i don't think that they made this decision because of the west market .
the actual theme of Yakuza and the Japanese Settings has no market potential in US or Europe .  that was always the main problem .

Puhleese. Just because it has guns in it doesn't mean its foucused at the west. And the Yakuza has always had a counter culture presence in the west which is why sega called it that in the first place. Yakuza's real problem over here has always been with marketing and the lack of doing it properly. Same reason IMHO that ALPHA PROTOCOL failed. In fact I'm suprised its taken this long for them to include guns in the series considering yakuza seem to use them all the time in any tv show or movie based around their exploits. I think the real reason a shooter game or FPS hasn't gone down well in the east is because they never tried to implement a eastern theme/design ethic that the users in that market could relate to. If Sega didn't scrap FIFTH PHANTOM SAGA when they did who knows where the genre would be in the east. Prehaps VANQUISH and a couple of others from sega will break that deadlock.

About FPS, i know that SEGA canceled the game (ref. Famitsu), but in the US Patent and Trademark Office, the trademark relative is still LIVE.   BOH?!?

Because trademarks can have a five or ten year lifespan, depending on how much they registered the mark to last. Once it expires sega won't bother to reregister it if the game is definatly canned.

I have reason to believe most of Fifth Phantom Saga's concepts went into Sonic 06. I do not think they will be going back down that road again, but it is best we pray to Suzuki just in case.

Fifth Phantom Saga could have been a good game, it just didn't really fit in with Sonic. Just too much.

Something tells me the New Yakuza will take 80% of SEGA's showing.

I don't know how to extract flash files, wish i did.  Let someone at neogaf do it i guess.

Funny how the mystery games section is linking to End of Eternity and Valkyria 2.

Yeah I was about to say one links to EoE and another to Valkyria 2... but that cant be right.


So wait there is only 2 more spaces at the top for the 'big' games.
I'm sure Yakuza 5 is a 'big game'... So where does that leave Valkyria Chronicles 3, Phantasy Star Online 2, Virtua Fighter Final Showdown.

Not that any of them are announced... but I think they are highly likely.

Probably not, the reason i said that is if they potentially changed their minds and redid the game the trademark's lifespan would cover it just incase it expires and someone else took over the mark. But that usually happens to games whose mark's been dead for over ten years like Sega's CRACKDOWN and BODYCOUNT which got took over by someone else.

On a quick note games not considered big titles get a limited trademark register lifespan.Usually from the subsidaries.
