Yeah, I think the Sonic fanfic comment was the best on there. The Sonic boards on SEGA's forum are hilarious.

No idea. If i had to guess, its probably due to all the Shenmue hype talk/ expected announcement. It got turned into a hype thread rather than a discussion about all the trademarks that had been registered. Then again, what do they expect? If you put Shenmue news along side any other franchise, the Shenmue hype will easily overtake everything.

If you want to continue reading the trademark discussion, visit the Shenmue community thread.

Hah, I see their hype train has transferred stations. Hope the community thread doesn't get derailed as well.

I think it was the hype train. It was a bit out of control. Still no shenmue.com. At this point if it had been the victim of attack it would be back up. That's a positive. I think if Shenmue will be continued in some form they took down shenmue-online.com to prevent confusion. When was shenmue-online.com last online?

It was always online just like shenmue.com. Both of them got down at the same time. Shenmue Online 2 confirmed.

To add to the hype, could this possibly be a hint from Sony? Its a good acknowledgement, thats for sure!!

Always a good sign when the head of 3rd party productions acknowledges the Shenmue fanbase.

Contrast these two...

It does smack of arrogance, doesn't it? They may as well have titled the slide: Things we won't answer.

...and see the striking difference between the two gaming companies.

Who's getting the scorn and who's the love now?

The one who at least interacts nicely with the fans.

That slide image makes me boil up everytime I see it.....

Someone has GOT to get on board with Shenmue soon - it just feels like it's soon going to be impossible not too.

All the acknowledgement we've had in the last couple of years!!

I find it amazing how the person that left that tweet works for Sega of America. If he's asking for Shenmue from Sony, then i can only assume that SOA know nothing about the series coming back. Are they that disconnected from their Japanese office, or is this a sign that nothing is in the works?
