I've got to say that I have to agree with you Ted, I have
definitely been proven wrong about my impression of post Dreamcast Sega.
From Outrun 2 + 2006, House of the Dead 3, Sega GT 2002, Spikeout, and
even their published stuff has been pretty good, especially the Otogi
games, and then Yakuza, Shinobi, VF4 and Evo and a few others on the
PS2, Sega has been about the same as they always were, but more
profitable. I also saw a list of releases from Sega multiplatform
since 2001 and it was huge, easily matching Sega from the Genesis days
which was their former peak. They just don't poor their heart into
system sellers like they used to, that's the biggest major lack we're
noticing.
