very vague details

the way they showcased at E3,i was in doubt if SEGA even owned the franchise

 

i think if SONY pumps in money then surely they will own atleast SHENMUE 3 as a game period like they do with METAL GEAR SOLID1,FINAL FANTASY 7,etc

I never heard of sony owning these games...

SONY doesn't outright own them as they are properties of KONAMI,SQUARE ENIX and SEGA but had some funding or exclusivity deal,they have rights to it or own a part of it

 

its not anything like timed exclusivity deals

what about the steam version?  on steam the game is listed with:

© 1997,1998 SQUARE ENIX CO., LTD. All Rights Reserved.
FINAL FANTASY, SQUARE ENIX, the SQUARE ENIX logo, SQUARESOFT and the SQUARESOFT logo are registered trademarks or trademarks of Square Enix Holdings Co., Ltd.

There is no mention of Sony.  If Sony owned some of the rights to the game, wouldn't they have to say copyright SCEA or something along those lines?
