Destructoid have noticed this post on NeoGaf detailing a leaked document from SEGA. The document was leaked and includes a lot of goodies. The biggest piece of gossip is that “SCEA wants to sell all PS2 titles on PSN (GTA Vice City/Sonic/etc)”. Similarly, “If [SEGA] provide a list of DC (Dreamcast) titles SCEA will let us know which ones they’re interested in having exclusively.”

Yes, you may now say “wow, I hope this is real”. Journalist Jim Sterling notes that he “tried the download link and it certainly comes from Sega’s own PR site,” so this could be legit. I certainly hope so. Go to the links to see the full list, or hit the jump. Your choice.

Pokémon Sunday, part of the TV section of the Pokémon monolith, has hinted that Nintendo are about to announce remakes of Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver. The show is going to announce something on next week’s episode, although at this point we don’t know what; but there is a theory that it will be for these two games. The show this week gave notice to two spherical decorations [see image], of the gold and silver variety.

Perhaps it’s nothing, but it’s interesting to speculate, especially when, like me, you’re of the opinion that Gold and Silver are the best in the series. Many think that remakes are pointless, but personally I welcome an update to these fantastic games.

We don’t believe you David Reeves. It would be kind of us to say that much of what you spout is exagerated, but now you, Mr SCEE boss, have more “news” for us. DICE’s promising first person adventure game, Mirror’s Edge, will be a timed PS3 exclusive. Read more…

Sega has announced its Leipzig GC line-up, and they’re trying to make a song and dance out of Samba De Amigo. More interesting is the promise of the world premiere of a new title and the attendance of Headstrong Games on their booth.

Headstrong, rebranded from Kuju Entertainment at the end of July, is working on an as-yet-undisclosed Wii title for Sega, so it’s a fair bet they are not turning up to Leipzig just to soak up the atmosphere or see how it compares to E3.

So what could it be? Much as I would love it to be another Shenmue, it seems like it might be another Dreamcast classic – Jet Grind Radio. Sega filed this handy trademark, dated 24 July 2008, which gives us hope that they’re returning to the franchise.

They promise we’ll find out for sure before the event. Here’s the rest of their line-up, sadly devoid of any other Dreamcast greats begging for a resurrection: Read more…
