Sega's TGS 2008 Lineup UPDATE

Third out of the gate for TGS lineup announcements (at least as far as I am aware) is Sega. There are no surprises in the list (of course), but they have also mentioned the lineups of their partner companies (which I will also list RPGs from).

Take a look and prepare to be not-surprised!

???-on Titles
7th Dragon - Nintendo DS
Blazer Drive - Nintendo DS
Culdcept Saga DS - Nintendo DS
Garnet Chronicle - PSP
Infinite Space - Nintendo DS
Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer 2 - Nintendo DS
Phantasy Star Portable - PSP
Phantasy Star Zero - Nintendo DS
Shining Force Feather - Nintendo DS
World Destruction - Nintendo DS

If you haven't heard of Culdcept Saga DS or Blazer Drive before, I apologize for not covering them. Honestly, they looked too boring to bring to your attention. Intrested parties may view their official sites to see what they're all about here [Culdcept Saga DS] [Blazer Drive].

Below are their partners' scheduled titles that fall into the RPG category:

???-on Titles
Item Getter - 5pb. Games - Nintendo DS
Knights in the Nightmare - Sting - Nintendo DS
Mimana: Iyar Chronicle - Kogato Studio, GungHo Works - PSP
...and several visual novel games.

The partners' titles are actually slightly more intriguing to me than Sega's actual lineup, especially since I've never heard of some of them before. Interestingly enough, GungHo doesn't list their other 2 upcoming RPGs for show at TGS (Ragnarok Online DS and an obscure SRPG called Hero's Saga Leavatein).

You can check out Sega's TGS lineup list here, and their partner's lineup list here. (May require a working understanding of Japanese.)

It would be nice to get an RPG announcement for a not-portable system, but I won't hold my breath. I guess I'll just be happy enough to see Bayonetta.

How about you? Anything you're looking forward to from Sega?
