I totally agree with this. This was a joint effort between Sony and FromSoftware and I've heard that FromSoftware wanted to do another one which is why they eventually went with Namco Bandai when they made a deal to help fund it and localize it in the west.
Sony had plenty of time to release the already localized Chinese version into the west, but failed to do so and Atlus made all that money. Then as well as the game sold, you'd have expected Sony to get off their asses and secure a sequel, but it never happened. With well over a million sales in all regions, it's stupid that they didn't try to get another one developed and then publish it in the west themselves.
Also the launch line up thing. People might not agree with me on this, but the PS2 is the one console that had an good launch line up in my opinion. Armored Core 2, Evergrace, Eternal Ring, Kessen, SSX, Tekken Tag Tournament, Dead or Alive 2, and Timesplitters being all launch titles. I was a FromSoftware fan during that time because their games on PSX. I also like Koei's strategy games. You're right about every other system though, and I do mean every other system. Some were better than others, but yeah, none of them were really that great.
