Sega utvikler spill til PS2

Sony og Sega har nettopp offentliggjort en eksklusiv avtale om å levere 7 kjente SEGA-titler til PlayStation 2:

ôSpace Channel 5" series (2 titles)
ôK-Project (working title)"
ôVirtua Fighter 4"
ôF-355 Challengeææ (working title)
ôHead Hunter"
ôEcco the Dolphin"

Minst to av disse spillene kan forventes i handelen før julen 2001.

Spillene blir som sagt utviklet eksklusivt til PS2 av SEGA, som jo har forlatt harware markedet, latt Dreamcast i stikken, og nå vil utvikle til andre produsenters plattformer. Men SEGA er garantert ikke en dårlig partner - tvert imot! Dette er super-gode nyheter for PS2 fans verden over. Say yeah!

Chris Deering, President for SCEE uttaler i forbindelse med pressemeldingen: ææWe now have one of the best content creators in the world writing games for the most advanced Computer Entertainment system. It will be an exciting and winning combination not only for PlayStation 2 and SEGA but more importantly for our consumers. We are very happy to be marketing and distributing for SEGA and we cannot wait to take on this challenge.ææ

Yoshio Sakai, President og C.O.O. for SEGA Europe tilføjer: ôThese are very important titles for us. Our development teams are already working intensively to write the very best quality games exclusively for PlayStation 2. SCEE have demonstrated over the last 5 years that they are the best marketeers in the business and we are sure they will work their magic on these dedicated PlayStation 2 games.ææ
