Rumours

Shenmue 2 - AM2
With the Dreamcast version being released this December, the rest of the Shenmue saga will need to continue on another console, and AM2 seem to like Sony a lot.
Phantasy Star Online Version 2
With PSO appearing on the GameCube and PC, its been roumoured that all consoles might be brought together in the online world of PSO.
Skies Of Arcadia 2 - Overworks
Its been pretty much confirmed that a Skies Of Arcadia sequel is on the way, yet with the Dreamcast practically dead in Japan, it makes sense to bring it to another console.
