM2 (Virtua Fighter 5), Amusement Vision (Yakuza series), Overworks (Valkyria Chronicles) are still making the same quality games they were during the DC era. It's just that Sonic Team pumps out multiple low grade titles a year and makes it seem like Sega on the whole has poorer software quality.


Like I said, on occasion a good game gets through. But VF5 wasn't anything fresh. Yakuza sucks compared to Shenmue. I haven't played nor do I have any interest for Valkyria Chronicles. Newest releases of their classic IPs have been mediocre or garbage. Sega just isn't doing anything innovative anymore.
