Sega's "explosive" E3 announcement
Hmmm Super Monaco GP for cell phones, that's pretty rad. I need to get that game for my Genesis, I used to play the hell out of it back in the day (actually, I think my cart was bad; I got all the way up to the last team and it would always crash from that point).
Some sources are saying the big announcement was in fact the Matrix thing... if so, that's pretty damn lame.

I couldn't agree more. I was hoping Sega had more class then to stoop to the level of hyping some piece of garbage for a little bit of attention. Guess I was wrong. But they were right, I never would have guessed something so damn lame. Explosive? Only to Sega's chances of ever being a leader of innovation again. Once a company starts pulling crap like this, it's no better than the rest. Sega, unless you have something else up your sleeve like a console or Shenmue III, you can become solely a pachinko machine maker for all I care.
Sega was one of the last hopes we had for original and creative games. With companies like LucasArts becoming a mainstream, one-trick-pony, EA relying pretty much on it's sports games, and countless others going the way of the dodo, there's not much hope. For shame Sega, for shame.

Man... I'm going to keep hoping they have some ace up their sleave.
Oh, well. The announcement was bound to disappoint the moment speculation grew so widespread.
At least a new Phantasy Star game is being made. This year's E3 is going pretty well so far.

To be fair to Sega all this hype came from one email, and the fact is they retracted how big the announcement would be before E3. Just read my news post last week, where I posted a link to this article:

Uh, by whom exactly? I don't think anyone cares that much about a publishing deal for a (mediocre-looking) game that has already been in development for four years, with the possible exception of hardcore Matrix fans.. and they mostly disappeared after the last two movies. Granted, the amount of hype that this generated was beyond Sega's control, but still, they should have known better. Now they look like the boy who cried wolf.
