A little out of left field, however, is news of Sega reviving Skies of Arcadia. The sky pirate RPG was criminally overlooked, despite releases on both Dreamcast and GameCube, but apparently Sega been quietly preparing a sequel to the swashbuckling adventure.

Wow, great rumors. I had no idea God of War 3 or Gears of War 2 were coming.

I wonder who is making Skies of Arcadia, that would be the bigger question rather than which system it is for.

Traveller's Tales is my guess.

I'm pretty sure all of these rumors are true because it seems these days if it's a rumor, it's true

No Reiko Kodama, no sale.

Kodama :bow :bow :bow

And in the days of Sonic RPG, NiGHTS 2, Street Fighter 4, Contra 4, a new Bionic Commando, Sonic in Smash, anything goes, so I'm willing to bet this isn't a rumor. If there's ONE game that I don't want SEGA to fuck up, it's this one.

Probably the PS3.  Capcom seems to be the only Japanese company smart enough to realize that this gen won't be dominated by Sony.

.......

Skies of Arcadia is a Sega game.

er.. That's why I said SOA2 probably will be on the PS3.  Sega is dumb.

No Wii if true, please.  Either of the other two.

JRPGs are least 60% presentation.

What good teams does Sega have left, anyway? AM2 (they did VF5, right?)? I guess there's that team that did Yakuza (unless that's also AM2). Anyone I'm missing?
Title: Re: SKIES OF ARCADIA 2?!
Post by: Himu on October 19, 2007, 12:21:27 AM
AM2, the team that did Yakuza is made up of former Sega teams such as Amusement Vision and Smilebit, there's also the team that did Sakura Taisen (who's doing valkyrie of the battlefield).

That's off the top of my head. Of course, theres sonic team but they don't exist anymore in my eyes.

who's the team that does the sports games like virtua tennis? I haven't played the new one so i dunno if that's am2

Seems Overworks got absorbed into Wow Entertainment. So at least they're still there in some form.

The Virtua sports series is done by Hitmaker.

Much pain to 1up if this is just to create hysteria. I would like them to go cel shaded with the sequel. A little Captain Harlock looking action. 

Overworks did the original right? Do they still even exist? edit: Ah they were absorbed into other studios.

It could be on PS3 and use Sega's engine for Valkyrie of the Battlefield, that would be sweet.

or it could be on the 360 and have superior graphics

I predict Wii and that it will look worse than its DC predecessor.



I really don't get the love for this game, is it because it was on two systems that had no other RPGs? If it was on PS2 it would've been quickly forgotten for being mediocre.
