Ryo Hazuki in Sega All-Star Racing

[Jaseman]

I will be angry if he is excluded from the Wii version

This game, on another note, has really good graphics. i hope the Wii version isn't just a ps2 port.

Honestly - this is a joke. Are Sega trying to rub it in our faces?

Who really cares for this game, honestly......about 10 poeple in the world. Who wants Shenmue 3 - or at least some news on it.......ALOT of people!!!

Sort it out Sega.......

What I think they are doing by including Ryo in Sega All-Star Racing is that they want people who haven't played the Shenmue games to get aquainted with the character. Then after this game comes out they are going to Shenmue 1 & 2 on XBLA / PSNetwork. Maybe even the Wii online service too!

It's good marketing. I think they call it predictive programming. Either way I'm just happy that a new generation will at least enjoy Shenmue.

um, there isn't any shenmue on psn that I'm aware of

I dunno, I like Kart games, so I was gonna pick this one up before I even knew Ryo was gonna be in it. It just adds to the factor, SEGA wants to please their fans, but don't want to spend $50 million dollars on Shenmue III and then have nothing come out of it. I wouldn't make Shenmue III either if I was them to be honest. I would like to think that it's a sign of things to come though. I would not expect a re-release of Shenmue 1&2 but rather I would expect a release of a full Shenmue game covering all the chapters. That's what I would do were I SEGA.

Shenmue 2 was chapters (xbox release). Never played shenmue 2 on the almighty DC. So idk why anyone would expect chapters for any shenmue for xbla or psn, just pay for full game. But with everyones speculation I doubt if any remakes or any ports come out at all , their just adding ryo to a game to make up funds lost imo. If anything. Sega disbanded their best teams, and you all say ' buying power is key'. But I know most if not all of you are buying war games from EA, more detailed or whatever from the last one. So don't bitch if your feeding the machine.

And not to start a bitch fest but... all you old skool gamers about there's no thought in new skool games, ur all buying EA. If not that you bitch about sonics new games on 3D, the best sonics are just a run through' oh they were the best' and the new ones suck 'oh I never had to think about the spinball fuckers moves before his new game sucks'. Well wtf, you guys bitch and you're all what you bitch about the gaming scene.. am I wrong...?

And the coolinator just seems like a thief in iso terms and cheapness etc(god knows who else has these ideals). So that don't help shit, y'all got the attitudes of what y'all seem to hate(most of you).
