Here's the whole list, with interesting titles in BOLD

Lovely news. Cheers Yi.

You played NiGHTS: Into Dreams on the Saturn? It rawked.

Oh and a new Space Channel is not interesting news at all. The only interesting rhythm games coming out are Rock Band and Guitar Hero 3.

I hope that we get an English version of Yakuza 2 for PS2.

Virtua Fighter 5 is already out on PS3. 360 version coming in near future.

Yeah I didnt quite get why they would show VF5 on the TGS. Maybe to show of the 360 version or something to the japanese gamers, as it has many fans in Japan.

I havent played Nights. I never owned a Saturn. so that's a shame. I hear it's a great game which gives you a nice sensation of flying or whatever.

I personally didnt care much for Space Channel on the DC, but that had a lot to do with me having no rythm whatsoever. I just sucked at it

Damnit! It looks like I will be getting an X-360 and PS3 now. I hate money.

Shenmue 3.. Pfff.
I've never played Shenmue 1/2, would love to try it though

It's been confirmed that the Shenmue things coming to 360 are a hoax.

Yi-Long · Post by **Yi-Long** » 05 Aug 2007, 00:13

Who confirmed it and where?
It would suck if it was a hoax, although the list does look like a sega-fan's wet dream...

Samba di Amigo for PSP sounds a bit weird though...

Ah well... finger's crossed shenmue is coming... but if it isnt, I'm leading the pack of angry fanboys with torches to whoever started this rumour...

NeoGAF, amongst other game sites. It was hoax by some Korean site.

BTW... it COULD still be true. Microsoft announced they'll have a big announcement (yeah!) on wednesday, and is asking any press who might hear about the news beforehand, to keep it to themselfs.

This could ofcourse be the much rumoured pricedrop... but maybe it's the announcement of them scooping the exclusive rights to Shenmue.

How well did Shenmue do in Japan btw? Or did most Japanese people miss it because it was only on DC and (Part 2) on Xbox?

Well enough for games released on a failed console (DC).

Or did most Japanese people miss it because it was only on DC and (Part 2) on Xbox?

If they had ported both games to PS2 years ago, we'd probably have Shenmue 3 by now.

Gawd... this is the final straw! First no decent release of My Sassy Girl, and now THIS!? Time to bomb Korea!

Looks like the entire announcement is a hoax, so no Space Channel 3 for you Dutchie boy.
