ok here we go
Shenmue was meant to be in 6-8 parts and there are rumors that it is being made for 'a' console with the first 2 in a bundle (so not the XBox..cross-fingers pls be CUBE, pls be CUBE)
The dreamcast failed because too many people had Playstations so PS2 was their choice, there was about 3 european adverts for dreamcast games (loads in Japan DC did well there) and it didn't have a DVD player which gave everone the impression that graphics couldn't be as good as the PS2's.
Sega did bugger it up as backwards compatability would have helped and prolonged its life hell the Saturn was a damn good console but the same problems the DC had the Saturn had also. The Saturn was better than the PS in most ways but didn't have the financial backup that Sony had to gain 3rd party support lowering the quantity of games this then followed through to the DC. Sega like Nintendo left Europe to its own devices and didn't put out, as already mentioned, enough adverts allowing Sony to capitalise the market.
wow, im knackered after that I cant think of anything else at the moment.
EDIT: i have to agree with the above sentiment the PS2 compared to all the other consoles is s*** the only reason ive got one is my sister has the Eyetoy and Dancemats, FF is about the only thing I play on it.
