The company also revealed that it is underway with two new GameCube Sonic titles including another in the Sonic Adventure series and Sonic Mega Collection. The firm will also release Sonic Advance 2 for Game Boy Advance, it noted." This has me excited for a few reasons. Naturally, I'm happy that more Sonic games are coming to the Nintendo platforms (though it was definitely to be expected). However, this also seems to contradict a rumor report made by EGM. They said that apparantly SEGA is going to scrap the "Adventure" series of Sonic games and make more games like the Genesis classics. This came from the same report on how Rare is supposed to be multiplatform. Maybe they were wrong about Conker's sequel on XBOX? Ok, so that's just speculation right now, but it gives me a little more hope.

Oh. My 'Swiss Cheese Memory' forgot to include on my PS2 list: Grand Theft Auto 3: Vice City.
I don't consider it a good sign if they haven't yet showed anything of the game and its supposed to come out this year.

It's either a marketing ploy to play down expectations, or Rockstar knows Vice City is simply not original enough to get good previews accross the board.
