Sega to merge with Namco, eh?

[sonicVSmario]

Can you say Tekken VS. Vitural Fighter? I know I can! ;) Heck, its way better than the Sega and Sammy merger!

[Michael Bluth]

And Nintendo's gonna buy Capcom, yada yada yada.

THEY ARE?

[Kliq]

No, that was just a rumor.

Nintendo is real close with Namco and Sega ... if they merge that could result in many exclusives for Gamecube.

[coolwiteverybody]

Nintendo needs go on some Microsoft shit and start buyin out these companies.

And Sony's even closer.........

It's Virtua Fighter, not Virtual... but Tekken blows, so I'd hate to see a great series like VF together in a game with Tekken... Ew.

[MCKingKongMushi]

Me too. Namco could really mess up the Virtua Fighter series...but I would like to think good ole' Yu Suzuki wouldn't let that happen ;)

Sega needs to get bought out by MS. I'd like to see Sega make another console, but since that will most likely never happen (:(), I'd like to see MS buy them...so they have some money and can go back to making their amazing games.

Personally, I just like Sega to stop porting old games.

I'm sure I'm not alone on that one.

What do you talking about?!? They're giving you this brand new game: http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/categories/products/product.asp?pf_id=233908


Do you not see the "DX"?!?!?!??!?!??!

[PhixedDice]

You're right. I did not see the "DX". Silly me. :(

Although this game looks strikingly similiar to what I played 3 years ago... Hmm!

[Furry_Dice]

who do i post about? i don't understand what you mean.

[PhixedDice]

I think he means if you don't care about this particular rumor, why do you post about it...

But yes, it seems like every week someone is buying someone.. We should place bets on what next weeks "buyout" will be..

[Viper]

I've got $50.00 on Konami buying Midway.

[Prince]

Microsoft was supposed to buy all these people according to rumors:
Vivendi
Capcom
Sega
Midway
Konami
Nintendo
Square
Rockstar
Take Two

etc etc. You name it, theres been a rumor.

I never heard that one (Rockstar = owned by Take Two) :susp


I think the best one that was actually planned but fell through would have to be last year at E3, Microsoft was supposed to give Sega a crapload of money inwhich they would buy Square, and then Microsoft would then buy Sega (which would include Square). I don't give a rat's ass about Square, but hey, Sega!

it was posted Dec 2001 on gamespot. or jan 2002...something like that. After GTA3 hit it big.

[cheetahmanhood]

Today the news said it was more unlikely but it looked like sega was thinking about it, it would be cool if they merged together!
