   Argh, you had to mention that last part didn't you!  If Sega does   
   release a compilation disk of their XBLA games I will surely buy it.   
   Outrun 2's disappearance is only a sign of what will eventually happen   
   with every online only game.   
      
   I'd personally like to see LA Machine Guns and Super GT in any form off   
   the Wii though.  For Naomi stuff, Planet Harriers would make my day.
