Sonic Adventure 2 is awesome and a widescreen version sounds awesome. I understand why people woudlnt like it though.

nights is a good re-release as its never been re-relased and its not like the saturn is easy to find or emulate. I wont be buying it though.

I know a lot of people like jet grind so good on their part too.

SEGA shouldnt be hated for re-relasesing these games as they make sense for newer games to re-release. now saying sega hasnt released any full games of note in the last year or so...yea i have no defense for that. Theyre just a different company now with different goals i guess

Ahem... Shogun 2: Total War... ahem....

yeah but thats not really sega. Creative assembly gets the creds for that.

*shakes head* How many times can Sega bamboozle fools into buying old games over and over again?

This trailer reminded me of the opening to the 360 version of Burnout Revenge.

That's not stopping SEGA from claiming Total War as one of their core franchise IPs.

I ADORED Sonic Adventure 2 Battle when it came out - I still can't believe that Sonic the Hedgehog ended up on Gamecube before Mario. Man; mind blowing. I'm relatively sure the game isn't technically any good though - those Sonic Adventure games have terrible engines. So many collision problems and camera issues. Sonic Team just built games badly, all the way up until Sonic 2006. Still SA2 is a fun, good-looking game in spite of technical problems... at least 2/3 of it. The Sonic/Shadow stages were always pretty good (although, compared to modern Sonic games like Generations, I'm certain they're not nearly as compelling), but also the Tails/Robotnik levels with the mechs and the Panzer Dragoon style lock-on mechanic. Good stuff. Dumb, simple... but fun. I'll probably pick it up again.

As for Jet Set, I'll buy it... but meh. I'd rather see a complete HD remake that combined Jet Set and Jet Set Future's content into one game. This first game innovated and did it first, but Future refined the formula so much it's hard to go back. For one thing, they got rid of that stupid stage timer. Like in Tony Hawk, when they added the manual and revert? It's why the HD Tony Hawk remake that came out recently added in the manual and included stages from Tony Hawk 2. Because I want to see Jet Set Radio Future HD, and a Jet Set 3, I'll support this.

And NiGHTS? Never played it. Played Journey of Dreams though, and enjoyed it despite a serious design flaw (the casing for the analog sticks on the Wii Controllers have those notches at 45 degrees, but the rings in the stages are not oriented at 45 degrees, so you're constantly correcting for it. It hurts your fingers). It was pretty, it was simple and fun, it sounded great, and it was different. Have been wanting to play the original for quite some time now... I almost bought a Saturn from a roommate in college to do so. I'm DEFINITELY picking this up on Steam.

Sega needs to make NEW games like this. Flashy, colorful, fun, easy to pick up and play - take that arcadey way of thinking and apply it to new digital games, Sega. I'm hoping Hell Yeah is the first game of that type from "The New Sega". The one who's focusing on digital games.

Sorry Sega I'm confused, are you specifically marketing this game to those individuals that plugged their Dreamcast in to a 12 inch black and white TV?

Soooo stoked for Nights.... up there as one of my favourite games of all time... a much misunderstood game - Most people completely missed the point that it was a side scrolling racing game, all about getting the best line through the course and doing as many laps as possible (and getting back to the pits) before the timer hit zero... such a buzz

JSRF is pretty awesome, NiGHTS is okay, and SA2 is pretty bad. Oh well. It's too bad, since I had some good memories of SA1-2 when they came out, but returning to them now, they're pretty mediocre overall and the the non-speed levels in SA2 are very, very bad. Like those Tails/Eggman Walker levels? What the fuck were they thinking?

SEGA should just make a new Chao Garden game for PSN/Steam/XBLA and be done with it.

Soni Adventures 2 was some of the most fun I had. Making Chaos was fun. That game had one of the best soundtrack ever.

Haha, i forgot about this.

I can't speak for JSR or Nights, but I remember liking SA2 back when I was younger. Though as bad as those treasure hunting levels were, I WILL say this in that segment's defense, you could beat up and break omichoas in those parts. There, I just gave you all the one decent thing about the treasure hunting levels. Oh and about Sega and Total War:

Aw, hell yeah. I can't wait to play Nights and Jet Set for the first time ever, and- the hell with it, I'll buy SA2 once again!

SA2 is hot poop and Nights ain't much better. JSR is a good game, though.

When is Skies of Arcadia hitting the networks? thats what i want to replay

"We were holding back the real experience for over a decade, the whole failed console thing was just part of our creative marketing strategy!"

Man, that blocky shot of Sonic from Adventure 2 really doesn't scream "Quality HD Presentation" to me.

I remember Sonic Adventure 2 being awesome when I played it, but I'm afraid to find out how well it aged....

1 out of 3 ain't bad.

"Play them again for the 1st time!"

Ugh.

That's not even accurate in Sonic Adventure 2's case. Fucking Sega.

I've had good memories of these games when i first played them. However, JSR was a really short game if I remember correctly, I only wanted to race Chaos in SA2, and I think it is best to leave Nights into my dreams. If they made JSRF a downloadable title, I think i'd be game for that. That or just megamix the two games together.

Sonic adventure 2 is easily the best 3D sonic

Awesome!

Will gladly play Nights and JSR again for the nostalgia... FOR MY MID-20s. Fuck I'm old. Maybe I should get a career or something.

So is the licensed music from Jet Grind Radio going to be cut? The Hideki Naganuma stuff is still good but it'd be cool to have all the licensed stuff in as well.

Sonic Adventure 2 was a piece of garbage. The first one had problems but it was fun and the Sonic stages were the best. The music was spot on. But with 2, they just went into the, lets add more characters and keep this attempt at deep storylines going, instead of going back to the tried and true formula of just collecting the chaos emeralds. Fuck Shadow.

But, better Chao Garden.

JET GRIND RADIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The only one I care about.

My childhood was a lie... :/

So they're going to hold back the SA2 battle content for extra money like they did with the SADX stuff for Sonic Adventure's re-release.

Fuck you in the ass, Sega.
