RYO RETURNS! Sonic & Sega racing!

[Crimson Ryan]

She should just jump out, crazy taxi style.

They could of had Chai jump in and steal her?

[[mYLES]]

Just make her disappear when he goes in forklift mode, who cares? That would have been cool.

[MiTT3NZ]

Lift her up with the fork, and when you crash, she goes flying and splatters on the track, GTA style.

[ThyDarkAngel]

The Chai idea would have worked in such a good way.

This interview with Steve Lycett was released about a week ago, and he talks a lot about Ryo being in the game.

I don't understand how they got the Shenmue assets from AM Plus, because the development team of both games was AM2, regardless of where Suzuki was at the time. Unless, at one point a new Shenmue game was in development by AM Plus. Hmm...

[Riku Rose]

I thought AM2 is AM Plus they just had a name change. Most likely wrong.

[LawXiu]

AM2/AM plus, maybe he just said the wrong thing or maybe we don't understand the way Sega's devisions are structured. They still didn't show any new footage of Ryo though. Nice to see so many old characters are not forgotten.

shame they took Nozomi out of the game.It would be fun to have her on the back of the motorcycle.

[Peter]

I always smile when people talk about our (or "the forums") reaction. It was like OH MY GOD the day it was finally announced. I still have hope for Shenmues future. I said it before and il say it again... Ryo Hazuki in this game can only be good for the series.

Has it been stated if Nozomi could be avaliable as a DLC, or completely out of that equasion aswell?

I would of thought she's completely gone. If they were able to have her with Ryo in the first place then she would be. DLC should focus on more Sega characters. ToeJam & Earl have been mentioned, and NiGHTS hasn't been confirmed yet..

Ofcourse the game has to sell well first for this to happen

[Jokatech19]

^ LOL @ Toe Jam and Earl. Its amazing how Sega will recreate and invent down to the crappiest of their ideas before they touch a Shenmue title again. So immature. It's like the 5 year old who stands outside in the freezing cold to spite his parents. LOL

New character announcement trailer for BD Joe from Crazy Taxi and Ulala from Space Channel 5. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4oeZ7-YSBg

You can see a hovering battleship, but it's not Skies of Arcadia, it's a Monkey Ball level. Seventeen seconds in though, could that be the Shenmue level? Looks like Dobuita..

[willmame]

I'm not sure, but you could be correct!

!!!

[ThyDarkAngel]

Hard to say if it is or what it is, but goods adds, Ulala and Crasy Taxi.
A Skies of Arkadia add, say a level, would be great...
