@New Forms Valkyria Chronicles may have been stuck in Japan anyway. At least, III has been. And personally I wasn't the biggest fan of II, this franchise works way better on PS3 where it doesn't have to be so streamlined.

I think the fact that they kept Sonic is a great indicator of why they are in this position really.

Why the fuck didn't they merge with Namco when they had the chance? Sega Namco would have been. the. shit.

Sega Namco would have been. the. shit. Pac-Man and Sonic: Eat and Run The awesome games would have programmed themselves.

Makes me feel bad that I have been delaying getting Space Channel 5 part 2 on PSN. Then I remember I bought Sonic Adventure and I feel less sad. Though I wouldn't call that a win. Sucks for the employees who have lost their jobs, I hope they land back on their feet. And I hope that Jet Set Radio HD thing is still coming!

I'd be interested to know how many of this huge lay-off is of executives that make $250,000+ vs. people who make games. Game wise, after the travesties of the last few Monkey Ball games I'm almost happy to see the poor franchise finally be laid to rest. RIP Monkey Ball. You were absolutely and utterly amazing once...

@kriswrightWin! @HinphI wondered that too when they merged with Sammy. From an American standpoint, the Sammy merger made zero sense since they had little presence in the US (but Pachinko is pretty big overseas apparently) to speak of, if any.

As long as the Total War games keep coming I could care less. Sega has been horrific for a long, long time.

While IGN is dead to me, that news, if true, is certainly worthy of a
He's the last of the old regime, right? Or is Fran still hiding about somewhere? Yeah, Fran is still around. He's the video director. He's probably not going anywhere.

Well bummer. So gone permanently is Vectorman, Eternal Champions, and even Streets of Rage? Yeah, older classics, but ones that, if done right, could've seen a decent revival. Ah well.

I am sad for Virtua Fighter. I know no one else really cares (why are there not many fighting game fans here at Negative World?!?) but that franchise is pretty awesome. *WAS* pretty awesome.

@GameDadGrantI really liked Virtua Fighter; playing every entry ending with the one for Dreamcast (though I vaguely remember that one). Virtua Fighter 2 (for Saturn) was my favorite, playing the royal heck out of it. Akira was my favorite character (generic, I know), with Lau, Sarah, and Shun being close seconds. Though, they were all great to play as. However, I couldn't stand Jeffrey - that brute! The music was great (for the time and genre) and the play control simple and effective. I liked that it was a fighter without projectiles, mad combos, and other such things to bog down the experience.
