What AAA games does Sega have? I don´t Vanquish or Bayonetta are AAA.


neither of those were created by sega,  sega publihed them. those games were by platinum which are a japanese team


I am aware of that. But what AAA titles has Sega?

Console? Yakuza, Valkyria Chronicles (but not Sega Europe)

PC: Football Manager, Total War

Valkyria Chronicles was an AAA game? I don´t believe that, neither was Total War, the other two perhaps.


Isn't triple a only mean of production value of a game rather than it's quality.

For what I know an AAA game is a game with a big budget, and I don´t think Valkyira Chronicles had such a big Budget

Yea,that's exactly what I was trying to say.Most jap games dont really have big production values

I hope someone picks them up. Preferably a console manufacturer. Given Sony's finances that would leave MS and Nintendo.

 

This would be a good time for Nintendo to buy Sega and let them develop new Nintendo IP and let sega take all the risks.

What would they do with their big PC franchises? I see MS as a much more likely candidate, if they care at all about PC gaming anymore.


I don't see any reason to stop the production of PC games under Sega's name, it's not like Nintendo has never made any PC games before.

What, why not? Total War is probably their best franchise in terms of consistent quality. Valkyria Chronicles is an AAA quality game as well.

AAA games are high quality games with high budget. Never played Total War so I cant tell anything about the quality but the budget of this game wasnt that high thats for sure, and same is for Valkyria Chronicles and I didnt really like it but thats just my opinion.

The budget of Total War is not high? I'm pretty sure they have a pretty big budget compared to their other games. They are extremely expansive, with great graphics, and a great multiplayer. If Total War is not AAA then nothing Sega makes is AAA.

Thats what I was saying.
