How did you hear about Program E?
My brain contains 43347 categories, but not one that matches your last input.
Perhaps I'm just expressing my own concern about it.

shenmue? who gives a flying rats @$$...

no, they aren't going to be exclusive to anyone, but if they did, it would be nintendo. remember, monkey ball 3 is coming out, that is all that matters!!!

so my guess, nintendo and sega start sleeping together and become second party (that's why nintendo ditched SK) **shrugs** a theory

It's funny because at the time when I posted that for some reason I had Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive in mind as a couple of the games Sega has made for Xbox, but of course those are made by Tecmo... *smacks self in head*

Now that I think about it I think the most likely second/first party pairing would be Sony... I think they've been biggest with the PS2... Maybe... Why do you think it would be Nintendo?

But I dunno... It could be them entering the console business again, but why? They got out of it because it cost them a ton of money... Getting back in could be like sending the company off to face CERTAIN DEATH!!!!!!!!!!!

No need for companies to 2nd party with Sony because 3rd parties can just create a p.o.s. game and the mainstreamers will buy it and become an instant million seller.

Re: Sega Hype
 
If Sega does indeed unleash a new console, I'd think I'd buy it out of support if nothing else. How I long for another Genesis era, woe is me.

here's a SEGATON to think about


Sega is re-entering the handheld business....

the announcement was leaked that there is going to be a merger between SCEA and Sega.

^ the above isn't confirmed yet But I have a strong belief that Sega and Sony will INDEED merge, because my uncle in Japan says Sega and IBM is working with Sony present-day to complete the PS3 system. So i wouldn't be surprised that they merged... just so they can both profit from PS3 sales, and exclusivity of Sega games.... NBA2k5!

Just get a PS3.

Re: Sega Hype
 
If anyone is concerned about money, there is going to be 2 version of the PS3 console,

PS3-G and PS3-X and the explanation following will make it more clearer for you guys.

PS3-G : Strictly for gaming and nothing more priced under $250.

PS3-X : Basically a next generation home system including PS3 gaming, network abilities, harddrive, cd-r burner, and all the goodies priced at $450-$600.

Anyone who is a die hard, tried and true PS fan will want the PS3-X, and anyone who just wants to experience the games exlusive for PS3, can just buy the G model.

You seem to pretend like you know things...

Although two versions of the PS3 would be a neat thing...

Actually, I think it would be a failure on par with the 32X or the 64DD.
