[Cygnus X-1]

Quite a disappointing line-up.

 

[Combine]

This is definitely a real promising lineup. I'm definitely keeping an eye out for AvP, AP, Bayonetta and The Conduit.

EDIT: Ha! Complete opposite opinion

 

[Urban Scholar]

Definitely looking forward to seeing more on Alpha Protocol. Kinda bummed on no Yakuza 3 info though

 

[Lakitu]

No Aliens Colonial Marines? I'm sad.

 

[GhaleonEB]

This is definitely a real promising lineup.

Quite a disappointing line-up.

Perfect.

 

[YuriLowell]

Crtl+F= Shenmue.

SEGA FAIL.

 

[stuminus3]

Quite a disappointing line-up.

This is definitely a real promising lineup.

...come on now! :lol

EDIT: beaten like a ginger-headed step child.

 

[arstal]

VF5R or you don't exist to me Sega.

 

[Nakazato]

no yakuza 3 :\

 

[LiK]

that's it?

 

[Speevy]

This is an average lineup. It neither exceeds nor falls short of my expectations.

 

[jj984jj]

Can't wait to see more on Alpha Protocol and Bayonetta.

 

[Future PhaZe]

No Colonial Marines sucks but at least we have AvP.

 

[pakkit]

I'm looking forward to some of the playable demos, but hopefully they announced a few more partnerships at the show.

 

[cw_sasuke]

pathetic.(besides of bayonetta)...they better have some annoncments@e3

where is phantasy star zero ?

 

[stuminus3]

Hmm... seriously, where did all of Sega's internal Japanese development staff go?

Are they all working on Mario & Sonic?

 

[Emotions]

Where's 7th Dragon, Shining Force Feather and Culdcept DS ???

 

[MechDX]

Crtl+F= Shenmue.

SEGA FAIL.

MS is publishing why would Sega show it?

Spoiler

 

[billy.sea]

Looking forward to Bayonetta and Conduit.

 

[Scribble]

I'm curious: Did any Shenmue fan (Who knows full well that Shenmue is over) look at the title of the thread and just have the teensy weensy bit of hope that it'd be listed?

 

[Shiggy]

There should be some unannounced games like The Crucible: Evil Within developed by Silicon Knights.

 

[stawnkald]

no yakuza 3 :\

Hopefully it's a surprise...otherwise, fuck these guys.

 

[Wilsongt]

Well. Looks like no Shining Force Feather over here. Oh well. *goes back to playing the import*

 

[Die Squirrel Die]

It's not that the lineup is bad perse, there are a few interesting entries, but it's just seems so sparse.

 

[bumpkin]

There's still hope for a surprise announcement of Daytona for XBLA and PSN, right? RIGHT??

 

[K' Dash]

Bayonetta. That's all I need.

 

[jj984jj]

There should be some unannounced games like The Crucible: Evil Within developed by Silicon Knights.

I thought their project for Sega wasn't called The Crucible?

 

[SolidSnakex]

These pre E3 lists are always just "Here's a list of games we've already announced". The surprises won't show up until E3.

 

[Combine]

I'd guess the disappointment might partially stem from the lineup is primarily made up of Western developed titles. Other than Bayonetta and Mario and Sonic i think.

It is kind of sparse actually if you're looking for something else other than Western titles.

 

[Katana_Strikes]

Man they's been so many E3's where I've looked forward to Sega's line up greatly. Can't say the same this year.

Only off the list AvP I'd be interested in slightly. There'll be some suprises no doubt but the list doesn't fill me with hope.

The last E3 (2007?) Sega announced a new game every day, that was fun.

 

[revolverjgw]

Alpha Protocol could be my GOTY if it is what I think it is. I gotta see more.

 

[Cheesemeister]

Does anybody here have a Windwos PC?

 

[LiK]

I'd guess the disappointment might partially stem from the lineup is primarily made up of Western developed titles. Other than Bayonetta and Mario and Sonic i think.

It is kind of sparse actually if you're looking for something else other than Western titles.

i'm curious if all their XBLA/PSN titles will be saved for MS and Sony's own press conferences. they've released some excellent XBLA ports recently, there's gotta be more.

 

[Hobbun]

Damn, no VC 2 announcement.

Pretty disappointing line up, none of those interest me.

 

[Community Forum]

These pre E3 lists are always just "Here's a list of games we've already announced". The surprises won't show up until E3.

Bingo.

 

[Daante]

BAYONETTA is all that matters for me

 

[markatisu]

Quite a disappointing line-up.

Its OK , Mario and Sonic will sell enough to fund all of 2010's releases

 

[speedpop]

Trash all around, which is sad because their JP recent releases shit all over it.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Bayonetta

sogood.gif

VF5R or you don't exist to me Sega.

Okay, now you're dreaming. The console ports of VF5/VF5 Ver. C did poorly.
Seriously, you're making the Shenmue people sound sane.

 

[Y2Kev]

Looks like the aliens game was definitely ripped from Gearbox.

 

[Tiktaalik]

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games vs Vancouver 2010

FIGHT

 

[akilshohen]

These pre E3 lists are always just "Here's a list of games we've already announced". The surprises won't show up until E3.

I was gonna say that Daisy Fuentes title isn't even there.

 

[Mr. Durden]

I want them to announce a new different look for the Bayonetta lead character. I actually would be excited for the game if the look of the character would've been different.

 

[gutter_trash]

Bayonetta + Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games for me

 

[neojubei]

no yakuza 3 :\

Sadly no.

 

[Beer Monkey]

Alpha Protocol could be my GOTY if it is what I think it is.

Is a modern-day Mass Effect with spies what you think it is?

 

[Tonza]

Bayonetta and Alpha Protocol make this lineup good, if not great.
Hopefully some surprises are present too.

 

[Raide]

Bayonetta and AvP for me. Day 1!

 

[Tiktaalik]

Ouch yeah no Yakuza 3 depresses the hell out of me.
