This guy [Link316] is/was a huge pro-Sony troll over at GameFAQs. I've already got him on ignore.

GOOD IDEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Multiple fanbases don't hurt so long as the original fanbase gets the goodies too (see Sonic Heroes). But if PSU were PS2 only, then its a fucking moronic decision.

It's probably not going to end up being exclusive, but the PS2 will likely be its lead platform.

In terms of development? Hmm, maybe, maybe not. You know how Sonic Team is with the GC...

To multiple fanbases? And if PS = PSU then they're making an extremely good decision by sending it to a different platform.

Agreed, Sonic & PSO should've been everywhere from the start. Then again, it seems Sega's only spreading out former GC exclusives, when stuff like Virtua Fighter, Shinobi, Soccer Tsukurou, Panzer Dragoon and Sakura Taisen should probably be getting the same treatment...

Good thing Sonic Team doesn't exist anymore, huh?

Only Shinobi and VF are the ones from that list that I think could work well as a multiplatofrm game. They should end up being multiplatform next gen when they get around to VF5 and hte next Shinobi.

Both Soccer and Baseball Tsukurou should probably migrate also. Baseball in partucular would probably be an easy extra 100k on GameCube (looking at how Konami's baseball games perform). And Panzer Dragoon needs to migrate from XBox if it ever wants to come close to matching the success of the Saturn installments.

I'm still a little surprised VF4 didn't get ports after the year long exclusivity contract ended (an XBox version was even started at Anchor at one point iirc). Missed opportunity there imo, VF4Evo should've gone to all 3. Look what a high profile multiplatform release did for SC2 and MKDA....
